oh man i would play if i was still at my prime lol. wouldnt feel comfortable playing now after not having played for years  but this is an awesome idea - and im also glad that old gunbound is back for everyone to enjoy. hope theres gonna be a big turnout for this!

The lack of dual/dual+/bunge+ makes the matches very uninteresting and imba towards things like boomers and turtles and terribly bad for things like lightning or nak.
|
I'll join the tourney for the benefit to get some awesome stuff but you called me a noob at gunbound (which is fine) AND on TEAMLIQUID (which is not fine) few days ago. I take very offensive on that. Hmmm...
|
MUST JOIN!!
ID: synApse
EDIT: I think dual+ should be allowed... I personally don't use it, but I used to know a lot of pros who would 1v1 with dual+ dual+ dual
|
I do dual+/dual/dual but then again I'm a noob
|
Sounds like fun

Is there a problem with allowing all items?
|
Are you going to allow Random? Because someone getting a dragon or a knight could mess up the tourney.

We probably don't want to encourage bunging, and we probably don't want to encourage people to spam healing items....

Every bot benefits from dual/dual+ (with the exception of lightning), while only certain bots (ones with high dig) can benefit from bunge items, etc.

Lightning can actually do some nasty stuff with bunge and dual+ if you get a good dual+ in you can dig someone into a hole that's hard to shoot out of. It's not going to bunge them but you can hit them with the #2 first to drop them down then the #1 drops them into a circular hole. Dual+ adds a lot of strategy even to bots like lightning.

I personally (as a turtle) hate playing against good lightnings... they ruin angle with shot 2 if shooting at you from the left and the SS just kills your slope.

playing random cost much skill than selecting your mob..i suppose that dragon/knight are right rewards for the effort

I realized people would start to complain/comment about the items. In GBWC when they had a 1vs1 world league all items were allowed and it was very imbalanced. No bot could beat bigfoot for example, all you did was to get 6 Bunge item and either 1 dual or 2 Small healths. You would kill the angle for the opponent with every shot and bury him deeper, eventually he would get bunged or killed.
Now why I don't allow Dual+ or Teleport and such is because in my experience the delay is a bit imbalanced towards Dual+, i.e you do a SS and the Dual+ might delay you or it might not it's highly unpredictionable. Considering Teleport it's just not fair if you successfully dig a nice hole for your enemy and he just gets out of it to a higher ground and kills you.
Also the Dual+ owns Dual in a 1vs1 for bots that you guys mentioned like Turtle and Boomer. Think about it; boomer vs boomer and 1st uses dual and hits, 2nd does dual+ and hits, 2nd will get next turn and either uses s1 to get advantage (which will lead to 100% win if he hits next) or he tries a dual and might very well kill him right there. This is my experience though.
I thought about having a discussion in the original thread about this but I got so curios so I just posted this anyway. How about he test with just Dual in this tournament and we can add other items in the next one? Note that I am willing to add items in this tournament if you think my idea is too boring and unfavourable.

If you honestly took offense I am sorry, please join our tournament.

TrucyEnigmar Trico only sign me up. Will this be seeded by TL guild rank?

Don't worry, I've called everyone that I've played with here a noob on Gunbound, and I'm 10X worse mannered on Starcraft

Sounds like fun, but I can't play because 20:00 CET = 1:00 here.

It's not, but worst case scenario, it's just as good as nothing

Because of this I've been convinced to get back into Gunbound so restarting all of it as I'll be terribad. I don't know if I can come, I'll try my best.

Whatever... I'll play, but if you don't Dual+, I'm just going boomer. I understand getting rid of healing items, and teleport to prevent long, stupid standoffs, but no Dual+ is still pretty bullshit in my opinion.
|
Alright fine, I'll join.

Also the buddylist works one day and doesn't the other, have patience with it. But opening the port should make it better, worked for me.
