Re: Why AV can be (at times) better than Arena ever will be

AV FOREVER
Can't really comment on arena, but AV I really enjoy, despite playing many matches in the last few months. BTW I find it more entertaining in the late evening, when kids of both factions are in bed. Chat is funnier with adults around and the whole approch seems to be more relaxed. This coming from an old fart obviously .

Most memorable game so far was -- a turtle! We were around 200 points behind for most of the match, towers gone, big defense zerg. The typical comments about "stupid this & that, this is a loss, l2p " (usually rarer at night) were getting annoying to the point that at around 150 to 80 some people apparently woke up and decided to act. The points differential *slowly* got less. But with something like 10 points left vs. 25 it looked like "game over". Until we got both mines -- and won by about 5 to 0 .

Certainly not a strategical masterpiece or efficient honour farming in any way -- but so much fun.
