User talk:Saxazaxx/Team - 7 Hero Heart of the Cards

Build Name
I know I will probably get flack for the name. I will change it if I need to, however, there are plenty of comps called "-way" which originates from the "IWAY!" (I Will Avenge You!) comp. I also saw a build called "Z-way," which happens to have been vetted out. I mean to say that such names are arbitrary, coined phrases. I would like to keep the name but I will change it if need be. Would it be allowed if I put "Heart of the Cards" in quotes in the title?--Saxazaxx- IGN: Saxazax I (capital i) or Saxazax I I - (talk) 03:51, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * IWAY (and pretty much all similarly named builds) got recognized among the GW community as a whole with those names before even being posted here. So they got posted with the names people would actually look for. They also usually had some justification for the name related to the build (or the case of Sab- and Rac- ways, the author - that said, you don't get to name an entirely new build after yourself here). I'm not seeing how a Yugioh catchphrase relates to a full paragon team (and even if it does, that's still a pretty questionable name choice), so you'll have to change the name to something more descriptive of the team.

 * This sort of team build has been referred to as Paraway for ages, so an approriate name would probably be Build:Team – 7 Hero Paraway. On a side note: It does not require 7 mercenary heroes, just 3. Or, if you want to treat Keiran Thackerey as similarly hard to unlock as Zei Ri, either 4 mercenary heroes or 3 and Keiran. --Krschkr (talk) 10:13, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Re: Toraen: The name is actually very descriptive if you know the reference and can figure out the thinking behind it. I really see this comp as a game changer and the reason for its effectiveness involves an element of "magic," perhaps. That clue would be lost if I did change the name. I will change the name, however, I leave it up to you to figure out why I named it that. Take a close look at those skills! I put basically zero effort into making this build; I just had an idea.
 * Re: Krschkr: I had no idea about Paraway even after all my years of playing... I got the idea for this from what was mentioned merely as a joke while talking with some pvpers--one jokes that we should run 8 paragons in gvg and everyone laughs and says "it would work!" sirs, do i have news for you... - IGN: Saxazax I (capital i) or Saxazax I I - (talk) 11:39, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * One shouldn't need to know about a totally unrelated element of pop culture to understand the lemma in a lexicon style website. If you want to go back in the history of paraway style builds you may also look for Racway, which was a somewhat popular hero team build based on paragon heroes in the pre-7-hero era. --Krschkr (talk) 12:00, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

If you've put very little effort into making the build (as you've said) and several of the skills are only present to make the name work, I'd suggest it go into your userspace for now. Also, paraway has indeed been known for quite some time (probably ever since Nightfall was released) and is notably survivable but usually very slow in comparison to other comps (especially if the team goes all-in on paragons).
