[quote who="SoFFacet" reply="16" id="2291540"]Words[/quote] Premades aren't playing at the "highest level of the game" because there currently isn't one. There is no team support in the game, so the number of premade vs premade games are extremely low. Right now premades are only playing against pugs, so by your logic premades right now are aren't worthy of providing their opinions on balance either. You can make the claim that premades have a higher knowledge of the
[quote who="regabond" reply="5" id="2291397"]It is better to put a requested player skill level in the title than saying premades or teams only. As that will normally lead to some average teams, few really good teams, and mostly below average teams. If all randoms know how to play the game and are well experienced then they will know how to communicate and will function just as well if not better than most premades. They are most certainly the real deal. Though we should
[quote who="WickedBear" reply="22" id="2291063"]Except the fundamental point of this thread is counter productive if thats the case. Those who don't care who they play against are going to do whatever they can to get the game going. Those who are in it to steam roll, thrive on other people's reactions to what they do, making it more "fun" for them. This thread is just throwing fuel on that desire of theirs.[/quote] I guess. This whole thing will be moot anyways when friend support is

[quote who="ItchyDustbin" reply="9" id="2290974"]But my time is wasted when people don't label their game "not a pre-made", and I spend 20-40 mins beating them with randoms because they had a bad random player.[/quote] In a PUG vs PUG, the chances of one of the teams being dominated because they had a game-breakingly bad player is lower than the PUG team being dominated in a Premade vs PUG. Also, in a PUG vs PUG both teams have an equal chance of a bad player on their team.</p

[quote who="Busdude" reply="10" id="2290579"]They're overpowered enough as it is, especially on cataract and crucible, they don't need this as well.[/quote] Towers are only overpowered on Crucible, and that's a design flaw of the map, not the skill.
No, you're not the only one. It happens to me too, and a lot of other people. But there's advice in this thread that may help: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/357636
You mean bat swarm, not mist, correct? Anyway, it's a well known "issue" but as far as I know there has never been any official response on whether it's intended or not. Either way you can do the same thing with a warpstone, but then that's 5k gold down the drain. Really, Crucible is just a bad map. I hope it gets redesigned or removed, but I doubt that will happen.

I don't think it should even be part of a skill line. Just make it a seperate skill like Regulus' tracking device and make it avalible at level 5 or 10. Preferably 10, since at level 5 4 gold per second might be too big of an advantage so early.
[quote who="Spooky" reply="11" id="2290180"]Pantheon works fine.[/quote] When there aren't bots in half of my Skirmish or Pantheon matches I'll be able to agree with you.
If Reg tries to use his mines up-close I just interrupt him. Personally I think it's one of the easier skills to interrupt, next to Hammer Slam and Structural Transfer.
[quote who="Anesthesiac" reply="9" id="2290154"]I get matched in pantheon games in a few minutes tops, and generally the game begins without a hitch. Once in a while it will hang on "waiting for other players," but I don't see that as being related to pantheon. One time I ended up in a game that was 3 humans versus me and 2 AIs, another was 3 humans vs. 3 AIs, and another was 2 humans vs. 1 human (with no AI). These were all stupid, but these are the only "broken"
[quote who="Anesthesiac" reply="7" id="2290122"]Also, I wish people would stop announcing to new players that pantheon is broken and that they should play custom games.
