To get back on track, here's the 40-minute compilation of the 1RDR matches from Saturday!



Great games, all.

[Klappspaten]

Damn, now that I saw that and I know that we would have had the time to get into a better position in the second match.
That whole tactic based on letting you know that we want to get you in our trap but not knowing how the trap looked like. I will work better next time. ^^

I ******* L O V E ambushes

P.S.: IF we should meet again, I promise I will think of something extra sneaky, just for you guys.

^ Yeah! Game 2 was a close one. I nearly soiled myself when I went in that tunnel and found your whole lance waiting for us when I was only expecting the Firestarter.

Yeah, we did two mistakes in that one.
The plan was actually to make you split up, but I thought our medium would have the entrance at C2 on his seismic, but he didn´t. So I had no warning from behind, and that broke us. At that point I thought all of you would come from the front, otherwise we would have pushed through over the hunchie, but we didn´t, and that was that. I wont make that mistake again. ^^

Maybe we meet again in the semis, or even the finals, I long for some payback.

That's the Fog of War for you. Afterwards, when you can see it from both sides, it always seems obvious what you should have done. But in the moment, with so many uncertainties, it's never so cut and dry.

Are KGC's legal for the second round? A lot of tournaments will ban mechs that aren't available for C-bills, like the Timberwolf until it came out for F2P players. We're good with it either way, just wanted to check.

You really want to use that walking CT?

[SuperAtomicAirplane]

We just want to know the rules.

[Jarl Dane]

Crabs are okay.

Also all remaining Asgard battles will be on frozen city night and all remaining Midgard battles will be on mining collective.

Why is that?

Indeed, why is that? I'd be pretty disappointed if I had to play on Mining Collective - my framerate is deplorable (~15) on that map and a lot of people crash on it.

[Jarl Dane]

Just wanted to stabdardize the rest of the matches.

The last few maps in Asgard were always going to be Frozen City Night. But I didn't have an end game for Midgard. Thought mining collective is a fitting place for someone on the edge of getting back into Asgard. We can do frst match mining collective and next one hpg manifold, for Midgard.

[Cosmocat]

Thanks to the 5th Drakons for some fun matches tonight. You guys deserved your wins. Thought we might have had you in that third round during the flank, but you managed to turn it around and smash us to bits. Good job all around and thanks for playing us.

[Vhetra]

It was tons of fun. We thought you guys had us, too. It was a close thing for sure.

[The Riksdag]

The 1st RDR Muspell win the Tournament for the second year in a row! An elite veteran lance within the FRR.

The 5th Drakons: GGitY won 2nd place, moving up from 4th place last year!

And the Isengrim: Jarlsguard got 3rd place again.

Mech The Dane will make an official final post tomorrow evening with an updated bracket and jazz.

Great work everyone. Way to make the Gods happy and the Yule joyous.

We had you wondering where we where in that second match, didn´t we?

[Grim DeGrim]

Narwhaals salute with our spiritual horns! Though Spears are broken and shields torn asunder, we stood back to back facing the onslaught of both 1RDR and 5th Drakons. Congrats to these 2 finalists.

I'm a bit under the weather, but intend make some videos this week.

As a note: PGI is sponsoring a small prize for the winners, same as last year. The guy is on vacation until January... So you can expect a small token by end of month

THANK YOU TO PGI, and a very large thank you to the FRR community in supporting this event.
