i joked about this in the mess hall..
but now i'll say it more seriously here.
for a serious discussion..
After today's demonstration and previous play by Jozha and DasDuelon the S>E vertex of the S>E>A>S
triangle of imbalance is in serious doubt.
The game is balanced. The more obfuscated and convoluted the explanation of "imbalance" becomes the lower its probability of being true.

Based on the results of over 1000 Conquer Cup games in the past 11 weeks : the game is balanced.

above all:
nice games DasDuelon.

Yayy DasDuelon won :D:D

Yes, but he didn't win nukestrike's Soviets. So it's not all that it could be.

i beat him in all ccups and tourneys, but he's good in EvA (maybe cuz empire is stronger than allies in this match up) and most players are allies or empire..dunno, shame i lost to firglis clone so i couldnt play with him, would be good games, but still its quite strange that some factions have obviously advantage in some match ups and its about bracket luck if soviet (me) get only empire or soviets in bracket i cannot lose but if i get allies, im always in trouble same if some empire player gets soviets or allied player gets empire...

I missed something, didn't DasDuelon win vs Technique's Soviet...?

But watching nuke's losses, the allied turret pushes really look totally imbalanced.

And wow duelon won tech's soviets with pure tier 2 against monster truck. Havent seen this in a long time, tbh i dno how he won he seems to have lost alot more tsunamis than tech's hammers but the final battle decided it. And the match against tech on industrial and those against firgli were all well played by dasduelon

Yea duelon was playing good tho i still think tbs dugged in are kinda crazy i need to get conscripts or something to clear them cause thats what made me lose imo and the third match was an empire mirror fail for me xD.

I would be pissed off when someone beats me who just played RA3 for these single day and on the otherdays Starcraft.
Nuke, dont be pissed off, you dont lost the firglis clone or some other excuses, you lost because you wasnt able to stop these turrentrush (which I practise so much longer than firgli).
I still dont know why you say "fliglis clone", I not even watch any RA3 game since LS3 ended.

We also could discuss about imbalances but the fact is that this isnat that difficult to stop, your micro wasnt that good yesterday, it was a blame for a "top" player.
Just my 2 cents.

well you were never playin like him but yesterday you played exactly like him, i would bet that firgli played for you if he werent playin yesterday. (also cuz your dog micro was how firgli does it, never saw you doing it before) and im not pissed, u whined about how strong soviets are but you see that every stupid allied mcv push can beat them (its simply fact that allied mcv push is still imba vs soviets, you know it very well) and tbh you played same amount of games like me in ra3 even recently + playing sc should be big plus so dont know what you are talking about but w/e

I whined about sovs some months ago and i thought we just took this down.
But we just played 1 game before our fight sunday.

Tbh. dogmicro isnt that difficult, I dont have to copy firglis dogmicro because its equal or just a few differences.
You are just excusing your fail on sunday and cant believe it that I beat you (or firglis clone -.-).
I still dont know why you say that I copy firgli, wow, same micro OMG clone!!
I never watch BBB replays, I hate BBB, I just try to kill everyone there very fast.
I done these strat when E.Leo was very active in this game (1.08 or something??) so please be quiet.
On Cabana, I just know that I'm death when I take the way to the higher Ore Node, thats easy.
I saw your bears and microet them out, with MY micro.
I got the mapcontrol, saw your reff and decided to take my MCV to your main, I killed your main and your waterexpansion.
Stopped your push and then it was over.
I DON'T NEED TO WATCH BORING RA3 REPLAYS!!!
I dont have to beat some1 in this tourney I just keep myself up there to be trained for ESL and EAMasters, thats all.
When I could I would reinstall these game but I can't because I want to make my clan more famous as it is.

Btw. In the early "dogmicro- times" I had one of the best dogmicro there, there wasnt any other ppl who where able to stop my dogs (it was really new) and now I try the same and I'm successful with it.
I dont give any shit of new strats or something.
I'm just playing Starcraft which improves my micro so much, maybe you should do the same instead of HoN.

no i really dont want to destory my mood by playing sc thx, its so boring, i would rather be politician than to play sc.

Hmm maybe, SC's early is a little bit boring but the rest is ok. =)

How can you handle that horrible graphics? ;/ Omg even warcraft3 graphics are unbareable for me now, even thou I played it 6 years ago!!

and those tower pushes are not that hard to counter, you just need some alternative methods. They are effective if you go standart BO.

Well if you want to become good there isnt any graphiclimit.
I also thought I cant play this, I played and love it.
Same with Super mario Bros, emulator FTW!

Graphic is just an excuse imo.

Yea i dont get why people play on a ps3 either when you can just play the commodore 64.
