Well considering you are not, and never were in the high tiers of sparring, you have no idea what you're talking about. Strafing is a requirement for good sparring, period, and all good sparrers strafe.

And I don't like that "iDevices are Graals future," and I never will. And I don't have too. Not to mention PC Graal has not seemingly been supported (hardly) at all these past years would show that the only way Graal could have any popularity anymore is through the iDevices, which is entirely on Stefan and Unixmad's hands.

Because I don't enjoy sparring against kids who can't even defend themselves against things us PC sparrers have long since been used too. I like a challenge.

The reason why sparring is even remotely skill based is because of the even-playing field. Equal movement speed, equal freedom of movement, equal damage dealt, equal starting health, and reduced/no lag are what make for great spars. If someone can't even maneuver the same way inherently because of the device they're on, I'll personally win 9/10 times just because they won't be able to avoid sidehits, or a simple blink movement.
