Brawl matches like two 1vs1 fights? Why? | Forums

Honestly alot of people perfer 1 v 1 since you tend to get in eachother way when you gang. Alot of people mindless swing than you do nothing but give the enemy revenge than he spanks both of you, or some fights can be costly because interference ex; you go to parry a blow teammate swings hits you off balance you eat unblockable to the face may even end up falling off a ledge cause of it, now you feeling salty at him for costing you a easy parry

There's nothing honorable about "ganking" your teammates 1v1, just as there's nothing honorable about standing on the sidelines, watching him lose. It's just two sides of the same coin. Do what you want, ignore the whiners.

Speaking to the muskets comment. You can't discredit the fact a select few commanders realized that trading shots was the worst way to win against a superior force. Those people you speak of with differing views are just the kind of people who would break the common mold to secure a victory at any cost.

And while this is just a game and only simulated battle one thing remains true. Those who prepare for anything their opponent may throw at them will always fair better than those who don't. Morality is one thing like killing non-combatants but when you're tasked to win against an equally armed enemy he line starts to blur greatly.

I am not discrediting the select few that didn't follow this rule.I'm just using it as point.I think they were idiots for taking turns.

Play the AI in a brawl...if they kill your buddy you're facing 2 v 1...its the way it was intended to be played. Everyone is entitled to their own interpretation but that cuts both ways....

I personally prefer to do pairs of 1v1s in my Brawls, but it's not a matter of honor or dishonor. I don't ascribe some greater narrative to the way I chose to play my game, it's just the way I like to do it. To me, people who tie their choice to honor or dishonor are just trying to use that ideal as a shield to protect their feelings when they lose.

"Sure, I lost, but it was only because they didn't play the right way like I did. Had they played the way the game was supposed to be played, I obviously would've won."

I suppose in some cases they also just might like the perceived high horse they get to sit on when crowing about the "right" ways to play (protip, this is your horse: http://tinyurl.com/kcu658u).

In reality, the closest I come to "honor" is playing the way the other team and my teammate dictate. By default, in a Brawl I allow 1v1s and won't interfere except to save my friend from execution (and if I can do so without damaging the opponent, all the better, but I won't hesitate to slice you to save my teammate's life), in 4v4 Elim I will do the same, and in 4v4 Skirmish or Dominion it's anything goes the whole way through. If, however, my teammate or the opposing team initiates a gank, then that's how I will play the round from then on out.

I won't go crying about it on the forums, or in the match, I'll adapt and win anyway. Adapting is much more satisfying than losing and trying to use your honor to dry your tears.

When you select Brawl you play Brawl and that includes ganking. When you select duel you play duel. If someone does not like it then they can go **** themselfs. It's that easy. If you let stupid people dictate how the game should be played then you will never play it as it is intended. There is nothing more to add.

From personal experience, that opinion is in the minority. The vast majority of people playing brawl when I'm in Brawl mode are playing the 2x 1v1 way. So you're saying the majority of people are stupid and don't understand how to play a mode?

I think the way a mode is intended to be played is in whatever way the people within the mode most enjoy it. Sure, if you get ganked in Brawl it's a perfectly legitimate way for the opposing team to act, regardless of how you feel, but you're attempting to make it sound like doing it any other way is stupid. Playing based on the arbitrary rules established by some random on the forums would be stupid. Playing in a manner to garner the most enjoyment for your time spent is smart.

Edit: Before people start spouting about how the AI plays being the rule-setter, the AI also never changes their guard to accomodate multiple players, they never try and parry unblockables, and they just generally play stupid. So that means that the game is meant to be played with such silly mistakes? AI doesn't define how a game is to be played, it's playerbase does.
