<div class="IPBDescription">For shame</div>So I'm commanding, about my 3rd time. I've read the forums read posts on strats and watch many competitive matches. So about 15 minutes in, they do not have a early onos, which is a clear win on marine side for me. Second, at 15 we have sub, flight, atrium and are taking out the hives as we speak. I'm throwing out health and ammo and scans left and right and at 15 minutes we have weapons 2 armor 3, gl/flame, mines, shotties, welds, and jetpacks researching.
I get ejected for being a ###### commander...
Apparently researching flames first is stupid and ridiculous, we are swimming in resources, and it doesn't matter which one i do first. Flames are best against fades and onos because it drains energy. Studies have shown GL's suck against onos. They were saying i freaking suck and i deserve to uninstall and your useless, the FPS guys were pulling the game, not the com... That right there is BS, the ground guys wouldn't do crap without my upgrades, my strat.
I just don't understand some people . Really put a sour taste in my mouth. If they let me finish we would have won, but the ejected me and said THEY would have won sooner if I didn't fail at the game so bad. I mean really , freaking bs, this elitist attitude in some kids these days pisses me off.

Were you making the game not fun?
Rest assured were not all like that, ignore the trolls and carry on the game needs good commanders who arnt afraid to break the "NORM".
I like turrents and arcs, I get moaned at, but I dont care. Next time you command and Ill follow your orders... simple.
Regardless, anybody ejecting a commander in a game where you're absolutely destroying the other team, just because they researched flamethrower first, is just silly.
It's about as silly as the aliens covering the entire map with harvesters and infestation, with hives going up at every tech point, and then getting ejected for getting bilebomb before leap.
If the game is already won, the commander shouldn't have to be bound by the most popular build order (and shouldn't be even if the game isn't won yet). There's not a lot of variety as it is, and we should be encouraging people to attempt less common strategies. For example, I know at the end of a game, the most efficient, effective means of ending it is to start pumping out the onos eggs. However, often I'll opt for building a bunch of bombard whips instead.
Always a few idiots to mess up the pub games. Had a kid the other day rallying marines to follow his orders and ignore the commander (even though the commander knew what he/she was doing and this player clearly did not).
BUT can someone confirm or clarify this:?

They have no idea that normally comp strats are not very good for public, except where they exploit the broken aspects of the game, like regen and crags in this build, along with the 1 min onos, hashahah (joke, 5m30 is the earliest i've seen one so far..)
