It's actually 2000 GMT - but as we in Daylight Savings at the moment, we are currently an hour ahead of that (BST=British Summer Time).  That is exactly why I prefer to just say UK time and advertise all our events in Eastern time - though I usually also provide the UK and CET (Central European Time) alternatives too for events held in those timezone-friendy hours.  :)

Just staying High won't help.  This event is the ultimate test of tactical SA.  It's not just being aware of what's going on, but knowing when to engage and when to wait.  Then, once you do engage, it's far from an outomatic kill just because you get on a guy's 6.  These guys can fly.

More like 30 to 50 people but alt for nonengagement is 10K, so trying to stay hi is not all that effective since everyone not engaged will be at that alt.

lol ive flown almost every KOTH, except one and i know that BnZ wont always work, since people can hunt you down if they just have a couple feet over you..

Even worse is winning two duels makes you the biggest target in the arena, getting chased by 4 guys is NOT fun :D   They will hunt you down sooner or later anyways..

If you want to have any hope at all of winning shoot Wldthing FIRST. Otherwise your just gonna be his chew toy. Then after you kill Wldthing go looking for maneTMP.

 Oh and if you want to have any chance at killing either one of them better wait untill they are engaged. Other wise attacking them will just end up with you dead!

I'd like to make a serious point here.......

KOTH is about fighting.

staying high, staying out of trouble, staying on the sidelines, all that kind of thing leads to one thing and one thing only: ejection.

IF you turn up for the KOTH ( and I should point out that all are welcome); then you'd better turn up with an attitude.

It's for fighter jocks, plain and simple. That's what KOTH is all about.

All forms of fighter tactics are okay....  extended running is prohibitted.  Of course, that's the nice thing about fighting in a canyon, there's no where to run.

& yes

Kill WT, then Mane, then Ice.... :D
