[R1] (Fire) Gen. ~Napalm 0 ~ (Light) Lt. Zeru 0

Seems pretty sad when everyone thinks this was the best choice for team .....that means there was something wrong I think lol

There was absolutely nothing wrong with our vault. We simply wanted to avoid a Zeru vs majofa match.

I think he was meant that there was something wrong with the event card.

While I like the final event card, there are a lot of mods I would make to it.

[MrBlonde]

Wow.... Death fully expected light to win this matchup with a RoL/Hope combo. Hmmm guess it's time to change our strategy.

Who possibly could have expected this outcome...

Pretty sure everyone was expecting this.  Likely means more/better options for general who has one fewer match to make it to the finals.

I guess maybe people didn't understand what i meant lol basically some of the event cards including this one has screwed over teams in the top position by taking away any kind of advantage they had, this one may even be the worst, so of course everyone knew they were going to suicide it was the only good option.

Shoulda gone for it. You should've played through it too. xD

You lose 100% of the matches you forfeit.  All for what? Increasing your chance of victory in another match by... 5%? 10%? I would always choose two matches with 30% odds vs. one match with 50% odds. 

I do not think this a smart move by light, nor do I think any suicides are smart.

I don't know what cards Light converted, but I can't really see any advantage to this over giving Zeru their 30 worst cards and hoping he still wins, unless they couldn't give Zeru a legal deck and leave Majofa with a good vault.  Their decks would still have remained hidden, and if they scheduled Majofa's match first, they'd still keep his deck a mystery, and his is the more important battle. (general ups and 1 round ahead)  I may be overlooking something, though.

Well, that's a flawed plan.
A vault with a 30% win rate each match has a 2.7% chance to win 3 matches, and a 0.9% chance to win 4.
A vault with a 50% win rate each match has a 12.5% chance to win 3 matches.

Take a guess; which is better?

Light would only want to field two decks if a suicide would hardly help the other deck.

The suicide is mainly because they knew their deck stood no chance and didn't want to strenghten us with real salvages instead of pillars.
