Props to Nick for this. Never let anyone get away with "rules for thee but not for me"

For people saying that they were being sensitive and that they shouldn't have signed up for the tournament. The game between Tony and Alex was agreed upon in the beginning to be a relaxed gamed based on intent. Alex had told Tony his intention that he wanted to move the rest of his army along with doing his deep strikes. Tony only decided to hold the rules against him at this specific mistake. Almost the exact same kind of thing happened to Tony later in the final game but because Tony had held Alex to the rules, Tony's oponent held Tony to rules which cost him the grand prize of the tourny

"Player 2" then gets called out (in clip 2) for not declaring a Stratagem at the right time (and is annoyed but concedes that he never even mentioned using the Stratagem). His opponent mentions that "Player 2" rules-lawyered the last opponent so he's going to hold "Player 2" just as accountable.

These are usually the top tier players, people usually are cool with correcting sequencing mistakes and takebacks as long as you're consistent, i.e. you're willing to break tedious rules and they are within reason, but yeah it's sort of like this as a rule. When you're playing people who you have never met before, you have to use the rules as written. If it's just a group of friends, you can house rule stuff between each other and iron out the kinks of the game to make it fun, but when you have hundreds of players you can't do that, and unfortunately being as strict on the rules as possible is the way to go. Did I mention these games are timed too? Part of me wishes to go back to a scene where it was more loose with the rules and house ruling stuff was more common. That way you could houserule with friends to resolve some of GW's balancing issues or you could fix some of their stupid missions (I swear no one proofread their Crusade missions, some of them don't even work as written). The other issue is that you can make a narrative league and try to create a fluffy list to fit a narrative, that doesn't work tactically, but then all it takes is one player who didn't get the memo and comes up with a full on meta list because, quite frankly, they don't seem to know how to play otherwise. Like they were talking about how, before a game, they had an excel sheet to decide what would be the best hypothetical target for one of their units. That stuff is pretty cool for competitive but not as much for narrative. As a result, narrative in my experience is less fun than competitive.

Hey guys new to the hobby and still trying to learn about the game. What exactly happened. What was the mistake Alex did and what was Tony's respond that got him so hated?

@TheRuckus13

3 жыл бұрын

I am also new, but I think I have an idea. I believe this was turn one, and both players had positioned their armies in their spawns, and were beginning their movement phase, towards the mid-table. Certain units have an ability called deep strike, where in the movement phase you can deploy them anywhere on the mid table, or your spawn, under some specific guidelines. One of those guidelines is that the deep strike must happen at the END of your turn, not the beginning. Fennel forgot this, and did deep strike with a unit before he moved any of his other units, and thus per the rules declared the end of his movement phase. This meant essentially that he had to skip an entire turn, and just did deep strike leaving an expensive unit on the mid table with no cover, to be picked off easily, and had to fight an uphill battle the entire game while behind one turn on positioning every step of the way. Needless to say, it cost him the game. Apparently a lot of the community felt that even though this was a national tournament, that meant everything to these guys that Fennel should have been offered a mulligan to re-do his movement phase, because people wanted to see a close battle between the two 1st place contenders. His opponent said, this is a tournament, not a house game sorry but no thank you. My opinion is this is a gotcha cheap tactic for sure, but it IS the rules, and Fennel messed up at the end of the day.

@TheRealDeadRock

Жыл бұрын

They both agreed to a casual, play by intent game. Alex asked if he could set up his deep strike units before moving his stuff (deep strike happens at the END of the movement phase). Tony agreed to let Alex set up his deep strike models under the impression that he could still move after that, to avoid forgetting to put them down, which is quite common. After Alex places his models, Tony insists that because deep strikes happen at the end of the movement phase, that Alex's movement is now over, even tho a minute or so earlier, he implied that Alex could still move his dudes normally. He basically said " yeah go ahead and do your stuff in whatever order and it's fine", and then pulled the rug from under his feet by using those orderings against him after saying he wouldn't. Total dick move in any game

In the third clip, after Tony took a fucking hour for his first turn (which is ridiculously fucking long, since a game is two hours and thirty minutes), Tony helped Alex setup a deepstrike, then told him his movement phase was over since that happens at the end of the movement phase, basically ruining the playing by intent agreement. In the second clip, Nick did the exact same thing to Tony that Tony did to Alex, costing him the 1st place spot.

its actually a bit worse, at the start of the recording Alex says you dont have to measure to the T, if you say your placing them at 18 to screen and not allow deepstrikes between the scouts and his more important back models. He states that he will play by intent and tony just has to say thats what hes trying to do and Alex will not then check every model to the exact inch to ensure he cant deepstrike in that area. Tony let and helped alex drop his deepstrike in and then once they were placed he was like "gotcha nothing else can move". This is why Nick called him on the advance and charge strat even though it was probably understood thats what he wanted to do. If you watch the Art of War battle reports and I think i've even seen it at actual tournaments Nick will normally let you do what you intended even you did it somewhat incorrectly even if it costs him the game. He's just holding dude to the same kind of level he treated his last opponent. The intent was Alex wanted to drop the deepstrikes so he didnt forget and even if dude wanted to play by the rules he coulda just said deep strikes last in movement bro, move and ill help you remember deepstrike after your normal movement. Dudes even playing eldar like your playing 70+% winrate army you prob dont need to gotcha.

Yeahh similar things happen with my friends when we play, but we play casual and will let a correction happen. At a major tournament I understand taking a hard line cuz of rules. That guy especially was like you didnt let it slide with Alex so Im not gonna let it slide with you. Sure you intended, but you didnt act upon that intention. For the most part allowing corrections makes a game more fun so both armies play at their supposed best given your tactics and strategies. But in a major tournie youre playing to be the best, that involves remembering every one of the 500little details you have to remember during your turn in the correct order. I see nothing wrong here!

Local events are even lower pressure than big GTs like this, and tends to be more chill.

This is what happens when the company developing the game doesn't give a s**t about competitive and how the community lives the game. The rules are not precise enough to have a proper competitive ecosystem, everybody wants precise rules (the battlefields are too random and there are often no line of sight breakers). They should learn from Magic: after the "name a card" rule crate problems in tournaments multiple times, they introduce an official rule forcing both players to agree on the chosen card. W40k should have a similar rule about everything...
