Running with 1 RaO thumper, dealing incredible amounts of damage as always. 1 blindbot to counter the thumpers. 1 return, mending touch, ZB monk (which was greatly played by our leadmonk). And 1 Defensive paragon, with anthem of flame, Crippling anthem, tranquility, and various restoration spells.

I believe we met OoOo, but we didnt lose once with this build.
hmm, I don't recall losing to that type of build. Our core group lost a couple times yesterday, the first loss i don't really remember, so that could have been it. The second one was against a build that was somewhat original, extremely annoying but very well put together and played. They were running an ele with 3 wards(foes,melee,stability), sandstorm and stoneflesh aura; rampage thumper with whirling defense; interrupt bow ranger(didn't notice his preps or elite); and a zb monk. I'm sure you can guess how it was played.. wards were camped, they didn't push out until they were recharged, the thumper occassionally came out to harass our monk(when he could put whirling on.. we don't use wild blow so gg =/), the bow ranger was right on with distracting our ele's surge and flash, and anytime we sat in the ward too long sandstorm hurt lots. It was a long game but they ended up coming out on top.

Just a quick reminder for people new to the thread about the rules for posting about TA fights:

Other teams aren't 'beaten'. Beating is so passe, as is 'gg'; the correct term, if you want to be part of the cool crowd, is roll. You ROLLED the other team. Doesn't that sound cool coming off the tongue? It's like PWNED, but more hip.

Now, if you do lose for some reason, it is very important to provide a written explanation, as it is vital that every loss involving anyone with your guild tag must be explained to everyone on this thread -- losses should never, ever, EVER, happen (as you ROLL all other teams) and therefore a full explanation is super important to everybody. For example: It was because it wasn't your core team. Or, it was a new experimental build. Or, your guild was at that very moment in the process of its weekly renaming and reforming, causing momentary confusion as your guild tags changed mid-match.

Thanks guys, and happy posting.

Hmm... i wonder if that's alluding to my post.. lol. Could be to josh's as well, i dunno.

I was impressed with that guilds build and play, so i felt inclined to describe it ^^
and i may also give brief explanations in response to comments made about my guild. Hope that's not a problem.

I found out the tag of that guild is [maw]. another guild i see a lot in TA is [neo] who is also worth mentioning.

It sucks that most people in my guild, including me, play at a different time and we never get to face some good teams. We even usually play during garbage hour.

The strong guilds that i personally try to play real serious against are [ghey] and {Kame}..pretty good and relatively nice players there. I dont meet [tmb] much but they do have a strong core team and up coming players.

Who's dominating TA? Trash talkers, it would appear. This thread has a lot of epeen flying around if nothing else.

That said, I've also met a lot of great people in TA. Regardless of some of the garbage in chat, I especially enjoyed playing against the teams from Kame, Fame, Something Clever and Ghey yesterday. My group got off to a rocky start, but we ended up getting revenge on many of these groups during our streaks.

There are some great players in [neo], but they only play one build, they never run something else, and they also got lots of bad players.

I wouldnt be able to say who s dominating ta in euroland, i thaugt that we (LTN) were ok, but i faced unko, zui and other yesterday, maybe we're not as good as i thaught

The only thing i can say, is that since nightfall release, the level in ta is greater, you can play really good games if you play at the right hours.

The main teams on eu servers used to be the DTS guys (aerosoul, fluffy, nuki nuki, celebrity, mad...), LTN, COLD (comprised of some old DTS and FW members), Some (the guild i used to be in), FW (Leon's former guild before he joined ICE)... all of which died before i switched over to american servers, so I'm not familiar with the current situation there, though i do know that [Duck] with Catty, Orion, Little Kara and others still play more or less regulary.

oh, whenever someone mentions [neo] it's same as if they'd say daze imo...i don't think i ever saw them play anything that didn't involve dazing the opponent...
