LLD 3v3 in Standard Today

Hi LLD'ers. I'm trying to organize a LLD 3v3 in standard today (and other days). EU server around 3 to 5pm EST (New York, USA) or 8 to 10pm GMT (London, UK). That two hour window appears to be the busiest time of the day for pvp.

Yesterday we played for a good couple hours, with a diverse range of builds played over the past couple of weeks. Was a lot of fun!

1. Lapiz's contagion build which appeared to be dominating yesterday.

2. Azunah's blast rain build with incredible damage.

3. Tanko's kinetic blast wand build. Incredible for 3v3's with high damage and range.

4. Thriller's SRS summoner. One of the first competitive summoners in LLD for quite awhile.

5. Runsucker's crit bow build using a number of different bow skills. One of top builds on server.

6. Huzak's sword and board melee. Tanky and good damage.

7. Insert Coin's EK, CWS build. Very strong especially with CWS procs.

8. Monsters cyclone facebreaker build. Was very OP. Not sure about after nerf.

9. Zeppelin and Lordsidro's Rain of Arrows with bleed blow (and other skills).

10. Firestorm build. Been very strong the past couple months.

I'm sure I'm missing a few builds. Point is, they are all relatively close in strength and compliment one another well in 3v3 matches. It's not all cookie cutter puncture trapper builds anymore.

If anyone is interested in playing today, you can add me: _Thriller_ to make it easier to organize. I've added a couple tweaks to my summoner since yesterday which I think will close the gap against ranged builds quite nicely. :)

I'm quite surprised that we have such variation in builds indeed. Melee still seems to be underrepresented and I think this has something to do with how good the mobility is for non-melee characters. Imo mostly due to Whirling Blades.

I've been recording the 3v3s every now and then and will upload a vid once I get around to editing it.

That's a great idea. It should help generate some more interest on pvp hopefully.

Really think people are going to maintain interest in pvp now that GGG has introduced more mindless spam skills like contagion that do DOT similar damage to Poison Arrow except they are inescapable or blade fall, the physical mirror to whispering ice? PVP was already in a broken state and as far as I am concerned its only become worse. Every update makes this game more of a mindless PVE button smasher.

I just hope someone is mindless enough to buy out my pvp gear, which at the current state of the game i feel is useless. Then again your crowd may grow as more of the booger eaters may be drawn in due to these broken skills.

Thanks for your valuable input.

Being new to LLD i've been surprised how friendly and helpful everyone has been!
It's been tons of fun meeting and playing with everyone :)

edit: I'm Azunah ingame ^^

These have been great indeed. Its quite cool how the 3v3 environment makes stuff more balanced in a way. Quite rarely the teams completely decide the outcome of the match.

Also we have had a huge variety of different builds which has created some fun synergies! I especially hate thriller+tanko on the same team -.-
