Deathball tricks

There are somes little thinks that give to a game a really nice dimension. Ok, deathball is a funny game but if all the tricks we can do is losed, I think that I wont be really interesting to play it seriously.
I'm conviced that bouce trick, flying volley etc... is a part of technical tricks that only good team can do. Just avec a look at "18 team". It's all this think that make the game instesting to see. Just think on it ...

Another thing: everbody has seen that speed isn't used. I think it's because we've got to much speed. We can almost sprint during 10s. In my mind, before it was included in the game, I imagined sprint only to free ourself of defense. 2s of sprint its good, the time to pass etc... if the recovery time isn't too short, It could avoid abuses.

its this in every game to my opinion , people find tricks and other people cant stand those tricks and some do . but if you cant beat 'em , join 'em or find your own trick . cause whats a game if you cant put something personal or something your team trained on in the match/game then it will soon become simple routine and boring -_-

ya, the prob is that a trick is so almighty that it cannot be stopped by the other team so you whore it!

whenever that happens we block it by DB

Pbox camping with 3-4 players is impossible to score on if they do it right... its whored all the time

The only ways to beat it you've already taken out. Just watch how many people leave because of it in 1.9

go away surge. like your clan can get 4 people into a pbox every time someone attacks?

i would say average is keeper, box defender and someone boosted back, and thats like 3v3 attackers.

but the defenders gun can spaz out, OC, miss, deflect or get gibbed...

Offense is already an uphill battle because of pbox camping not to mention people who double keep when they hear a charge start and those who boost back and bum rush you.

i dont have problems scoring either when i have a somewhat organized partner on O... Its still almost impossible to shoot the ball normally though. The only 2 times i ever can is when the defender backs up to double keep or the other attacker decks the defender infront of me out of the way.

On the other hand i can volley about 70% more often because even though its harder to do (not really) and its less accurate (thats a laugh) its always an option unless your getting 2v1 swarmed.

Agreed!

make it so sprint charges up slower and u can't do it as often
