Team Game Order

[chapcrap]

Do you think it matters what order you put your team in? I know that some teams like put themselves in a particular order. Personally, I do try to order my teammates in a particular order depending on the teammates and the map. I know that for some people I've talked to, they play order no matter what the map is. Do your opponents matter when putting in the order for the team?

Normally if we've played the same map together before, I keep them in the usual order, so we don't get used to being a certain color, then all of a sudden screw up because we're a different one.

If I'm the one inviting, and its a "regular" team of mine, this is always the case. I tend to invite the same order, everytime, every map, every game I play with regular mates.

When others invite, or tournaments / clan stuff i ask if it can be the same order, however quite often if im not in control of the order somehow it gets messed up.

This is exactly why I don't play in a usual team order. If you get invites from a tourney host in a different order and you're all used to another order, it might screw things up. When you're used to playing in different orders, this is less likely to occur. Besides, if you communicate every turn in gamechat, it shouldn't matter which order you are in.
