His role is to make sure that nobody get stuck with the infinite amount of snares and roots thrown at his group trying to kill people. Without maneuvers, no group can work his way through 30-40players.

If you disagree, I would be glad to hear your advices and opinions on the matter. I understand that you most likely have never really comprehended what fighting 30-40players actually means and which roles it actually involves (other than a healer and a damage dealer that you will see in most small scale comps).

This being said, it's not because you don't understand how to fight 30-40players successfully that you have to randomly troll somebody covering one of the most important role.

Hi guys im a purge bot, looking for a competetive group. Can cast 15 purges in a row and got just enough brain cells to go towards the Crown sign on the screen.

I'm glad you understand that when facing 30 to 40 players, the amount of debuffs thrown at you is quite large, especially the siege debuffs that can be devastating and require one if not two dedicated players who will focus mainly on purging.

This being said, I am looking forward to your next video of Proxy/Dawny combos on players waiting for a resource flag to flip.

Well done. From the intro, to the the music choice, to the editing, to the performances. I'm guessing you guys play on the EU server. Nice to see other groups of 8-16 doing so well together. Keep the vids coming!

Thanks! I'm glad that I dont waste my time on the montage & that some people enjoy it And yup that's on EU.

I hope, you didn't hurt yourself when typed this...
I just asked.
Ok, so add Maneuvers spam too.
Gotcha.
That's why I dislike blobs.

I am not sure to understand what spamming maneuvers mainly while rotating other support skills like OP mentioned makes you dislike blobs in general. Personally I don't see any reason.

It's one thing to dislike a playstyle and another to respect it and understand that this scene has been part of the game since release and has its place just as 1vXers do, small scallers do or duelers do.

Without 12-16men raids, the game would roll around mindless faction zergs pushing around the emp keeps, gankers, 1vXers and small scallers trying to pickup unorganized pugs riding back to their zerg.

The more organized medium to large groups we get and the more fights get spread out around the map.

Best example I can give you is Thornblade NA.

We used to have so many guilds running groups at that point that we could literally see 7-8 objectives being contested on the map at once. That would give other players such diversity into where they wanna pick up a fight.

I'm glad you enjoy this type of gameplay enough to share I guess.

Personally this would be miserably boring for me.

Yeah I understand what you mean. Killing one player after another in 4seconds burst each and reset the fight with cloak / dodge roll spam in between on a stamblade looks also quite boring to me

Wait, who is spamming Healing Springs on the zerg if you're on here trying to 1vX the forums?

I assume you wrote this in the wrong thread.

I'm so tired of people who do small scale or solo zerg surfing or Xv1 ganks and who talk against ball groups in forums, in twitch streams, ingame, etc. It does not matter if they're just simply trolling or joking.

Don't bring your negativity and immaturity in here.

There is nothing wrong about running a group of 12-16 and this scene should be viable just as much as the other playstyles. Like OP said, if you don't like it it's fine but just move on and ignore this thread.

Alot of people enjoy these videos and this type of gameplay. Keep the conversations respectful and constructive just as you would regarding a video of 1vX on cp1-500 players.

what the fun kill stunned immobilized slowed rooted players that cant fight back

This is pvp? so ugly

Could you explain why they cannot fight back in your opinion?
Here are a few advices to counter the mechanics u mentioned :

stunned : cc break
immobilized : dodge roll / evasion / forward momentum / mist form / retreating maneuvers
slowed : dodge roll / purge / evasion / forward momentum / mist form / retreating maneuvers
rooted : dodge roll / purge / evasion / forward momentum / mist form / retreating maneuvers

Maybe everyone hates ball groups because they cause a tremendous amount of lag, were super OP for the longest time (and maybe still are), and involve a bunch of collective people each spamming one to two skills while doing exactly what one person yelling into ts tells them to do.

Lag? Dont you think that it's the massive zergs of 40+ people that are creating lag? By my own experience it's start to lag when we're in a keep with 40+ people in it, even in a plain. When we're fighting less populated groups there is no lag. Blame servers & zergs for lag not 10-15 people (maybe less sometimes).

One to two skill? In some situations it can be true, depends of the role, but you're wrong on it. Try to survive spammin 1/2 skills even in organised groups.

Have you ever heard of teamplay? If you don't know how to play you'll not be able to follow anything, if you don't get involved in group play, you'll not be able to follow anything, stop trying to discredit how the people are playin and improve your own.
If I'm right in any war there is a leader somewhere, so, what are you arguing for?

Be kind I already asked only for one simple thing; "Do not put more dumbness in this topic ty."

Sorry I reread what I wrote and saw it was a little stronger than what I intended. I actually really enjoyed the video. Creating and being successful in a group like that is one of those things that is a lot easier said than done and really not many people can put in the work or even pull it off if they can put the work in. But from the average player in Cyrodiil, what they are seeing is something they are losing to and get mad and blame it on those three things I said.

ball group pff
click bait
