Guild Wars internal reporter Christian Brellisford brings us the latest edition of their State of the Game articles and writes about some aspects of Guild vs. Guild combat.
Flag stand battles are some of the most engaging and exciting fights in Guild vs. Guild combat.

Sometimes it takes upwards of 15 minutes of fighting before one team finally disintegrates; other times it happens in the first few bloody moments of the fight.
Breaking the enemy means pressuring until the opposition can no longer handle a full fight at the flag stand and must retreat or rethink strategies. There are many ways to break an opponent, from countering a skill to capitalizing on a positioning mistake to a catching a lucky morale boost. The Celestial Tournament generated some examples of this process I will discuss below.
