Clog Ruining Game with Full Push

This strategy will ruin legion td. Pretty much leek full on 5/6 to get huge lumber, then send enough to end 7; or could even be repeated for 10 I'm sure. The whole point of ltd is to balance push with holding, and end with a strategic send. If it becomes full push and who can outlast, LTD will turn into something broken that no one wants to play.

Saw a similar post about this in lihl forum where the person got trolled. But anyway, figured I would bring it up here since apparently its going to take over the meta. Really think a rule should be made about this.

@thor_god Well considering they intentionally clogged ur more than welcome to post a ban request on them here: viewforum.php?f=8 Just click "New topic" and fill in the information

By reading their chat, and how they played, you can clearly see all 4 agreed to intentionally clog (Clogging is still bannable, by the general rules, as they are exploiting the map)

EDIT: Nvm i posted it viewtopic.php?f=8&t=103276 , seems like they did it more than 1 game, Just wait for the moderators to review and process that later

Thanks for reporting

Hahaha dude... This shit strat is so fucking old You speak of it like it's something new, tho we had people doing this many many years ago already If you haven't figured out how to counter this yet you should play mega/euro instead. It's so easy to beat now with reduced clogging.

@Akitos he wont need to know how to beat clogging since its against the rules to use it.

It's still funny to read something like "this strategy will ruin legion td" :'D

Gotta be honest, if the meta turns into this strategy only you don't think it will ruin ltd? Regardless its banned anyway as he said so whatever.

Maybe it would, maybe it won't. Either way glad there are rules against in anyway.

In lihl many players stopped playing 4on4 because of this "metachange". So actually it is ruining ltd

Yeah, its significant enough to alter the game. Can see why you wouldn't want to 4v4 if this is legal. It really is an easy fix, either make a definite rule against it to leave ambiguity out or alter the king/lumber/levels so the strategy isn't effective.

@thor_god

Indeed it is an old strategy, and yes it can be counter quite easily, but in my opinion, it ruins LTD by making games super long and boring.

But there is a discussion and a survey about this clogg issue. I invite you to share your opinion on it where it will be more usefull here : viewtopic.php?f=9&t=103479
