I was a vouch moderator for 309d entidih. I would vouch every single 2k player on top players for builder play let alone tower basing with them, no vouch application needed, no questions asked. It may not have gotten them on the vouch list because in order to do that, you need to be able to titan, but I'd vouch for their builder.

I don't have much to say in jaet, don't play with him much. I think he played a pretty good tauren.

I agree with Stealer, people will play to win regardless if there is elo or not. Stacking is an issue though, I think the suggestion that to choose titan like trolls and elves is a good suggestion to combat this as it will increase chances of a decent titan the more you stack.

Off topic:
So then titan slot gets removed from ID and during the ''pick'' for titan, all 10 say no and 1 decent says yes? ez
Implement the system to be randomized? Will create more havoc than good.

Essentially, this idea will shift ID in a way that it simply shouldn't be.

This is favorable, otherwise the decent Titan would take the lobby slot so no unskilled Titan can't learn and improve.

You're giving this suggestion the most bad case that could happen, ID at prime time will be more fun because of better games because of better Titans because of people stacking.

I think you're under the impression ID prime times are more popular than they actually are. The most stacked I see lobbies on a daily basis are like 3-4 bti grunt level players for a couple hours (some days I don't even see that). And maybe like once a week for a couple hours ill see like 6-7 bti grunt level players in a lobby, if even that.

Haven't seen a proper answer to this.

But as an ID player, I honestly think getting rid of ELO is a good choice and even myself have a high number to it but there has been countless discussions on it's balance and an approved poll to wipe it pending the completion of our beta phase.

Pretty much with wasted on this. I've been playing pretty much straight titan games on my account IDL_Photon_man. And straight builder on Photon_man24. PM24 is at 1800 ELO. IDL_PM is at ~ 1250.
