When the deal is about to expire there is a timeframe where the new price for the next item is displayed but the old item is sold. In my case i could buy a mirvlauncher for the price of a throwingdisc for a short timeframe. Since throwingdiscs are way cheaper than the mirvlauncher it resultet in a 80%+ discount, which is most probably not intended by hirez. Please, do NOT tell Hirez about that :p. | ||

I honestly feel that zoid is not a very good capper(a lot of scrims I've seen he turns the route into a punt or "fake"... compared to other cappers who consistently run 300 routes), so that makes sense to me. But VashEricks? He's so damn good. O_o | ||

Unless you're trying to self-clear forcefields in a pub or something like that it's not really worth using them in CTF. | ||

But VashEricks? He's so damn good. O_o Sry, should have mentioned, Bricks was talking about it on his stream. Apparently zoid tried to cut him.. but yeah, he just wasn't good enough. He could have stayed on as team captain/coach, with the possibility of returning to play if he improved his game, but he chose to quit. I guess it makes sense as he couldn't make money streaming as a coach. It seems like that was a bit of an issue for some players, that zoid was focusing too much on his stream and not enough on his game/team captain role. As to VashEricks, I don't know if it was the fact that he's Zoid's brother and he didn't want to be on the team any longer, or if he was only really good in a tank (100% speculation here). | ||

And zoid really was a shitty capper. He just had a team that could back him up. | ||

He just had a talespin that could back him up. ftfy zoid was definitely their worst player and they're better off for cutting him, but the team still lacks a lot of individual skill that's going to hurt them unless they improve a lot individually (not likely) or make some good recruiting moves | ||

They are among the top 5 teams, had the worst capper.. but the rest of a51 are bad? How does that logic work? Imo tailspin is insanely good and titan, blinks and bricks are great. The rest I'm not so sure about but panda seems like a great player too (dunno if he's playing now though). On May 13 2012 00:51 TBone- wrote: Also for picking his nose and then eating it :/.

Unlike zoid buhlitz can at least run a fast route, he just has a tendency to run exactly one route per game over and over again. A51 has a kinda weak offense though, but obviously doesn't stop them. Tbh I think they'll fall apaprt now that punting has been nerfed which was their main strategy. | ||

They aren't bad, but they are a cut below a lot of the teams they play against individually. Talespin carries that team, hard. You replace talespin with even an average comp sniper (average comp sniper still being pretty damn good), and their whole team falls apart. They have no outstanding flag d or duelers (no, brick, blinks, titan, etc. are not particularly good). They do coordinate on offense pretty well and understand often what they ought to be doing, which certainly helps, but they struggle against a team like tao whose coordination is really quite poor simply because the individuals on tao (or a team like icarus) are far ahead of them individually. | ||
