They most definitely develop local cultures. Of course for GW2 the Megaservers pretty much killed that in PvE but it still exists to some degree in WvW. <br /><br />YB's particular brand of annoying, stubborn defensive play that has made us so loathed by so many servers that have had to deal with it was considerably diluted and altered by the experience of the last few months. We've had more open-field fighting in the latter half of this year than I can remember since the glory days of the one-day matches after launch. <br /><br />Now that TC and some others have moved on, though, we seem to be going back to our old ways, only now we do things faster. Due to the way Glicko works, however, I see little chance of us ever getting into T1. This week, for example, we could come first in T2 and drop a place in the overall ranking from 4th to 5th because SoS, who are spending the week in T3, are destroying it and will come back two places higher than they left.<br /><br />I dread to think what it must be like in T3 for IoJ and NSP, having been thrashed week after week by DB and then getting SoS, who are even stronger, as a replacement. T3 used to be the place to be but it looks like a hell-hole right now.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-18534253205842809692014-12-28T17:08:44.871+00:002014-12-28T17:08:44.871+00:00This just reinforces my sentiment that it could be...This just reinforces my sentiment that it could be fun to face the Yak in T1. Of course, any but our usual two or three opponents would be refreshing, but you make it sound like the Yak plays quite differently from some of the others. It could happen.<br /><br />-- 7rlsy<br />BeastgateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
