By popular request, we'll have a European co-commentator this month. Tune in to watch people get bodyblocked by minions and to see if Happy Feet can back up all the trash he and his guild have been talking.

Ah, I see it now, it was an elaborate scheme to bring hype to Guild Wars GvG matches.

So imagine my surprise when I found out that only one of the matches was successfully uploaded and the rest just seemed to fail.

Thanks for being so convenient, Youtube!


(I'll have the rest up tomorrow, sorry for that)

PvP already has a bad reputation as it is. That link provided by the OP just reinforces it even more.

Not sure if your talking about the same link...the ones I looked at/watched were nothing but d-baggery.

If it makes you feel any better, though, even Europeans thinks rR is silly.

While the commentary you provided didn't lend itself to a negative connotation, the team quitter links in the second post surely did.

Using comfirmation bias(cognitive dissonance) as an arguement, when one themselves has comfirmation bias(egocentric bias) is a logical fallacy.

The Dunning–Kruger effect (basically using all this wiki mumbo jumbo...same crap I just did and am doing) has become the go to in forum debates....thus becomming severly predictable and rather weak. But alas...When in Rome!

rR wins with a very impressive build wars against HSR. Probably one of the only interesting matches we saw all mAT...

What's with all the hate that flies around?.. Especially in those links that were previously given. Anyone who's gotten to that point is probably going to be pretty decent, regardless of what gimmicks they abuse.. and it should be a fun game, not a 'let's hate americans, or euro's, or this person because he did something he thought was a good idea in a round' kind of game.

Just watched it on youtube, maybe you should take some time after the battle to actually discuss some of what was going on, and take it a bit more in depth? I think that would be a nice feature.
