Loss was something that kept me playing EVE for years. I learned more from the losses than kills and I still find I will need more losses to improve myself.

One day, Rekina and I talked about building our own small pvp oriented corp, one that I was never involved in before. With handful of friends like Fnordybrachy, it was more than enough start our goal in Maladapted Tribe. We've seen numerous enemies and camps and struggled to fight them in our small numbers. We lost as much ships as we killed, but we weren't discouraged, even though some fights were beyond our capabilities.

I find there are much easier forms of 'pvp' in EVE. We can get thousands of kills pressing F1, but we refuse. We would like to keep try this inefficient and foolish pvp. This is what we call, MALADAPTATION.

First,


Will download when I am hame.

Edit: Found myself skipping through most of, fights looked fun and all but me as a person just feel as if gang links and tier3's have been beaten to death. Perhaps not in the media way but from personal experience it gets boring, to the point I end up not bringing gang links so that I actually have a chance of dieing vs the many scrubs that shoot at me. It was also a little annoying that there was no watch list!!!! Get one bro, so we can see how much danger the primary is actually in :D

Defo a 10/10 for music, editing and being 100% fair the fights were very high quality and defo worth a watch.

nicely put together video, the fights are a good showcase of very effective small gang tactics and compositions, piloting was good aswell! music and editing was solid.

one of the better small gang videos i have seen, worth a watch, maybe two. would recommend to friends aswell.

Why do you call it solo pvp?

@Gibbo3771
Thank you for your comment! We will take your feedback seriously. We also died a lot even though we had links cus obviously we suck at pvp :D About the watchlist, we also bugged gonrin but he was just too cool to give a little damn to his friends.

@are34
You gave us too much compliments. Thank you for being nice!
But we both know the piloting were pretty bad.

@Bluetippedflyer, awhiplash
You guys are in our pub chat :D thanks for watching and being in there

Great video with some great figths and fantastic music.

I have to agree with Gibbo about the entertainment of nanoing. There have already been many videos with it and even though the piloting is fantastic, the fights tend to look very simple so its hard to spot the skills of the players. However I do not doubt your skills. You still went against larger forces and came out on top.

The Deimos/onerious/cruiser fight was very good. You should definitely mix in more fights like that to make your videos more interesting. If all fights are very different it tend to keep ppl more hooked.

I liked the editing, but be careful with changing the music too often. While you generally had some longer fights it wasn't a problem, but if the fights get too short and the music changes each time it can make the video seem a bit disjointed. Haeri from Club Bear made a great video, but he made that mistake, so it did unfortuneately pull the video abit down. Also it would be nice to have a counter for everything you are up against rather than just what you have killed. But thats a small detail.

But once again, great video. I love your spirit so keep up the good work.

❤️️💛💚💙💜

I didn't know that liking other people comments actually counts on the thread's like lol If I made you guys confused I apologize about that.

@Lemster
I love you and you know it

@Mizhir
You pointed out an awesome tip here. We will try to make the next vid(if it comes) with mixture of varity fights. About the counter for all the hostile ships, I've asked gonrin to do so, but he refused it because he didn't want to work hard. Now I can say to him "I told you so."

Thank you for your feedback!

You are welcome.

So GonRin is a lazy slacker, ehh. Slap him real hard for not putting the fleet on watchlist and cutting corners with editing P

I forgot to add one thing. You should get as many ppl as posible to record the fights and then do some magic editing and show the fights from different point of view. Much like RNK. That would be truely awesome and could have made some of the nano fights more interesting (like the one where GonRin is dashing around in an oracle while the rest of you are alot closer to the target in your drakes).

Edit: The split POV would also be pretty awesome for the cruiser fights where you had your deimoses chasing different targets.

Definitely. We were just too lazy to do that but the idea came up to us too. Let us work on that for the next video \o/

I enjoyed that, very nice video. I have no idea how you manage with those overview settings though ;)

One thing I always like to see is when someone uses links that they show that. But definately a nice video and look forward to seeing more of your work.

Got bored when I noticed links being run but not advertised in the video (as a few people have taken to doing lately, at least). It kinda offset the whole "Most people have to use logi to get advantages, etc etc." intro, and although fighting outnumbered, links are a massive force multiplier for the types of fleets run.

@Jezs, DR BiCarbonate
It is very hard to find a music that pleases everyone. When we have to find a bunch of them... boy. I'm sorry for your disappointment, but there were not much options we could choose. If you let us know what kind of music you guys like, we will strongly consider to put them into our next video :D Thank you for your comments.

@ElextriX, Mirrodin
We didn't think "advertising" of links was necessary - and we still don't. We left right side of fleet window can be seen, which we thought it would be more than enough to make people notice "ah, there is a link."

Yes, we use links many times. It's partly because we want to win the fight of course, also it's partly because we are bad pvpers enough without those links help. Either way we don't think it makes the whole fight unfair since we don't care whether our enemies have links or not. We would engage them anyway. (and we lose ships all the time even if the links running)

The intro part - it is just a concept of being silly. I hope you won't take it too much seriously :) Thank you for your feedback.

I'll just reiterate
TL;DR of the video is "dumpstering uncoordinated camps in M-O/KBP-/EC- using kiting ships and force multiplication".
Which is in itself very fun gameplay, also fair enough since its pretty hard to find actual 0.0 engagements with 3-4 people that arent picking on kitchen-sink camps or carebear harassment/escalation.
Still not super interesting to watch and has been done a lot.
I'd say dont edit out the ingame clock so people can see if this kind of action is to be had in their timezone.
Your Oracle fit kinda makes me cringe, but thats just me.
Editing/music is good.
