HWay was designed to beat IWAY tbh...
I remember it being called "anti-iway"

the original SS and ward against foes/Grasping works like a charm. pretty digits.

an SS shuts it down so easily..

or when played balance just ball up and AoE... its impossible to expain to your IWAY team not to attack when opposite balance team is balled up.

they lack common sense.

QFT- ive been running iway the last few days n only 1 or 2 people from your party run out of the AoE then the rest complain they have died.

Vamp spirit necro's (not sure of exact builds) N/A can roll iway in about 10 seconds.

faced vamp spirit necro's only once when played balance. its true they can beat iway easily. Degen, health stealing..

but we pwned them in burial mounds i recall. maybe they just sucked xD

it were 8 N/A and we were like wtf? where is the healing? the hp regen and health stealing was appearently not enough to keep them alive..

that build needs some modding if possible.

I guess that build is made for things that are fragile until they get a chance to build adren.

That 8 n/a stuff at first I thought was a joke build, like when people did edge bomb with a bunch of fire eles.

Then everyone started running it. If this is what people use to farm thier fame then I am concerned for the mental health of a lot of people.

I mean, at least iway took effort to kill the warriors sometimes, this lifesteal spam is a nice joke of free fame.

So pretty much anything apart from Iway can roll this?

N/As roll pretty much everything if you have a group that knows how to play it. I only tried it once, when it was really new, but we rolled all but a few groups who actually changed their play styles to fight us. Pretty boring build to run, but it was good for the lulz when nobody expected it.

The thing is though, if both teams are competent, you probably won't win more than a couple times with N/As because they're most effective when people have no idea what they are, and how to counter them. Good teams will shut you down without too many problems once they know what you're doing. Shit builds like that show who the good players are, because the good players will adapt to the build their facing even in the first minute or two of the match, whereas you can roll bad players with the same stuff over and over again. IMO, the only time a shit build is actually fun to run is when it's fresh and original enough to beat almost anyone, just because they've never seen it.

So seen as most people are running anti-iway or the N/A build (heard people call it bway) anyone for caster-hate?

HAing a bit over the past few days I can say that the current meta in HA is probably the worst in history. Something needs to be done fast by Izzy, the current HA meta is as retarded as it can possibly get and it keeps getting even worse. It has come to the situation when people don't even bring ANY sort of utility- snares, interrupts, hex removes, condition removes, speed boosts, soc. They don't even pretend to be able to fight beyond Burial. They farm the first 3 maps againt other teams like them (I can't see how that new iway joke can beat anything that isn't randomway or other iways).
