Kafein, you say you go for stragglers and not for afks. Shouldnt it be the other way round?
They leech on the serv, the stragglers are actually playing! Killing afks is cleaning the server!
From my experience I know that 95% of people that are afk at spawn will play the round at some point. When they are afk, there's no challenge at all for the rider or the afk person. If they fake being afk, the horseman dies, if they really are, the afk dies.
Stragglers, however, have fair chances against cav, as long as the cav is not outnumbering them. It's very easy to use the ~ key to check your surroundings while running to your team. And cav vs anything aware is in the worst case (1h) more or less 50/50 with good players.
In the case of cav outnumbering the straggler, well that's unfortunate but the exact same thing happens to everyone that gets outnumbered by any other class. Maybe if horses weren't paperthin and not projected from their world of marmelade sluggishness into our cocaine-driven inertialess human world the horsemen would prioritize targets some other way.
Just look at the pics, there must be at least 6 cav. There was more coming from the other side.
Dont you see something wrong? You cant say anymore : derp derp why do wz have bad reputation derpy derpity derp
As I said in my previous post, you took a pic of 6 cav. Great work. SO what ? I could be ashamed at the amount of infantry being unfair cowards and all sticking to that wall pretty much like a child under his mother's skirt, with crossbows loaded and pikes readied.
My point is, you don't know what the intent of these cavs is. I'm sure some of them went to kill afkers, as there are bad apples everywhere, but you can't conclude anything with those pics. The maps forces most cav to go around the walls, and that's what they do, exactly like infantry going in the town.
