You don't like Allbowtross? Well, here's my strategy for something I don't like. I use them, and my opponent counters them, then I take my opponent's strategy to beat the person who's strategy I didn't like. Confusing, but logical.


Yeah, everyone does that. It's interesting to look at everybody and their strategy that they use as an ecosystem of strategies, evolving and dying out. For example, if WyzDM created a 1200 alt, that would disrupt the local ecosystem there and cause a new strategy to propagate along the lower ranks and slowly upwards as they begin winning against the intermediates.

But back on topic: No, I don't like albatross. Probably just because I'm a minimalist.

You're not getting the point.

Player 1 plays Player 2.
Player 1 loses to Player 2.
Player 1 plays Player 3, and uses Player 2's strategy.
Player 1 loses again.
Player 1 plays Player 2, and uses Player 3's strategy.
Player 1 wins.

So basically I put it simply, of course it's more complicated than this. Basically, Player 1 wins because he uses Player 3's strategy against Player 2. Since Player 3 beat Player 2's strategy, and Player 1 is using Player 3's strategy, then Player 1 wins.

Who exactly are u talking to? There will be a strategy that counters P3's strategy. Strategies change with buffs, updates, nerfs, and etc.

No, I'm just saying that's how you find the counter for a strategy that you don't know how to beat.

It's called "training". But yea, like the great Daemonic once said, "Everytime you lose, stop & think, Why did I lose? What did I do wrong? Learn from your mistakes."
These words of wisdom have gotten me to the top 100 and stuff! :p

The words of wisdom I was given and still follow since I was 1200 from a random opponent.

*sigh* But you're thinking of strategies as discrete, you're ignoring the fact that the execution of a strategy is inherently "fuzzy" (based on how good you are at executing it, obviously).

I don't want an infraction, so I'm just going to stop talking about this now. Not that I don't like talking about strategy development, it's just that it has nothing to do with replays.

Can everyone use tny.cz?

It's much faster than scrolling all the way down with pastebin.

... at the top of the textbox in pastebin there's a button that looks like a garbage can, clicking it automatically copies the text to your clipboard.

Met a spearton masser. He got pretty pissed after he realized that speartons are no match for swords.
