Today was a big day for us, all the hype, flaming and anticipation for a fight was about to come together for the first time in a long time. We peaked at 31 for the fight which was a big achievement for us and I'd like to say personally how proud I am of my clan for their performance. Hostility massed just a little before us and practised a few tactics in clan wars whilst we got pumped up on TeamSpeak. Both clans really wanted this win a lot so losing wasn't a word for us tonight! The biggest disappointment for us tonight was the amount of members we had to sit, we had to sit around 8 each round to compensate for their numbers to make it a fair fight!
Video of the day by Trile:
Round 1, I'll be honest, we got destroyed, no doubt about it. Our ranks are always into trying different stuff and for our first round that's what we did. We decided that we would defend behind the jail to see how it went. Everything was going well until they rushed in, we just switched off and they slashed through us. As our members were getting sent to the jail, they were greeted by NME who thought they would come to the prep and spend the duration flaming us, more fool them. It just made us more determined to win and to show Hostility we mean business.
Round 2 now, our attacking round. Once again we had to sit around 8 members to even the teams and this did take a bit of time as I felt guilty sitting people. Once the teams were even we advanced through the dark gloomy trees to find Hostility's defending patch! Taking things nice and steady we DD'd just a little North of them, quite close actually just to be cheeky. We arranged our piles, potted up and rushed into them like a herd of elephants! Red bars, red squiggles and prayers were flying all over the place as the fight begun and we instantly dragged to the lava to kill any of the stragglers within us. The fight lasted a while and eventually we started to take the upper hand slaying them down 1 by 1 before finishing our opponents and evening the scores to 1-1.
This was now where our confidence improved massively, the clan moral grew and everyone was really pumped for the PKRI. It was a tense moment waiting for the barrier to drop in the centre and we slowly edged out from the South until we saw white dots on the horizon. Hostility was greeted by a big, fat wall of purple lines and we instantly killed their PKRI leader. After dropping 1 or 2 of them we strategically defended the centre bone with our blue sharpy blades dropping any of our opponents who dared to come with in us. Once we got the upper hand it stayed that way and we eventually finished off Hostility, giving us the win of 2-1.
This was the boost that our clan needed to help us progress more and help us get back out their to give everyone something to think about when fighting us. We're ready for this Saturday's trip, are you? It's going to be messy!
Thanks for reading.
All the best, Luke
