ArL - Arthurian League

Of course you don't care, thanks to be precise.

 

Man. The livestream of POWER vs Pk# was boring. Ej did a good job commentating but most of the time it was only him talking. Last time when Ej and boxpipe were going back and forth with those hyped up commentaries, now THAT was interesting.

 

Its really hard to commentate on a game where both sides camp until one side gets bored enough to rush. Maybe this should get changed to unlimited lives with a 1 hour timer?

(Haven't watched any actual matches for awhile, and I'm sure there are moments where this is untrue but for the most part...)

 

Well, the maps have been completely revamped. It's different kinds of flat maps with less extreme additional features now. As an ArL player, you can take a look at that in the ArL group: https://forum.kag2d.com/threads/new-map-cycle.11913/

 

Oh, I wouldn't know about that because I never really looked in there anyway, and I removed myself from the group.

 

could i get added to the group?

 

Me too please.

 

Not all are being added to the social forum.

 

i'm aware of that, but i've played every ArL weekend but one and i stream one or more matches every week. being updated on everything would be very helpful for me.

 

I know,I really think you should be added.

 

Need to be added to the ArL social group, thank you.

Question, are the website clan match dates and times accurate?

Edit: Thanks for adding me FBB.

 

Add me to please D;
Here Viddy =)
http://www.arthurianleague.net/
Edit: It is accurate for me.

 

not sure but i think he was asking if the times listed on the arl website are accurate. viddy, we have to schedule our time with our opponent.

 

Add DELTA to the ArL already.

 

You hurt my feelings my asking that question. Of course theyre accurate. :D

Creation Process :

1. Boths teams talk about a time in a private discussion directly on the site.
2. One of the teams suggests the match to another. (The time is converted to UNIX and is not being edited further.)
3. Other team accepts.
4. Freddex (admin) accepts the match as viable
5. The match gets posted on the site
6. Site adds or substract x hours depending on the Timezone you've chosen.

There is not really a big place for error. (+ I made the website pretty much bugfree for a regular user, since it runs for a couple of weeks and many bugfixes were done.)

 

Citizens! A new rule set is on the way for more entertainment. Some people will shout at me for changing the rules mid-season, but my main concern is entertaining matches and improving the current rule set. For this, we have to experiment with stuff. Anyways, these are the main changes:

• Premium mode! It sounds bigger than it is. We get darkness and wooden blocks. That could be fun, we'll see.
• Kegs! Yes, you heard me right. Big badass kegs with even an improved explosion radius and damage ratio. That comes with a price, though. 15 Gold and 40 Coins you have to pay for these babies. Acquiring gold now has strategic value.
• New maps! We now have five badass map generators newly made for the ArL (stolen and robbed, actually). They don't have many outstanding features and mostly resemble flatmaps. This preserves an action-packed gameplay of push and pull we were lacking on the fancier valley and mountain maps. The format also changed a bit. 150 in width to create more tension, and 50 in height for less megatowers. Fitting to the keg price, a big vein of gold can now always be found in the center of every map. Smaller veins that are harder to access can be found under the bases of people, so the first rush for the middle does not get too meaningful. I won't show any pictures here, just check the streams on Saturday to see it right in action. : D
• Faster digging for archers! A small, fun feature. We might see entrenching archers, or archers collecting arrows like the wind.

This should be more of a joy to watch for you people. The website is constantly evolving, too. Soon, we'll have a unique page for each match where you can see the stream, comment, and do *secret feature omitted*. It'll be great, trust me.

Came here only to hear the match times from old Freddex? You can check arthurianleague.net, always. But you might be a link hater, so:

• Pk# vs. YB: 6 PM GMT --> Can YB finally get some more points or will Pk# continue its victory streak towards victory, only interrupted by the evil and still unbeaten overlords of POWER?
• FAITH vs. xCUBE: 7 PM GMT --> Our cute Russians vs. our less cute cubes. There'll be blood.
• Merc vs. POWER: Unconfirmed time --> Don't despair yet! Merc has a new lead, Vidar and vampo are now heads of the sellswords. They don't have to fight in Australia this time, too! They formed a brand new, less random team to crush their enemy. This will be cool, be sure not to miss their debut.

To watch any of these, just visit www.arthurianleague.net during the respective times, there you'll be forwarded to the streams. Have a good time there!

 

I will defienantly be tuning in to see these new rules in action.
The new maps and darkness are going to be great!
Darkness should add some really interesting tactics to the whole thing.

 

Yup. You will notice kegs, too. Teaser:
