Default To all the (iway) flamers

First of all, let us not forget that ppl payed for this game, and therefor have the right to play it how they like. You don't like iway? Fine, but dont start flaming ppl for having fun playing a build which you dont like.

Example:
I like listening rapmusic. What? you like rockmusic? OMG, you're such an idiot!
Does that make any sence to you? I guess not.

Giving arguments why you think iway, or every other build for that matter, aint a good build, that's something we can all learn from. It might change the way how we want to play this game.

Regarding iway messing up rank. Appart from playing monk, virtually every profession is so damn easy to play. Just practise it for a day or so, and voila! You've learned how to play it.

Regarding coordination. Just listen to what the teamleader says. WTF is difficult about that? Stay in the wards, I'm using migraine on number 5, I have SS on me, bla bla bla. All of it is complete logical if you ask me.
I agree that playing iway is easier than balanced, but dont pretend as if balanced is so extremely difficult to play. It simply isn't.

Having that said, just enjoy this game and don't let others spoil it for you if they play it in a way you don't like.

I must agree that IWAY is messing up the rank system espically among coordinated teams.

I know many Rank 6-9+ iwayers that BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW in anything else. If you think you can emote under the bridge and that will get you in ranked teams with a balanced build your kidding yourself. I have been know to quit teams because a players sucks, refuse to play with certain people, or as of late only playing with people i know.

i understand that people can play iway and im not sure if it should be nerfed, but if i see someone iwaying a lot i dont play witht hem. they make the choice to play iway and i make the choice not to.

People would stop using IWAY if it stopped winning so much. SO if you don't like it, stop losing to it.


Any random collection of players can do well, and IWAY happens to just be a very good basic outline for a build that really has no set skillset. Thus, why spend 3 hours setting up when you can just IWAY it in 10 minutes, and still have a chance to do quite well.

Isn't that the point of a gimmick build? Take advantage of 1 aspect of the game and hope it is breaking enough to pull a win. In this case, the huge DPS warriors can put out.

Teams that ask you to emote just low-esteemed idiots who, just like you, Iway'd their fame.
Wow, this is just full of hypocrisy and contradictory statements.

"Teams that ask you to emote just low-esteemed idiots"

So what is it, are you an low esteemed idiot whose going to ask for his rank, and then reject him because hes not high enough rank?
Is rank good? bad?

While PvE is different from PvP, the skills remain the same. I'm going to ask, how did any monk get skilled? He wasn’t born good. He probably got practice in a team setting, or learned some “basics” from PvE. By refusing him into your team, and putting down PvE so easily, you are effectually asking for people to join the game Top Tier material.

You're just flowing with elitism, and not making much sense.

Not really so much what he thinks, as what you said.

EDIT: How did I know there would just be flaming here? Surely wasn't the words Defense and IWAY being used together.... /sarcasm

i am annoyed with some ppls views towards IWAY the skill not the build.

i use it in PvP sometimes as a wildcard skill when i am not sure wot else to take, and becasue of it i am normel able to last longer when other team mates so i can either res, get out of there or just conutine to kill :P

but as soon as ppl see u using the skill they are like OMG NooB skill never use that, even thou i find it to be a good life line when everything else fails.

main reason i don't thnik they like it is cos of IWAY teams that work around that skill. And sure that for the skill to work you need some one to die, but in most games you get some one like a team mate or an allie in GvG

i used IWAY with my knock down aftershock warroir build and it preety much owned casters that weren't prepered... but still ppl were like OMG...... even thou i was the only one alive..........
