The Rule guy and I were the only ones pushing this game on Yam while most the ?kitty cats? on our team camped on the spawn platform (most their caps were probably from retaking our home beacons). And I get ?fluffernutter?ing 4th place?

Ugh, I hate that. Especially on Yam of all maps. At least you managed a 10 bacon game! That's even more impressive considering you did it on Yamantau,

That's even more impressive considering you did it on Yamantau, It was super disheartening seeing our side beacon getting capped when capping their home and side beacon. Half the team was still sitting on the damn home platform. Haven't seen that ?dookie? since Masters It's pretty easy to do with a Loki. Spent half the damn game in that thing hence the low damage.

In a 6v5 too, that hurts.
Loki on Yama is worth the Au for a long range hangar, just for the fun of getting loose in the backfield.

Half the team was still sitting on the damn home platform. Haven't seen that ?dookie? since Masters It's pretty easy to do with a Loki. Spent half the damn game in that thing hence the low damage. I see that way too much. Beyond aggravating. Just had a similar match on Yamantau, although by some miracle we won with basically no blue left in the beacon bar. Started with my Strider, superdash and take center. The reds were slow to arrive and I dodged a whole homing missile barrage from an Ao Guang until two Phantoms came up the ramp. Danced with them solo and lasted a while but they got me in the end. As it zooms out over my corpse, I see finally the lone bot that came to back me up - a Fenrir! Everyone else was just hiding and getting ready to sni0e, even though several were actually in Ao Juns. They just stood there and watched for the whole the time that 8t takes for a Fenrir to trek all the way to center. Given how quickly the Fenrir got destroyed, my guess is it was a low'le El one that belonged to some Masters League player while all the high-level Champs sat on their hands. Still don't know how the heck we won. Was too busy trying to turn the enemy side beacon to see what happened. The reds must have screwed up somehow, because they had Arthurs on center and a high-level French Ming providing cover. Honestly ticked me off a bit that all the snipers on my team got rewarded with a win.

We were getting dominated alright. Losing 6v5 is almost as bad as losing against randoms in a squad... Yang Juns have made bacon stealing a much more daring venture for poor lil Loki

But I decided to fight it. Of course the LR bot ditched the beacon to run back to spawn so we lost that beacon...

Sometimes when I am running a healer I'll refuse to heal the LR bots. If they can't figure out when to eject, help make the call for them :-D

Time to add a healer to your hangar. You would have been 2nd with a healer.

Yama is frustrating cuz it’s the simplest map yet many fail to comprehend how to play it.

A similar thing happened to me last week. If you don't push center the reds get overconfident and bored and will start heading for that side beacon.
Same thing goes for Castle. Once you let the reds get the lower bridge they will smarm up to your spawn beacon.

IMO the entire yam map needs to be redone. Itâs 「fluffernutter」ing annoying taking the long walk of shame from spawn to centre to recapture it from the reds.

And I get ?fluffernutter?ing 4th place? I'm often an army of one trying to figure out creative ways to take center after the all-out up-the-gut solo assault has cost me a bot or two. I know the pain & frustration all too well.

this match the 1st time one of my teammates touched center was with 1:27 left in the match. They didn’t help me capture center, didn’t help me hold it, didn’t help when I recaptured it. It was awesome

I know the pain & frustration all too well. It's usually too well defended. I got for the sides and home in my Loki if I wanna get Reds to move. If Blues don't move then thanks for the honor points?
