The Developer
They came up with the game. They made the game. They published the game. They play the game.
The skill level for them varies, some are good some are bad. Generally friendly dudes.

Status:
very uncommon

How to spot The Developer.... or a Developer.. I guess

- They have weirdly coloured names
- They have wierdly coloured icons
- They are very casual and normie
- ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Sandern
AFK'er
Probably the most boring of them all, the AFK'er is most common in pub lobbies. He usually sits there for countless hours while desperete players join in, in the hopes they will play a game. To their disapointmet - they don't. The AFK'er will just sit there and not realise how many souls crossed him that day.

Status:
very common

How to spot the AFK

- In a lobby they wont say anything
- In a lobby they wont do anything
- In a lobby they shall spend a great portion of their hours in Lambda Wars
The NewBee
Not to be confused with "Noobs" the "NewBees" guys are fairly common, pretty much are people who just installed the game and are learning the game to have fun and what not - all people start from this phase and evolve forward in their Lambda Wars life cycle into many other categories.

Status:
common

How to Spot a Newbee:

- They ask a lot of reasonable questions and you can instantly tell they are new
- They like to play in teams
- They are generally polite
- They try to win
The Leaver
They join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave, they join, they leave...

Status:
they join, they leave...

How to spot The Leaver.

-He Joins
-He Leaves


The Noob
The "Noob" is a evolution of a Newbee, similiar to the Newbee they can be found in rather large numbers in lobbies and theur lobbies usually stay named "New lobby". This is most likely because they did not evolve to understand how to change the name of the lobby and their gameplay skills can also be rather limited.

Status:
very common

How to spot a Noob.

- He will ask a lot of dumb questions.
- He will leave the game before the game is over or will end the match of he gets defeated
- He plays with friends against bots
- He will kick you if you play against him or against his friends
- He will kick if you if you tell him the gameplay basics
- He will kick you or your friends if he looses to you
Defender Class Noob
Defender Class Noob or the "DCN" is another set of poor players who failed to evolve in the "Average Joes". These players are particalurly known for their trench warfare, prefering to dig in and fight. However the starnge part about the brain of a DCN is that they believe they have a chance of wining the game by simpky digging in and holding the few if any flags they have. In most cases they will just build turrets and build up their forces somewhere near the entrences of their base and will then begin their headcrab bombardment.

Status:
common

How to spot a Defender Class Noob

- They will not contend for control points early game
- They will most likely not do that for mid game either
- They might attempt contending for points late game
- They will most likely die before they will get it in their head that attacking is key in RTS games.
- They will headcrab you, it most cases
- They leave the game before it's over
The Over'runned
For the most part the "over'runned" is what you end up with when you get a bad tree of evolution.... because this player type is the worst case scenario of what happens to a Noobs life cycle. Pretty much what these guys do is play over'run for most of their online experiance - don't even try convincing them to switch the gamemode to competitive or some other PvP type mode.... You want to to know why? Because you will get kicked, that is if you don't get kicked out right away to begin with.

Status:
common

How to spot The Over'runned

- You join a lobby
- The lobby is titled Annihalation
- It switches to Overrun
- You get kicked
- or
- You don't get kicked
- But then get kicked because he wants to play with friends or bots
The Average Joe
Okay, okay - this one is my favorite. The Average joe is a player who usually has eighty or more hours spent in the game. He knows how to play and is rather passive in the way he plays.

Status:
uncommon

How to spot The Average Joe:

- He will capture flags.
- He usually can speak english or at least understand it.
- He will always work in the favour of his team
- He can sometimes come with a sense of humour
- He will usually play support for the higher league players
- He will usually accept a 1v1 offer
The Angry Joe
The Angry Joe refers to the players that know the game very well enough and are seeking perfection in their Lambda Wars skills (mostly). However, they get very upset and annoyed when people use crappy by their standerd tactics and ask question - because of that they angerly type away with rage.

Status:
uncommon

How to spot The Angry Joe

- He will scream at you for upgrading the flag too early
- He will scream at you for upgrading the flag too late
- He will scream at you for asking when to upgrade the flag
- He will scream at everyone when he upgraded the flag by accident himself
- He will scream when he looses the game and will blame everything on team mates or lag
- He uses caps more than normal
- He will get overexcited when he begins to win
The Apprentice
The Apprentice is usually a player with a couple hundered hours on his Steam clock and is a dedicated member of the Lambda Wars community, so much so that he found a high teir Lambda Wars player and became his apprentice in order to learn all the secrets, tricks, tips, features, bugs, advantage spots. He his training is complete - then he will one day become one of the most feared Lambda Wars player.

Status:
Very Uncommon

How to spot The Apprentice:

- Playing against him, you will realise that in about five minutes all control points on the map are under his control
- Playing against him, you will find that the control points he does not have - he will fight over fearlessly
- In about the same time he will have AR2 Squads ready
- In two more minutes your base will be constantly attacked by waves of his forces
- He will fight to the end (in most cases)
- He will always have some sort of units building for war
- He will never refuse to go on a 1v1
- Top kind of team player
- Will less likely share gameplay strategies

Spec
The "Spec" or "Faction Specific" is player that always plays only as one particular faction to his liking. They always great teamembers because they instantly know what they are going to do and where to go. High level Specs can easilly go toe-toe against all low to mid range type of players, higher experianced Specs can even go toe to toe up front against an Apprentice.

Status:
very uncommon

How to spot a Spec.

- He will use every single available asset of his faction to his advantage
- He sucks using the counterpart faction or is not effective enough with it
- Some Specs can be seeing playing at a level of higher teir players such as the Apprentice
- They know what they are going to do before a match even starts
- They are very good team mates.
Lambda Master
The most highly experianced and skilled group of players out there. If a Lambda Master enters a game and the other team does not have either a Apprentice or a Spec - you are doomed. These players can play any game mode and as any faction with ease and deadly speed. Some Lambda Masters can even go so far as playing 1v2, 1v3 or 1v4 games and still win. The majority of Lambda Masters who play always have an Apprentice that they pass on their knowlage to.

Status:
Rare

How to spot a Lambda Master

- They play with their Apprentice
- If you are on the same team as them, you will see them mentor their Apprentice.
- They are the best type of players utilizing every resource to help themselfs or their team (eg. chatting, pointing out locations on the minimap)
- They all have different reactions to everything happening in the game, some get angry when you fail to do something at their standered - others will help you out.
- They almost never loose.
Lambda League Legend
Sit tight - the abbreviation is easy, just call them "Tripple-L". Anyways, Tripple-L's are so rare that there is only three of them. Lambda Masters talk about these guys in lobbies, forums, game chats - everywhere and chances are you might have played with at least one of them.

Status:
Actually Easy to Run Into

List of players that are titled with "Lambda League Legends"

Handsome Jack (Aka Morris) - The first Lambda League Legend who dominated the game for almost two years. He had an Apprentice Dr Mad - who is currently a Lambda Master. Handsome Jack is the only recorded player to have beaten another Tripple-L player "Anubis".

Anubis - Winner of the Lambda Tournament, first person to defeat jack and his fulltime crew.

SuperMegaNoob - The most active and feared player to this day. He perfected strategies tought to him by his master Crazy and defeated all champions at the time. Currently he is active but people are so scaredof him that he has to change names every week in order to play with someone.
