I'll have my word here, vio.scarz (detox_enjoyer) or "fucking dming cunt leave the server"
DMing is a useful things in ctf matches, no matter if you like it or not, back some time ago in instagib pug matches there was a popular mod called like iCTF Cup or something, the difference is that there was no any rules. There's a big difference in "who is" actually do play DM in combogib server, if it's some 25% accuracy guy which is doing like 150-200 frags per match then mostly yeah it's useless because he can't have enough aim and control to make things, but if you shot 40+ accuracy like sbt for example, or hildee, or whoever with that accuracy then it will make sense. Yeah sure if you kill an enemy then u're sending him back to his spawnpoint and it's harder for your attackers to grab the flag, this is what you have to think about while u play DM, and if you will spawnkill good enough then your attacker will have an ability to grab the flag and you'll cover him better because you're already on the position with the information of all of the players. More I want to say is that dming is so much about the map, I'm vio.scarz` (/detox_enjoyer) I guess some of you saw me right and I think you know that I don't play maps which has no place for DM, I do join usually only in maps like woot, fragwhore, pictureperfect and etc, because there is useful. On a map like fragwhore there's not a big problem that I'm "sending" everybody back to spawns, because my team can use grapples and come from the top in the middle, this way I'll just kill anybody and they'll grab and run with the flag while I do my holyshits or whatever without having a need to pay attention on my base because I clearly and always know how many enemies and where they are located, I don't backshoot all the time, sometimes I let enemies pass to my base, what I can't say about those 25% accuracy players which are playing DM for like 140 frags in fragwhore in 20 minutes which is absolutely useless and better they grab flags 4 sure. Also, there's some psychological of that, it doesn't matter what you say I just know it's like this - when you have rampage+ - 90% of your enemies are trying to kill you without paying attention to your team, because you're on the streak, no even sense to explain what is going on when you have unstoppable or godlike, you provide a huge amount of space to your team just because you have that streak right now and u're on the servers, enemies are just hunting for you which can be an easy capture for your team too
For example, I don't play DM on maps like OPEL or Duku, I don't find much sense in it being on a public server, what else to say:
To me, as a player which can do 450 kills in fragwhore in 20 minutes, it's obviously makes way more sense to play DM and cover my teammates, then just running ahead and grabbing the flag, as I said before: autobalance breaks everything, It thinks too much of you and it forgets that this is an CTF Team Game. Whenever I stop playing DM on maps like FragWhore we're just starting to lose instantly because no one of my team can't kill nobody and people are just capturing our flags like a snowball, I SHOULD BE that thing in the middle which controls everything what's going on the map, you can tell me, like: look, there's sbt guy which is playing ctf and winning matches. And yeah, you're right, but there's one thing - I dont change my nicknames every 5 minutes just to avoid higher rank and getting that worse balance as I said and I'm also not throwing matches where I am (sometimes sbt plays worse than a novice bot, idk whats the reason but it's nerfing his rank for sure too)
If you have a really high rank like 1300+ points and you can hit 40%+ accuracy, than DMing is the best tactic for you on open maps like fragwhore and etc, no any different ways.
