Rubbish vs. The Professor?
Winner: Rubbish
Comments: Well played. He got more blocks (not many) which put him ahead. Had I got them I might have won. But it I would say game was evenly matched.

Rubbish vs The Professor?
Winner: Rubbish
Comments: My center wardless vs his one side setup; I took advantage of him early on the game by killing his asassin freely then exchanging his pyro, chanty and cleric for my pyro and witch which gaved me the game. It was a preety fair game, not based that based on luck or other secondary factors. Well played Prof & Good game

Okay, Mag is gone for a week or so. He e-mailed me his bracket spreadsheets but my e-mail has been really obnoxious for the last few days, so I just made a simplified bracket of my own for what remains.

DQs are set for this Tuesday for Lemon and Slayer.
Mind giving me and Slayer a small extension? We talked today, and he said he will be away until Tuesday. We agreed to play at 3 PM GMT +3.

Lemon, please clarify this. Does this mean you have agreed to play at 3 PM GMT +3 on Wednesday? I need to know how much of an extension to give you guys.

As a reminder, Deto and AFO are scheduled to play tomorrow.

The Winner of Winnner's Bracket just has to win one of two games (Game 135 or 136) to be Champion right?....The Winner of Loser's Bracket has to win both (135 and 136) ...or not?

I said I had the advantage after you misclicked - the match was fairly even up until that point.

I knew the moment I agreed to reset, I would lose. It was inevitable... it always happens with me. :(

AFO vs. Deto
Winner: AFO
S/s: upon request

My corner turt vs. his center. He played bad at the start.. I played worse. He should have gone up a unit, but my witch blocked allowing me to take his knight for my witch. We danced around for a little bit with me providing a little more damage to his knights. He put a lot of pressure on me with his witch and received a saving sassy side block. I decided that it was best for me to attack as I had the knight advantage. He attacked at the same time, but i guess I just ended up doing the better job. A few mistakes by him at the end sealed the deal for me.

Detonation vs AFO
Winner: AFO

I think I coulda won if I wouldn't done a couple of dumb mistakes at the start and the end, he beat me by 2 knights. AFO played pretty good at the end. Gg anyways.

he can have the win or play tomorrow at the same time..

07-15-2008, 06:31 AM
Well, this is quite annoying. Obviously I'll take my time, we're pretty far in the tournament and I don't want to make careless mistake. And seeing how you suggested this time... Anyway, I dont want to take a win like that, so If hosts are okay with that, i'd like to continue playing tommorow... Here's where he left.

http://i36.tinypic.com/2mmwf7l.jpg

Im yellow.

His scout is on -130 or something, with one turn wait. His DSM-pyro is with -20 or something similar. My knight is on wait as well. My scout is on 23.

Mithrandir
07-15-2008, 06:37 AM
This is the first time I've ever seen the dsm in a grey game helpful. In this case, to distinguish between pyros.

Slayer, stop using my noobish three mage corner turt.

Mag is gone. My call is that you guys use the screenshot and set it up precisely, and finish the game.

Hoolwath
07-15-2008, 07:05 AM
Yellow has the advantage.

Mithrandir
07-15-2008, 07:24 AM
Oh, I almost forgot. -130 blocking for a scout is a very big deal, as is -20 for a pyro. This needs to be recreated as well (which could result in needing multiple tries). I would recommend damaging everything else, then front-hitting the pyro (and then healing), and then side-hitting the scout but having it block. It could be a pain, but lemon deserves it.

Rubbish
07-15-2008, 07:30 AM
That's going to be a pain in the ass to reconstruct.

Mithrandir
07-15-2008, 07:32 AM

Yup. If Slayer doesn't want to reconstruct it, he can just give lemon the win. Again, those blocking adjustments are extremely significant.

Mag and I gave Slayer and Lemon an extension to play their game when they started it. Now it isn't finished, because Slayer had to leave (arguably when he is at a disadvantage). I'm not holding up the tournament for him anymore. Someone is advancing at the end of the day tomorrow. If the game is not complete, it will be Lemon.

I don't like DQs this late in the tournament, but he leaves me no choice. Slayer is DQed. Whether he's trying to avoid you, or is having an activity problem right at the deadline (actually, past the extension of the deadline), either way he's DQed.

Lemon_ vs Detonation. Let's finish this out quickly please. DQs at the end of Saturday, but you guys are active enough that you should get this done in a day or two. Please do.

AFO vs. Legend Z
Winner: AFO
S/s: Upon request

His wardless center vs. my wards center. I went for his scout and witch first trying to put him on the defensive, but he sacrificed his witch and pyro for my witch in order to stop that. From there it was mostly a knight war with neither of us having the ability to really break through. He had quite a few sub 50% saving blocks in the middle of the game which helped him quite a bit. My luck came in a couple consecutive knight blocks that were pretty useless to me. I ended up attacking when he went for my cleric and overpowered him with my remaining knights. A 41% assassin kill helped a lot and my pressure allowed me to save my cleric as well.

So, let me know what time and day is the best one for you to play.

Hey, thats 10 hour difference. How about 12 AM your time (I guess 12 AM = midnight. These AM/PM nonsences are confusing) on thurday? I realize its very late for you, but it seems its the best for both of us... Tell me what you think.
I can't play later than 12:00 AM on thursday. earliest I can play is from 11:00 PM on thursday. So how about 11:00 PM thursday?

Well, alright. Im really pushing it (I usually wake up at 1 PM or something) but it seems we wont be able to play at other times. See you then. :)

Depends on what kind of wardless center. If it's a center with units away from LW ranged and not designed for turtle flanking then maybe.

First, why don't you use wardless? :p

Second, I think TACTO's setup was made to pwn a center setup quite easily, what Isaac does pretty much screws him up, because TACTO normally sacrifies his witch for BW, and then makes the game real easy, Isaac instead has witch one place down to protect cleric from possible flankings. I may not be a pro for Grey, and know that Isaac is better than me, but I know that having a witch one place up has it's reasons.

I, myself, took Mith's advice of changing pyro for witch, so the trade would benefit me. :)

First, why don't you use wardless? :p

Never really wanted to experiment with it. In order to use it to its maximal potential, one would need to train with it pretty seriously, so I don't use it for the same reason I haven't learned to turtle well: I don't want to invest the time necessary to master it. Using wards is more my style. Plus, if you go wardless, you risk a wardless vs wardless game, which has got to be the most boring style possible. I don't question the overall superiority of the wardless set though.

As a sidenote, here are our PMs. We aren't having much of luck arranging a playing time.


Hey mate, we are to play for gs4. Im GMT +3, and my times are as follows:

Sunday: free all day.
Monday: 8-10PM (maybe)
Tuesday-Friday: 5-10PM.

It would be the best if we got our game in tommorow, as I will have somewhat restricted computer access.

I'm able to play in monday - Thursday at 4 pm to 6 pm Friday im unavailable... Saturday also
Sunday at 11 am to 1 pm
if you can't play at those times pm me back and i will try to do an effort to get our game...im GMT-5

Those times aren't suitable for me, way too late. Latest I could start a game would be 9-10 PM my time, that would be 1-2 PM at yours...

ok, i will try to be at those times but not really sure i cant guarante nothing.

I most likely wont be on, unless we agree to a more specific time. Im not going to sit for 5 hours hoping you'll come :). Are those times really ALL times you can play?

Match: Legend Z vs lemon
Winner: lemon
Comments: First time we played, isaac got dc'ed. We were unable to set it back up, so we replayed. I had pretty horrible opening luck-wise, but later I've got some of it back. It was a very long and tense game, one of the best i've played. Hope you had as much fun as I did, Isaac.

Screenie on request. I've recorded the game, but seeing how im on vacation right now it, so it wont be up for at least a week.

You pwn too much, I can't believe they seeded you 28th, I simply knew that was too bad for you.

Lemon and Legend Z, great job to you both this tournament. And thank you for being such good sports. As far as I am concerned, you two are model examples of how I wish everyone in tournaments would behave. You are both truly class acts in every interaction I have ever had with you, in forum or in game.

Well, it's almost over. Obviously:

lemon_ vs AFO

Lemon_ needs to beat AFO twice to win the tournament.

Acctually, lemon was unseeded, he won his pre-lim match to be seeded 28th.

And yes he pwns. Alot.

But i still got my money on AFO.

Lieutenant
07-21-2008, 04:46 PM
Well, I got my money that lemon makes it a 1-1 between them, if not 2-0. ;)

The Butcher
07-21-2008, 05:00 PM
1-1 Maybe.

2-0, no way.

And it has to be 2-0 for him to win.

He was seeded 28th, but because of the number of entries, he had to play a preliminary match.

Nice win, lemon. Good luck against AFO.

Not the players who lost prelims.

But i understand what your saying now, this was my first big tournament, so i was slightly confused.

No... everyone was originally seeded, from 1 to 104. Then seeds were filled into the brackets, and the remaining players played their polar opposites - highest vs lowest, descending.

Me and AFO should be playing now. If he does come, i'll post the results here.

Heya, we are to play for gs4. Im on vacation right now, so my playing time is somewhat limited. Basically, I should be able to come online at 5-10 PM my time (GMT +3).

Okay.. How about Wednesday 9:00 PM your time?

Sounds good. See you then.

07-23-2008, 01:15 PM
I lose game one. After his witch block I was basically screwed.

Lemon d/c at the end of game two. I think I had him.

My full scout, full knight, LW, and 2 hp knight with +47 blocking vs. his 8 bw, 28 knight with +14, and full assassin. I'll post the s/s if needed.. but positioning favored me as well. His assassin was isolated from his knight and bw and all three of my units were in range of the two.

Hoolwath
07-23-2008, 01:51 PM
So basically it is the final game now!

|AFO|
07-23-2008, 01:53 PM

So if AFO is declared the winner of game two, he wins the tourny?

|AFO|
07-23-2008, 01:59 PM
Yeah.. lemon said that I had it in the lobby. I didn't get the s/s but Mith was there. And lemon should get the videos up soon. I took a lot of chances in the first game after his witch block but made a few too many mistakes. Second game he got another witch block. Both games I would have been up a unit if not for the stupid blocks. Boooo witches.

Rubbish
07-23-2008, 02:00 PM
Looks like the girl units hate you...
I wonder why :)

lemon_
07-23-2008, 02:00 PM
Yeah. I was lost, unless I got stupidly lucky, and it would be quite painful to set back. Fun games.

edit: I thought going for my witch in the first game was very risky. It had +block, also if you hit your knight was very weak, so its quite likely that i'd have hunted it down. Well, whatever. Videos will be up when I get back from my vacations, i've got them in my DVD :).

|AFO|
07-23-2008, 02:01 PM
He didn't talk much. So most of the time it was just me talking to myself. You'll see in the videos. Was still fun though.

And no rubbish.. its because i'm mean to the ugly ones. Like yourself. =o =p

The Butcher
07-23-2008, 02:01 PM

Use google if you do not understand a meaning of a word, AFO.

Rubbish got it right.

And don't mind AFO, you are like the cool rubbish. Like an empty bottle of expensive chardonnay, broken gun, used condom(in a good way) ... I could easily go on. :cool:

Pun's actually a pretty good grey, and it's more about the player than the style. Anyone good at this game can become good at any style because they understand the concepts and strategies of this game. Detonation for instance, sure he was seeded like 25th, but you never hear about him being a pro grey and stuff. He's a great player and so he can execute with any style well. Experience can certainly play a factor, look at lemon and AFO. But look how far deto got.
