We were heavy on tonight, and our first landing was a finals match in Cyprus against Xtreme United Gamers, who had already fought through the semi-finals to get to us. As the match started, there was much gnashing of teeth that we were heavily outgunned. Wilso led us in to battle with reassurances, and as it turns out, the match ended with 2 of us in their base, and 2 of them in our base… and both of them were damaged, they just got there a little ahead of us. NEVER call the odds, good game-play will win out, and we ARE a competitive team!
Our second landing was also a finals match, this time in Corsica against the Vietnam People’s Army. We ran the numbers on their team, and we liked the odds. Perhaps we were a bit overconfident, and even though we started up one vehicle, and seemed to outgun them, their superior play against our unfamiliarity with the map brought the match to them.
Lesson learned? The match we thought we would get stomped in we did VERY well. The match we thought we would win easily, we got our asses handed to us in a bread basket. Always keep focused, and take nothing for granted either way.
