OMFG! EXPLOITS???

BANT!!!!!!

Seriously, whatever.
I don't endorse them, but I'm in no position to dictate how other people should have fun when playing a computer game, and neither is anyone else. It comes down to the individual.

It also comes down to opinion - the guy who wrote that article isn't a God or a King, so his opinion is as good as anyone elses.

Here at the JA, we teach people to beat them without having to use them for this particular game. It's entirely up to you whether you choose to take us up on that or not.

My opinion is that I don't like them and I personally won't use them. Don't like my opinion? Congratulations. Go tell someone who cares.

I'm sure you feel the same way (about your own opinions). :)

Yeah I agree. If you take was poking from the truly 'skilled' players, they still play fine.


tr00, most pokers used non poke first - and then moved on to poke simply for damage amplification.

Yep, the best players do win, however, there can be good players that don't always win.
Always winning is impossible - winning the majority of the time, is not. I think that's what 13 was talking about.

Quote:
And a while back, it was the place, then ESL came along and started becoming popular in JA.
It may look like that from your point of view. However, you seem to be mistaking your own views for the ones of the whole jka community. Saying that ESL-JA was unpopular, unknown, or didn't even exist up until you and your friends heard about it, is just plain ignorant. It's like saying week of war and battlestats were unpopular because dureal never heard of them ~ he's not the sum of all people!

The ESL opened it's jka ladders sometime shortly after the game's worldwide release (october 03). You and the people you knew maybe just havn't noticed them because you were busy with your own communities and leagues? - certainly doesn't make the ladders unpopular though.

Quote:
So let me get this straight, I reread what 13 said and he said that pokers are basically players who failed to be good
You misunderstand. He said that most players who completely rely on poke from the very beginning will most likely lack the necessary aim and footwork to be good.
Playing without poke for a while seems the best way to improve those things, but certainly not the only one.

Quote:
Nor should they be judged if they compete or not, a player is either good, or he isn't
Well, if you meet an unknown player who claims to be good - how do you evaluate his assertion? You could ask about his achievements, but then again, you said that one should not define a player's skill solely by his achievements (which i agree with). So, wouldn't be the best way to engage yourself in a serious duel with him? Measuring his skill against your own - in a small form of competition which is exactly what a duel is about.
So, if he refuses to compete, you can't say for sure if he's good or not. You may have an idea if he was good at some point by looking at his achievements - but that's about it really.

In Europe, almost all of the best players compete in the ESL and it has been 'the' league in Europe for some time now. In America, where you are from, i think, the ESL never really was popular in your continent - that's why you havn't really heard of it, until probably more recently because of the more and more American-based players that are competiting in the ESL too.

So yeah, the ESL isn't really 'just coming along popular', it has been for a while now, probably the most competitive league to compete in, especially where euros are concerned anyway ;o.
