Good
free players, I don't really know, all I know is I won the last 20-30 games I played, after losing the first 3-4. It was getting so bad they were having me come to their channels, recruiting other people to play me telling them "You need to play Ywfn, he's really good".
I think many people here have had similar experiences, which is why they think the way they do about how easy it is to pick up these types of maps.
I agree with Ywfn. The first few times I played free I got smoked. But it wasn't long before I started winning against the best "free" players. Like one free game I played, I joined and he was like "no magic". Wasn't surprised by this newb rule, free maps are all newb maps. Anyway his 5000+ games and newb "no magic " rule enabled him to win every battle whenever I attacked, until I noticed he had this really gay layout: he made a wall of raxes that prevented his men from getting to his townhalls and gold mines. So I landed some sappers behind the trees, blew a hole in the treeline, and set up raxes and towers in his own base. I then procceeded to rape him silly before he knew what happened. He then broke his own "no magic rule" and tried to dk me. He still got raped. I asked him why he cheated and he said, "because you did something I didn't expect" Almost all the damn players who play these newb maps are the same way.
I can't even begin to count the number of elite "archers only" newbs I have raped. Then I get called names for not using their same tired cookbooked strats. Any sign of inovation at all and these newbs fold. Here's a list of some of the rules these newbs have thrown at me "in game" after the game has started: "No lumber raping. No mill raping. No hall raping. No back raxing. No flank attacks. Etc. Etc"
you are surprised? most of the bne gow fastest players that host games like "g0w2x2g00d~!~!" are the same way.

BuRnt, where you playing when ~ToK~, krack (and the rest of {dbc} for that matter), UT, and a whole bunch of other great players/clans were around?
If not, you haven't beaten the best.

Hmm, I've always thought the whole point to free was speed. I'm surprised the really high level free players don't consider macro-ing cheating.

By macro, did he mean using a third party program that produces units for him? I hope he means he macro qith his mouse as "i click fast on everything" because if he rly cheats using a 3rd party program he should definatly be banned for a lifetime from these forums. And i hope such programs doesnt exists.

When I used to play (as I was an upper-tier Free player and associated myself with many upper-tier Free players) macro-ing WAS considered cheating.
Well, thats a shame: using third party programs to get better at a 10 year old game.

Yes, i'm sure that he means using a third party program to produce units for him and yes, such programs do exist.
Either way, back when I played a better player could usually spank a macro-er.

How do you get those tighht ranks in normal gow games?
Once upon a time i played this free map where i killed ally my allies then fought 4 comps that made grunts that shot cannons and melee cats and all sorts of Crazy shit. Took me over 3 1/2 hours to beat it cuz they could build so fast i nearly lost. Ran outa pauses so i had to lagg to give my fingers a break. I had way over 10k kills and forget how many units but my rank wasn't that high. How u do that shit?

LOL free players use macros because even clicking a single button over really fast requires too much skill.

I never one suspected Krack of macro-ing, but I'm pretty sure that MetuZ macro-ed.
Krack was simply good...beatable, but good.
