To the 5 other players in the game I've just been booted out of, both thanks for such a good competitive game and appologies for being unable to continue it. It appears that Demigod decided that instead of continuing to play I should just take some time to have a look at the rankings screen in my system's browser... (insert long cursing rant here)
It was interesting to play head to head with another erebus player who played his DG in a very similar manner to the way I played my own (max bite, heavy on minions, bat swarm, ignore mist and charm). I feel that he had an edge on me some how (probably experience) but fortunately my team mates were exceptional and came to my aid multiple times (go torch bearer!)
Despite the HORRENDOUS experience of trying to actually get into a game I continue to find this game heaps of fun, so keep plugging away GPG and fix up the menu system & networking issues.
I'd love to hear details! I've played very few good games and love to hear the goings on of good games!
(I'm stuck at work!)
This is the first post I've seen that compliments the game 100%! TheTrav, you rock!
Not much to say on details... Map was umm, one of the 3v3 maps but not prison... started with C... has 3 contested flags, gold mine + artifact in the center but creeps rush left and right
We had myself as eberus, torch and a rook on our side, the other side had an erberus and two queens of thorn, I bought nothing to start with, saved up for a facemask first to get mana regen happening (it's almost always my weakest resource) got a lvl 2 minotaur at the same time
There was lots of push and retreat, but I got to my flag first against Eby, and the two queens were pretty easily pushed off their flags, so we had a pretty strong start.
First blood took aaages, I think I was level 4 or 5 before it happened, and it was a QoT who was taking on our torch bearer and didn't notice me sneak up on her with bat and bite (I'd only just bought bat)
after that I went back and got gold upgrade plus I think boots of speed, at some point I got a few more kills of thorn queens, and eventually saw them all pushed back so I could go get lvl IV archers and the exp upgrade. I got cheap ass priests (monks) at that point just because I had some leftover cash and later on they saved me a couple of times with their timely heals.
I think I ended up getting one kill on the enemy erberus but I think he got me back twice. I had a few really close calls, both I and the other teams QoT's got away with about 10 hp left at one point. A particularly satisfying one was when the other eby went after me on the center flag, and had me down, but hadn't noticed our torch bearer creep up and wind up his fireball.
Umm... what else... I remember I was focussing fairly heavily on the enemy DG's minions whenever we initiated battles, as I wasn't confident I could take him out from full strength with them around, that seemed to do pretty good, although night crawlers take a LONG time to go down relative to other minions. When I got booted I had last glimpsed the levels at 13 12 13 on my side and 13 5 12 on the opposing side (one of the QoT was struggling hard) and we had lots of kills so I think the scales were tipping in our favour. I had the mana sucking gauntlets and was trying to save for crusader plate and typically after that I'll go for mage slayer if I'm desparate or cloak of fire if I think I can get the cash together quick enough.
On, and the other team was on priests. Which is awesome because priests tend to line up in these massive cabana trains and sometimes two waves with cath up to one another and I can wipe em all out at once in a bit bat swarm. mmmm instant level up
Very sick. Thanks for sharing mr Trav
ive had very few close games but its always a blast when it happens!
