Next BWTFCL game was against ERA who we knew would be as hard an enemy as DW yesterday. Server was once again really good but the game began a little late due to the fact that the monitor of our engie went nuts and we had to find an 8th player.

First map was sd2 which, we thought, we were able to win even against ERA since we tend to win it against nearly everyone. But what we haven´t thought of was THAT kind of offense!! Man, those guys could bunnyhopp like hell and so our mainramp soldier was always swapping between ramp and flagroom, our sentry was nearly always down and therefore the lift too. Regarding to our dfens there was an enemy in our flagroom at almost any time.
Our off was as unlucky as our def because except one cap at the beginning of the map we were running against ERA def with nearly no success. They had two sentries and played with one off-ng and we had a hard time to get even one sentry down once in a while. We later switched to a two spy setup and had a few flagtouches more but we never got the flag out of their flagroom anymore. So ERA won this map at 10:60.

We were really depressed in the beginning of monkey_l but soon we saw that we could cap as fast as ERA could. Both teams now played with a 4/4 setup and so off-medics on both sides rushed the enemy base and capped all flags they could get their hands on 😉 After some time we saw that ERA was capping even faster than us and some time later they even had 30 points more than we had. But WareZ was saying we should cap faster now and so we did … because you NEVER disagree to what WareZ says!! 😉 We could make up for two flags but in the last seconds ERA could cap once more and so we lost with 120:140.

First halftime sucked bigtime but the 2nd map was one of the coolest games I´ve played in a long time 🙂 Thx to ERA for a fair and (at least partly) funny game.

This seasons 2nd BWTFCL match was against Digital Warfare. Since last seasons match was kinda devastating we thought to have little chances in this match. Fortunatly the server was very good so even our isdn-players had neither choke nor loss.

First map was well which we decided to play with five def. DW chose a similar tactic but bunnyhopping medics on both sides made sure that both flags were soon out the flagrooms. Both teams were able to score twice in the first minutes. After that DW-off began to cap more often than our off which was somehow disturbing. After ca. 15 mins of playing DW changed their def-setup from two maindoor soldiers to a soldier/engie combo that I think was easier to crack with the right conc-jumps. We could rush their flagroom more often and were able to drop the flag a couple of times. Unfortunatly most times it returned soon but on two occasions we could cap so the result of that halftime was 40:60 and a win for DW.

Next map was badlands and we hoped to have better chances againt DW since they never had a match in badlands before. Well, that assumption proved to be true because after fifteen minutes of playing we had our third flag out of their base and our enemy had nothing but a few touches 🙂
After some changes in DW def-setup we had a lot more problems to get to their flag while they could finally cap our flag. Since we didn´t want to risk our victory on this map Warez changed to def so work for our off was harder but DW couldn´t cap once more. So nothing notable happend in the rest of the match and the result of this map was 30:10.

We had a lot of fun during this match (especially our off) and we hope DW don´t take it too hard that they´ve lost one map and therefore didn´t win the match.
