I've heard that Lock-Down's Great, up till T3. Is this True?
What Tier would you Recommend?
What do you have to do?
Do you get more Krogmo Koins than BN & How long is it?
How enjoyable is Lock-Down?

There's a lot more players
There's a lot more players for t3 pvp, that's for sure. However, you might want to wait until you get all 4* equipment before trying t3 pvp or you might end up just hurting your team

T2 PvP is pretty consistent.
T2 PvP is pretty consistent. I can always find a game though you might need to wait a few turns
I prefer T2 since there are less one or two hit KOs
BN takes 5 minutes and LD takes a maximum of 5 minutes but can be less if the point limit is reached.
They both give the same amount of krogmo coins

Lockdown is very fun.
I've tried T1 and T2 and I prefer T2.
T1 is a ghost town. It takes forever to play, it takes forever to kill someone, and it takes forever to do a rematch.
T2 tends to have a lot of people playing; you can survive pretty long if you're good and it doesn't take an eternity to kill someone, it's pretty fast-paced but you should make sure you have 3star stuff before trying it.

Lockdown t2
Lockdown T2 is quite possible the greatest thing about this game. You don't need mist to play any lockdown games, and the price is trivial. That said, t2 requires more skill than either t1 or 3, because in t1 it turns into who has the most health in a scrum of people standing there hitting. T3 consists of walking out the gate and getting one or two shotted as a striker. T2, however, is a perfect mix. Also, I have never failed to get a game when trying for t2.

t2 is just as unfair
with twisted snarble barbs and pulsar it can be just as hard.

The price of entry into T3 is
The price of entry into T3 is high, is what you mean. I've poked my nose back into LD recently to get some Enamorocks, and have been doing just fine, but that's with medium or better UVs on all gear and a large arsenal of fully heated 5* equipment. For a newly minted T3 knight with maybe two or three 5* weapons and only one set of armor, it is very unforgiving. One thing to watch out for is that status bombs are king in T3 Lockdown, particularly on small maps. The winning team is almost always the team that utilizes Shivermist, Voltaic Tempest, and Stagger Storm to their best effect. The two main exceptions are a large maps that require Strikers to cover ground fast, and teams of highly skilled Strikers. A skilled striker is very hard to counter. Otherwise, prepare to be frozen, shocked and stunned into submission.

It's all about T2. It's a fun
It's all about T2. It's a fun game, but the system needs improvement. Matching guild teams takes ridiculously long, and it'd be nice if you could choose to play random games with a few chosen friends in a party. Sort of the Xbox live party system.

T1's not so bad
I just started a day ago so perhaps it's not my place to say this but I enjoy playing lockdown. Out of all the times I've played I haven't had to wait more than 2-3 min and because there are no 1h KOs there is a lot of strategy to capturing a point.

To be good at T3 isn't that
To be good at T3 isn't that hard, once you get used to all the skolvers running around with gran fausts and FF's. To be amazing, you have to be those stereo typical T3 goers, but you have to actually have SKILL. :) I haven't tried T2 but it seems much less broken than T3. T3 especially depends usually on who's on your team, since the top players go there, and once you have a team of ashtails vs a team of skolver/ vog, you know you're screwed.
Also, i haven't played since the heart pendants were added, so now that it takes super long to kill those strikers, i don't know how much better/ worse LD has gotten.
P.S. Hai ironskullkid, saw you the other day :))

I've been trying to get all
I've been trying to get all the gear before I head up to T3 so I haven't experienced that one yet. T2 is quite fun, except when people from T3 come in with maxed gear and a knack for shield cancelling (that trick needs to be axed, legit or not), but thankfully truly good shield-cancellers are rare~

how do you shield in
how do you shield in ld?
also, it used to be fun, but now t1 is like "huh theres t1 ld? wtf is that?" so nobody joins it, t3 is skolver + da/gf/ff/btb as striker=instakill. t2 used to be so much fun when people were still experimenting but i hear its all dusker + flourish as striker now.
im in t3 and i cant get back into t2.why?

You shield in LD like you
You shield in LD like you normally do. If you're wondering why you don't HAVE a shield, you're using the wrong class. Read the rules, it should explain.
And as for the Tier problem, you need to unmark any T3 loadouts for PvP.

Nope
Im pretty below average in lockdown and after T1 the matche wins are all based on gear and trinkets, not skill. I myself prefer Blast Network because it's purely based upon skill. You also earn more Korgmos because the matches are shorter and more action packed. Blast Network doesn't need too many players to be fun but once the arena has more then 6 people playing at once it gets pretty crazy with bombs going off everywhere and it just becomes a game of who can spam faster.

Lol, since when was Bomberman "purely skill"?
Any idea how MUCH sheer luck is involved in bomberman games?

It depends if you like PvP and if you like it. If you have some lag, it can be unplayable (the enemy will always have a huge edge over you just because of that).
I would recommend Tier 3, once you get a full 5* heated equipmenent, simply because I heard there was not enough people in Tier 1 and Tier 2 so you spend forever waiting for a game.
You have to capture and keep the control of some points to gain some points over time. Killing enemies is not the primary goal, but it's also a good strategy as they have to wait for respawn (from 5 to 15 sec usually).
You don't get more Krogmo coins. 1 for a loose, 2 for a win, and additional coins if you bribe Krogmo and fulfil the requirement (either all player or only winning team). A game is about 5/10 min (+ waiting time).
