Slackers 3 - 0 Firing Squad
 
 

DM3 - The Abandoned Base



249-61

Reports
FS got penta,rl,lg and SR got RA,Quad,Ring,Sng so start went 50%-50%, but blitz had a bad day and he got telefragged by paradoks, but no rl for us. Blitz was pretty confused about this situtation and it looks like his whole round wen't pretty bad of this telefrag spawn mode. Our game was really chaotic, goljat gave 2-3 free rl to enemy and they killed hib many times at YA with those rl. Slackers got 14quad + 3 penta and i think that is pretty much for us, usually we get something like 6-8 :) - by Slackers

DM2 - Claustrophobopolis



276-97

Reports
Razor got the high rl, quad and hib got the low rl, but razor quad run was pretty bad and he finished that to his death at 2xYA, he was pretty greedy to get some free frags, but gamer made a nice ambush to quad?low. FS weakness is absolutely starts on dm2,dm3, because you just can't waste starts against top clans, but with more warmup sure they would own us at start. - by Slackers

E1M2 - Castle of the Damned



214-175

Reports
Gamer got the first rl, but fs owned him by their shotgun skills. I think we played like Disorder: even FS controlled YA area, but still we made frags at ga/100h/rl area and game was all the time 10frags leading for us. Check that stats picture and they never leaded the game :). We made 25frags in the last three minutes. Good Game -Goljat - by Slackers

Thank you SR for being such good sports and breaking when I asked you to on dm3 despite having got two free rls from me from telefrags due to the wrong spawn mode being set, you could have ignored me and really exploited this mistake or even worse pretended that it was the correct spawn mode! Great game and best of luck in the finals.
   
Goljat - 80.221.42.91 2003-05-11 01:36:08
wrong spawn mode? It was ktpro spawn mode (same as kteam normal avoid spawn frags). Only difference between those two spawn modes are telefrags at start, because there are no telefrags at start with ktpro (first 2seconds).
   
blitz - 213.208.127.253 2003-05-11 01:46:29
Yeah... and you can also get telefragged on the spawn points during the entire game, which is not how 4v4 is played, unless it's a big playoff game and you get a few free rls out of it of course.
   
razor - 217.209.67.184 2003-05-11 01:50:51
blitz is alone with that opinion also !! and even if it WAS wrong.. i dont know and i dont care... its lame to restart a game because of that little reason.. i mean telefrags do exist in qw.. and its the same spawnmode that goes for both teams..... i doubt we would have won that dm3 anyway.. so bg blitz opinion.. ;)
   
TheChosenOne - 129.241.138.172 2003-05-11 01:51:12
Haha that spawnmode rocks! It's your own fault for wanting that 25 health at YA.
   
Goljat - 80.221.42.91 2003-05-11 01:54:09
well i think no telefrags are newbie settings, then you stay at dm3 rl spawn and none won't spawn there?
   
blitz - 213.208.127.253 2003-05-11 01:59:13
Yeah it's fucking stupid isn't it goljat that all these clans have been playing on this setting in every major 4v4 QW tournament for the last few years. What newbies. Maybe they should stop with this newbie powerups and dmm1 settings. 20 min games are so tiring why don't these newbies play for 5 minutes instead.
   
TheChosenOne - 129.241.138.172 2003-05-11 02:01:50
There should be like one spec commented, a spawnmode with spawnsafety, but if you stand there for a period of time your safety is gone.
   
SLB - 213.65.8.222 2003-05-11 02:33:57
ee.. just avoid them..
   
Gamer - 193.166.235.171 2003-05-11 02:41:41
you wouldn't have breaked either if the situation would have been other way around. It wasn't because we don't walk on spawnpoints.

I'm sorry FiringSquad didn't prepare better for this match. I didn't feel we were playing a team that had their best day. I admire FS for being a solid team sticking together. They got tremendous skills and I'm sure that other ppl thought they would put up more of a fight against us, seeing as how our previous pracs/offs turned out up to this semifinals. But nothing really seemed to work out for FS. Unlucky start for FS on DM3 where blitz walk over spawn point at ya with rl, and gets telefragged. There was a misunderstanding from Blitz pov, saying spawnsettings were wrong, then they clearly werent. Same time everything was working for us. Teamplay was great and the game just felt really good for us. Hard to be focused 110% and dedicated to win, when circumstances seem not to permit it. blixem not showing up untill last minute, no real warmup etc.. All i can say is that i really hope FS will be there for next NQR season, and will prepare better for important games. That is only way to go beyond the usual playoff spots

Blitz for president !

as para said, fs didn't seem to have a very good day at all. blitz was skitzy from the first minute of the first game on, and the lack of warmup (and prac?) contributed to a severe rape on dm2 and dm3. e1m2 could've gone either way at the half mark, but sr ended up winning a game that afaic was closer than what the frag difference reveals. all in all a good game, and I surely hope to see fs back in action (hopefully with the same lineup) as they've always been one of my favourite clans.
   
Hagge - 217.209.191.69 2003-05-11 11:35:07
just think it?s sad that fs could?ve give slackers more resistance but sr sure looks really strong right now.. can?t wait to see the other semi and final.. gg!

naah, p00r FS!;( i hoped they will be in the finals! bg ]SR[

Fs still have a chance at winning clanbase on tuesday.
   
razor - 217.209.67.184 2003-05-11 13:31:59
i dont know about the warmup etc.. but i mean this game isnt so different from our groupgame vs them... and we ve always had problems with sr
   
reppie - 217.122.224.185 2003-05-11 14:14:24
well i think it's both not-warmup and just the fact that we always suck vs SR in officials :) really a shame that blix was on holiday until last sunday, and due to some (i cant remember what:) circumstances we only got to prac ~6 rounds of prac in ~2weeks .. and no warmup at all before SR game. But like razor said, we always so bad vs SR, dunno why :) So i dont think we would have won with more warmup, maybe win 1 round, or at least make dm2/dm3 a bit closer .. but don't think we could have beaten SR :) its like some kind of magic chemistry which fucks up our skill and improves Slackers skill (or so it seems:)) anyway, gg slackers and goodluck in the finals :)

It's interesting that some clans have 'bogey' teams where they usually do better or worse than their overall and reputation suggests. For instance my clan Hyphen is a fair way behind the elites (as league table would suggest), so we should get beaten pretty comfortably by all of them. DS/FS usually goes by that ruling, but sometimes vs SR we can play "close" games (doesn't feel hopeless at any rate). CMF on the otherhand is totally impossible, nothing we try seems to work, their style of play counters it totally. Apart from a 2 frag win in clanbase on e1m2 I don't think we have ever won a map vs them. Around the time of sd1 quite a lot was said about tVs causing FF problems too, albeit in pracs.
   
blixem - 213.84.205.2 2003-05-12 14:27:10
blixem turning up a minute before the game so we had no warmup .. you mean we played 1 single game since i left for vacation , and that was 25 / 4 / 2003 .. thats a shame imo but its our own fault we weren't prepared and got owned
   
blixem - 213.84.205.2 2003-05-12 14:29:03
i hope we can prove we are still up there by giving cMF a good fight in clanbase (although the league is of no importance , the game itself is interesting)
   
booooooo - 207.236.123.210 2003-05-12 16:07:15
booooo sweden lost to a canadian hockey team without any good players (sakic, kariya, lemieux, st-louis...). we suck ; [
   
Canada - 62.216.9.23 2003-05-13 10:06:53
I think you can also safely say that Canada rules in Hocky :) That might also have been quite the reason for losing ;)
   
Link - 80.203.229.225 2003-05-13 11:50:07
I think you can safely say that the ref from USA gave Canada the victory, as he closed his eyes 4 times during overtime when Canadian players where outskilled by the Swedes and used unlegal measures to stop stronger and faster Swedes.

lol link - 207.236.123.210 2003-05-20 19:15:00
Ok link, but even if it's true, u have to admit that sweden team had almost all best swedish players... Canada had almost NONE Therefore, it's ashame =(
