    1 vs 1 battles, do they prove skills?

    Indeed there are safe teqniques that allow you to rely on the lead of 1 shot/ cap. But those only work if your enemy isn't skilled enough to make you lose focus and allows you to only work with safe shots. These kinds of safe teqniques work well only when the enemy is campy and predictable. Which i do aknowledge many for being, having plaid large amount of 1v1 sandboxes when i was active on stawp. But there is definetly skill involved: knowing the map, which positions are safer/quaranteed for a hit, where and when you should die or take a hit, controlling supplies by trying to pace the game in a manner suitable for you, being able to land harder shots take harder routes, luring your opponent to make dumb choises in general, flipping enemies, utilising your corpse/flipped tank, getting on top/under enemies, being unpredictable in general etc. Ofc. luck such as server lag and net connection play a role, and there are people who make up their own rules and or utilise the kindness of their opponent to get another meaningless win, but it's definetly not 100% that bs.

    Not sure if sarcasm or a plain out ignorant statement :unsure:

    I think 1v1s prove more about the players way of thinking, than skill. I think it's about pacing. 1v1s can get really slow, if the enemy is unwilling to take risks those types of duelists can win all the battles they want, but they'll still be campers who only rely on advatagious positions or the impatience of the opponent. On the contrary some players can make the game fast paced by using larger variety of tactics. i always respect these guys more. Barely no-one only camps or only offends; that would be predictable and easy to fight against, but you can definetly see which strategy the player prefers. Campers are usually rekt on normal games, becouse you can't just stick to a few basic teqniques when you are facing a team of varying hulls and guns and have a team of your own to support. Also, people who noobcall/act disrespectfully to their opponents are usually the same people who can't see why they lost or won; it's not about using and learning skills to win, to them it's about winning to boost their ego.

    Let's Discuss Isida!

    Isida groups are mainly good for trying to stay alive as long as possible, so if they are not spawncamping keeping the point or flag just ingore them. The 1st thing you wanna do to kill an isida group is to drain their ammo, this can be done with methods such as: burning them or diving in to their group with an isida module and a weapon with alot of ammo. After they have used most of their ammo any teammate can finish them off or heal you and let you finish the job. But yeah making them waste their ammo as quick as possible is the key, 1 shots with shaft and rail work, if you are only targetting 1 person on the group (the flag carryer, the 1 that has prot from your friends, the 1 that hasn't used repair yet etc.)

    Let's Discuss Product Kits

    What is w this rockshaper kit? Wiki says it's on roster 2, but when i went to check on my recruit alt, that sees all other kits it was nowhere to be seen. :unsure:

    Let's Discuss Product Kits

    Gotta admit, allthough i've not been playing i've followed this whole kit fiasco. For me kits were 1 of the best parts of tanki after sales got awful. Honestly the 1st roster could look worse, i kinda like how they tried to make the kits like they were before, with the similar protections n' all, as if after 3 major changes in 1 summer on the prices and content of the kits, they still strived for consistancy and reliability. I dunno. if they can pull off the 3 rosters and make similar price and content choises with them, i'll be amazed. Extra points if they can cycle those kits for like a a few months, afterall the 2 roster system lasted almost a year. Im hoping for the best, im really starting to miss some of tankis gameplay, and Tx hype train has been going on for so long im starting to doubt, if it gets released before the armageddon or ragnarök or something.

    It's not like "crystals" are any good for something else. Before this it was moving pictures of tanks and paints that made me happy, now i hope that pictures of teddyes and wrenches will make some of my bros happy. Trust me, if crystals could buy mint choclates or lemon soda i'd keep them for that, but the only thing they are good for is buying some pictures on a screen It's only question of what kind of pictures you happen to value. No disrespect ik you are a huge part of the community and respect you very much for that and many things you have said. Btw i did the buys on stawp alreeady :) it was an easy decision
