unless it's repeatedly killing a chest pounding turn-tard because he thinks he is good enough to overcome all the rules of ACM, and then hear him cry on 200 or the boards because "you didn't play fair" and are obviously an inferior player because you are not being a turn-tard with him against his superior turning FM ...

Nothing more satisfying than catching a chest-thumping, timid, hit & run experten with their pants down and all they can do is fly straight and level ... :rofl

I would agree with you, if that actually happened.  What did happen, was the turn turd dispatched your two friends before you could make a third failed pass  :rofl

i don't know you so i didn't have any idea you were a turn-tard until you replied ...

i was just speaking in general about what is satisfying in the game, from a non turn-tard perspective ...

I used it as an example.  You made a point and I made one.  I used data to back my point.

what point did you make?

that you managed to single me out 4 times in a LALA in furballs that i was dishing out air to air kills at a nearly 2-1 rate?  i never said you didn't.

that you caught me trying to get to help in my g6 with pods vs. you e+ la5 because i thought that was my best option?
i never said you didn't.

is that supposed to mean something, other than you may know more about playing AH than i do? 
once again, i never said you didn't.

so what point do you think you made?

No reason to call someone a turn tard just because they can turn a plane better than you.

That is like someone calling you a run tard because you don't know how to turn.

that is a fair statement, however it is a "return of service" so to speak, if you get my point ...

i have a reciprocal courtesy policy ...

so what point do you think you made?

 

The point was that practice in the DA does make you better even in a MA situation.  You keep with your story but not really what happened.  I was the one that was BZ and you doing the picking.  One more time so it sinks in (hopefully), the point is that DA or 1 vs 1 practice is what allowed me to do that and the lack of it is what made your only option to fail pick and run.  The only reason you thought running was the best option for you was not knowing what to do in a 1 vs 1 situation (something that you learn by practicing 1 vs 1).  So, yeah, my point was that I am better than you but that is only because I bothered to practice dueling.  Isn't this what this thread is about?  How on earth can you handle 2 or 3 cons if you can't even attempt to take on one?  The only way is to avoid them, and that is probably what MA fighting is teaching you.

So, one more time, turn-turd that practiced dueling 4 runtard that thinks practicing is useless 0.  Point made i hope

except it was 4-1 and it was rarely a 1-1 situation, even the time you like to try and use as an example was not a 1v1 as you have stated.

second i don't recall saying that dueling has no value, i may have said it does not directly relate to success in air combat or success in the games, and i did say that personal combat was not the most important aspect of being a good player, but i never said it was useless ...

i am sure i said that flying smart will lead to success much quicker than learning how to duel, which it will.

now just the fact that you managed to find me vulnerable while you were in a plane better suited to a turn-fight has no bearing on how "good" or "bad" we are, or what we know about ACM and how it may or may not relate to AH and our specific situations in the game at the time.

does it?

And I was just speaking in general that most run-tards couldn't find their dogfighting arse with both hands when speed is no longer available to them.

Some days I'm a turn-tard, others I might be a  BnZ-tard ... but never a run-tard.
