When u had 10000 u would be the king/queen and consider yourself extremely big. When I play solo nowadays I am glad when I make it to 7000... well it’s possible to get bigger by eating slow teamers but that’s not what I do, i usually try to keep away from them while some of course try to eat them. But that’s not my style.

You know... for me always the social aspect in this game was essential. When I played solo I always tried to play „fair“. If people send me w I wouldn’t eat them. And Never be a traitor to such an agreement.
When teaming started I was very interested... cooperating with others in a team, yes of course I wanted to do that. But people used to be traitors or bad players, they would trigger anti teaming and waste the teams  mass, and agar was so full of people it was hard to make friends because u wouldn’t meet anyone again. And also i was a bad team player. You know... there wasn’t a way to prevent teaming... anti teaming penalty only stopped split running and so slow teaming was invented and people started to use it more and more. I remember how shocked i was when it started... 16x gigantic players would try to eat me and viruses had no effects! That really was a shock for me. And then it got more and more popular... people „invited“ me to team with them. They would give me like 15000 mass to do the slow teaming thing... it’s Hard to resist to such a gift and I hated it to get eaten by the slow teamers again and again without a chance to defend. So I became a slow teamer on my own.

Here are some reasons why people do it:
- it’s easier once your are big enough
- it’s a „Safe“ way to keep being big... with like 20000 mass u need to consume as lot of food to stay big because you lose a lot of mass each second!
- u can be on the leaderboard for a long time
- ur getting all the fame, people see u, remember ur name, many want to team with u
- ofc it’s nice to play in a team
- other teamers will respect u
- It is very effective to level up quickly
- I guess it’s also effective to get good potions

And well another list because why not - this time: the most lame teamint techniques:
- when 16 split virusing smaller opponents - they can’t virus us, they can’t eat u because they are too small, but u virus them. That’s so lame...
- reconnecting: when in a duo team and one has a lot of anti team penalty (losing mass very fast), reconnecting to the server (reloading agar). Different  to when just respawning the anti team penalty will be gone! You then go back to your teammate who has the teams mass and then the teaming can go on
- super big teams: teams with up to 5 players - they can easily avoid anti team penalty and ofcourse they can shoot a lot of viruses on their opponents
- „clustered“ teams: when a large group splits into two or more teams that operate on their own but sometimes fight a mutual enemy. This is mean because the enemy probably doesn’t know they are working together and suddenly is attacked from two sides or from one sees but after they joined forces. Clans often do that.
- friends with all: that’s the most extreme form... if ur Friends with „all“ ... well not with all but with most of the players in the server. I have been on servers where all slow teamers were friends. If someone beats  one team another one would come and beat them and then give mass back to their friends... oh and such „friends with all“ people often complain that it’s too easy because they don’t have serious opponents... crazy!
- Skype / Discord: talking (Voice) which of course is the best way to coordinate a team and makes it more effective

    Wow, it's like your reading my mind and living my experiences. When person writes. Weren't very good and writes almost every experience I've had in this game must be a fierce warrior now. I respect that! To me the. betrayers are on my special list. I'm careful who I put on the list because I've eaten my own partner by accident. Sometimes they forgive other times you'll never know if you're in their list. I can forgive poor partners(the ones that miss more than they hit) to. I've had those times also.
    As for now I keep playing agario Europe in the morning and N.A. afternoon. Need a lot more practice. Been away for awhile. ISufferSoMuch is my name for now Making my new list

   Been stuck at home because of the coronavirus. Speaking of viruses I love virusing people in the game, especially those that have wronged me. Revenge is a weakness of mine. I try to avoid following someone who I think deserves a good virusing cause it makes the act of revenge that much harder when one knows they are being followed. Can't help it sometimes. More times than not I will get eaten by someone else because I'm too focused on revenge and not my preservation. Worse is when I go to virus that special someone, I've built up my mass to about 150 ( just enough to virus someone) and miss one of my shots and end up one w short of virusing him. Worse than that I end up missing him altogether cause the window of opportunity is very small when setting up someone to virus if they are aware you are trying to virus them. Even worse than that is when they counter attack while your shooting W's in the virus and with their one shot they virus you. The absolute worse is when you don't time your virus launch right and run into the virus yourself ( how humiliating) .Even after virusing someone he can virus you back because the virus is more than half loaded for another shot. Many things can go wrong when you seek out vengeance, but it is so sweet when you carry out your objective especially when he tries to virus you back and he keeps missing or exposes himself for an easy capture. For me launching viruses is a big part of the game. If you want respect from people who won't give you respect, eat them and hit them with viruses enough times and they will start to treat you differently. Takes a lot of practice to be accurate at virus launching, you will need to work the angles out when you are divided in two or more and launching viruses ( you launch viruses a lot quicker when you are divided in two or more). And watch out for the slow teams,avoid launching viruses at 16x monstrosities ( when huge masses are going towards a virus without looking worried it is probably one of those16x monstrosities) don't launch a virus at it. We all know what happens.
