Ten Questions With x Zeg x

1.) What’s your most favorite and least favorite things about the game of Grifball?

My favorite is playing with the people I enjoy playing with.

One of my least favorite things is not being able to ignore the people that I don’t want to. =[

2.) How do you feel about the difference in skill between the Pro and Amateur leagues? Did it effect your team’s decision when choosing which league to register and play in?

I think my team was never considering anything but Pro, although I doubt we would be allowed in Ammy anyway. As far as the skill difference goes, I think that the difference between the normal pro teams and normal amateur teams is quite large, but once you compare the best Ammy and worst Pro, I think they are very similar. Obviously the best Pro teams are going to be better than the rest.

3.) Which do you think is the most difficult position in Grifball to play? Tank, Defense, Hybrid or Runner? Why do you believe so?

I think that it is hardest to be a REAL Hybrid, not someone who calls themselves a hybrid because they are bad at everything equally. A REAL Hybrid needs to be able to make a difference in the game according to what their teammates are doing. If the runner is tanking well, the Hybrid should be able to take over the running duties. A Hybrid cannot be a liability when it comes to tanking, and personally I think that Hybrids should be one of the better defenders on the team.

4.) Do you feel like you could still improve upon your skill as a Grifball player? What part of your game do you feel still needs improvement?

Off-host, I personally think that I am playing the best I ever have, however there is always room for improvement. My number of betrayals per game have skyrocketed, which I hate because I have always had a fairly low betrayal rate compared to other tanks. Obviously I would like to run better. I would say that I am the last option on the team when it comes to running, but I may need to as in the Green Army game this season where I was tanking poorly for the first half while Pie and Scet were tanking well.

5.) Which has been the most epic game your team has played in? What made it so special?

SYLaL SML08 against PO was epic because we were off-host(against a dominating host) in the playoffs and won the game 5-4. I would say that the 1 hour 16 minute game was the most epic just because of the length, but my team lost in an especially devastating fashion after all that time.

6.) What is your opinion regarding neutral host? Do you believe it makes the game more fair?

I don't think there is any denying that it is more fair than a regular game, and I don't get the people who argue that it isn't. Personally though, I could care less if it is neutral or not though because I have faith in my team to win in any situation.

7.) How do you feel about switching to Nokyard’s GrifCave map on Sandbox for the Fall league? Have you spent much time playing on it?

I'll keep this short. I am very upset and I have only played about 6 games (no league) on it.

8.) Are you happy with the way the Grifball league is currently run? If not, what specifically do you not like?

No complaints here. Some times I feel like MooCow is doing his best Roger Goodell impersonation, but most of the time I get where he is coming from.

9.) What would you like to see in the future for Grifball? Would you like for it to become more professional, similar in style to how MLG works or would you like for things to stay mostly the same?

I enjoy the league format. I do think a ladder system similar to Gamebattles strictly for grifball would be cool and would help find more serious games easily, but I understand the numbers would be low. I highly doubt there will ever be a MLG Grifball event, nor do I think that would work.

10.) What’s your opinion regarding an occasional ranked grifball playlist in double XP matchmaking? Do you think it’s necessary?

I personally think that it is alright so long as it is occasional. I would care less either way as to whether or not it is ranked, but now I get to get my 50. =]
