Re: Ladle 82

ABC played really strong and we didn't play well enough to beat them. It's that simple. As a general note, if a server is shitty for one team, it is more often than not equally shitty for the other. CT was just playing by the rules, trying to make the best possible match in the server that was assig...

Re: Ladle 81

+0 to Lights, was fine for me, but others had major issues with it

Good matches to Speeders and uNk. Great job beating us even despite all your connection issues. Really fun matches all around.

Re: America VS Europe: All-Stars 2014

Interesting comment about Canada... What about players from Mexico and South America? Russia? I'm sure there are others.

Re: Ladle 80

GMs to all the teams we faced. CTb, Team.uNk, Redemption, and Ascension! Special notes- To Redemption, great job clawing your way to the semifinals. I watched a snippet of your game versus Rogue Tronners, and you made an amazing comeback against them in the third match. Playing you in the semis was ...

Re: Ladle streaming - are ppls interested in this?

I could stream tourneys. Stream a pickup game and ask a couple to check your quality, if it's good, why shouldn't you? :) Commentary is important for a good stream. Get some good commentators on TeamSpeak (or similar). I don't know about your fort knowledge and player knowledge, so decide for yours...

Re: Ladle streaming - are ppls interested in this?

Figured I'd bump this topic as it is a better place to discuss streaming than in the ladle 79 topic. I wanted to give something to the community so a few weeks ago I tried to set up a twitch stream. At the end of my experiment, I determined that connection is the biggest factor in being able to make...

Re: Ladle 79 Predictions!! (posts encouraged!)

Some last minute predictions... Opening Round: Crazy tronners Beta vs. Oops (2-0): Oops needs to recruit Speeders Vs. Kill street (0-2): Because Kill St. Crazy Tronners Alpha Vs. Speed of Light (2-0): I think SoL will surprise CTA, but not enough to win. uNk. Vs. Ascension (2-0): Underdogs, I want A...

Re: Ladle 77

Loki's - 0

Play was surprisingly a little slidey even for a US player. All things considered, it was alright though.

GMs to Void, surprised us a bunch of times, and GMs to Rogue Tronners. Look out for us next time! :D

Re: Ladle 77 predictions

Not many predictions this time around... guess I'll give a crack at it! Opening round: Immortal Dynasty - 2 Pseudonym - 1 This match could go either way, depending on who Pseudonym gets for subs. ID has a good lineup with lots of players, depending on who shows up, I give them the advantage. Phoenix...

Re: Can we have a Ladle on Sunday, 22nd?

I'm glad everyone had fun, which was the whole point. I know there was some frustration with the lack of rules, but we don't play 4TF enough to make solid guidelines because the number of teams varies greatly. If anyone has the motivation we can come up with a system to cover all the possible combi...

Re: Ladle Fortress 2014 (Discussion)

Just gonna put it in here, because it seems relevant. When RoadrunnerZ made it past the first round, it was a HUGE confidence booster. Even when we got matched up against average teams, winning in any amount means a lot for a newer team. If removing seeds helps level out the playing field, why not?

Re: Ladle Fortress 2014 (Discussion)

This has probably been mentioned more than once, and I'm too new to know if it has ever been implemented... Shrinking fortress zones? Might help with the long drawn out fights, encouraging riskier play and enhance the fight for tactical advantage. I like the idea of changing the bracket design. It w...
