Spoiler: Malt vs. Elo Semifinal spoiler

@Blue_Tiger was a comrade. He fought bravely, he fought cleverly and he fought skillfully. His cause was noble and his mask was slick but at the end, all of that wasn't enough. At the end, the capitalist swines won. At the end, we lost one of the greatest comrades of all times. Rest in peace.

 

The feels man, the feels

 

2nd Semi-final (results)

Two cats met. Only one could proceed.

VS
@Elowan---------@Blue_Tiger

Recap:


Superman @Verzuvius beat Blue_Tiger in the Quarter-finals, however he had to drop out. This gave blue_tiger another chance to get his claws out. But was it much of a chance against the tournament favourite Elowan? Was he destroyed? Or did he have something up his sleeve?

Results & Commentary

Spoiler

5 new maps were adding for match. And this was one of the latest matches we have ever had - a 9pm GMT start. Plenty of people joined to watch the spectacle. Let's get on with the commentary..

GAME 1

Spoiler

The first game started off with Elowan jumping into a pond with sharks, not a great start for the unstoppable one - 1:0 malt.

Jumped the shark


Elowan quickly and skilfully won the next 3 to make it 3:1. Yep, don't worry about before, the bad-ass player definitely turned up.

Malt came back and took elo on very well in the 5th bout holding a defensive position on the very flat 1v1 map. 3:2 elowan.

Defensive position


What happened next can only be described as 'pwnage season' for elowan. No he didn't win the next 3, 4 or 5 points in a row, he won 7... Yes 7... against Blue_Tiger. Holy crap. Making the score now 10:2. Whitewash.

Pwnage Season


This was game point now. To win this malt would have to beat elowan 9 times in a row! Bearing in mind I'm not sure anyone has even killed elowan over 2 or 3 times in a row during the whole competition. A malt victory would now sound almost impossible.

So I guess you want to know if Elowan finished him in the next one, or the one after that?

Final score:

Spoiler

• 11:5 to Elowan

Maltager had a bash at a comeback! Congrats to him for getting 3 points before elo finished the game. In fact we ended on somewhat of a heart-breaking point which pitted poor malt in a situation he had no real hope of winning. This killed the comeback stone cold dead. It was brutal to watch.

Fish in a Barrel
{An absurd moment - elowan manages to glitch through the one ways before malt to win the last point..}

GAME 2 + Sudden Death?

Spoiler

Maltager didn't play so well in the first game - by that I mean, not his best, which he would probably need to bring down Elowan.

You are not going to believe this but the EXACT same thing happened in the first round of this game as in the first of the last game. Elowan fell straight away into the shark pond giving away the first point to malt - 1:0. The words "wow", "same thing" were uttered by blue_tiger in shock.

The Tiger unleashed


Boy oh boy was the audience now in for a treat. Malt found another gear and it started off with both players toing and froing: 2:0 malt, 3:2 elowan, 4:3 malt, 5:4 elowan, 6:5 malt. Great for the audience, probably horrible for the contestants

Malt takes it to 6:5


So, did one player manage to break away from the other to end this tense situation?

No.

After the next 3 points it becomes 7:7. WILL ONE OF YOU GUYS PLEASE BREAK-AWAY THE TENSION IS KILLING US!

The point following this was absolutely beautiful, if you mind me saying so. The tactics and manoeuvres were incredible. At certain instances you could almost feel the desperate and vigorous thought burning out of them about what to do next. One of the best rounds I've ever seen from this tournament.

Game 2, 15th round - Tactical tornadoes


Malt just about managed to kill elowan after 40 seconds of total round time . It could have easily gone the other way, 8:7 malt.

We shall speed on a little now to the score of 10:9 malt. Yes that's right, THIS CLOSE. Is was as if malt is actually trying to be crazy enough to beat elowan. Haha. Awesome.

This Tiger's Determined
-{Blue_Tiger winning the island map in the 19th round making the score 10:9}

Now I'm no mathematician, but there are a maximum of 2 rounds left. Someone is going to have to win this. and both players are like hungry jackals fighting over the last morsel of meat.

-Malt can either win point 20, or 21, elowan has to win both.

Round 20


It lasted over a minute, and they just about burned the whole the map down. Maltager being at a game point, wisely used a bit of self-control and didn't over-excitedly lunge in; he played it smart, often retreating in this round, trying to sneak a kill safely. Though at the end he darted upward to launching some quick shots, but was side-stepped and found an arrow falling to his face to finish of his last half-heart. Nice try mr Tiger, but now the score's 10:10.

...

Now we are definitely in the final round. If malt loses this then he's out. If elowan loses it, the whole match becomes 1:1 and we go to sudden-death. Needless to say, this was quite an important round.

It was on one of the original tournament levels and a great map to finish on.

So was malt the first man to beat elowan in a game? Or did elowan deny him and thus take the match?

At the end the score was:

Spoiler

• 11:10 to elowan

NEARLY MALT. But unfortunately you were beaten 2:0.

...

Blue_Tiger's Final Moment - RIDICULOUSLY CLOSE SHOTS



This was a fitting end to such a close game - an unbelievably close moment. If you look carefully you can see elowan's shot is on course, but maltager's is off by about 1 block.

Thanks for playing Blue_Tiger. You've made Elowan work much harder than anyone else, and I applaud you.

-A massive congratulations to Elowan! You have passed the tiger-trial and made it to the TOURNAMENT FINAL

Dask's Favourite Round

"It's not your favourite, it's mine!"



From the @Elowan vs @Blue_Tiger match-up

Game 2, round 15


It wasn't the most action packed round of them all, but it had a lot of intelligence on display, with both players at this point showing a healthy caution for each other's skills.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
~Tournament ticklers for the match will be coming soon!

 

If the enemy has a bomb arrow, you need to hide until they shoot it. There is no surviving it playing any other way unless your opponent can't aim (Elowan).

yes please, I spoke with demosito yesterday, and he needs to train before playing against Elowan. This is since the end of the World Cup Kag he did not play.
leave him some time before plays against Elowan or Verz

 

Ahahaha @Verzuvius comes back in tourney like he's all secret boss Akuma in Street Fighter and shit. I love it

That second matchpoint kill... Nyan confirmed tru ninja

 

The tournament will finish by the end of Sunday

After many, many tries to set-up the final. If @Elowan still does not play I will declare Demosito the winner.

I don't want to have to end it this way, but I want to finish the tournament and I have waited months for people to play, and it is getting rediculous now that this thread is several months old.

I've done all I reasonably can. At the end of the day if people don't arrange stuff with me after 15 tries then I cannot host a match.

I have realised how hard it is to host something like this in a computer game community, and I will not be trying as hard to host a contest here again.



Damn.
