the number of random nobody's has increased a lot since the game started changing. No there is no "do it better" since just doing it is usually enough to win anyways aka. even if you did a powerful play in the stupidest situation you still probably won cuz there's a lack of balance in the meta.

i understand what u mean but what do u mean y random nobodies? i still see a lot of the same people topping events.

thats always gonna happen you do realize that it is possible to get better at this game? plus theres only's that one bad player that tops and alot of the "good" players are getting stale.

it just means the random nobody scale went from 1-2 spots to 5-6 per tourney. It wasn't until the mechanics changed and decks went auto pilot that nobody's like Anthony Hernandez started winning Jumps. you see more names coming out of the woodworks in the last year and a half than you did in the entire first 3 years of the game, with big names of the past getting knocked out in swiss rounds. It's not that those players are miraculously terrible now....its that the game is more brain dead and requires less talent to win.

im not saying people don't get better cuz they do the NH crew is a prime example of that, but u can't say the simpler meta didn't help.

i see what ur saying but i think as the game changes so does the player base. the players who were previously good need to adjust to the game as it changes even if it becomes brainless. thats what being a good player is all about IMO.
p.s. i think hernandez is a good player

we are deciding if anbu should be banned the day of the event, and it has to be a UNANIMOUS vote (meaning everyone has to agree - if one person out of X disagrees, we cannot do this)... doubtfully it will happen, it's just an option that's open...

the meta is STALE right now because we've been playing since late august with the same deck types..and it's been determined for months that water, lightning and fire are the only TRUE meta decks.

this NH chunin is the end of that era, thankfully... the rogue list + invasion should make the game much more interesting...

team kage needs to be there WITH their best decks... this is a chunin, so there's decent prizing on the line. again, i'm sure we can figure out a way to make everyone happy to the point that ANBU gets banned.. that is, unless someone is adamantly opposed to it..


i really want to see you guys play Matt Eisenbud (the pro-est player ever)

EDIT: he's coming all the way from NJ for this event, he texted me today to confirm 100%

team kage vs. matt eisenbud....
