teh new 1337 boost-trick u just GOTTA use.

Post by Harold|ZBN »

ok so first we had the so called "broomstick" and some ppl used it and some didnt. in the end it was pretty much everyones opinion that it was lame. it was mainly lame because: it wasnt really hard to pull off, AND almost imposible to stop. so it got taken out.

the "pass me on third jump" thing is a pain in the arse to defend but is still a valid tactic imo as a defender should be able to do something about it. hard maybe but with active defence hard to pull off aswell. now ppl are starting to use a new trick.

with the new trick off boosting some1 sky high and passing the ball to him when hes using his 4 jumps to "float" and he then goes on to volley it down. same as the first boost trick. easy to do no way of stopping it. so before half the community gets used to it i think it should get taken out before it turns into a big problem again.

or u could ofcourse change keeper volley latency back to zero. that way the attackers have the boost trick which u cant defend against and the keeper has 0 volley latency which u cant score against.... that way it evens out nicely.

I love how when someone finds a way to score besides shooting, it gets taken out.

not.

Give people time, it's defendable, just let people figure it out.

Btw, your "anti-broomstick" sucks.

the solution: set-jumping

when did i say this? like what... 4 months ago?

BTW, your anti-broomstick sucks and wouldn't be needed at all if you bring back set jumping.

Broomstick goals were a major problems in earlier versions of DB. But this new style is not so much of a problem tbh, I find that now I can Quad Jump I can sometimes intercept the attacker in the air. I think this new style also requires 3 ppl to pull it off correctly (Mark up!)

Not really our problem to worry about Harold, if defence is willing to let an attacker get within 15 meters or so, there are problems elsewhere ;)

gim, problem is that nobody did that stuff against us. just PP did evil stuff against us once, it seemed unfair
but I cannot judge the defendability of it yet, but there wont be a new version in august anyway, so nuff time


DiStUrbeD: look, what people call 'cross volley' is a new thing, but its very fair to defend, so its good there...that new volley thing is unfair, so it has to go

if you play perfectly you should be able to get no goals against you, thats important

So lets see...

everything is fine until someone does it to you?

K that sounds real fair.

Also its very fair and its defendable, there is no reason for it to be removed.

i completely agree with surge on this one, set-jumping was good.
