Bw 1v1 Archer Tournament (eu)

Announcement

I am having great difficulty in organising the last 2 matches for the first knockout round.

...however I'm still persevering.

If this keeps up I will find a way round this so the tournament can keep progressing.

SO WE CAN FIND OUT THE BEST OF THE BEST

 

Knockout 1st round (results update)

The guard @Rainbows, fresh from his success in the group stage had an unlucky pairing to face the unstoppable archy force that is @Elowan.

-Which match?-


Did rainbows get some purchase? Or was it all power to elowan?..

Results & Commentary

Elowan is one of the big favourites tipped to win the tournament. He was the most successful group-stage player, and to say he has skills is an understatement. Someone had to fight him in the first knockout round. Rainbows fought well with not many slip-ups. He in fact won the first bout of the engagement. But from there on afterwards elowan reigned supreme. The final score was..

Spoiler

• 11:3 victory to Elowan

A very weldone to Rainbows for giving it his all against such a player. The 3 points he claimed are not to be sniffed at against such competition. But amazing work from elowan. So far he has crushed every opponent with complete ease.

-Elowan is through to the Quarter-finals

OMG this move!

I really want to watch the game @Elowan Vs @Verzuvius ! : o

By the way, I started to ask me questions by reporting the result of the match Verz vs Elowan.

Finally I think @Verzuvius is the best archer against Knights.
And @Elowan the best archer against archers.

But this is what we will see soon! ; D

Meanwhile, for the moment I want to see the match @xNaoki_x3 vs @Elowan.
These are two good friends who are making a competition :p
Especially Naoki who dreams beating Elowan! ;p Ahah

#Fall From Grace

Looks like nobody's perfect.



#Badass Boulder

This is just ridiculous.



#Heated Exchange

Ooooo I could taste the atmosphere in this one.

 

That's exactly what I'm doing just so that Elowan will look comparatively good!

 

I agree, I think a loser bracket would be a nice addition to the next tournament. Easier to organise than that beast of a group stage too.

 

Knockout: Quarter-finals (results update)

Well I decided to go ahead and arrange a quarters match. I want to announce the other ones before they happen in-case people are interested in watching them, but for this one I felt I needed to host as soon as possible to keep tournament momentum nice and fast.



There is one Knockout Starting round match left, but the player decided to leave the tournament. I am trying to find a way round this so @xNaoki_x3 actually has some competition to get through to the Quarter-finals, and not just sail through without fighting

Anyway, back to the Quarter-finals game hosted on thursday. It was one hell of an encounter..

-Which match?-


YES that's right, the two giants from group H were set to clash again. @NinjaCell vs @demosito. Ninja got the upper hand in the group stage battle - 5:4. A nail-biter. Consequently this meant ninja finished the group 1st, with demo following in 2nd.

Did demo get his revenge? Or did Ninja take a second victory?

Results & Commentary

Spoiler

Ninja started poorly, losing the first 4 rounds. Demosito I've found to be very consistent in matches, usually playing at a high standard throughout - a very punishing player to take on. Eventually though the comeback began..

There were some really sweet pieces of skill demonstrated in parts of this battle, and I would say Ninja possibly outplayed demo by a small margin for the rest of the match. It was close. But did he manage to make up the 4 points from the start, or was it just too much to catch up by?

The final score was..

Spoiler

• 11:8 to demosito

The last segment was tense. NinjaCell even saved a match point chance. The last round was gripping. It was the island level, Ninja took a hit, meaning any one of the arrows coming from the left could be his last. After a lot of dodging and firing from both, this was the final hit for the hooded one..





Weldone for getting this far NinjaCell. You were a very strong competitor and showcased your skills brilliantly in this contest.

-But a big congratulations to demosito (aka pupute). You have made it to the FINAL 4

• As we can see demosito is the first to reach the SEMI-FINALS.

~Tournament ticklers from this match will be on their way!

 

Great match, the comeback was almost real.

 

That was an interesting match, as was pretty worried to lose at the end, but I had my revenge!

I hope to see you again on tdm ninja!

When I see me on this tournament I always think about Aurora who was main archer and arrived in Semi-Finals in the knight tournament... but who is not in this one...

 

Match ON TODAY

Sometime today it's likely we will have the @Verzuvius vs @Blue_Tiger Quarter-final.

Both know each others game well and are often casual rivals in public servers.

Should be VERY interesting



Here are the details if you wanna watch the match..

Who's gonna make it through to the final 4?

 

Match cancelled - for today



We just didn't manage to find the right time today for the verz vs malt matchup.

---------Stay tuned though---------

 

As we can see there's a storm between these two. All the better for the match

But for now I'd like to treat you to some..
