You are still assuming equal eco and sane start times which doesn't make any sense. Not to mention that you can defend a finishing Para from a mavor without much effort.
There are no "no rush" and "no attack" agreements when someone starts game ender when people play serious. If that player is close, you team up with somebody and attack, if he is far away - start game ender race. I had a game ender fight on Ocean Fortress when i managed to build Mavor while team with Yolona tryed to kill team with Paragon. I made Mavor and killed about 5 Paragons and a couple Rapid fire artileries so that team lost.
Spoiler: show
I saw people defending from Yolona, scathis, Salvation. Never from Mavor. I count it not possible untill you prove othewise.
In theory(asuming you use only aeon tech) you could trash sky above para with air units and put a huge assist on shields. If that worked, i'd just kill anti nukes and still kill para.
If you can find me 10 ladder games with game enders in the last 2 months you can say Seton's is irrelevant. In reality it is the only map that really is relevant.
Irrelevant argument. There is no real opportunities to build game ender in ladder for a lot of reasons: too little big maps (and those big maps are comparitevly small), map meta that somewhat promotes being agressive, 99% people playing cybran, ect. I Sure if you compare Ladder and Thermo, there will be more game enders on thermo. I doubt i could find a ladder game even with heavy T3 arty.
