In Response To: Re: Easy, killer (Eisen Feuer)

Toby- I just finished reading your long and well written response to my "rant"

A) I could have used less harsh and more specific language to write that post, but when I look at it it's exactly how felt.

B) Let me scecify on thing: as in my previous post, I called the people that had responded negatively to WaLKa's post noobs, not the entire HBO community; I also have many friends within this community, I even play the occasional game with Wu and his own friends (KP, Reconciliation, Schooly D) but the misinformation that the posters where acting on zealously was pretty thoughtless on their part.

C) here's the deal on Plasma Grenades: as with all grenades, Plasma Grenades have time in the air before getting to their target. The truth is (unless you are within melee distance) that your opponent can move out of the way as not to get stuck before the grenade reaches it (the 90% luck part). Secondly, WaLKa didn't say it didn't take ANY skill to stiick people, he said the luck invariably outweighs the skill factor.

I agree that plasma grenades take quite some skill. Their slow speed coupled with their arching trajectory make them very hard to master especially at long distances, but you cannot deny the massive luck factor involved in throwing them. The grenade and the target have to be in the same place, at the same time, and as many of you may have noticed, plasma grenades aren't heat seakers.

Eisen out-
