What I dont understand is that ppl still believe they can start a topic like this, without it being closed for to much flame and IWAY-hate in it...

Bring up the dozer... and close the crap...

you should blame iway haters, which are like almost all of the gw population, for locked iway threads. they pile up all their whines, hate bout the build in a wholesome thread till it gets taken over and locked down.

not the fault of the thread starter here. he just wanted us to know that iway works for him still.

you basically did the same, just the other way around. just because one team beats another, doesnt mean the winning team is back from the graveyard? =P

im just not gonna comment it, theres no point. every build loses and wins at some point, also HA is full of noobs (heroway, anyone?) - you can probably farm fame with any sort of human group as long as people got a clue what to do. for me, however, IWAY remains pretty weak and easy to beat with most builds i play. but then, its really random anyways - you cant judge a build, just the players using it.

and omg, why do so many people complain about IWAY? does it beat the hell out of you or why are you moaning like mad? if you know counters, good, run them and refrain from flaming builds. my god :|

At least there was something to keep the lame holding builds (see paragon way, signet of mystical wrath spike) from getting to halls and holding for 10+ games.
Since Hero teams are so abundant these days holding is pretty much fame farming isn't it. What no nothing other than IWAY could be a fame farming build huh. It's funny that a build that isn't widely run anymore is still flamed at every opportunity

I'm not trying to be rude, but I have no idea what you are saying and why you quoted my post. NO one said IWAY was the only fame farming build. I wasn't flaming IWAY, on the contrary, I miss the fact that you had to bring IWAY counters while running a holding build, which would decrease the amount of utility you could have on an altar. Also, a decent OoA IWAY kicked teams out of halls if they knew what they were doing.
Now it is simply defensive holding team vs defensive team vs defensive team and people can go on lame holding streaks with overpowered and unbalanced characters.

Every build has counters.

Searingway, great, mantra of flame + ward against elements = pwned.
Thumpers, takes just 1 necro with spiteful/ price +spirit of failure. pwned.
Edenial? Take adrenaline.

Cant stop myself from bashing you, it's so easy to have a build that counter another build, but it's hard to have a build that counter most builds and can get u to hall and hold.

and adrenaline is not a counter for edenial, becoz 90% of the mesmers wont edenial you warrior lol. they work on casters especially monks, and there's no adren-based healing skill.

so what u said is pointless really.

yeah lol i cant believe people still say that you need ward against elements. Guys that ward sucks and you shouldnt be balling in it at all. You will take much more damage if you all ball in the ward than if you spread out and interupt key skills.

My apologies but my quoting of your post was not meant as a flame towards you. I bolded a specific part because other people have flamed IWAY in this post because it has the stigma of being a "fame farming" build, and because there is a real lack of competition in HA isn't that pretty much what the paragon holding build would be doing? Just fame farming off stupid AI teams. I'm not against the paragon build, IWAY, w/e you want to run, because in the end the game is about having fun. It's just boring seeing someone mention IWAY (such as the OP) and not too long after flaming starts.

Here's the difference.
Iway is an easy to play build which gets pwnt by good teams, and only beats newbie groups or good teams on a fluke.
Paragon-thumper is an easy to play build that beats almost everything. The searing flames idiots choose to get beat by it and give them the fame willingly.

In HA right now, searing flames is the iway, and gon-thumper is the anti-iway.

There aren't even ten maps, smart ass (unless you count vault or zaishen...). And we held more than 10 times and MATh actually held like 20+ times with b-spike (more than ur scrub b-spike guild ever did... iway scrubs better at b-spike than the b-spike scrubs themselves, gotta love that).

And btw, last time I faught you, you were in a bspike guild, ImK or something like that. You're name was ronin something and you talked as much **** as you do here on guru so I assumed it was you.

You might of beat me once or twice but I'm sure 9/10 times I faught you, you got raped. You couldn't even beat me with hex heavy build (which wtfpwns even the best IWAY teams if played even half decently). Cry more please...

Btw, why don't you put ur char name or guild name in ur guru profile? Back up your **** talking, newb.
This is not my real name for the last time, get that through your thick skull. I havent played tombs in months because its lame now. What I was saying in my innitial post was that you are very very sensitive about iway. Someone says its a fame farming build, you have to write a freakin essay in its defence and repeat over and over how math held 10 times with iway and 20 times with bloodspike.

News for you, bloodspike was even more noobish than iway and seven monkeys and a caller can hold with it. People bash bloodspike but you dont see the bloodspike noobs spending their whole day defending it like it was their pride and joy.

And btw, I did rape your iway team EVERY time I played you. You're my bitch so learn some respect for your superiors. I think you joined my balance team once but said you couldnt play anything but a trapper and necro lol. Youre an iway noob, iway whoure, iway scrub, pick one. You always will be one no matter how much you argue on these forums.

Thats just the way it is

This is a good thread, less flaming, more suggestions. I don't think anyone wants to read your trash.

EDIT, I realized this is the iway thread. Carry on

Then what is your IGN? Back up your **** talking. I'm not sensetive about IWAY, I don't really care that some pre-pubscent teenager thinks hes cool for bashing someone on the internet. It seems you're writing just as much as me so there goes your "essay" point.

Prove it. You won't tell us your IGN. You won't provide screenshots. You have no evidence whatsoever other than some post which you pulled out of your ass. Now even if you did beat me (which I doubt, I'm not claiming I'm unbeatable, I lost to good teams all the time, but not nub teams), why would I respect you? Wow, you beat me at a video game. Thats not going to gain you my respect. Maybe go through puberty then I might gain some respect. No, I don't think I've ever played with you and I have never said "I can only play a trapper or necro" so way to pull more **** out of your ass. Insult more, I don't really care.

If you want to continue this arguement just PM me a vent ip and we can discuss. But I doubt you'd have to the balls to talk the **** you type. Or wait, your mommy doesn't let you talk to strangers on the internet? Aww, tough luck.

you got your fame from IWAY therfore you can not argue when they said they beat you because its quite obvious that IWAY gets beat by just about anything

also I laughed my friggin ass off when I was watching a couple of players talking about you in the American districts saying you were a good player
