I think... correct me if i'm wrong, that they're 'on about' which format they prefer and why.

Hence in this thread people have replied with meaningful answers and not pointless ones.

:)

Touchy subject is it?

Ill tell you. I don't prefer any in particular. Each of the formats have their own merits and annoyances.

Xball is more athletic and hence requires more attention regards training, it's format is faster and preferable because it eliminates singular luck but There's a skill in reading your opponents and coaching reduces that.

7man is harder to spectate, especially for noobs, but more tactical, and harder to just 'pick up' than Xball, so I feel 7man will live for a time yet.

CPL is probably the most spectator friendly, but i havent watched a full Xball match so wouldn't exactly know but I could see it getting boring.

Teams like Joy who have a strong hold on both formats have the most of my respect showing the ability to slow their game down / speed it up as necessary, I don't mind too much what i'm playing as long as im playing, and shooting some bodies.


Your turn
