    The bracket finally has all top 10 above 1000, I thought it wasn't going to happen

    My bracket isn't as horrible as the last few events have been. Top three are all 1000+, but 4-10 are all mid 900s.

    yeah...just landed in 5th for now with 1043.
  • Tip of the cap to Dark Silence for taking 1st place in the bracket. Wasnt paying attention until you got within 20, thought i had you when i caught you unshielded, but I Fat fingered a 5 match into a 3 match that left Hulk with 300 hp and got blitzed by 7 anger tiles. Also got gashed for two losses during the fight. Game over. Well played sir.

    Mines similar, saw someone below me unshield a few minutes ago, I assume to push for top 5. Knew that wouldn't end well. Now they're nowhere to be seen. Being unshielded is scary!

    Oh, and my apologies to knock3r. Had you in a node with the highest points. You were in 5th, me in 7th. Did the match, won, then I was in 5th and you in 10th with 5 minutes left.
  • Hmmm... had one person hit me this whole event. Compared to the 20 that hit me in the last 30 minutes of the last one. Guess Loki isn't *quite* as popular as Patch.

    daveomite - I decided to unshield for the 1100 reward so I figured if I found you afterwards I'd retreat since I was comfortably first and everyone close was shielded. Didn't find you, but I saw Twysta was close to 1100 so I retreated to him instead icon_razz.gif

    Twysta - were you shooting for 1100? Hope the extra points help for something icon_e_smile.gif
  • Pushed to 900 with about 13 hrs left. Did not shield on purpose. After morning coffee, saw that I dropped to 700. Made a push back to 900 in the dying minutes.
    Finished at 26th I think. No shield tourney was kinda fun heh.

    Saw bugpop at 1st, nice one icon_e_smile.gif

    I have pioneered the new skill of 'Shield Dropping'. You pay 75HP to drop 20 or so pts, consecutively. The idea is to intimidate other players with your willingness to blatantly blow through HP to less-than-no-effect.

    Be suitably afraid.

    Please qt, I've been shield dropping for hours son!
    Alright, about to start my little hop. Remember I love you all! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I'll post when re shielded. These hops are terrifying, I don't know how you people do it on the regular

    Haha, that didn't even almost work. Won a match for 20, got attacked for -30. Damn, down. Hulk cascade of death whole team dead. Down more. Health pack regroup. Cascade of death rd 2, Fat man boogaloo. Lt does his three piece song and dance. Team dies, I grumble and re shield. Good times

    That being said, no one passed me since that happened and I stayed top 5. So clearly it works

    Yes...congrats to everyone... great matchups.
  • Twysta and qtquasar GET OUT OF MY QUEUEUE

    Now that I've got a good cMags I'm not terrified of your teams anymore but you are cool dudes and i didn't want to hamper your push

    but sometimes this game makes you so tempting when I only see you two and two other guys worth way less points

    GEEZ

    Yeah, that Nemek. So greedy. He's all like "LETS BE BRACKET BUDDIES" and steals all milkshake.
    All the guys go to his yard.

    Was trying to bump up some points for my season bracket as well, got iCreateCarnage and Excel are leading it, sockid, grazzt are in it too.
    Don't think I'll win it but hoping to slip into top 5.

    well, since theoretically you don't see shielded people who aren't queued up and I kept seeing you again and again and you didnt' have 1100, i just assumed you weren't shielded

    No need. You've been really active here on the forums and seem like a cool guy, so I figured if I was in a position to help out I would. Anyway - great tourney everyone and best of luck in God of Lies!
  • #1 was 1540 (reckless)

    #10 this time was 924.

    not that bad. got to 1100 without much effort and single 3h shield. would have pushed higher... but pointless.
