I was really impressed people could kite so far, so I tried it myself.
I personally prefer the term "juke", since I have heard kiting in games like Warcraft 3.. Killing In Transit (K.I.T) where you basically hit and run with no chance for them to retaliate. Juking was a term in Warcraft 3 / DoTA when you psyche out an enemy hero into running the wrong way. That seems like a better analogy, but I digress.
It is a pretty crazy rush to get a map and escape from the clutches of an invincible army so you can one day return and kick their butt! Although, I am pretty sure some maps are unkitable. I have sat next to the enemy and they simply do not move at all, making them TRULY unkitable. Perhaps I am wrong though as I am fairly new to this game, but I've nailed most navigation maps.
It also makes me wonder if kiting was truly intended in this game. Why make some units 100% immobile, mostly immobile, or really mobile?
In other cases, you got guys on a small island, and the second you land, they run at you. I ALMOST had it once, but I blew it. Too much real time lost trying to do it.
That said, I have kited some crazy stuff that I had no idea i could do. Every time I keep thinking "you have done enough, you can never get past those triple guards patrolling", I kept going and amazingly I pulled it off somehow!
My last game, I kited every map except Tekron and Montero? The Montero guards at Verana are truly unkitable, yeah?
