Longest PVP battle ever?

Post by Hootstwo » October 14th, 2013, 12:10 pm

So, I'm currently fighting someone who's running 3 Singing Sunflowers (who does that?), I've got a Ruby Droplet up, as it stands, we're in a complete stalemate - he can't kill me, nor me him. We've been at this for roughly 25 minutes so far. As you can tell, I'm stubborn. I expect it's maybe a bot I'm playing against (which would be difficult) and it's annoying as all get out.

Seriously, if you're the one with three sunflowers, I wish many bad things upon you.

As an aside, you'd need a fairly purpose built team to take this down. That's what makes me believe this is a bot team...

I'm starting to think it's actually NOT a bot... Just someone who's a jerk.

That team wouldn't stand a chance against my Purple Puffer.

I feel your pain . I battle a tean w/ 2 sunflowers and a ruby and wanted to crawl through the screen and put a can of whoopass on him. The fight went on forever, but I finally won killing all 3. I hope i don't come across this dude again this week. Though it would be considered an excellent fight under most circumtances I don't want to have to work that hard and down to the wire.lol !!

early 5.2 when i first entered pvp battles i used a team with crawdad, emerald drake and something, thinking it would be a good idea. needless to say i encountered another healer team and it lasted around 150 rounds. in the end he gave up. i remained stubborn. :)

I'm going to guess it was likely the same guy as I fought, they probably added the droplet to their roster after feeling the amazingness that mine displayed!

Just had another epic battle, although this one only lasted about 15 minutes. Again, Ruby Droplet vs Lost of Lordaeron, was close, but I realized that instead of bubbling off the curse, I should bubble off the healing spell, was seriously slow going and I thought he'd have thrown in the towel more quickly than he did (it was clear after about 30 rounds that I was chipping away at his total).

How is using a Ruby Droplet less or a jerk move than using the Sunflower? :P

If you are not using a defensive pets yourself, you cant get into a stalemate :P

Teams like this is the reason I run a Darkness comp. I may only have a 60%-70% win ratio but my matches never go more than a few mins even against stall teams. I'd much rather be able to do around 10 matches in 30 mins or so even if I only win 6 or 7 of them then be stuck doing only 2 or 3 in that timeframe.

The only healer team I've lost to was a double sunflower and ruby droplet and that was only cause I hadn't seen the ruby before and had no idea what to do against it, when I requed and got the comp again I crushed it and then the third time he ran as soon as he saw me :roll:
"Even when you are winning soundly, you must always give your opponent a way to retreat with honor. If you don't, then he has no reason to surrender. He will fight until the bitter end, and you will pay a larger price for victory."

The difference would be that I'm not running THREE Ruby Droplets...

I did my 10 battles a couple of days ago and I ended up w/ Mr. sunshine again w/ his flower team lol !! The battle went a really long time...we were really in a draw situation, but I was determined not to quit so I was able to finally wait him out and he quit. :D

If I wanted to be a real jerk. . .

I would use a couple Emerald Proto-Whelps and a Magical Crawdad. (Or maybe throw a Ruby Sapling in there.)

On both emeralds use Ancient Blessing, Emerald Dream.
On the crawdad use Renewing Mists, Wish.

Battle until you get someone's last pet down to where you only need to hit them one more time. Then keep switching between pets and healing. . . until they get sick of the game and forfeit.

One day I'll probably try this. ;)

Probably wouldn't stand a chance against a good Spider, an Emerald Shale Hatchling, or other pets that root the target. He's relying on being able to swap pets to roll three healing abilities. Root him and wear him down one pet at a time using Web, Leech Life. And with the Shale, throw in Stoneskin. :D

I'm in a pet battle as I'm typing this. My Ruby Droplet vs. Blossoming Ancient.

Ruby Droplet
[ability]Absorb[/ability]
[ability]Bubble[/ability]
[ability]Drain Blood[/ability]

Blossoming Ancient
[ability]Ironbark[/ability]
[ability]Photosynthesis[/ability]
[ability]Sunlight[/ability]

Both pets at max health of 2.3k. The remaining pets dead and we've been at it for the past 40 minutes. It's just a question of who forfeits first.

Well, at least I'm watching Game of Thrones ;)
