I’m good acquaintances with one of their guildies, but at the time I was talking to em I was heavy in a Zerg fight so I didn’t get a chance to really talk to em about it in detail.
It’s a more interesting question than most of what I read on a daily basis. Besides this is a nice an discreet way of asking a matchup question without asking a matchup question.

They're hard at work training their positioning for the upcoming fights. Obviously in the one fight they failed to dodge the first chair, but they will correct that quickly.

Anyway, I believe we where fighting the US zerg on FSP yesterday and I think it was around 20-30 in squad vs 50 all the time. They just stacked on top of each other and trained smaller groups down, as usual. Nothing interesting going on there. FSP is notoriously bad at clouding so cant really counter them very good with random pugs, too few pullers to get through the perma stab.

A disorderly group of Asura. "The gaggle of Asura tried to agree on whether a phase-shifted thermonuclear energy matrix was sufficiently powerful for a device capable of heating bread"
So some say EU won...Some say NA won...so both sides won some and the final verdict is that it was a draw.
Neither side is superior or weaker.
Well done everyone.
Being in NA EST its no good. Multi second desync almost every fight. Still went back a second time because NA is just so dead. Quit for the week both times and transferred back.
Aside from reset and T1 SEA time zone EU groups are generally more active and larger during EU prime than NA is during NA prime. Regarding play styles most groups prefer pirate ship on EU while most groups on NA prefer melee. Imo this mostly has to do with group sizes. NA refers to organized fights as RvRs (same numbers usually) whereas EU calls them BvBs (assume you’re fighting the entire map). NA seldom has queues on weekdays whereas on EU it’s a part of life.
We’ve fought most of the EU groups by now and I feel Deso/Blacktide and Whiteside still offer the most challenge compared to the rest of the servers. Only group that can beat us even numbers are the Blacktide guys. The coming weeks will be very interesting as more people come back from holiday, have geared classes, get used to EU, etc. My ping from US PST is around 180-270ms depending on the scale of fights. Exitlag can reduce this by 10-20ms. Seldom encounter server lag (can’t cast skills) unless it’s a 3-way blob fight.

Haha what does BvB even mean? If its blob then nobody calls it blob vs blob because when there is a full zoneblob (60-80), it rarely engages in "organized" fights. Its usually just there to steamroll the opposition and cap T3 keeps against an enemy that most of the time cannot muster an equal zoneblob. Any organized group 20-50 is a zerg and that covers most of it.

No a Zerg never goes past 35.
Riverside used to run two groups. One full 50 and the excess on another com. They all on one VoIP.

I’ll see if I can chat with em on reset tonight
why should the player base care about this? and you couldn't just pm someone and ask?

I'm curious about the ping, i made an alt for EU but kept getting tripped up when i tried chaining skills together
I was not there the first time they fought us (wsr) in eotm, but I was the second time around, and it was quite easy.

I mean it's nothing surprising, NA coming with all guns blazing and then getting Destroyed by Eu
What was the reason for your win would you know?
Was it because NA was lagging?
Or EU has a larger blob?
Or EU was more skilled?
etc.

I am looking forward to the days you come back to EU and show us what you have got. Last time was pretty underwhelming tbh.
You forgot to add Kappa in the end.
Nothing left to prove. It was an underwhelming experience.
And seems like expandas got it handled.
Show me something worth coming back to, then I might give it a taste. Better give me good coffee.

But isn't expandas in Aurora Glade? Which na team are you guys fighting? Ag Is linked with sfr
Also last week they were in t3 and wsr is in t2.
Are you sure you guys fighting expandas. Unless expandas and team hopping servers every week

Aye, this is true.
However, if you made the choice to go over with the intent on ‘farming’ EU, then I don’t want to hear lag as an excuse from those who did it.
