They aren't playing well, they are just clan stacking on a dead low pop server tryhard pike ganking 5v1 on new and solo players and kiting with xbows. Anyone can do this, most of us just aren't lame enough.
Clan stacking is pretty much useless if you aren't on Discord/ts communicating. Now, if you're going to tell me not to play spearman because you hate spears, and not to play archer because you hate archers, you can fuck right off. If people can't block down, or want to run off on their own against squads of players, it's their problem, not mine.
EDIT : there should be a new rule : no ranged or cav below 10/15 players. Nothing else should be done, please for the love of god, no more nerfs, that kind of shit killed the game.
