Madness is down. We were consistently getting to platform 4 on Monday. Finished it off in 3 or so attempts on Tuesday (lockout extension). I don’t know what kill’s more satisfying: Madness or Spine. That first Madness kill is super messy though: 4 healers alive and 2 DPS still standing.
Now we’re in New Game+ mode which means backtracking and picking up achievements and other kills from previous tiers.
On a completely unrelated note, always stretch before playing any sports. Paying the price right now for not properly stretching after some serious outdoor 3v3 volleyball. I also need to L2 jump serve.
Matticus, jump serving is overrated. Good defense is where victories lie. And everyone knows, the moon ball (or sky ball, sky serve, whatever) is a lot more fun
@Darthkeller But you look so good when you can pull off a successful jump serve! And yeah, it’s all about the defense. I’m horrible on the back line :(. I’m a better setup/setter.
@mattuzzi Yes, when you successfully jump serve you look awesome. When you don’t (which for me was about 75%), you look REALLY stupid for trying it. Just saying, there’s a pro to doing it, but there’s a big con for failing
But, as you said, Practice, then you look stupid, but you look stupid to the mirror and it doesn’t care
@Darthkeller If it kisses the net and goes on the other team’s side, I’ll take it =D.
@mattuzzi Agreed 🙂 Hey, grats on the Madness kill
@Darthkeller Ditto. Jump serves are nice to look at, but placement wins you matches. If you have the capability to serve up a floater or top-spin with precision (like say, to the person you routinely shanks serves) you’ll wind up with more points and less stress on your rotator cuff. To me, roofing or 6-packing someone was always more thrilling than an ace. 😛
Now a skin-of-your-teeth Madness kill … that tops it all. Grats on the new title.
“FLOATER”! THANK YOU!
I agree, playing volleyball was fun (almost 20 years ago), now, I prefer WoW and a good boss kill trumps a spike, a great block, a jump serve, even a perfectly placed floater.
