Any FFA games? I mean i know it isn't the most popular form of gameplay on B.net, and is definately the hardest overall, but how many actualy play it? There are the soloers, the Teamers, and the FFAers. I know there are alot of soloers here, and some team palyers, but who plays the FFA. I love teh FFA, and wonderin' if anyone loves it as much as I do.

As a side I would also like to know if anyone has read/used my guide to any success. After writing them down, I find I am winning more by using my own strict guidlines.

Peace and War

^Indeed, the key aspects of FFA are found in solo, such as fending for your self.

Usualy good solo players have problems in FFA games however. It is a total shift in your state of mind. You have to think differently in a FFA.

Not really, you start like solo and once you see who attacks you, you kill him as in 1v1 before waiting for mass and tech. Unlike solo you should always expo and even get 3 heroes and the best tier 3. But this is done later so you can eliminate 1-2 oppos as in solo. I think we can try a ffa with you.

There are many flaws with that statement. But sure, we shuold all play a FFA.

I've recently played some FFA with 2 guys, I think it's interesting, but not so hard. Long distance scouting is important, in order to strike at one base when is fighting with the other or to creep in peace :) , that is why u must never run out of more than half of your army.
Unfortunately I think a little luck is needed no matter how good one can be.
I don't play Warcraft so much (about 2 hours a day, due to my work and study, alot more on weekends) and I am from Northrend (sometimes my Azeroth connection gets pretty laggy), but please state the name of the channel.

I love FFAs. Try to set them up with friends but always shits the bed. Whenever I go to FFA on bnet i end up playing 3-4 other computers who end up ripping me up. With wyrms or chims.

I like FFA because you have more than one opponent to destroy. However, some people often turtle and engage when the battles occur or where there is like you and another left.

Finally after 0:2 FFA 1:2 :), see this . Win was stupid cuz they were nubs but loss was interesting- i fought vs everybody and lost to elf ....only me and elf in the end left. I am ready for FFA Pan, i knowwhat to do , no need to mass air. AM MK and Pally omg greatest power for FFA as they get lvl 5 = gg all UD/elf/orc heroes.

The FFA you played and won... it said player 1-4 Does it always do that. I thought it meant you were facing computers.

That is done to hide who you are facing. If you go online and view your stats, it will reveal who they were.

There were two reasons they hid players. 1) To stop pre-teaming, 2)to hide high level players so they weren't immediately knocked of simply because they were high level ranked players.

Ahh, I knew that. From pan's guide, it seemed more to me like there were larger ffa games that I didnt know about...

I FFA a bit, but it takes too long to find a game for my liking.

There used to be large FFa, but they were taken out. the avearge FFA has 4-5 ppl in it, unless it's been changed. There are frequent Custom games that apply to larger FFA games, and those are much funner.

Finally after 0:2 FFA 1:2 , see this . Win was stupid cuz they were nubs but loss was interesting- i fought vs everybody and lost to elf ....only me and elf in the end left.

I saw your games, and it was interesting. the game you lost there were problems with it, the second game you remedied some problems, but it ultimately was good for you since they all sucked in that game.

Not all the time, I prefer games with more than 1 opponent, yet you are by yourself.
