    [OPTIMISTIC] They're all balanced and all of them fit well into another, nothing is overpowered and all kits are decent. [/OPTIMISTIC]

    So... You're saying a game where if you're not ninja, soldier, medic, or chemist on offense you're screwed is balanced? You're saying chemists 200 hearts are balanced? You're saying mages insane midfield abilities are balanced?

    Well, the owner of this thread dident even add Chemist to the poll cus they thought it took the most skill.... ALSO if you look at the poll, Necro and Heavy aparently take the most skill. Sooo if you wana take this poll as fact you may as well go vote Donald Trump for president.

    You have forced me to write a long post my friend -.-

    Soldier, Medic, or chemist, 2/3 are for free, and 1/3 is premium. If that's directed towards non-donors, that's eliminated. That's your view, but from the views of others, you can basically use every single class for offensive. You can snipe from an angle (which I do) towards the spawn of the opposing team, meaning that you're on their turf, meaning that you're going offensive. You can capture the flag which is taken as offense, with ninja. You can assassinate players on the opposing team for an easier path for the soldier who is going to cap the flag. A dwarf can crouch (troll) in the opening of the spawn gate to prevent from the opposing team to exit. There's SO many more possibilites, and trust me, there's WAY more than one per class like I stated. It depends on the strategy, capture the flag is a broad topic if you think of it, is the game narrow-minded, you do something and expect the same results? No, that's the whole fun of it, no two games are the same no matter how many games you play, there's a different strategy for every single person, quite simply explaining why some outcomes are better than the other when playing a game. The possibilities are infinite when playing this game, likewise there is actually no class which is better than the other, it all rests on the skill of the player, and the limit of the player or the limit of Minecraft.

    Wtf... 200 hearts? plz explain, if you're talking about potions, I don't even want to talk about that honestly. But I can't just back off ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I hate talking about these subjects... but herewego. Sure chemist has a bunch of health potions and such, but like I stated before, it comes to the limits of the player's skill and Minecraft. The player's skill, there are many people in Minecraft, and I'm sure there are many people here who are familiar with PotPvP like I am. If you play it for a while, you can see how skill really ties in. You need to find the right timing to refill your health, there are many factors like I said previously to decide the outcome of the battle. There's also the limitations of Minecraft, I won't dive too deep about the potions limitations and such, but this is a rare case where CTF comes into play. Also I say this, there are many loops around this which involves pretty much skill, also if you're talking about potspamming I'd recommend hearing the thread of the wonderful m8 @Cybz located here.

    I dunno what midfield abilities are, so ye.

    There's no option ;-;

    By offense I meant ability to steal and capture the flag without being healed by a medic, assuming your flag remains at your base.

    I'm puzzled as to why you didn't include Ninja... well that being said, some classes are made for capturing. That's just how the game progresses, you can't capture with Dwarf? Boohoo, it wasn't meant to be played for capturing flags, even as I say this there are many people who Dwarf captured before, and like I said earlier, it pretty much all lies with the skill of the player and Minecraft itself.

    Heavy takes skill just not as much as others, but if you want my opinion engineer is the most easy or takes the least amount of skill to play.

    I have, it took me half a game to develop the skill to play Chemist. Now, im not saying Chemist dosent take skill, but then again I dont think you could count anything in this block game as real skill. But yeah, it may take some skill, it may not. Its all opinionated.

    BUT, calling me a nub is also an opinion, but its also completely wrong. As far as your aware I have more games invested into CTF with Necro then you have all to gether. Just took a little offence by that part.

    I feel Mages can be a bit OP at times.

    I'm guessing by the fact that you can plop down a turret and hide behind some wall ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

    Yeah, most engies, including myself, go hide in an enclosed area as archers are one of our biggest adversaries.
    Going afk as an engineer is not a good idea. Believe it or not, you have to be rather vigilant when playing engineer. You have to occasionally repair your turret, and you have to look out for potential threats to you, your turret, and your regenerator. Going afk while not in spawn is a pretty nooby action anyway.

    Chemist is fun class to random kill as along with mage. Sure chemist has a huge health pool and dmg output, but the best chemists will also help the team with buffs and regeneration to offensive ninjas. A lot of pro chemists are one minded and don't help their team.

    Place tp and cake in a hidden place near enemy flag. Run away. Place turret somewhere annoying; go hide in a corner. When your turret is destroyed, go back and make another one to contiunue trolling :smile:

    Bruh you forgot me, Im a pro chemist to I always helped my team. ANNND, the armor the chemist has is very bad, so you will need to check your health a lot. Necro is a camping kit and camping kits are for nubs. It does take a little more skill than engine, but still in the end necro doesn't require the skill that other kits do. And Aries you forgot something, All you do is go necro that proves your a nub: Fact! No offense but yeah anyways cut the things about irrelevant stuff. and thanks for the tea glass

    According to the polls, dwarf and mage are leading

    In my opinion, an archer or Mage that knows how to use the class is pretty deadly. (This goes for all classes, but these two seem to be the most common and prominent)

    Bullcrap considering pyro is an option. Theese people love to rage when a Mage kills them, and sometimes, yes, it takes little skill, but often it's not that simple. Being a good pyro is even easier, but you don't get the rage since the class is so campy. People don't understand the nuances of getting good at a class.
