Discussion / Re: Moldy Sponge 2: a glimpse into the PVP meta
« on: October 12, 2019, 06:16:52 PM »what i was trying to say was that his driving style/bot/etc basically fit the classic meta of SnS killing narrow bots(yours, cringeys, and reiers) so it doesn't really seem to shock/surprise me that he would have won his matches and doesnt really "break the meta" as reier said. if you AI'd his bot with meltybrain im pretty sure the results would have been pretty much the same (just comes down to if the AI doesn't kill itself on the hazards lol, hell it might even kill redace's bot since of how cancer melty is in ra2). i would say nightraven in centauri 2 is a better example of a design that wouldnt work with AI winning taking out a bunch of fools. on another note i think we would probably see some more ""anti-meta"" bots like clamps that focus more on controlling your opponent and using the hazards to your advantage if the weight class was higher since its kinda hard to make a clampbot at the lw level.i mean its not that much a shock tbh considering code reds bot is basically a sns and sns always dunk on super narrow bots aka half of the bots in centauri i think everybody is just more surprised code red had the iq points to drive ray billings tombstone style and just side swipe these nerds who made narrow botsThat's exactly the point though? "Driving Ray Billings style" is an option here. AI it's not
