The American Knights: April 21st 2013 ~ April 21st 2014

I personally like the idea of digging into the ground because :
-takes time for the enemy to tunnel
-able to hear them tunneling
-possibly takes away their best offensive player
-induces teamwork
-makes us rely on defense, rather than offense, so action is equally distributed
-I enjoy the tension
So. Not saying that these reasons over power those of an Intel tower, but I do feel, that the best defensive team, will never lose, and that is something we need to strive on. My soccer team, which won the I.A.Cs (my regions championship league) 17 times and our defense has been the strongest part, and containing the person, funneling then down 2v1 always wins. And we boot the ball back, and score. Just translate ball into "player" and it'll make sense.


"The best offense is the best defense"

But as Lines did it yesterday is they had topo spawnkilling us for awhile, while the others dig down and get it.
But the tactic seems to work better as we tied Limes 3-3, and against Lines and TSB the tactic also worked well.

The reason we lost was because of our team work. We did not work well enough together to hold the intel. The hole seems to work fine against teams that are bad or decent but high level teams like lines and SPQR will have an easy time because they are good at killing us. I think it would work on komrades though due to the fact that they don't work together good.

Really wish I could have stayed for the whole match, but I only had like a half-hour....

Does anyone have next Friday off for superintendents day?

[ZEB 99]

I do actually. Although I may be forced to go somewhere .

[Gingerninjaperson]

Uhh... what day? Never heard of it...
Also, any matches tomorrow?

To be honest I found fighting AK the other day using the digging tactic more intense, stressful and well-organised than fighting against TSB, SPQR, Komrades etc - I certainly wouldn't call the match we had an 'easy time' :P
Keep doing it - it works and you do it well. :)

I think that tunneling is effective because, it's not something most people do. almost everyone builds towers. I think the only downfall is if they do tunnel for their base to ours. But if that happens that means we have a chance to take over another route that's under cover and gives a chance to split off from that tunnel to make a new path that's unexpected.

I think I like digging better because it is easier to tell when the enemy is coming, and way faster. You have to waste a lot of time getting an intel tower up (and blocks). Intel towers, people can just sneak up and break it, but when it is underground, you hear them tunneling because there is no way to muffle it. Also, digging takes no blocks so you don't have to run back to your base all the time. Also, you don't have to be that good to guard the intel if it is underground. It is a LOT easier if you ask me. Just get that SMG and you can kill the enemy easily when you see them. If you are guarding by an intel tower you are out in the open and people can kill you.

Sounds about right. Shotguns are really good as well.

I won't be able to make any matches this week, as I'm going to have a ton of homework. Looking on blackboard (The website our school uses to post homework and such) I'm going to have both an important paper and some sort of collage assignment in English due on Friday, so I'll have no free time this week. Also, the usual High School stuff, I'm sure there will be a few quizzes, and I have a History project due. Don't think I'll have much homework for next weekend though!

I won't be any good for just about any matches because i still haven't gotten batteries yet.

P.S. I hatched your eggs for you Somniun
