  • Blue IW + missing GSBW purple. Now only not to get reckless442 in my bracket... I don't feel like grinding to 1400pts icon_e_biggrin.gif .

    GSBW instead of LT icon_e_sad.gif
    And blue Baglady.
    With a Europe-friendly end time _again_ - seems like the blue one always is featured in tourneys with that time zone.
    Props to the devs for rotating the alliance cover - but I _really_ want some LTs icon_e_sad.gif

    it's "her"? wow.

    and so I joined. I have infamous tc5434 in my bracket, who attacked quite a lot of us quite a lot of times in Hotshot.

    For once alliance reward is the least desirable cover. Last time alliance cover was purple GSBW. But then again poor GSBW all but got obsoleted by lazyThor.

    I didn't intend to go for 1400 (or 1300) in Hotshot either. We were very uncertain about the alliance score in this event, being down one player, and not knowing for sure if a couple of others would be able to play. I also was going to be gone for the last two hours of the event, and expected 5DVs to throw everything they could at us at the end since this was the last 500 HP event. So I figured I would try to contribute as many points as I could before I had to leave, just in case we needed the cushion. I was shocked when I came home and saw that 15 of our members had scored over 1100.

    I don't see any reason why that will happen this event.

    Oh gawd, I so very much hope he attacks again a gazillion times.
    This time he'll see that we're _not_ human piñatas and that a maxed Punisher can and will hurt a lot when retaliating icon_e_biggrin.gif

    He cost me a shield to stop the retaliations, but otherwise almost single-handedly took me from the 950 to 1100 in Hotshot. (I think that was the range; jimbojim did the same thing, but I believe it was from 1100 to 1200.) I'm perfectly happy to give up 9 and 16 points when I'm getting 45 and 40 on my retaliations. Both of them do seem to have the ability to queue people up and defeat them super-fast, so the shield at the end is necessary. jimbojim hit my twice before I finished my first retaliation, matched several retaliations, and then hit me twice more after I had shielded (only one of which could have been a retaliation). By my count, he must have hit me 7 or 8 times to my 5 attacks on him. And that may be what he and tc5434 count on -- that they will beat you twice was fast, so the higher losses get offset by the speed at which they retaliate.

  • There's a guy shielded at 373 with a lvl 50 roster in my bracket too. Dunno man.
  • GSBW rewards... I'm ok with that.
    Bold prediction: next event will be a rerun of Hollowpoint Kiss

    Although that was sort of fun, I hope not.

    Why not a rerun of Widowmaker? Haven't had one of those since last year. oBW has been a reward recently as well.

    Tc5434 was in my main but they came second as we needed the points as an alliance. I slept through the end so don't know what anyone scored in the end I think repronaz was in my bracket as well with mischiefmaker
  • I need her green and purple, but not red (5/3/5 seems to be the consensus and I'm 2/3/1). Noon endtime is extremely unfriendly, though. They've taken the 3* I need covers for the second most - only HT has fewer covers for me - and made it as hard as possible to get any more. Isn't this the exact same cover reward structure as last time she was the prize?

    I already mentioned that last time her purple was the alliance reward. Green was an individual top 10 reward IIRC.
  • I had red and purple mixed up this time. This is different then.

    I expect No Man's Land. I want No Man's Land.

    Psy + OBW + MStorm. Or IW, finally? icon_razz.gif
  • Another iso grind PVP for me.

    First place still brings home 5500 iso after cover sales, not a bad haul for a two day event.

    Who do I need to bribe at D3 to get some Lazy Thors... I know if I just buy them, they'll immediately do a back to back event handing him out as the prize.

    I couldn't wait, I've been spending all my HP on buying his covers. I've bought 3 green and 1 yellow thus far.
