What I'm basically getting at is the game to be won should be 'you' TO win and not help, no or yes?

No. FFA is played individually, without help, and Teams is played together with the help of a teammate. They are different games with different rules and objectives. Don't try to impose FFA rules on a Teams game. If you don't like the Teams variant, don't play it, but don't ignore your teammate if you do play a Teams game. That's just annoying for the people who actually do like to play Teams.

I don't play Teams variant, I have said that, and the only reason I created this thread was I was curious why others do play what only looks to be cheating at the game when the whole 'point' to the game is to OVERCOME the opponents attempting to overcome you, no?

"Also, two minds are usually better than one, so ideally there should be a two-way interaction between teammates. Waaa??? since when should another add to your thought where to move your piece? Of course I'm referencing not teaming, because it's still not your decision, were I to play teams, and why I do not.

 

You can learn from and support each other to perform at a higher level together.

And so is why I have created thread asking why would you? Would you ever play chess and wish someone to offer their take what's your best move?? So, if not, then why play the game that team's the moves? Confusing..

A team of two lower rated players who complement each other well can beat a higher rated player playing with a teammate who merely follows suggested moves." How then are they actually winning, regardless the game is claimed to be in their favor? Is not a game won 'you' TO win THAT GAME?

Who's imposing anything?

 

I simply am asking why does anyone play teams variant, what's wrong with that?

 

Someone helping with moves is not chess to me nor a game I care to play, what do you not understand there?
