yes it was melee type duels. it was an event based around just getting people together to do tourneys with gear options being whats in focus, rather than skill. and as we've seen its hard these days to get a tourney/league together.

i cant remember but crushflange might also have been a banned item, which opened up the options a lot.


Hm intriguing, its just pure smite nl duels sounds wacky. I mean even if we ended up providing this for the community most (90%)would still find excuses against it.

the biggest differences:

1. people think lld vtpk takes no skill, but people know 18 smite nl duels arent about skill. so no hate there

2. 18 smiters are dirt cheap, even with some ok gear, due to not needing an inv other than 15 lifers.

but its also pretty hard to get people to build even cheap chars.

^this 100%

also to add a #3, 18 smiters can be made in several different ways and still be viable, unlike lvl 30 smiters with the gay ass rules danzeva has had in his head for a year+ that has yet to produce any positive results.

What do you mean ppl “think”? There’s no skill involved, charge - sync - smite.

I find people have nothing but excuses regarding lld vtpk though. Most who say that it takes no skill, cant seem to pilote one. So they push away from any thing even slighty difficult to play (which isnt very hard to play). Now that's most, not all.

you can't pilot any char youve ever made so why are you here spouting off opinions like this?

That 5 foh really adds a lot of variety to the play style...

Nah, I get your point. I just wanted to emphasize that lld vt vs vt is dumb.
