Playing with 2 accounts or 3 accounts in 3v3 RT open games is surely an advantage. Atleast for manual pick Fall of Jerusalem (long long ago), Siege of Feldmere (long ago) and Rise of rome (sometime ago), games are in favor of alt teams due to lesser communication/fights.

I agree that it is difficult to manage orders and not get booted, but if there are no reliable team mates to play with, managing boot time is like 10 times better than arguing with the non-co-operative team mate(s). With reliable team-mates sometimes the other team won't fill at all and "alts" are helpful for this-as I can fill a 3v3 Rt game easily with this account or 3 new accounts than with 1 or 2 or 3 of my older accounts. Instead of playing 1 game of 30~40 mins with a troll/toxic team mate-arguing with him/listening to constant blaming, I can play 2-3 games in the same time with alts.

No it's not.

Hate to be blunt, but you're probably not a good player. It is disadvantageous for Tito to play open games with randoms because they are usually bad, and won't even help him to improve.

As far as you, when you get a random player, they're likely better then you and can carry you.

"In an RT game with 6 min boot, not having to communicate with teammates is an advantage for sure."

2 minute turns instead of 6. Yeah, seems super advantageous.

Not.

@Joker

In your scenario playing with alts gives an advantage due to having a team with stronger players.
A team with stronger players having an advantage is obvious; in order to figure out if using alts gives an advantage you need to compare a team of 3 alts with a team of 3 players of an equal skill lvl to the player that uses alts.

why are you even discussing this, you either win or lose regardless of all that nonsense... in either outcome that's your merit

stop thinking about others could do and start thinking about what you could do

this thread is basically a meme already

Platinum I actually asked within the 1st turn but yeah i guess you can exaggerate that to half way through the game....

RT ALT gamers that have a 6 minute clock should be able to respond within the first 5 turns in group chat.

you have been loved

@Cowboy: No. For sake of skill level, initially I started at ~1750 elo in 1v1 ladder and now I am at ~2000 elo rating. Coming across random players better than me/capable of carrying is rare. Like 1 in 50 games or so, or that being new alts of players like pichu/leviathan. I agree, Tito won't improve playing with randoms, but it will help to get familiar with the map. I guess he plays RoR, Guiroma and MME a lot and probably starting EU now.

@Chicken: I have played both with and against stronger players; when I had played against them, my team was weaker-be it my alts or me+open game players-who don't play Ror or Sof or Foj (2v2,3v3,4v4) often, pick lesser picks randomly and attack/expand randomly, with lesser or no communication. Skill level I assume it map specific and/or 1v1 ladder rating at that time. If I win like ~80% or more while playing with stronger players, I win like ~50% or less while playing against them, of which like ~60% being full alt team, ~30% being good players and ~10% co-operative normal players. Very few games, maybe 1 out of 30 games, I get a stronger team against a strong team.

With alt teams, I had lost too-but not as bad as those games with non-alt teams.

@Cakes: Why? They have no need to and it is better to say it at end and not waste time arguing, if someone throws a tantrum like you did.

@Veigar

Thats a very confusing paragraph you created there, but i guess its bottom line is that an alt team has the advantage?
That may or may not be true, i never stated anything diffrent nor did i support that opinion.

3 accounts on the same team isn't cheating. Fizzer has even stated as much.

Sure, you may have a speed advantage in RT games, but you also loose all benefits of teamwork (bouncing ideas, catching mistakes, etc).

Playing with three of my own accounts is definitely an advantage over me + 2x randoms, but me + 2 good teammates is massively better than me x3.

@Chicken:
Majority of the times yes and only if the opponent team can't have good co-ordination and don't take these "not so trollish clusters". Do you still play RoR btw?

Maayan, if you could stop posting on forums with low level alts, it'd be nice.

When it comes to EU, playing with randoms will never help, even if you're trying to figure out the map (which Tito doesn't need anyways). Its a template played a specific way with coordination between players being key.

Sure there is an advantage gained by playing with alts, but it all comes down to skill, so it's not cheating.
