Apparently you have no clue what the "empty square shot" is. Go read the LoS Easy to understand thread. That cleric can be hit easily.

Its a pretty good grey set, I'm just commenting on Duplicity's noobness.

I'm almost certain that he meant it as sarcasm, seeing as he italicized "totally".

True, or he could simply be emphasizing on "totally" to get his point across that the cleric cannot be hit.

Nah.

He was being sarcastic.

But the default does totally own.

I have played 1450 greys who used it, and still gave me a run for my money. Used properly, any set owns. This is no exception. Still not the best, for it is hands down the most difficult to master. The 1450 grey was killmonky. Now there is a grey in GL with the id fresh7 in Jackass Congress. He is pretty damn decent with that set.

Empty Square Shots FTW!!!
I love using them +).
specially when the guy i hit leaves after i do it.
the noob set is good for noobs, but if your slightly more than a noob, this set works so much better :)

it completely pwns the noob set, the cleric is dead in three moves unless the person isn't as noob as their set and counters it. I have another that requires two witches that gets the cleric in one. so there! =D
i just said noob 4 times in one sentence =D
EDIT: um ok i suck at grammar. I said noob(s) 5 times in the post. not in one sentence. forgive me :)

I think I'm the only one that noticed that. By the way, it totally owns because of how everyone's strategy changes when they play this set. First off, myself included, they get very reckless. Most don't even check stats when they see the set. They end up doing stupid moves because they think since you have the noob set you are a stupid player. Second, it is very balanced and far back and almost always forces the players who like to sit back and let you come at them, attack the set. This takes away the lightning ward and all the other defensive elements they have somewhat out of the way. When used correctly, like any set, it owns. Remember it is not the set that makes the player, it is the player that makes the set.

Yeah the default set owns, these are my wins from legends with it. some good ones in it.

Grey vs Grey default wins

I use the noob set almost exclusively...... I do it mainly on grey jumping golds just to brush their ego back a bit... too bad mah school wont let us play any form of games online.... but meh.

Grey noob set is so nice.

I have had the unfortunate experience of being beat by this form "once"
And it too was a high level grey that pwned me.

I took the fight seriously, but fell into the trap of being overconfident and aggressive.

The knights are in the right spots to respond to any threat advanced toward them or their allies.Everything is laid out very well here.

Second, it is very balanced and far back and almost always forces the players who like to sit back and let you come at them, attack the set too true.

I'm doing about as good with the noob set up as I do with my normal set up, stat-wise. My normal set up, I think my highest was like 1280. My account on Army, ISIS, is ranked like 1150-ish I think. Never changed the set up. But I don't use that account much anymore, cause then it sort of looses the "noob" appearence when people check the stats.

Just beat a 1180+ grey with like a 5 chanty set up. Probably would've lost if I used my normal set up, but the noob set up kicked ass. :cool:

I'll bet you it'll be even more difficult to master if you switched the cleric's position with a knight:p

They're alright... none of the songs are too memorable though. For me, anyway. But I was listening to them when I made the account.

edit: just knocked out another 1100+ grey

Why would I lie? It's not for any personal gain and I'm not trying to make myself look better.:rolleyes:

But I'll ask around on Legends and see what proof is available.

Why would I? I don't need personal gain, and I'm already pretty dashing.

Legends is for weak sauce too, now doing it in 30 days on the fps servers. That's a real man's game.


I'm sensing points in irony and reality slip by you, because they are. You're still not getting that whole "It's impossible to prove" thing, are you?

If someone did something like this, it was for themselves, since they can't ever possibly show it to everyone else in proof. You're destroying their accomplishment by setting it as some sort of benchmark for you to randomly toss out (which ironically would be for your own benefit).


Edit: Now, you know what would REALLY be impressive? Someone getting to 1800 using a 10 cleric setup, or 10 chanties. I'd accept the latter too, as really impressive.

You tell me.

Haha. Ironically my thoughts are reciprocal. It's impossible to prove anyway.:p

I'm sensing points in irony and reality slip by you, because they are. You're still not getting that whole "It's impossible to prove" thing, are you?

Of course it's impossible to prove beyond reasonable doubt in this case. I'm not stupid, however a few s/s would hardly damage my argument would they?

If someone did something like this, it was for themselves, since they can't ever possibly show it to everyone else in proof.

They can show it. They can record every game Unfortunateley quliang did not do so.

You're destroying their accomplishment by setting it as some sort of benchmark for you to randomly toss out (which ironically would be for your own benefit).

I wouldn't say so at all. I am merely advertising an impressive achievement. Each to their own however.:)

Now, you know what would REALLY be impressive? Someone getting to 1800 using a 10 cleric setup, or 10 chanties. I'd accept the latter too, as really impressive.

10 Clerics isn't logically possible but 10 Chanties may well be doable. I doubt I will ever see it done though.

He hit 1700 with Default.:bigsmile:

His stats may be 1749 on Legends, but that doesn't mean he earned them to be that high. Many accounts were given to OmegaShin by well known players to keep them active. Shin gained stats on many of these accounts. There are threads on LF about quliang being a great player, but I don't think he hit 1700 playing with the default set up.

Of course his stats alone are not proof of this.

Anyway what are you doing on Legends statting people? You're supposed to be banned *Tsk Tsk*:p

11-27-2007, 03:54 PM
Whether or not an account I own (or myself) was on Legends is irrelevant to this discussion though. I know what I have and haven't done since my ban was instated and it isn't your job to remind me of what I have been allegedly doing.

heh, that was late novebmer... now, Isis is like one of my favorite bands. it takes a while till the music clicks, but once it does, :wub::wub::wub:


Anyway, bumped the thread cause I've been using the noob set up over on legends all the time now. adds a bit more of a challenge, cause now greys have gold units (I leave if a gold jumps me, i hate playing golds).

And the noob set's still kickin ass. :cool: And yea, I like to be a dick when I know I'm winning. haha

no, notice I said I was being a dick. ha.

I topped out about 1200-ish with the noob set up on legends (different account though, i just made pig destroyer yesterday), but it's hard to maintain that. I usually float around 1050-1150.

Default is my setup. No one can use it from now on except killmonky and myself.:bigsmile: Thats because he beat me....we had 1 hour and 30 minute game that came down to knight vs knight. It was a good game. I wish i recorded it... If you have any problems I'll see your ass in court, and you better have a good lawyer. :D

Edit: ive also noticed that when people know that you use a default they will purposely switch to a rush or center setup. So if your known for using a default you have to switch to a normal setup every now and then just to throw people off.
