Holy Moly
In the past there has typically been a demand around the forums to have tier discussions of some sort where members would post their personal lists (usually outrageous) and sometimes explain their reasoning. As most of us have seen, things tend to get out of hand after some time and less game discussion happens while bashing of opinions and sometimes personal insults start taking place.
I've been encouraged recently to start up another discussion so I figured it wouldn't be too bad if things were properly moderated and posts were kept in line.
The goal of this thread will be to get some productive SCV related talk happening and to bring in opinions from various regions and player types. I personally think the discussion will be interesting, so I'd like to give this type of thing another shot.
That said I will lay out some basic rules to keep things in line as the thread (hopefully) builds up:
1.) If you are going to post something regarding a character or another post, give an explanation so you aren't just making a blank statement.
Example:
Kilik is bad.
Kilik is bad because _____ (THOROUGH GAMEPLAY REASONS)
2.) If you are going to argue someone's opinion on something they post, explain your own reasons. Simply disagreeing and saying nothing as to why is basically pointless and contributes nothing to the conversation.
Example:
Player A: I believe EdgeMaster has really strong tools all around but struggles with spacing.
Player B: No.
Player A: I believe EdgeMaster has really strong tools all around but struggles with spacing.
Player B: I don't agree with that. I personally think his tools are weaker compared to X,Y and Z and here's why...
3.) The point of this thread (as previously stated) is to spark productive and thoughtful discussion about our game. If you hate tier lists or have a vendetta against certain people's opinions, just stay away from the topic. It's that simple.
4.) Any personal attacks or insults will not be tolerated. Friendly banter is fine, but keep it to a minimum.
5.) When posting a your own tier list, be sure to format it properly so that it makes sense to other people.
Example:
X: Elysium
B: EdgeMaster
7: Kilik
Party Hat: Yoda
S: Elysium
A: EdgeMaster
B: Kilik
C: Yoda
*I would recommend sticking to a SS, S, A, B, C, D, etc... tier system as it is easy to understand and most FG players know what it means.*
Please follow these basic rules if you wish to participate in this thread. FAILURE TO COMPLY (muahahahaha) will result in post deletion or possibly an infraction. Nobody wants that, so let's stay cool in here and just have good discussion.
Now that I am done sounding like a corrupt authority figure trying to keep the people down...
Feel free to post your personal tier lists to start some conversation
I encourage active players to contribute as much as possible. Even if you aren't sure of your ideas, you may find that someone corrects one of your misconceptions or lets you know of something previously unknown.
Have fun and let the discussion begin!
