What's the difference between a t10 and a t50 PVE finish?


A phone call!

    I would have guessed that you were going in the other direction with

     "a well-timed bowel movement!"

    Hope for the best, but plan to bring a Whales team-up.

    That is really true. :D I got kicked out of top 10 placement because of that.

    Kill them with more awkwardness by taking a Piotr.

    So, not really a joke, but something that only makes sense in this MPQ context.  I just started the vs season, played through the seed teams and a few early teams and got destroyed by a much higher level team.  No big deal, not complaining about that, I had broken rng by being artificially higly ranked, but I happened to look at the name and it was someone I see post here a lot.  My reaction was similar to the deadpool 2 film, where dp is torn apart by Juggs but still in fanboy mode.  I wish pvp had a "friendly nod" button

    ;) *friendly nod*

    I thought about something similar the other day. It would be cool if pvp had pre-made messages that you could exchange. Like if you get a defensive win then your default message to the losing player could be "Better luck next time!" or "Thanks for the points." And if you beat someone then it could be "Nothing personal, just wins" or "Puny god" with Hulk's picture saying it. And naturally that could be turned off.

    Exactly!  I have often wanted to tip my hat when I get beat by a much lower level team, and add the 'nothing personal, it's just wins' on the retal.  Or in this case, 'happy to be 1 of the 75'

    Another game I play, Stormbound, has a limited set of emoji themed to the game's factions that you can use to semi-chat with your opponent during matches. It's a cool solution to doing something like that without having to do translations.
    Not so much an MPQ player thing as an MPQ forum regular thing, but I often find myself using "tinykitty" as a substitute in situations where it's not appropriate to actually swear, both textually and verbally.
