    There I was, playing CTF, the first game was pretty good, and I did a very good job of keeping my team alive and whatnot.

    (we won shortly after this screenshot was taken.

    It was a good game, and I was feeling ready for the next game! We built a very nice
    screen-15-08-15-13-53-58.png
    and so I charged forward, ready to crush my enemies, I came across a chicken which helped me get over the blue scrum's wall!
    screen-15-08-15-13-55-48.png
    screen-15-08-15-13-55-50.png
    I had lots of kills, and it didn't feel very fair, my teammates forgot that they could climb the wall and grab the flag as archer, so I stayed there and fought for a while, until I died and came back with a keg, blowing up my foe's wall. We then took some more flags.
    screen-15-08-15-13-59-36.png
    But then, the horror happened! The blues rage-quitted and we were left all alone with a sour taste in our mouths.
    screen-15-08-15-13-59-56.png
    Poor blues all left the game, we won the next minute, but it wasn't a very good game. So this my friends, is why you should git gud and make better bases, have a more balanced team (50% knights, 25% archers and builders)

    That or I should've skipped the map, chickens OP plz nerf.

    It isn't exactly all about the experience of the other team, it's more about the fact that the people on the other team literally are cowards that surrender the moment they find out that the other team are full of pros.

    80% of people, games or not, do not enjoy facing some nigh immortal enemy that trumps them everytime they try something, so they leave
    you can't expect people who aren't having fun to continue playing.

    Yea, I agree if with @DatNobby. Some of the time I just quit CTF because its really boring. I see pros do this all the time. Its not fun when you dont have a challenge.

    9/10 I don't even bother staying in a server without someone matching my skill level because it just becomes a game of "how long can I stay in their base w/o dying"

    This is a cool story. And with pictures! IV never seen a thread like this, even though it might have been done before.

    Now I need to write my own story.

    I'll usually stay in a server unless it has >4 people who aren't interested in RP or peace
    If I'm not interested I'll just be pacifist

    I personally ragequit this particular session because you had lagspikes up to 2k ping, so yeah, there's that too.

    Other than that I don't really see why you posted this thread other than to brag about your score. Not trying to hate, I just think it's a weird thread.

    I'll kill you all with my laggy lag lag! I didn't see any problems myself but others might, there's not much I can do to help that though.

    Also yeah, this is just for bragging, but it sparked some really nice comments.

    Well, if the other team is full of pros, then you actually do have a challenge.

    That's a very important thing to mention, if I had screenshots from when I first played, it'd be a compilation of games lost and pictures of my dead body being humped by a knight or two! The difference with the "pros" and the "noobscrubsgitgud" is that the pros stuck around, enduring defeats after defeats, getting better and better until finally, they triumphed and stuck out above the peasantry, to become real KAG pro knights.

    Archer is a whole other story, all archers are born equal, it's just the amount of troll-iness that makes them any better.

    Builder is about taking the opportunities when they present themselves, making the best of your build phase and being even more of a troll then archer, but still less annoying on some levels, since you don't charge in with your pickax and kill knights, archers you can.

    If my team was filled with nubs and the other with a bunch of pros? Yeah, no. Not a challenge in that case, more like really frustrating and boring, lol.

    It's only an official challenge (noun) until you accept it (conscious decision or unconscious decision). Someone or something can challenge you (verb) but you don't have to accept it. And I don't know about you, but I will not accept a challenge that is really frustrating and boring.

    The story of CTF, and why you should git gud: Addendum

    So there I was....Building a wall in front of Wilpin7 so he cant cap. As you can see from my corpse I had no stone so get off my back.

    I jumped down to build a 2nd layer and Kazaco killed me. (RIP)

    Droping a keg on Wilpin7 and kazaco.

    Sweet revenge.

    Shout out to @mehwaffle10 for being the only one alive in these shots.

    I wish there was a program that could take the last 10 seconds of your gameplay and turn it into a gif.
