I have a screenshot how another player knew which terretories I would choose. How could he have known this? Is this cheating?

They probably just guessed you would pick the best territories...would be interested to see that screenshot though.

Nope, he did not just guess, he knew. How can I share the screenshot best?

There are multiple websites for sharing images; if you don't have an account of any, imgur.com doesn't need an account.

gamelink?

also he was proably not cheating, there's many ways to know where your opponent picked. Most obvious is if you pick A as first pick, but don't get it, then you know your opponent have A.

Was this after the game had ended? Then territory picks become visible in History.

you can always see where teammates start and what Hennns said (good tactic)
In tournaments some players tend to pick the same territories each time in several games, which makes it predictable for the next tournament game where you propably will start.

Some players, who are really good, know the best starting spots in a game. Its not hard to figure it out. Also it depends on the map as well.

This is the link to the screenshot: http://imgur.com/FwCPSr6
And this is the story: We played in a team and you see the conversations before the game started (all green areas). Player "desert Fox" knew which areas I had chosen, even before the game started. I cannot understand how he could have known this.
Many thanks,

you can view the picks of your teammates after they've commited
follow these simple steps:-
check the players menu in the right bottom of your screen
click on the name of the teammate
you will fine few options out of which one will be to view your teammate's orders
that option will be clickable if your teammate has commmited,and you can view their picks/orders

He's your teammate, so he can see your picks once you've made them. Simply click on their name, and you'll have an option which says "View Teammates picks", after distribution you can use the same feature to see your teammates orders.


E: Guess I'm too slow :p

Many thanks for the info, Henns!

Hundreds of team games and doesn't know that teammates can see territory picks? Eesh

ikr

Its less known than you'd think.

^ Right. Most people I know still announce their picks in Team Chat, and I can't tell whether they're doing it just because it's more convenient or because they genuinely don't know about the Teammate Orders feature. Given the number of times my team's picks have been an absolute clusterfuck in random tournaments I enter, I'm worried it's really the latter for most people.

Most interesting: he picked two territories different than the two that he said. Does he know what is a TEAM game?? I have met some folks who play team games alone, against the teammates, against everyone...

Its always good to announce in chat simply so you can be more strategic for example when in chat i often outlay a plan for the whole team and not just my own picks so that we can all achieve good coverage of the map, just my opinion anyway..
