I'd like to say great season to everyone who participated. Plenty of surprises, but also a good amount of "the right team won"...which adds up to a good season in my book. I will be writing a season recap/awards article later (maybe tonight) so look out for that. But first, of course, is the Hot or Not
TWDT-D
HOT
Top5Squad successfully captured the TWDT-D championship (2-0, 50-34, 51-42) today over Ruby and Jaa immediately announced he was changing the squadname to Top1TWDTDSquad. Geio was very strong in both rounds (11-5, 15-4) and earned the mvp in the 2nd round. The first round’s mvp was herbalist yangyun of Ruby (15-9) in defeat, doing a decent job running while outnumbered. Top5Squad grabbed the lead early (14-6) and kept it going. Other strong performances in the first round were turned in by Jones (started 5-0 and finished 12-7) and Jaa (12-9). The second round was a little closer at the start and midway point, but Top5Squad eliminated some targets and finished well. Geio really carried his team, especially towards the end (8-3 to 15-4). Lockdown, Apok, and Jaa did enough for their team to win as well. On Ruby’s side in the second game, Unabled once again turned in a 13-10 (his 3rd score of that in 9 games), and Lofty added the same unlucky score (13-10).
NOT
Deck got off to rough starts in the first round (1-3 to 4-10) and again after he was subbed into the second (3-6). Lofty and Unabled who both did well in the 2nd round had poor first rounds (5-10, 4-10 respectively). Herbalist yangyun had the opposite, with a strong first round and poor 2nd (0-4). Kid Kaos managed a meager 6-10 in both rounds. The only poor score for Top5Squad of either round was Jones’ 4-8 in the 2nd round.
MVP: Geio (11-5, 15-4)
Honorable mention: Herbalist Yangyun (15-9 round 1), Unabled/Lofty (13-10 round 2), Jones (12-7 round 1)
LVP: DecK (4-10, 3-6)
Dishonorable mention: Unabled/Lofty (4-10/5-10 round 2), herbalist yangyun (0-4 round 2), Kid Kaos (6-10, 6-10), Jones (4-8 round 2)
TWDT-J
HOT
To the surprise of nobody, Revenge captured the TWDT-J championship today (2-0, 49-47, 50-32) over Without Ease. This completed their 9-0 (10-0 if you count both rounds of the Finals) undefeated and fairly dominant season. They were only really challenged by Without Ease here in round 1, and WOOT last week. In round 1, it was Vys (15-8) and maketso (11-9) who had the top scores and survived for Revenge despite them playing much of the match 4v5. They couldn’t finish off Megaman89, but they did not allow him to get kills on them and the time expired. Raples was the only member of Without Ease to achieve an even record. In round 2, it was a blowout throughout, as Hercules (14-7) led Revenge to an easy clincher. Aimbot (13-9), Vys (7-1), and Ara (7-4) also turned in strong scores in the win. Raples (14-9) played well once again, and Megaman89 managed an even record, but Without Ease had little else of positive note on this day.
NOT
Like DecK in dueling, Golden_Aim started off slow and struggled in both rounds (1-3 to 4-10, 2-10), but his other teammates were not much better. Struck (5-8, 1-5) was beat down repeatedly, i.d. must have caught amnesia in-between games (2-10 in round 2), and Yakuza got hit from a few drive bys (1-2, 1-5). Revenge seemed to just outclass them (until Burnt subbed himself in for some victory dying, 0-3). Ara was almost the goat in round 1, violating the get in base and stay there rule and losing a bunch of deaths early on. Revenge rallied and prevailed 4v5, however, so it’s basically impossible to say they are not the undisputed champions of TWDT-J.
MVP: Vys (15-8, 7-1)
Honorable mention: Aimbot (10-10, 13-9), Hercules (9-10, 14-9), maketso (11-9, 6-6), Raples (10-10, 14-9)
LVP: Golden_Aim (4-10, 2-10)
Dishonorable mention: Struck (5-8, 1-5), Ara (violated base rule 2-10), Yakuza (1-2, 1-5), i.d. (2-10 round 2)
