Stroop's Draknor - Level 1 challenge

PostPosted: Sun May 17, 2009 1:53 pm

After discovering that I quite like the Draknor - Level 1 map for 1v1 games, I decided to challenge forum-going CC. :)

The challenge is simple. We play a best-of-7 set of games and see who comes out on top. If you are a premium user, we can play all games at once or one or two at a time. If you are not a premium user, we can play all games as soon as you have slots open to play them with.

All games will be played using the following settings: Sequential, Escalating, Chained, Sunny.

For this challenge not to hurt my rank even if I win, your rank needs to be Captain or higher.

I will play 2 challenges at once.

If you wish to accept my challenge, you can do so in this thread. I will create the games and send the game numbers and password(s) to you via PM.

In Draknor Level 1 the drop can really screw you in a 1 vs 1... Simple as that. You would be much better off in a doubles series. If you decide to open one up, I will be first in line. :) good luck.

I'm aware, that's why it's best of 7, and not just 1 game. I don't expect to win or lose any of the challenges 7-0, because of the drop and dice, but when you're better than the other player 4-3, 5-2 and even 6-1 are very possible.

A doubles challenge might come in the near future, I will be trying out some doubles with a clan mate soon.

You're a few points short, but I'll take it.

Games are on their way.

Well... interest seems to be a bit low...

I'll accept rematches, but only if you get your points up. As it stands now, I will lose points even if I win 5-2 :|

I imagine this will end up 5-2 to you.

Well played... horrible map in 1vs1 due to all the neutral armies and one way borders.

Maybe I was overly pessimistic here, looks like a 4-3 victory to Stroop :P

Doubles game over... next time you make them do it no spoils. It might help your cause. :) 0-3 not a bad first try. :) gg
