I will admit Changeup is very good in the Spitfire, but that is all I will admit.  :)

* Fulcrum continues to wait for DA time with Middrift, who will decline saying he pwns Fulcrum frequently yet cannot produce evidence to backup said claims*

Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

building his alt and hidden E.  



There is no such thing as hidden E, just good and bad judgement of the enemy's E state

Although I'm from the camp where thinking dumping ammo is a shady way to get an advantage, I also believe the truly good duelers can figure out ways of overcoming these factors through ACM and judgment as you state here. I could dump ammo all day long but I still know you, Kappa, Bruv..... and gobs of other guys could whip me 9 out of 10 times purely because your ACM is more advanced than mine. This is the point I think Midway is missing. When it comes to the upper tier duelers, it's more about pilot skill than the airplane IMO.

Speaking of duels nobody ever wants to just run 1v1s anymore...informal fights just to practice (something I have only a little of since I've been back)

Once I get back on I'll be happy to do so.  Likely won't be until late this week unless things change.

Ditto.

I'm always trying to improve my game. Unless I'm in middle of something with the squad I'm always willing to 1 vs 1 anybody.

I agree with you here, but it is still no way to duel....  duel is equal states before the merge unless otherwise agreed on before the duel...

Changeup isnt "good". Its you sucking that badly. End of the story, disappear.

I recently duelled changeup repeatedly in the DA, all were good clean fights, most of which ended with me in flames. Nevertheless he is a gentleman and it was a pleasure and a challenge to fight him :salute

He is a squaddie of mine and i dont want to belittle him or his abilities. Maybe i used the wrong words - he is allright, but isnt an ACM genius like some real experts out there. My point was, midway lost really badly in his own plane against one who isnt amongst the very best: this makes his comments about how awesome he is utter nonsense.
