You must've been trying to herd catgirls on that one.

Of the 23 failures, 12 were due to "Itchy Trigger Finger" (someone taking out an AV before the kill order), 7 were due to random stuff (poorly timed kill order, one team suddenly forgetting how to do damage, Walmart delivery banging on my door because they need a signature for the yogurt I ordered, etc.), and only 4 were due to an AV regen after the kill order was given.

 

Honestly, that surprised me - and I firmly believe that in 2024 most failures were due to a regen after the kill order, though I didn't keep track like I am so far this year. I mean, stopping your damage so we take out the AVs at the same time should be a skill set you learned in any of the millions of BAFs run on a weekly basis. I don't get how people with Lore and Destiny unlocked struggle with this. I'd still argue that window needs to be expanded to 10 seconds, though, for Triple Threat.

I don't join the higher end Incarnate stuff often, so there may be an element I've not observed there, but from observing ump-teen BAFs and LAMBDAs, I'd say its a pretty good bet that (A) people are not watching their chat, (B) people become overly excited by their assault and get tunnel vision, or (C) both.

Thank you Oklahoman for being a reliable leader.  For a brief moment in history we have stability.  Unfortunately the inevitable heat death of the universe will end that.  But we have here and now!

I know your dislike for the Keyes Trial, but if you want to lend your talents to something more frustrating than Triple Threat, try Loves a Challenge or Avoids the Green Stuff. Also, folks manage to fail Bunker Buster on a regular basis.

Here's the thing about scrapperlock (which is real, I get it) but in the context of Triple Threat they are already stopping at 10 and 5 on their AV. But once we get down to 2 I've seen people go stand right next to an AV with a damaging aura on, or summoning uncontrollable pets, or not being aware of their attacks that have DoT. It's almost like they are anticipating the end is near and they are in a state of bloodlust. Brain shuts off. So I'm sending tells, messages to the league, teleporting them away, etc. but I can't be in 3 places at once. It really is like herding cats - more so than with LAM badge runs.

I am thankful for the ones you run.  Nothing is more enjoyable than reliable leadership.

 

Well that and Raspberry Chocolate pie, but I digress.
