Week 4 review
After a very busy week, we finally have the review from week 4. Unfortunately there is no video as we have no intromovie yet. Can’t have one without! So we will merge week 4 and 5 in the video along with a nice intro (got a cool one planned!)
A bit late but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless!
Asgard vs GRAND
Q3CTF2. Here we go, both clans keeping up the pressure on the enemy base really well and some great mid defence and you know that it aint gonna be easy to cap. Both clans were doing some really heavy defence. We all know that this is a defensive map but in the 8th min, masterJP got the flag from GRAND and managed to get the flag through mid with some really lucky moves, down with 11hp and still manages to cap, 1-0 for Asgard. In the 11th minute evilernie went for the flag and managed to kill all the defs and was now going for the equaliser. With low hp he meets robbeh and gives the flag to him who rocketjumps over mid but blows himself up. His team is there to help him and they finally got a tie. This was the last cap of the game, the rest of the game was pretty deffensive but some good frags!
CTCTF3. Second and last map of this match is known as GRAND’s favourite. The powerup control is almost the same, GRAND gets it, Asgard gets it and so on, both clans is keeping a good pressure on the enemy base and GRAND really had some great chances but Asgard was there to stop it! After 5min of gameplay you can see that GRAND got the most flagtouches and got some flags to mid but Asgard is doing a really good job in the defence. However in the 8th minute GRAND gets the flag past mid but then mano from Asgard sneaks in to GRAND’s base, steals the flag, gets it over the mid and manages to get a crosscap for about 2 minutes. Dragje from GRAND gets into the enemy base, shoots mano down and returns the flag, 1-0 GRAND. Asgard is now trying to get a cap to tie this up but without success. Dragje from GRAND gets the flag and with the help of his whole team on mid he could just run past and cap, 2-0 for GRAND and they’ve won the game, GG!
K2 vs DP
Q3CTF2. Game is on and we know we’re gonna have some great action right here. DP starts with attacking a lot and K2 is doing a great job in the defence. This will be going on for about 4 minutes. Then erazor gets the flag with some nice rocketjumps and runs away far from the enemy. He rocketjumps over mid and it’s 1-0 for K2. Naity from DP is tired of this and wants to get a cap, he grabs flag and rocketjumps out. He tries to rocketjump over the mid with very low health and dies but with Makie on rebound they get a 2nd chance. He also tries to rocketjump over mid and fails. K2 is locking down mid and base while DP is attacking like crazy. In the 14th minute Naity rocketjumps out with the flag and dies. Dem0n is there to pick it up and gets it over mid where he gets railed. Then headz is there for support and manages to get the flag into base and cap. 1-1 and both teams are hungry for more! Naity once more gets the flag and tries to go high right where he meets a rain of grenades. However, ynam is there fortunately. He picks up the flag, with some nice rockets he kills 3 players from K2 and crosses the mid to cap. DP wins the first map with 2-1.
CTCTF3. The chickenmap is here and K2 wants to win this! In the 2nd minute Naity goes attack and gets the flag. He’s running like a wild animal and there is no way he’s letting K2 take him down. He runs past mid and with some luck he gets behind a corner with only 9 health. After that he can easily cap, 1-0 for DP. Both clans are doing really well keeping their flag in base but in the 15th minute, Naity goes attack and gets flag, with some tactical moves he can run with flag over the mid and caps. It’s now 2-0 for DP and K2 needs a miracle to survive this! erazor from K2 knows that they need to attack more and he does just that. He gets the flag and runs almost past the mid where he gets railed. Fortunately for them, bandit is there to pick the flag up and get it back to base but this wasn’t enough to equalise. DP wins the game by 2-1. GG although there was some whine!
dr vs LKFF
Q3CTF2. GET READY TO RUUUUUUUUUUUMBLE! LKFF starts with a really aggressive attitude and after 40 sec, d1p goes into the enemybase and manages to get the flag past mid with some nice rocketjumps. It is now 1-0 for LKFF. LKFF keeps the pressure on the enemy base and almost gets 2 caps but dr is strong on mid and manages to bring them back. With some really great action both teams almost get the flags home but there is always 1 or 2 enemys hanging around in base so they can’t cap but d1p is sneaking around in enemy base, getting some health. He goes out to mid and there he does another great rocketjump. He enters his own base which happens to be overrun by the enemy. He dies but visser easily picks it up and caps with the help from some teammates. 2-0 for LKFF. Reapsen takes the flag and rocketjumps over mid and kills a lot of enemys, going into the base to cap. He’s very close to the flag but eXodus is there to stop him. A rail in the back and he can return. Unlucky for dr and lucky for LKFF! d1p once again gets the flag and does almost the exact same move as he did for the last 1 cap. He could easily score, making it 3-0 for LKFF now. In the 12th minute xpac from dr gets the flag out to mid but dies, the flag is just laying there and dr tries to get it back so they can go home and get their first cap, but no, d1p who does the EXACT same move again with his rocketjump over mid (someone learn him some new moves =D) gets it past mid while dr gets a hold of the enemy flag. We have a crosscap that only lasts for ~40 sec. Soulreaver from LKFF manages to return the flag and d1p caps 4-0 for LKFF. reapsen from dr gets the flag in the 18th minute and with a really nice teamrail in the back he can fly over the whole mid and in to base and cap, game ends 4-1 in favour of LKFF, gg.
CTCTF3. Second map starts and both teams are going attack right from the start. There are some really nice quad frags even though it didn’t help anyone to cap. *tick tack*
15 Minutes later we can see the first cap, eXodus is grabbing the flag and runs for it but on mid he gets shot down. Luckily his teammates are there. Visser takes over and rocketjump away. We have our first cap, 1-0 LKFF. Two minutes later soulreaver gets the enemy flag out of base but dies, reeseend is there to pick it up and with a really nice clean rocketjump over mid he could run into base. LKFF gets their 2nd cap, 2-0. Then eXodus gets the flag, tricks the enemy def and away he goes with the flag! Rocketjump at mid with full speed. He grabs the yellow armor to secure the cap, 3-0 LKFF. This was a lost battle for dr and they probably knew that but eXodus wanted to finish the game with a cap and he did, he grabbed the flag and just kept running and with 10 seconds left he capped the last one for LKFF, gg & wp!
RK vs SH
CTCTF3. RK completely and utterly annihilated SH on this map. HANZ opened the scoring in the first minute and the rest of the game pretty much followed in the same fashion. I think in the end everyone in the RK team managed to take the enemy’s flag.
HANZ really was on top form here, capping in the first minute…a minute or two later he made the game 2-0 with some nice lightning gun kills at mid.
It wasn’t until the 9th minute that more caps ensued and when the time came, the caps came flooding in. Azghard got his first cap of the game to make the score 3-0 with a nice run.
Whiz, Hanz, Azghard and murz then added to the tally and SH had given up, being totally out played here. Azghard killed the game in style with a nice Rocket Jump Switch at mid, leaving the assailing 3 SH players at mid completely helpless as they watched him go on to make the 10th and final capture of the game.
Q3CTF2. Not quite as much of a battering as SH got on CTCTF3 but then this map is a lot more closed off with lots of corner camping etc.
I think RK adopted a pretty strong defence for this team because most of the time whiz was defending but he did go to the enemy’s base a few times along with the more out and out attackers of HANZ and azghard on this map.
The scoring got underway relatively quickly. Azghard stole the enemy’s flag and made it to mid, whiz picked the flag up and made it 1-0 in the first minute. The game continued in a mid battle fest until the 14th minute when Hanz got the enemy’s flag along with their medikit and was coming out left side mid, where there were 2 or 3 SH players trying to stop him from progressing. He made it however, using the medi kit and taking out the SH players but only got as far as mid, where once again whiz was there to pick up the pieces and make it 2-0.
Whiz then took the enemy’s flag and gave up his defending position for a minute. He made a decent clean run from the enemy base to finish the game off at 3-0.
A few minutes later a cross steal situation occurred, azghard went for his home medi kit when the RK flag was returned, took mega as well to be on the safe side and made the score 4-0.
Whizz gave up his defending stature once again near the end of the game, stealing SH’s flag and getting as far as mid before murz grabbed it and slammed it home to finish the game with a resounding 5-0 victory.
KoW vs magic
CTCTF3. This game was kind of strange, KoW were 2-0 up very early on thanks to some capping by fo_tbh, and magic somehow ended up scoring 6 resulting in the 6-3 scoreline at the end.
KoW probably had a psychological disadvantage by getting 2-0 ahead so early on, expecting to coast through the game and not really developing sufficient tactical awareness to close the game off.
CTF2. This map was quite close as would have probably been well predicted by many considering last season’s scoreline when the two teams met here previously. In that instance KoW won the game 2-0.
Again, KoW managed to keep a clean sheet here and got the 1 cap to win the map.
Cod vs BIG
Q3CTF2. The Coddies played very focussed from the start on. That’s how they came in the lead after a cap by Freaky in the 2nd minute. In the 4th minute a crosscap took place: Krz and Hip with the flag. It took 2.5 minutes before Krz was able to score the 2-0 for CoD. Hip was hiding in the water when he got killed by 3 Codlers, maybe not such a good idea after all! Again krz took a flag in the 11th minute and scored the last cap of the map. BiG had a good chance of getting one as well as Hip reached his own base with the flag. However, Krz shot him down above their flag and Chat returned. CoD won with 3-0.
CTCTF3. BiG completely locked the middle and their own base down, giving CoD not a single chance. While CoD took a lot of risks to get a point, BiG’s attackers managed to infiltrate a weak CoD base. Tejjo scored the 1-0 for BiG with 1 hp left. Till the 12th minute, a lot of railing happened in the middle. Both sides camped for the powerups and nothing happened. Then a crosscap arrived and Freak had the chance to score for CoD, however he was taken down and Nut managed to grab the flag after Slickan was killed. 2-0 for BiG. In another crosscap, they even increased that to 3-0 although Chat had blocked and killed their carrier and stood on the flag that did not want to return. Slickan took over, cleared the area and scored. Any order and discipline now faded away on the CoD side, allowing BiG to score twice more through Rai and Hip. Where CoD had the better play on CTF2, BiG clearly dominated the arena here.
tooFast vs DX
HAMMERTIME! Smove from 2fast probably made the record cap on ctf2 as he scored after only 13 seconds in the game! A blast that DX wasn’t able to recover from anymore. Their attempts on an equaliser were pretty harmless. They mostly had to secure their own base agaisnt the furious attempts from 2F. They won with 7 to 1, nearly everyone in their team scored once at least. On the DX side, Fragty scored the honour cap.
The battle cooled down a little on the desert map. In the 6th minute, DX holyshitted KZN as he tasted Fragty’s rail. Shortly after, Smv reached his base as well, though again DX managed to return. However, this could not last long without a cap. Halfway the game NH finally scored the first. The following caps came immediately after, making it a 4-0 in less tha five minutes time. DX missed too much organisation to create a chance, although their only cap went to Fragty once again.
dwc vs DS
Fulgore scored the 0-1 after 5 minutes. Both teams started to camp mid and chase after that, although DS had more pressure on the dwc base and the game was a lot closer towards a 2-0 than an equaliser. However, in the 15th minute, Pons got the flag and scored the 1-1 for dwc. It has to be said that a player from ds was suffering from a 999 and received a timeout for which Pons started to flame the admin. Pretty lame from Pons, you’d expect to see some more sportive behaviour these days… Anyway, immediately after Style made the 2-1 for dwc and DS had to go for the equaliser now. A crosscap situation took place: awyp and apex had the flag but ds managed to take out awyp and scored the equaliser they had deserved at least.
The chickenmap was next. The start was fairly balanced, although with perhaps some small advantages towards dark saga’s side. As time passed by, dwc’s base became more and more under pressure. In the middle of hte 8th minute, Fulgore brought his team into the lead. This announced the beginning of a strong phase in the game for DS. Apex scored next. Halfway the game, Fulgore got a holy shit which Apex finished again. Two minutes later, it was once more Apex who scored his 3rd cap. 0-4 for ds and dwc was completely overrun. They had some chances after the 16th minute as a long of small crosscaps took place, but DS had the better luck here as well. cT made the final two and this way DS won pretty convincingly.
dwc vs DX
The game started on w7. Both teams played carefully and mainly focused on the defence. The middle was for chasing and both sides got their own PU. C3nobit from dwc had the chance on a 1-0 lead but was fragged in front of his own flag. A critical kill for DX as this might have completely turned the game. 14 Minutes were played now and it looked like the map was heading towards an equaliser. However, the next two minutes DX played as if they all had some quad damage. They created two chances and both were a hit. The first cap was done by RectuMan, the second by DjHell who took the flag from Joa. With less than 5 minutes on the clock, it’s pretty hard to come back on a map like w7. dwc got a little bit frustrated as DX denied them even the smallest chances.
Next was q3wcp1. dwc has shown before that they’re good on this map. Still a bit grumpy over last map, dwc went in for the kill and took the lead in the 3rd minute by C3nobit. dwc continued to push forward and created a lot of chances to which DX could only react. Some good teamplay on the dwc side lef to the 2-0 as Pons brought the flag home where DyG took over. C3nobit further increased that to a 3-0 after a crosscap situation in which Sharky from DX had taken the flag but got killed before he left the enemy base. This way, both teams won a map and are probably happy with that.
!nf vs M
On ctf2 turned into an intensive fight as both teams were looking for a cap. In the 5th minute Slax from !nf and Lowje from M had the first chances but ended nowhere. A diving expedition by UITiMaTiA was interrupted in the 10th minute. 4 Miutes later, Inumeg managed to get the flag to the middle and although M was able to frag him, they could not return it. Slax picked it up and brought his team in the lead a couple of seconds later. M responded by increasing their attacking. Some good teamplay rewarded them to get the equaliser shortly before the end, in the same way that !nfinity made their cap. MadMarc brought the flag to mid, UITiMaTiA took over and scored a well deserved equaliser.
The start of the chickenmap was pretty equalised. In the 5th minute, Inumeg scored the 1-0 and Grizzly equalised right after thanks to MadMarc. However, afte the 7th minute, !nfinity gained more control over the map. You could notice by their smooth teamplay that they must have trained it well. MadMarc and Grizzly provided a lot of firepower for M, but a team consists of 5 players. Inumeg brought his team in the lead again and Rev increased that to 3-1 after he finished S4ko’s run. S4ko himself scored 3 more caps, d4ik made two and Inumeg made one more. This game ended in a 9-1 victory for team !nfinity.
Prost vs ddly
Q3CTF2. Both sides locked their base down and kept a close control over the middle. This made it very hard for anyone to score. The game remained on a 0-0 tie.
CTCTF3. Unlike the previous map, this one was a lot more open and had more chances, especially for the Prost side. They managed to get ahead early thanks to Astral after a cap in the 2nd minute. Powered by Quad, Aqua increased that to 2-0 shortly after. Prost had another good chance a couple of minutes later but team ddly managed to take out their carriers and returned just in time! After about 8 minutes, a crosscap situation took place with Keks and TuboRgAz having the flag. Both had to pass their flag along but the German team managed to return for Green to score. Shortly after halftime, team ddly were able to score one as well. Forgotten crossed the middle with the flag only to get killed a few steps away from his own flag. Fortunately TuboRgAz was around to finish the run and score the honour cap. Now looking for more, ddly increased their pressure a lot, but the Prost defence survived and the game finished in a 3-1 victory for Prost.

Nice review guyz and finally its ‘well written’.
It was hard vs dwc on ctf2 after 1-0, i think we would attack more to have less pressure in our mid and defense.
We unfortunetly had bad luck because Apex had 999 during an escaping flag.
On ctctf3 ds was better than dwc may be because we were more prepared on this map.
GG all, tx Admin.
PS: Astral you did a good job, because when i checked the demo, you made the timeout 2sec after Apex had 999, so GG
WHO THE FUCK IS RAI ?????????????????????????? ROFFEL
