Happy birthday MDL.
Maybe a good time to express once again gratitude to Deadman for having built that great ladder.

And a good time as well to invite people to join it :
Whether you are in a competitive mindset, or willing to improve, or just in the mood for a few extra casual MD games on cool strat settings, that shall be the place to go.

Casual players : sure Quickmatches are cool. But the matchmaking there is often disappointing and you may be fed up with people who leave without saying goodbye (good news, there is a boot filter on the MDL), or tired of getting farmed by Rufus/Timi/alex (good news : the matchmaking mechanism on the MDL is relevant), or, with all those bad non-strategic templates you've already vetoed, you are starting to get bored of the same 10 templates you're playing (good news : all of the 47 templates on MDL are strategic and you even have a few vetoes if you are allergic to MA). So just join that : http://md-ladder.cloudapp.net/

Willing to improve : maybe you have already found one of those formidable tutors in the community (there are a few, and they are doing a great job) and you are having a nice run on the 1v1 ladder. Maybe you have teamed up on the 2v2 ladder with a clanmate who delegates to you the task of counting. Maybe you have already heard about the MDL and had a look at it but were displeased to see it includes WR, or thought that it was too much of an effort to learn so many templates. Well I think you should think twice about it :

  • joining the mdl will certainly not hurt you : who cares about a few initial defeats and a disappointing rating when starting ? Playing and losing is certainly the best way to understand a template. Once you've played it and got a feeling, you may have a look at a few games by good players (the website allows you to dive into more than 17,000 games if you want to)

  • it might make you discover and enjoy a bit of the depth of the game. 0% SR is fine and correctly counting the number of leftovers on the board can be satisfying, but Warzone is much richer than a super-sudoku puzzle (© 89thlap) : it is also about risk management, pattern recognition and metagaming; and most of the fun and skill is there.

  • it shall make you learn a lot and improve : playing non-standard settings will help you get a better understanding of those aspects of the game. Is the board brawly or expansionist ? How do I balance my picking strategy between early income and coverage ? How shall I behave in a brawl ? Will Rufus defend his bonus ? (hint : he probably will not)
    So go there http://md-ladder.cloudapp.net/ and click on the Login button.

    Competitive player : let's stop complaining about the flaws of Bayes Elo or QM rating inflation; Math Wolf and Deadman have crafted for you the rating system you have always dreamt of. Let's stop posting on boring threads about stalling and undeserved trophies; the only reason Rufus has been n°1 for 100 days is because you weren't there to kick him of his throne.
    So you know what you have to do : go there http://md-ladder.cloudapp.net/, click the Login button, choose a number of simultaneous games and join the fight.

    Well played malakkan!
    This indeed is a motivating read to join MDL rather sooner than later. Your post deserves to be much more visible to everyone - just as the ladder itself.

    can you update description on Pangea Ultima template to have the normal nice stuff you have (starts, armies per start, etc)?

    I love on MDL that you don't have to open full settings very often.

    Ugh, i am going to have to veto pangea (already used all mine). Why is that map SO slow? Every click lags for me on mobile (i have that issue with no other map).

    Any chance we can get that template removed? Sucks to be forced to veto just because someone did not lower the file size on the map.

    I have no idea how I can still post in this lol - shouldn't it be you can't post in a forum after 30 days of the last post?

    As ChrisCMU said above (2 years ago lol) , Pangea, as of late, has been lagging the WZ app out and shutting it down. Even big diplomatic maps don't do this, but this small map does...

    Is that happening to any others?

    Thanks a lot to Fizzer for reactivating this thread!

    We recently had a small redesign of the clot page and renamed the ladder to the Multi-Template Ladder. There will be more updates to come!
