So in trials I promised top 3# in war if you voted for me. This was the first war with shards for all of us in the team. 4# places us better than all
teams before us
except for first war where they did 3#, dosen't countMid war we managed to hard counter 2-3 opponents a round which is truly amazing. We did several 4-1 rounds. Even when we faced 4 Generals the same round we didn't lose, instead we beat them all. We was never the team with the biggest vault and still we managed to compete until round 11. I'm very proud of what we have accomplished as a team!
So what took us there? We had a strong and active team. Things worked smoothly. Deck decision was finished 2-4 hours before deadline every time. We did barely have have any penalties. Predictions went really well and Rng was fair.
In the end what made us lose was
. We didn't have the decks we needed to compete with them and in the end where we meet them more frequently we lost. I feel like we could have done a lot better vs
. The problem was that the decks we wanted vs to use vs them already was locked for
, our prime opponent. We was 6-0 vs
in matches until second last round. We managed to 4-1
this war. We did ok vs both
and
.
which is a hard opponent for
went out earlier than usual. So if it wouldn't have been for
things would have been very different.
Jenkar: I paid 1120 for this player in the auction. Even 3 times that would have been worth it. Jenkarp did pretty much all vault building and did it flawless. He had lots of deck ideas and other thoughts. Not to mention Jenk-names in vault. And we shouldn't talk about activity. Invaluable in war
Joey: I always try to build a team of players with different styles and experiences. I didn't know anything about Joey before war except that he is considered a vet and had lots of tasty nymphs. I still I can't believe I paid 50 for him? even 500 would have been cheap, 50 was a steal. He had a ton of deck ideas and thoughts and great knowledge about other teams. So this wildcard turned out to be a bullseye.
Manaboy: Another player I paid 50 for. I know you didn't have lots of experience in war. In your app you said you was active and online several days a week. You contributed when you were online but I think you could have been online a bit more. All in all you meet my expectations.
Ryli: Another 50 player. You were pretty much a bonus player that we got. You were fairly active and contributed quite a bit. And considering your computer meltdowns and extreme work hours I can't understand how you managed. I also like to thank you for your deck checking and the big save you did round 11#. And you did exceed my expectations
Avengar: You were supposed to be the player who had experience in war with shards, simply since you played in last
war team. Instead you cost me 50 points and a
big tactical disadvantage in war bidding. If anyone who bidded for me in trials is mad we didn't go top 3#, blame it on this dude.
you know I'm joking, it's all a afdas fault for being op However I'm glad you was honest and said you wouldn't be able to play, instead of just disappearing.
Once again thank you team. I hope you learnt to love earth as much as I do. And thank you warmasters. And thank you all worthy opponents. And thank you Rng.
