GST
 

What do you guys think of GST?

TBH personally i think its fun a great way to spar with your friends with a reward for passing 1st round then getting in final but for me its about the fun as well i enjoy doing it every 3 months its also 1 of the only reasons why i still play

Laggy as hell, rumoured that rufus rigs it yeah sounds pretty kewl

LMFAO

LOLOLOL entertain me more please

Yah lmao I saw it in someone's status a few GSTs ago I think it was dark or something :0

Wanna lap dance?

Yes please, at least you're good at one thing!

lmao whats beef

Not the only thing, nice try.

Oh I know something your good at! Pulling 2d pixel girls GJ bro <3

Girls of the play boy guild house :D

Imagine 100 Yui's spar each other. That's the GST

LMFAO ! MY SIDES HELP !

Gay Spar Teams suck.

Lelel..

Its a laggy ***** fest full of ******s who think they're pro on a iphone game rated ages 3 and up.
Thats what I think.

But didn't someone practically lead your guild to 1k who pulls pixel girls too?

If your thinking of mood that's his irl wife.

I hate the GST. Players who mainly spar have given a bad name for themselves. The way I look at it most of them are arrogant assholes who ignore everything you say. It's really why I don't bother attending unless in getting paid to.

Hey GOAT! I think this guy likes hentai!

I find the opposite. I've met friends, become closer to people, and had great times with both people who mainly spar and people who do not thanks to the GST. About 90% of the people I know will talk and answer anyone who talks to them, because there really is just no reason to ignore people. They are all really friendly and honest people! I feel like this post was written with a select few players in mind who tend to have bad attitudes more than half the time you interact with them. While people like this exist, there are so many more who fit the description of a good friend. I also believe that the GST shouldn't be blamed for the way some people act negatively.

We've obviously played very different Graal games. I go to the Battle Arena and all everyone does is be an asshole. They are very arrogant and think they are amazing simply because they have wasted their lives away tapping a button on a virtual game. I've not once met a nice sparrer and I honestly mean that.

I hate to say it, but iHot's description is more accurate NOAWDAYS. I ignore because I don't feel like typing at all on an iPad... Heh

So if I'm married and still playing Graal with my wife, you wouldn't make fun of me? Or you're just being nice to your friends, but not to people you don't consider on your good side.

GST isn't rigged, US loses, they also have members kicked for being laggy. I personally think it would be nice if an admin could walk out into the field where everyone can see and explain why they restart some rounds, but they do restart some rounds to be fair. I actually wish GST took a little longer also, to give a little more time before each match for teams to get all their players ready.

I can find someone in the main spar that's pretty cocky, but not every day. I don't think sore losers are something specific to sparring either.

I did feel like I had to endure a lot of pc hate before the majority of the server got over that.

Back onto the topic of this tread, what Clops says is 99.99% accurate.

Clops hit the nail right on the head on all subjects. I do want to put emphasis on one fact he pointed out; Arrogance is not limited to, and should not only be associated with, sparring.

Perhaps our experiences differ. From the sounds of it, I can guess you probably haven't met me or any of my friends, though. :(

Winter, you're the biggest ass in the battle arena

aww

oh did i say you are the biggest ass in the battle arena? I meant you have the biggest ass in the battle arena*

Lolololololol fk sry ketchup must spread before i give you a rep

Ok how bout this I'll add you into the "Nice Sparrer list" because you honestly don't seem like the other sparrers.

You deserve a cookie. You handled that well.

lol
NO because you would be having real smex with her and atm you having pixel smex so lol. But people might call you guys losers but idk
he prefers kisses from hot boys 0o

Why does everyone hate on Vlad? He's a cool guy if you get to know him

fixed*

LOL funny thing that's true someone I know said he asked for nudes (I won't say who)

When you say hate on it implies that the hate is coming from jelousy. If you say hate Vlad then it means that they don’t like him. If you take the time to read since pg 1 you will notice xenthic posted first and then people quoted him so hes not hating on anyone hes just replying to being quoted.
lol

I think GST is fine it serves as a break from towering for a lot of the guilds. I have purposed ways to change it up or add to it in other threads. I think they could have singles spar tourny,or a team tourny (group of 2-5). Idk how it works exactly,but maybe with smaller teams there wouldn't be an issue of having players on and ready.

lelelel

GST is just meh to me, I come from PC where tag team spars are the team-based sparring format and it's much prefered. Obviously that can't be done because of time restraints on iClassic, but I just find the GSing thing to be disorienting and annoying.

I can see how it would be enjoyable to the average person who doesn't spar very often though. Their only expectation is to probably get past the first round and get their GST lobby prize.

Also, if you guys avoid sparring because the BA community is mean to you then quit being a little girl. I get people talking trash to me every day and I just ignore it and queue. I have to deal with losers like Ethereal Mirage telling weird and fabricated fairy tales about how I'm some mythical spar hacker from PC Graal who can extend the length of my sword (what) and "blink longer," and then there are the freaks who go on an alternate account just to follow you around and harass you over a spar win or loss. IDK, just forget about the social aspects of the game if you actually care to spar. I agree that 90% aren't likable and that's why I enjoy beating them.

I thought everybody who spars knows there gonna get hated on by "pro" sparrers? I've always been called noob or a lagger when I beat one of the them.

You must consider more people pro than I do. I don't know of any "pro" that calls people noob. Everyone complains about lag on this server. It's really laggy.

I'm not a fan of how guild sparring is done here on this version. It's all over the place, hard to be consistent, and in my opinion -- less consistent in regards to true skill levels/ceilings.

I probably do have a wider range of player I would call pro then most. I'm just one of those seasonal sparrer's that only spars the week prior to a GST.

Those are not "pros," those are the everyday 1200-800 sparrers who went positive on their third account and now have an inflated ego.

Hahah, those numbers are extremely accurate!

if you call yourself a "pro sparrer", you're trash.

I'm a pro sparrer come vs me n00b cronko.

I'm a pro spammer does that count?

^^^

It's not really a surprise that people who don't spar and otherwise have no realistic chance of winning a GST don't exactly have a positive opinion about it. I find the general resentment towards sparrers to be pretty hilarious though so I encourage it more.

I came up with a new format as part of the GST. GST Draft-Players would go to battle arena and put in 500-1k to join a draft pool. Then either players will be selected at random to be the captain of the guild that will select the remaining players in the pool but are not allowed to see there spar stat.

Or all the players in the pool are randomly placed into guilds with other randomly selected players Until all guilds spots are evenly filled. goes by first come first serve meaning the first ones to pay and sign up for the draft get picked first. The remaining participants will get put on a reserve list and if a player isn't online at the designated tournament spar time an currently online member of the reserve pool is sent a pm asking if they want to join the spar team and to come to the arena within 5-10 minutes.

People complain about pro spar guilds dominating the GST's, So I thought it might be good to come up with a do-able format to randomize the teams to allow for new winners every GST. So how about it peeps? A GST type draft tournament? You might get pros you might get stuck with noobs.

I think the gst is fun, the prizes are cool(i only have the whistle so far xD)

but people in the BattleArena are mean, like honestly, i beat this one guy once, he spammed me saying "Lucky" "you noob", so i rematch-ed him and beat him again...what happens? he keeps spamming me "you just got lucky" so i just ignore him...honestly some people need to abate their ego

not to name names but....*cough* *cough* callum adelphoes *cough* *cough*

People in the battle arena are mean, one time someone called me Lucky for winning. Oh how he was so mean!
