its nothing you can do about this though. its infectious. if somebody gets killed this way, he will probably convert to being a prick himself.

I wouldn't call hit and run cheap.
Let's face it: Some classes ARE built for hit and run. Ele's are known as the suicide class that can nuke anyone but is known to get killed by a leaf blowing in the wind, and Jesters have a skill to help them sneak in, a skill to get a quick kill, and then a skill to help them out run anyone.
If those aren't built for hit and run, I dunno what is. And we've always had hit and runners.
Still, the codes of honor and pride are gone. Yes the pride one could also be annoying, but not THIS annoying. Pride made people never back off, but this weird lack of pride still has people not backing off, but also resorting to the most dick tactics just to kill you.
What's sad is, the two tactics that come to mind are:
1) Using sneaker to make your enemy helpless. This doesn't work 100% on every class, but it does hinder just about every class in some way, and every class has some way they can attack without being in direct range of their opponent.
2) Killing someone on the side of the arena. I mean really, what's the point? You've just proven you can kill a person who isn't aware they're inside, nor are they prepped for battle. Good game, dumbass. At this rate you're a sure-win for next week's scheduled fight against a pre-schooler with downs syndrome.
What's sad though, is I think the simple reason is, both of these couldn't be done before. Before sneaker, only a Psy could satan, and it was short and required the Psy's attention. Plus we didn't have that many psys cause they still leveled rly slow. So yeah, it wasn't so good. Then for the edge of the arena, you could in some cases, but it was always a risk, as the boundary line between 'safe' and 'going purple' wasn't defined so well.
So really, the conclusion there is: People have always been childish pricks, it's just they haven't had the chance until now to show it. Pretty sad, really... D:
@Sinner- I had two asal BP's do that today, too. Doesn't change the fact that what they'd been doing or started doing was freaking pathetic.
