Then why bring it up in the first place if you never said anything about me saying it, which, you did, when you brought it up, since I didn't.

I don't "assume" anything, actually. Every single person (yes, every single one) who I have encountered that runs away, is terrible in a duel. Either because I'm kicking their butts and they run, or they run, i catch them, and destroy them in 5 seconds. It's not a generalization, it's accurate analysis. Btw, running doesn't always secure a win if you're garbage anyway. I've had people run from me, gang up when they run into a teammate, and I still destroy them both. usually because the fleeing scrub has low health and is easy to kill, and my auto block only gives me revenge to kill the second person. It's not an issue I have as far as affecting whether or not I win, it's simply annoying and sad.

I was never referring to running away when ganged up on in my original post, just when a player thinks he can't win his current bout. It just threw me off when you mentioned about being ganged up on.

I rarely ever faced against anyone who would run away from me the moment he realized that he was losing our bout. So that would make my analysis contradictory to yours. Which is why I wouldn't really call personal experiences as "accurate analysis" as everyone has different experiences. The problem with 4v4 is that it always boils down to which team gets to secure a kill first. What follows is a race to overwhelm your opponents with numbers. It may not be the most ideal situation for those seeking an "honorable" fight, but you just have to adapt your rules of engagement. 2v2 seems to have a higher concentration of "honorable" players.

I'm pretty sure you must be really proud of yourself calling other people names like "coward", "scrub" or "bums" just because we play differently from you.

It's almost like me calling you "stupid" for not knowing how to flee. But well i won't.

It's almost as stupid as thinking pride is related to using an insult. Don't know anyone who is "proud" of that. I don't think that's the corresponding emotion.

That's just ego making you bent on defeating your enemy in a battle to the finish. If you let it withhold the best possible decisions in a fight, it makes you a pretty bad player for the team.

The most professional 4-man teams i've played with, all knew how to flee when the time is right. These teams were REALLY difficult to deal with and i've had to chase too. But did i have fun? Sure as hell i did. Even if i lost, it means i've been outsmarted by the opposing team and it was satisfying because i learnt of new ways to combat them.

Why do you think the game was designed to have certain triggers in the map where you can press "E" and you block out a pathway or some feats allowing you to lay traps? Fleeing IS a genuine tactic. And the ones who are able to do it right are really good at it.

? He's stating that you're acting as though you're on a higher pedestal because you don't run from combat, and use that sense of misguided pride to bash others who don't fit your skewed view of honor in this game. Isn't a very hard concept to grab.

I am on a higher pedestal. Next.

I couldn't agree more! Listen BlackbirdMPK, I play the Lawbringer. He's one heavy guy, slow as hell. I did encounter guys who flee, it's in the game. Basic strategy. Just like when I equip my gear that makes me run faster. What happens then? Little Peacekeeper won't be running away from me no... little Peacekeeper will soon become a kebab on the end of my poleaxe, as I look her in the eyes knowing she won't be contributing to her team anytime soon. Sometimes I run to, if my team benefits from it why not?

Funnily enough, a synonym for pride is arrogance. You fit the definition down to the letter.

I'm just tossing out suggestions, though. Thoughts? Experiences?

What initially seemed like a bid for people's thoughts and suggestions quickly turned into insults and name-calling the moment someone disagrees with you.

I think people can really see who the toxic ones are in the community - not the people who flee a duel, but the ones who are self-righteous and arrogant.

It is a basic strategy of war. If your opponent is too strong, retreat, and come up with a different plan of attack. There is no shame in temporarily retreating.
