the discusion seems to be getting abit off topic, but i can't see what point introducing 1v1 would have, it seems like a pointless waste of time.

I think a 1 on 1 battle option would be cool. Preferably if you could 'challenge' someone, rather than make it random.

EDIT: A free for all arena would be kinda cool too...

I just think people would have fun with the extra options... who cares if it's 'Build Wars'? If I had 1 plat for everyone who said 'ZOMG my warrior could kick your warrior's ass...'

The fact that not all classes are equal when put in the same situation. 1v1 battles would be almost completely dependent on the builds run.

Average mesmer build > warriors, assassins, dervish..... and so fort

IMO 1vs1 is exactly the same as a simple scrimmage match..

QFT, this is true. What is wrong with build wars, I mean Anet designed this game for you to make your own strategy and not just copy other peoples or run cookie cuter gimmicks.

Perhaps the same could be said of any activity in a video game.

1v1 is about as meaningful as rock/paper/scissors.

Perhaps you could only play against other characters which are the same primary profession as your own?

This would be great I think!

It doesn't really matter because we know for certain that the 1 vs 1 she refers too is hero laddder most likly. Right now Hero battles is a joke. THe key to winning it is to either
1.roll for title
2.find a build that works with AI

the probelm is that the AI is too much of a dumbass to really know how to play anythign beyond SR ele.

Yeah, Hero battles are the epitome of stupidity. That people simply roll to win is disgusting. Of course, the strategy only works because nobody gives a rat's ass about them.

Now, if they were going to bother with a silly little instant-action format, a Persistent FFA arena would probably be more entertaining than RA when you're bored and waiting for guildmates to log on.

16 person FFA Persistent map. Dieing gets you kicked and replaced by a new player, kill quota (1 every 5 mins?) to avoid being kicked for being boring, faction only for kills to encourage offensive builds... Oh, and throw in an observer mode for people in the outposts.
...What? It could happen. ¬_¬

Great. They're working on something pointless which we can already do through guild scrimmages. Waste of time really.

All formats of PVP are already like that anyhow. Guild Wars has always been that the most effective build wins.

1vs1 is a great idea, they should make you be able to get Fame for it too.

I highly doubt it will be a true 1v1 arena. Ill start bringing a w/mo runner and run the other player in circles if that is the case. Furthermore the 1v1 arena has already been said somewhere to be a 1 person 3 Ai vs 1 person 3 Ai arena so that ends that descussion.

All we need now is people to start begging for 1vALL deathmatches.
