by Bowdownbe4me Thu May 02, 2013 12:56 pmI actually agree with Juutas on the point that using the same weapon as your opponent is not a counter. At that point is simply becomes a matter of who is better with it (or, who is better at handling their opponent's usage of it). But a rapier =/= a spear.goober0331 wrote:There really isnt a reason to argue about spears and countering them.
People are always not going to listen when it comes to this. I got into it so bad with some people on this forum that I had to leave for months, simply because their ignorant and dont want to switch weapons to counter, or dont want to change how they play, which isnt the fault of the spear user.
If you wont adapt in this game then your going to loose.
Countering a spear user is very easy, people just dont listen, or simply are too prideful to admit their builds arent versatile, or dont think that countering a weapon with that same weapon is a counter. Its ignorance and pride.
People that constantly complain about spears, but then dont want to counter them, or dont view counters as "true" counters, or "viable" just because THEIR build doesnt accommodate for it, or they just dont want to have to change their playstyle, get no respect in my book.
This game is about analyzing, adapting, and executing. If you cant do those three things then you dont deserve to win.
And I do agree with you that many people are unwilling to swap to a new weapon in order to handle their opponent, which is pretty silly considering that there are bound to be poor match-ups. You wouldn't actively choose to pull out an ultra greatsword when facing a katana, so why not the reverse? Know your opponent's weakness and exploit it, know your own weakness and avoid it.
