General increase in skill on EU1

[Leshma]

Seriously, what's up with that?

Everywhere I see people blocking every regular attack, actually you need super feints and some serious footwork to hit them. Ten days ago many of them couldn't block anything now they block everything, have decent attack patterns...

Did whole battle server went to duel server and practices for day and night?

I guess all of those Lrn2Play statements finally collapsed on people.

[SchokoSchaf]

Got a similar feeling, though more lagwise. Sometimes attacks seem to take for ever and then there're some with highspeed animation. Even when swinging freely alone in a field.

I stopped playing.

There is definitely an increase in skill, but it wasn't something that happen suddenly, the change was  gradual. You just didn't notice it until now.

[Torben]

ya some of them are almost perfect,  its crazy.  maybe the "autoblocker unban" thread made people check out the little tool  ^^

seriously tho  it was gradual,  and there are still times when u dont find more than a handful skilled players.

Bring forth the bannhammer, I smell autoblock!

[Torben]

yeah i think so too,  i watched a dude today,  a serious nobody from a suspicions clan,  blocking one of the best twohanders from eu for about a minute.  also i am sure i saw the down block in between a few times.
these pple have to read the forums,  how the hell cant they know they will be fucked?

I saw a increase of skill on the NA servers too. I think that somepeople downloaded autoblock

[Sultan Eren]

I feel the same. Suspicious.

[Murmillus_Prime]

I don't know.. Sometimes I can hack through at least 3-4 foes without them blocking before I die by arrow, lance in the arse, team-kill or gank, then sometimes I engage one person and end up having a semi-epic duel with them until either I get back-stabbed when close to death or I just about kill the person, almost dying myself.

You know, it's not that hard to block your attacks. It's all about down block
