Are the shoutcast commentaries recorded and uploaded somewhere?

12% shafters in 1on1 games is boring

Yea but they both had 60ms ping.

25% LG or better with a ping under 70 isn't terribly hard...12% = badly off. I haven't seen the demos yet so I dunno what happened.

lg effi means less than nothing. mine is always really low cos of the way i use it. doesnt mean im not hiting much

word

Go and watch some American sports if you think statistics matter.

Serox is right , its stupid to judge a game by lg effi... cuz it depends of the way you use it B<

Well i didnt specifically mean the % i meant both players shaft is really poor and it suck watching two 60 pingers in the final

whine detected @ cid

shaft percentage is a pretty retarded way to judge a match (this even assuming your opinion matters, which it does not).

great tactics by reppie on dm4 throughout the whole tourney, karol just sexy in general as is customary. you'll get him next time kurwa B}

imo a great rl beats a great shaft on all maps except dm6... and why do u wanna see a good shaft? if the game is good anyway

yes razor, it is true. you have a 'mean' or 'effective' shaft which of course do not mean you get 30% efficiency with the lg on aero otherwise your lg is lameass. The distinction between 'efficiency' and 'effectiveness' is an important one, especially when you gauge the former by a % only.

otherwise i often use the terms interchangably, but i certainly don't think of efficency in terms of a number.

I think of reppie, razor and ins as very efficient players, though not necessarily in terms of a %. Btw, a great tourney for both ins and reppie. congrats, xhrl

razor, a great shaft is murder on dm4. see: griffin vs paradoks, reload vs sub.

Boring game imo.
This is whos best at playing with 60ms tourney

Even I, a person who started watching QW demos just months ago, have noticed (and commented to some ppl over IRC) how _meaningless_ the shaft percentage truly is.

Check out xamp (or champ?) for example.. He NEVER uses his shaft unless he can see the enemy.. it's almost as if he were playing to have a high LG %, never wanting to waste some. At least I noticed so while watching the last duelmania demos.

For instance, ParadokS (a guy I watch a LOT of), sometimes shoots to a teleporter or to a corner, just IN CASE the opponent shows there.. And while that is (usually) good playing, anticipating someone will pop out somewhere... it lowers your shaft percentage.

What's my point? I think percentage means nothing, maybe the "better" shaft is a 15% than a 25%, if it worked when you needed it to.

all you need to say is "shaft spam" and the issue is settled

but i actually agree.. even with conciderable lg spam, players like insa and reppie and pretty much everybody in this tourney from round 1, can pull off at LEAST 25% lg. it is not a "meaningless" number. it becomes "less meaningful" if a LOT of lg spam is involved (I dont think lg spam lowers more than 5%...)

anyway i think "total lg hit" would be a nice statistic to take note of...

definitely ggs

Swift imo griffin vs para match was a rape because para was rushing like mad. After each spawn jumping straight to lg/ga. In other words para allowed griffin to get high lg% (which was only 32% actually and is not THAT high)

And yea some call it shaft spam but its more like shaft prediction shot. So yeah that reduces your lg%.

naah it's useless to spamm lg, just wait and shoot when you see the enemy aka champ style.

and somepeople even try to save those preciuos LG shells and open doors etc with shotty

It counts as hit if you shoot to open a door

#21, why waste cells on doors?

So you get a good % and everyone one CHTV thinks you're the fucking best shafter in the world, even if you lose -3 - 999

Dudes. Just kill the fuckers wtf r u all whining about.
