I guess NW hasn’t evolved fully yet. The s key rule was a great step in the right direction
Theo we tried. But S key is best Key
Can't lose if you don't fight,
The S key rule wouldn't have changed anything, like I said in one of my posts.
Someones going to aggress, so an s keyer can s key all they want regardless of needing to throw an attack in 10 seconds.
and if no one is aggressing then both end up at fault and get docked a round.
Also, I played in the tournament that sleek talked about and for reasons stated above as well as others it changed literally nothing. The rule was implemented there to deal with situations they faced like Hokej v. Ledger who would go long periods of time without bothering to engage, just literally waiting for someone to lose patience first and others began adopting this sort of play style.
In NA, we don't really have people who will face off and neither will bother to do anything but wait for someone to lose patience.
Also as a sidenote, the rule wasn't even being implemented in this tournament correctly to begin with. Anthony's intention was that you needed to attack within the first 10 seconds and after that doesn't matter. In the European tournament, you had to throw an attack within at least every 10 seconds.
It wasn't a step in the right direction, it was just a step in a pointless direction.
