Your definition of a fair and honorable fight could be replicated by macro software programmed to spam /stick, style1, style2 repeat. Seems really honorable, fair and skilled to me:p

And walking backwards with spamming face/goin in circles, whilst spamming an anytimer (style1) with your favourite sidestyle/backstyle (style2) is?
Look i got no problems with strafing and this advice about how to counter it, or if don't like it i need togo to play another game is just lols. I can deal with strafing fine like most others here, but i can see why people find it annoying and not fair (again lag issue's and game mechanics).

@Shike - Yeah true, but there are also a ways to strafe and completaly jump all over the screen, making it very hard for tanks to hit/follow.

Only problem with strafing is its not all about just to counter it it also has something to do with your ping on the server an thats what makes it lame imo because thats something you cant do shit about .

Try countering strafe and run-through when ur snared and diseased. You can't move fast enough to counter it, and we all know how well /face works (not...)

Ive had assassins, combined with shit lag from my ISP (100+ ping) OOV constantly simply because I couldnt keep up. And with the perma-snare I wasnt able to back off fast enough to keep em in view..

People say its a skill and 'easy to counter' then try it with abit of lag, almost impossible.
