I guess Acre are a lot easier to pick on, having a historically large proportion of newer players, and admittedly relying a bit on plate.
They haven't been a bunch of jackass noobs in a long time, though. I do remember when there were fucking OODLES and KABOODLES of Acre players, all stoked for strat and I'd know for a fact that I'd fib, deflect, or manipulate them off strat battle rosters for the greater good of the faction.
But that hasn't been for a long-ass time. In fact, there isn't really much of an active (in NA1 at least, there probably do exist a few DTV primary groups) "noob clan" anymore. You know, outside of talking shit.
Anyway, the proud GOBBLISH people wear much more armour in aggregate than Acre.
Btw 33-15 0 IF master fucking build, why don't you guys get FUCKED
