Is Awhassa Drop not allowed?

Postby Yudi » 09 Jan 2014, 10:31

When you Ctrl + K an Ahwassa to a building for Air Crash, it is abusive? There are some people who told me that it is cheating.

as far as i know there is no such thing as cheating (unless you use special cheatibg programs or something like that), there is a list of banned exploits on forums, every thing else should be said before game by players as a game rules, if you breack game rules you are just a very bad persone who will be kicked from games, by players who know you.

also i heared that you can be warned by moderators if you team kill too much without good reason...

Edit: of course landing ahwassa or czar or soulripper on something on purpose is not cheating -_-

To add to it, the Ahwassa is not nearly as reliable for crashing compared to the CZAR. The CZAR will almost always fall good, the Ahwassa won't, because of its higher speed and smaller size.

Also, they do 10K death damage. That is enough to kill economic structures, shield generators and SMDs, but not a commander or a factory. In return, the enemy gets a lot of mass.

I don't think it's a big deal when you do that, also because there is a big chance they get shot down and then crash in the base anyway.

NO, Ahwassa is far better than Czar cause it is indefinitely harder to stop it from reaching its target, also 10k DMG doesnt kill a commander, but 10k crash + 11k bomb damage kills an ACU. With a little training you will land it on spot 99% of the time, so that ain't a big deal.

This is assuming that the Ahwassa can break through a series of shields. Which it can, but if it can, so can the CZAR with its 3333.33 dmg/s beam. While you might be able to make a good Ahwassa crash with a bit of training, I haven't had a single CZAR fail a crash. Ever.

Crashwasa will kill a t3 arty 100% of time so its an issue imo.

Really? The Aircrash make 10000 damage and all arties have more health.

The bomb can be countered by a bit of micro toggling one shield off and another on. I think 4 t3 shields are enough to hold forever.

Of course Ctrl + K is a valid tactic. Infact, I've even done it to my ACU deliberately in game to force a draw with a superior opponent. Any conceivable in game command (not otherwise banned) is acceptable. If there are game rules, these must be stated BEFORE THE GAME STARTS.

I think your use of the Awhassa was perfectly legitimate. Furthermore, rules have no application within a ranked match. If the game is ranked and host makes rules do not consider yourself bound to follow them (you may tell him if you wish) but I usually don't. Rules are not applicable when playing for score.

In my opinion, people only ban behavior/complain/call cheats when they get beaten by an innovative tactic and are too lazy to either prevent it or find a solution to counter.
