Read my post in the Ranger thread about cry babies who complain about every FotW. Anyone who is complaining about this build being unbalanced is a cry baby with no play skill.

TFA had their own version that got stolen so they pretty much stopped using it.

iQ's version is quite different from anyone else's we've seen and pretty much steamrolls any team who doesn't have a lot of anti-iway counters. It's fun just smashing face on all 8 maps up to the hall but holding the hall more than once is generally impractical especially when it's 16v8 holding or not so we don't use it much.

every body is thinking of W/R in a IWAy build buth R/W is mutch better

i played in a build like this

R/W 4
N/R 2
Mo/E 1
W/R 1

i played the monk with wards and i mostly heal the nicrmancers while the rangers and warior kill the rest fast. as 1 die the dmg goes op realy fast. most ppl take anti warrior skills to counter buth not for rangers

You know the part on the box everyone always quotes that says "Victory earned with skill, blah blah blah"?

What mamluk said should come next.

Like smite? It requires no skill...
Spike damage? Mhm, you need to press the buttons at the same time - not much skill involved...

Most tactics are basically very easy - but you need skill to be better than the others. Most iway teams are bad and I really can't understand why people get defeat by it most of the times. But a good iway team is very hard to beat.

a good team simply knows better than using IWAY.

It is allways interesting to read on these boards. This is probably the only board where the argument that something can be "countered easily" is marked as "noobish, moronic and idiocy". Yes, i know... i've just quoted the more polite words.
Which comes down to a simple "It is overpowered when i and my guild of trolls says it is overpowered.".

So to stay on topic:
Oops, with that boardwide present argument there is no such thing as a topic about skill discussions.

All sarcasm put aside, and simply ignoring the "counter doesn't count!" trolls. I don't see what is so unbalanced about iway. This sadly is the same type of whine we've seen with every flavor of the month. To add a bit more fun into the allready boiling soup of hate... it is really fun to see IWAY go moo with pets. As both have been stated as being totally noob and useless by the majority of the Guildwars Community. Now there is a build that suddenly uses these both things to a successful degree.
Could the whining be based upon the fact that people can no longer bash others for bringing these things?
Just like stealing icecream from a kid... this build has taken away the clearance to bash others from those elitists.

next thing you know we will see "nerf teh necromancer" because 8 of them using an edge bomb can wipe 2 teams off the map in 2 seconds.

The funny thing about iway is that people assume it's some great build. The main point people seem to miss is that it's really just the fact that you have 8 warriors, iway or no.

If you just ran an 8 war build with w/e's, w/n's, w/r's, w/mes and war/mo's, you would do just as good as an iway group with 6-7 pets. After all, most will simply ignore the pets anyway now that the word is out about iway...

Oh, and iway doesn't even come close to needing a nerf.

'Stolen'.. yah. Using a build in the tombs and talking constant crap while you're playing isn't a good way to 'hide' a build. Duh.

Yah, I saw a few comments about fear me and stuff, but unfortunately haven't ran into them in the tombs using that build. I was hoping to too, it sounded interesting... wanted to see if our ball would hold up to it or not.
