Too many people is whining about IWAY teams.
I don't think it's such a huge problem, when I play at Herors I do it with a gale warrior or my boon prot monk.

I have never been on IWAY team, but I have faced them more than ones. Honestly I don't think they are that overpowered, if you have an okay team you can take them.
Personally I fear a ranger spiker team alot more than IWAY. I think it's sad when I see people saying, "nerf 55monks, nerf IWAY etc."

Why can't we just live with the fact that IWAY is here to stay....

There is nothing wrong with IWAY it is just the fact that so many teams play it and it just makes Hero's boring playing the same build over and over and over and over..... and over again. I think people should stop complaining about the about IWAY and just live with it, at weekends my guild run nothing but anti-IWAY builds as it is all we come up against, with the exception of a few very good r9+ balaced teams. All you need to counter IWAY is aegis chain and dust trap and then IWAY is as much good as a chocolate fire guard.

So too all the people out there that complain about IWAY shut up, make an anti-IWAY team and get yourself a free trip to Hall's

the problem with iway, is that it will completely own a disorganized PUG (and some organized ones), without having real organazation in itself. it's an easy build to run (every character relies on itself) that kills other builds efficiantly.

and people will say that iway isnt that easy to run, and i agree, it's not *that* easy. to run a good iway, you ned to arrange the pirits right, have warriors who can understand how to spike targets by themselves so on, so forth...

i used to think iway was a very good build to run, and that there was nothing wrong with it.
that feeling changed when i was rank 2, and i led a group of rank 0s in an iway group. we reached halls after a 5 consecutive win run, against balanced builds and iway.
when complete noobs (and we were) can reach halls, something is wrong with the build

P.S:
i dont think it should be nerfed though, since there seems to be less iways and more balanced recently.

It isn't. And this thread won't be very long either.

I had over 100k faction from GvG and 1 fame. Rank doesn't mean anything.

I always preferred the more balanced tombs before the Build of the month stuff came along. but whatever blows your skirt up... Iway will eventually be replaced with the next build of the moment... and so on and so forth... That's why I normally stay out of Heroes Ascent unless its with guilies or other friends... Its one thing to win or loose. But upon doing either to be called names for it... that's what su(ks... Whats wrong with a simple gg once in a while. wouldn't kill ya... Instead of all the trash talking leet speak little worthless... AHHHHHHH Well that's why I don't bother with it anymore anyway... Don't need the added stress. this is suppose to be a game afterall. Its suppose to be fun. when its not I eliminate that portion for what is... and that's playing with my friends in Co-Ops, or New Tombs, Or missions to help someone, or whatever... Sometimes Team arenas or GvG... Whatever we feel like that day. the min it starts getting nasty. well we go find something better to do.

i used 2 think PvP is boring (that was about 2 months ago) well i got asked 2 go 2 a PvP so i did got some fame thought quite cool, then IWAY like blew up so i made a counter build for myself IWAY never stood a chance, espeicially when we had a team devoted to countering IWAY, then gradually over like 4 days i thought cant be assed always when you would defeat a IWAY i would say

"GG nice try GL next time"

bein kind to people who cant think of there own builds and hav to get free fame. then like 10 replies saying

"STFU u n00b we just messed up thats all w8 till we go again"

i was like watever just caus youre free fame build never worked

then 5 mins later (when our team got whooped, by a really good team and gg to them) we adjusted our build to counter that type of threat whislt still thinking IWAY is out there, so we go in agian.

we end up getting the exact same IWAY group and they recongize us they say

"prepare to go down n00bs we got experts here"

5 mins later they all go down flawless win to us and more

"gg hf next time"

"STFU n00b i can take u myself"

well now iv stopped PvP(might start again when CHAP 2 arrives)caus of the IWAY that get soooo angry when they lose (as well as everyone) just caus our team came up with a unique build to counter IWAY and other builds.

well thats my 2p in

Either turn the Local Channel off or ignore any comments. PVP is causing and stiring a lot emotions and immaturity doesn't know rank, fame or the ladder. The percentage of those retards is high, learn to accept it and take it with a smile while they go bald, impotent and die of some freaking heart-attack.

IWAY may now have a lot of counters: but teams should not have to make an anti-IWAY build to succeed in HA.
