Completed Dawn of War tournament - itz DONE!

[Darth Roxor]

Also how the fuck you lost a IG\SoB matchup

SoB, if played correctly, is insanely super duper hard for IG.

 

[Darth Roxor]

also, you dow virgins really need to finally understand the critical importance of immediately capping all the strategic points around your base at the start, and immediately building listening posts on them

this is quite literally the very single most important thing you should do in the first 2 minutes

Spoiler

results inconclusive

third game to be played at a later point

 

[Jaedar]

Once RK47 has vod'ed the games, I especially recommend watching the second one. It was a bit derp but super intense action.

Ima fite you

OK, so what about fight at 20:00 (i guess thats 19:00 in your GMT? But then i just learned that easterners have a bizarre custom to say that they are gmt+1 in the summertime when their actual time is gmt+2 so idk, are you actually in gmt+1 or gmt+2)

I'm always confused by that shit. I live in Germany and this post was created 14:30 local time, if that helps. Anyways, 19:00 is a bit too soon,would one hour later work for you?

You are in GMT+2 then. Because it's summertime. So 20:00 is the same for you and me both.

This is GMT: https://time.is/no/GMT

If whatever time it is where you are is one hour more than the above, then your time is GMT+1. If it is two hours more, it is GMT+2.

 

[Snorkack]

Are you a web developer?

 

[Brotherman Bill]

No I'm just really good at reading clocks

 

[Snorkack]

So you're not a brit either

 

[hello friend]

Daylight savings i p. dumb and should be abolished as soon as possible.

Holy crap. Chaos' Eco never stood a chance after that crazy start. Literally death by a thousand cucks.
Good try by Roxor, but DE took 2/3 of the map and just rolled in the cash to cruise into T3 and unit spam.

 

[Zibniyat]

Any plans of doing another round of this competition, per chance?

 

[Reject_666_6]

Anybody wanna play tomorrow, at around the time this post was made or later?

The more I delay, the more critical capping tips Roxor gives my enemies!

 

[RK47]

Spoiler

That Diversity pick for Sweden did not work out.
Necron didn't use phase shift on wraith to decapture center critical point.
Tau used a very simple plan and somehow it just worked.
Not sure how I feel about this.
BUT BRING ON GAME 3!
With Jaedar having map pick for his Dark Eldars, the pressure is on once again for Poland.

 

[Snorkack]

would it be an option for Reject_666_6 to replace me in the match vs Brotherman Bill tonight? Some real-life stuff came up that requires my attention.

 

[Reject_666_6]

Ok, I'll wrangle your spot. For a price.

 

[Reject_666_6]

Well, unfortunately I forgot to save the replay of game 1. However, friend Jaedar was spectating only for that game, so he should have it.

Here's game 2 though: https://my.mixtape.moe/mmvdox.rec

(there's a moment where I'm attacking his base and afk'd for 15 secs or so - that's when I alt-tabbed to salvage the replay, but the game starts overwriting its temp file right away so gg)

Final result 2-0 for the 666_6.

 

[Darth Roxor]

the game starts overwriting its temp file right away so gg

this is why friend Jaedar should immediately rename the temp file and not try to check if it's the right one in-game then exit after 10 seconds or it'll get overwritten with 10 seconds of footage

 

[Stormcrowfleet]

I will be gone for work for two weeks. I will come back to avenge the Crimson Fists later.

 

[Snorkack]

Sorry for bailing out and shoutout to Reject_666_6 for taking my spot on short notice.

I'm able to play matches again from thursday evening onward, if anyone's interested.

Terrible game for Eldar. Bad opener.
Guardians are not good enough vs Necron Warriors.
Dark Reaper Aspect Stone was constructed, but no Dark Reaper until Soul Shrine is completed? Why?
It was too easy for the necrons.
Your match sucked so much energy out of me I overslept two bus stops on my way to work.

 

[Reject_666_6]

Bonus:

Actually it was 4 scarabs, the first one reached its target at around 1:45 but I wasn't expecting him capping northwest first, so I ended up idling there for a bit. At around 2:25, the scarabs are then sent to decap the point just above, which explains the mysterious 'cancelled' capture from a little later.

The plan was to play defensively under my upgraded LPs, but the warriors were already upgraded and grouped by the time the engages started, so I figured I'd push on the power spike and it worked.
