I will be teaching two classes of "Noob School" this evening to pay off a bet I made with the notorious pre-mader Unwuffablehedgie.

If you are a beginner and would like to learn some basic strategies please join up.   If you have 100+ games and a 61% win percentage, this game is not for you so please don't join cause I will just kick you out.

The format will be myself and 2 AI against 3 beginners.  I've so far been winning these games but conceding so you guys will at least get your win pecentage up even if you don't listen to my wisdom.

How are you winning with 2 AI on your team? Did they get buffed that much with this patch ?

Split:  Are you being sarcastic or have you never played vs 3 people who are all new to the game?  Actually, i was kinda surprised how easy it is to win even with me constantly talking.  Sometimes I'm even coaching while theyr'e attacking me: "Good good, now you want to hit me with the Pentinence when i try and teleport away... well done!"

Hedgie:  Sorry I accidentally mis-spelled your name.

Hey thanks Macc, but one of the reasons I'm paying off my bet now is I'm stuck in a place with crappy internet for a few days.  When I try and play a game with 6 people it sometimes lags and even if it doesn't, sometimes I get randomly DC'd.  This way theres less people so I don't get lag spikes and if I DC I only have the AI bots to get pissed off at me.

It would be a fun game though... 2 noobs on each side and we see who can yell at- I mean coach them the best.

Its funny that Unwuffablehedgie works, but Unbuggeredhedgie doesn't make much sense.

Tonights noob school was a success if I do say so myself.  Taught a Oak that using shield to avoid damage from first level Ring of Fire isn't a great idea, and showed a UB how to love Spit, Foul Grasp, and stacking armor. 

I feel like I'm really reaching these kids.

This is a very commendable effort! 

I am not quite sure what type of bet begot this new player "school" but we should have more of them. The player-base is already so much smaller than it was even 4-months-ago..."sigh"... perhaps those new-players you are helping today will be some of the heavy hitters when Demi2 is rolled out... sometime in 2020...

Can I sign up? I'm Australian, and a noob.

No, those two don't go together very well. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

I lol'd a lot... always love a good Zoolander reference.

 

Hey anarchist, I'll put you down as a friend and I'll send you a message when I host another game.  I live in Hawaii so the lag ain't bad with you Aussies and we're usually up around the same time.
