Tcbb's Invincible anti-turtle grey formation competition.

Tcbb.... · 09-04-2005, 04:11 AM

Inspired by Twelve's success. I decided to run my own tourney. Ever since I returned 3 weeks ago, I have been using mostly a formation I call the hammer fomation. Most people consider it to be a n00b formation and lose to it dumbfound. For mysterious unknown reasons, it also beats all my other formations when I was testing it.

Now, here is a picture of the Hammer formation I just talked about. Of course, like all other formations, it has its weekness. I designed it as an anti-turtle formation; and you can probably guess that a bomb or spread formation will destroy it.

So, this is the challenge: beat my formation with a grey turtle formation you would normally use. To qualify as a turtle, no unit should pass the central line(or it could be considered as a spread). Here is Bottle's formation as an example. My whole point of this tournment is to show the grey world a formation that has an advantage against grey turtle and the turtle formation isn't the only formation for grey. So if you use a formation specially designed to counter my formation, the game would be pointless.

I don't have much reward to give except a fun and challenging game for all the paticipants, and a little bragging right for the winner. Since this formation isn't luck proofed, you have to win more than lose in at least 2 games to qualify as the champion. If you are interested, find me in Great Lake. If you see me online, I am probably in the lobby of Great Lake.

Wtfth, is that really Bottles formation?

I designed it on my own. How do you know its Bottles? Did he say it anywhere in the forums? I am not saying I dont believe you.

I will give it a try when I catch you on.

Tcbb, what about people who normally use spreads? Or are you just going to ignore them?

I'm in.

I think my grey turtle already has a positive record against this form, but I guess some of those games were in your relative beginningness of greydom. I'll play.

ricardu · 09-04-2005, 08:32 AM

am in.

Mithrandir · 09-04-2005, 11:39 AM

I tried a setup like that a little, never mastered it though. I'd love to see how well it would work if it was used well.

Are drops prohibited or discouraged?

Forest_Archer · 09-04-2005, 12:10 PM

I'll gladly try. Some noob made a "forest archer" gold account in Great Lakes lol but you can find me at GL with a grey account just like my gold name, Forest_Archer.

It's in his strategy guide. Most turtle formation are similar to it.

I am not so sure about "positive". But this has definitely evolved from the formation you played 1 year ago.

Not many people use spread, and if I do meet one, I will just hand my ass to it.

I am online now in GL now.

allstarGL · 09-04-2005, 01:08 PM

I think this is the form swifty used last night that I beat him with the units in my sig. I did turtle also. If I can beat him with 9 I might be able to beat you with 10 seeing as it is your form and you have experience at it.

Tcbb.... · 09-04-2005, 02:00 PM

Swift was trying my form. He just beat me(though I d/c). He played very well, and exploit fully the formation's weekness.

But since we agreed before the game that this doesn't count as a tournment game, this tournment hasn't finished

The difference between your tournament and 12's is that his would only be beaten by the perfect formation that got a bit of luck. Yours can easily be beaten by skill.
