if graal had more players, things could've been much more serious. esp with stuff like gst. we could prevent guilds random recruiting for pts etc.

about one gst thing- i like it, i think idevs can handle it if it happens. top idev players(pt, sarah, qes) are confident to take on pc sparrers, but people below it, who occasionally have a chance of winning in idev gst might hate it lol.  

I wouldn't like a whole one Gst, I like the idev and PC split, it's different when it's 1v1 but once it's 5v5, it's not as easy for idev to do it. Yes there may be a idev team that could so it but most idev teams would be wiped first/third round because PC has some advantages, like strafing and I never freeze on PC

if one gst happens, people won't have all idev in their team lol
and good pc players do not use strafing that much and non freeze part i gotta agree. i feel bad when idevs freeze in the middle of spar lol

If you won't have a GST then you're just not good enough to compete in it  

u bettr find a new team inco cuz u suk  

This new system encourages guilds and sparrers to spar more, don't see why there are some negative comments about it especially when they don't spar that much. For me, there's no difference between PCers and iDev so I hope there will be just 1 GST, it will more competitive than it ever was since I think the iDev GST side has more better teams!!
It's not encouraging to see an all time PK leaderboard (though it should be somewhere but not a board), but now everyone will try to be top 3 so we will probably see more people hitting milestones and idem for spar.
Thank you staff!  

Imo tournaments should remain separate. Only change I want to see is iDev tournament cut down to 32 teams.

?? idev would naturally join/recruit some pcs or android in their team.
im saying it will be rare to see all idev teams if one gst happens.

it's giving more equal opportunity, cause people will recruit players based on their skill regardless of their platforms.  

Rewards for top baddy kills? Wow, that's kinda unique. Too bad fighting baddies is the most frustrating thing ever x.x

This new update with removing total scoreboard, disrespects the achievements of top tower guilds and top pkers. It erases an important component to the game which is the preservation of Graal history. Why do that to guilds that worked long and hard to reach the top of scoreboard. You are now feeding the PK boosters and hat chasing disposable guilds. Bring back total scoreboard.

OMFG MAD.. that they fully removed viewing of overall ldrboard of guildforts. They should have all of the positions(top50) where they all finished at time of seasonal change atleast somewhere ongame for all to see.. if they don't do that then get fked sparring community you invited this, graal once again not remembering the past.  

IDK why people talk about a single GST as if it's a one-sided thing where only iDevices have it harder... It'd be harder for PC players as well, considering delay is basically the hard counter to any good sparrer

I also don't get why people keep complaining. I know plenty of iDev who are really good and beat tons of PC players. If they can do it then anyone should be able to if they tried hard enough.

When I came back in Sept (after 7 years) it confused the hell out of me that there were 2 different GST tournaments... it doesn't make sense to me still to this day. Has 1 GST tournament and things also become way more competitive.

There's a fallacy here. Although it is correct that it will be more competetive, it is not because it would be merged, but because 32 lesser teams would be dropped which can also be reached with Goten's suggestion below. If you merged the two GST's the overall competition for 2nd and 3rd place would be tougher, but the competition for the winner will be the same situation as the mix side in which the team with the 5 best PC's will have the best chance to win. To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if the top idevice teams were easily beaten by the 2nd and 3rd place teams from the mix side (and not because I think those teams are more skilled. Hard for me to believe that a plataform that gives out false positives for speed hacking is in the same level playing field as a platform that doesn't)

If a merger ever does happen the winners will most likely be determined by the platform and not the "skill"

Lol poor PC players. If PC players want to test themselves against idevicers they're always welcomed to get on a phone and show their "skill" against these delayer monsters. You know what idevicers that wanted to test themselves against PC's did? They jumped to their PC's and tested themselves. Where my iPC'rs at? Aguzo, Fulgy, and OG stand up.

Alumni isn't even the 5 best PCs and I'd immediately ask at least one iDevice player to be with us if that ever did happen, so invalid argument

We just press a macro on our keyboard and it just does everything for us

poor PC players

You're the one complaining and making excuses, I'm the one that embraces it being harder to win
I'd expect bad sparrers to not want it to happen, but the GST isn't for bad sparrers
