View Full Version : Copy Cats.
It might just be only me, probably just paranoid or pissed at scrubs.
Was one earlier today and what not, play gang load of people but what I started to notice, was people who are using the same tactics of people who play here *I.E Setoshin, Spooty, New Age, etc etc*, they will use the exact same color same style and everything. It is so annoying, then when I had someone play me and used MY team, and suck so much with them, I had to post it here to get it out in the open.
It goes with the "Scrubs learn how to play" thread, don't copy someones tactics and put them to shame because you suck :(. There is a practice mode people, use it, it helps to figure out combos and everything. If you are that much need to learn the game, heck copy the replay combos and go off those.

I guess you've never heard "imitation is the highest form of flattery", but oh well. I do agree people need to (re)visit practice a little more (I include myself in this generalization). I havnt seen one good Duolong online yet, all of them hella sloppy (this may be a good thing, however :confused: ) .
And when you say they're choosing the same colors, do you mean they have the exact same custom color scheme? Cause theres only 4 (right?) base colors, so theres not really alot of variety to be found there.
I stick with the same 3-5 characters. If I do change my characters up, its not because of who i'm playing. I just want to change it up.
They use the same custom colors.

Wow...copying me? I guess it was bound to happen...my King/Ash is just too good :rofl:
Seriously though, I was playing one of the top people yesterday, and after a few games they busted out my normal team (I'm trying to switch it up some now)...I thought it was weird.
Oh, and Koll; we need to play again. Last time we played you had the edge. But next time...I'm gonna take the win.

Now you know how I feel when you tried to copy me & caught a bad beatdown! :cool:
Are these scrubcopycats you mention the same guys you called good but you forgot you were playing them? You seem slow enough to forget who you were playing!? :pleased:

If someone's copying you, it's because they're so impressed by you that they think being like you will make them better.
They're not "shaming" you, they're flattering you.

I'm pretty sure that, in my case, the guy was actually trying to prove I sucked at the game; and that he could beat me with my own people. I won btw...

That's definitely being unpleasant. However, that doesn't sound like what the original poster was describing. I could be wrong, of course.

Oh, it wasn't what he was describing. I was just talking about it because it was a time that a guy copied me.

I've seen this as well. But I think a lot of em ain't trying to copy, they're just using top tiers and whatever gimmicks they've read about on the net. You'll notice these same clowns just do the same pattern over and over, cause it's all they got. They've mastered one or two tricks, and once you figure them out they quit playing you.
Spooty, that AV is teh powah!

Spooty, you defeated me soundly today, but be forewarned! I will challenge you and waste your time once more by having you defeat me constantly! Then you'll probably get hungry and be all "Man, I want to go make a sandwich..." but you won't be able to, because I'll keep you trapped in an endless cycle of rematches!
We'll see who's laughing then!
Exclamation points at the end of every sentence shows just how serious I am!

So it's NOT just me who's seeing that stuff? Interesting. Mind you, people only copy my Tizoc; never my Gato or any other character. Just my Tizoc. And he's not totally 1-dimensional; I'm not just constantly going for jumping fierce into grab or something stupid, there really is a bit of a style to copy.
Weird. Maybe we're defining the 'not actually top tier, but people think it is' in this game?
They probably can't copy Gato because they can't begin to learn his mix ups. Aslo to Danosarurus Rex or whatever, calm down, no one is attacking you on forums. If you have a problem with me take it up with private messages, kid.

I made Mary's shirt color scheme match that of her arms. I'm sure that this is by no means an original idea, but I'm not out to copy anyone; I'm just juvenile.

Danomyte, I was just noting that I'm not the only one seeing this tendency. I wasn't implying he's "mine all mine, nyahahaha" or something. Settle down.
