TWDT-D


Blooms vs. Fire
50-32

Racka (14-8) regained his old form this week, slamming Fire in a crucial match, leadding Maketso (11-4), Okyo, Wiibimbo, and Ricko to the W.

Mythril (10-10) and Cres (9-10) were the only players who showed up, as Raizin, Shaun, and Cape stunk up the joint.

HOT: Racka
NOT: Cape (1-10). Another week, another NOT for Cape, with a clutch 1-10 in a seemingly must-win match against their playoff contention rivals. Keep young children away from this guy, he's a choking hazard.

---

Paddington vs. Terrorist
50-37

Weak (13-8) and Shadowmere (13-9) were the Splash Brothers this week, knocking out a reeling Terrorist in TWDT-D, leading 24 (9-4), Tiny, and Siaxis.

Rough (11-10) and dreamwin (10-10) achieved parity, but Henry Saari, Stayon, and NL>Trigger all negged.

HOT: Weak
NOT: NL>Trigger (4-10).

---

Baratheon vs. Kamikaze
50-42

Zidane (12-9) led Buck (11-9), Afri (10-9), Geio (8-5), and Turban to the victory over Kamikaze.

Skatarius did his best to win, adding people I wasn't aware were on Kamikaze but apparently are, notably Mythril, Racka, and Cres, but they still couldn't win.

HOT: Zidane
NOT: Skatarius. The only thing you should be adding, is cyanide to your cereal.

---

Stark vs. Silence
50-37

Stark shocked the warbirding world on Sunday, with one of the biggest upsets in TWDT-D regular season history, toppling Silence, who were 5-0.

Here are Ease-led teams in TWDT-D the past four seasons:

2016: Silence (5-0)
2015: Thunder (7-0)
2014: Power (7-0)
2013: Thunder (7-0)

Ease was 26-0 in the last four years, and this game marks his first loss in the regular season since 2012.

Ardour (16-5) led the assault with a mesmerizing performance, ahead of Racketeer (10-9), JAMAL, and Paky Dude.

For Silence, Tripin (10-10) and 2pac (9-10) were solid, but poor play from Ease (7-10), Rasaq, and pee pee sock downed the 1st place team.

HOT: Ardour
NOT: Rasaq (2-6). A piss poor performance, although given you're playing with someone name pee pee sock, not altogether surprising.

TWDT-J


Fire vs. Kamikaze
50-33

Trasher (8-2), Cres (10-9), Mythril (8-5), Shaun (8-8) and Mikkiz (9-9) put in a balanced, concerted effort to take down a beleaguered Kamikaze squadron.

For the downtrodden, raizin put in a surprisingly good 10-8 performance, while everyone else negged.

HOT: Trasher
NOT: Smoking Blue (2-10). The only blue thing you're qualified to smoke are Trasher's balls.

---

Silence vs. Stark
50-43

After getting downed in warbird an hour earlier, Silence got their revenge in javelin, as Ease responded with a performance worthy of Homeric epic, bringing down lightning and thunder on Stark with an electrifying 18-9.

Roiwerk (11-8), Zizzo, Rasaq, and Tiduz also chipped in.

For House Stark, Ardour, Beanie, i.d., JAMAL, and Mean Gene did what they could to stem the tide, but to no avail.

HOT: Ease (18-9)

---

Terrorist vs. Baratheon
50-38

Rough (16-6) actually managed to be more than a punchline in javelin for the first time in years, leading Terrorist with an impressive performance ahead of Stayon (13-9), Dreamwin, Hellkite, and Rows.

Despite solid outings from Zidane (11-10), Turban (9-10), and Wax (8-10), poor showings from Stannis and Geio let them down.

HOT: Rough
NOT: ROWS (3-10).

---

Paddington vs. Blooms
50-43

This was a tough match, as Paddington edged it out at the end, with 24 (11-7) leading the way, along with Tiny (10-8), Weak (11-10), Shadowmere, and inmate.

For the Bloomers, aprix (13-10) and maketso (13-10) were stellar, but mediocre outings from Dwopple, Okyo, and Racka sunk their chances.

HOT: 24
NOT: Racka (0-5). I found a yellow vessel a little more suited to your talents:

Paddington vs. Blooms
15:00-14:41

Henry Saari (105-72) and NL>Trigger (102-34) led Stayon, Stung, and Rough in spider, with Dreamwin and NL>Trigger sharing terring duties, and downfall (2.9 RPD) and Hellkite (2.9 RPD) in shark.

Ease reminded everyone why he's the best javelin of all-time, ripping Stark open like a bag of chips, and devouring them whole with a titanic 18-9 game.

Honorable Mention: Rough (16-6). Rough also had a strong showing in TWDT-J, downing Baratheon with aplomb.


Baser of the Week: Trasher (132-45)
This was an almost must-win game for Fire, and Trasher made the most of a fortuitous zone crash, returning with a vengeance and lighting Silence up for 132 and clinching the W.



Player of the Week: Shadowmere
Shadowmere has been knocking on the door of Player of the Week for several weeks now, leading his squadron to a 6-0 over a fortnight (alongside Weak and 24, as the trio have been producing across all three leagues), including ridiculous 16-9, 20-9 scores in TWDT-D Weeks 4 and 5.

He produced a balanced effort this week, with a game-high 13-9 in TWDT-D vs. Terrorist, an incisive 9-8 in TWDT-J vs. a recalcitrant Blooms, and a 48-13 terrier performance in TWDT-J in a stunning 15:00-14:41 upset in TWDT-B. Kudos!

Honorable Mention: Trasher. Trasher helped keep Fire's season alive this week, going 2-0, as he notched an 8-2 in javelin and 132-45 in spider to catch up to Blooms in the standings.

Ease outdueled Geio in a thrilling 1v1 finale, clinching the W for Silence.

Week 2: Best (18-9)
Best made his TWDT debut in style, massacring Kamikaze with a legendary performance.

Week 3: Raazi (15-9)
Raazi stunned a crowd of 50+ onlookers as he took on two Paddington warbirds 1v2 down 48-49, slaying them both and clinching a critical victory for Fire, and wowing spec chat with his superior play. Kudos!

Week 4: Shadowmere (16-9) and Vys (11-2)
Vys was an absolute monster in helping Baratheon clinch their first TWDT-D victory alongside Best, as the duo trampled over Stark. Shadowmere stomped the Kami with the highest score of the week in a 50-28 romp.

Week 5: Shadowmere (20-9) and 2pacZ (19-6).
Shadowmere was an absolute monster in warbird once again, clutching a 49-49 game on top of dropping 20 kills. Ridiculous! 2pacZ was unstoppable, keeping Silence undefeated in warbird and dropping the hammer on Kamikaze.

Ardour singlehandedly took down Silence in TWDT-D with a monster game, ending Ease's streak of 26 straight undefeated regular season games in wb. Wowza!



=========================================


Jav of the Week


Week 1:Mean Gene (12-3).
MG slammed Blooms in TWDT-J, leading his team to the promised land.

Week 2: Shaun (18-10)
Shaun was an absolute juggernaut, despite his team getting trounced 50-39, showing the complete repertoire of javelin skills, and likely finding himself on the radar of several TWLJ squads looking to boost their ranks.

Week 3: Dreamwin (18-7)
Dreamwin gobbled up Paddington in a tight 50-44 match featuring multiple veterans, posting a Herculean effort which was very much needed to come away with the win.

Week 4: Dreamwin (15-9)
Dreamwin scored a 15-9 to crush Stark in a massacre, leading Terrorist to a 3-0 this week with impressive outings in wb (14-5) and spider (114-48) as well, and could have very easily been the Player of the Week. Nice work!

Week 5: aprix (12-7) and 24 (12-7).
aprix led Blooms over Terrorist's TWLJ-quality line with icewater in his veins, leading his team in a 50-43 route. 24 did much of the same, MVP'ing over the likes of Ease, Commodo, and Roiwerk to clinch a 50-42 win over Silence's previously undefeated line. Niceness!

Week 6: Ease (18-9)
Ease reminded everyone why he's the best javelin of all-time, ripping Stark open like a bag of chips, and devouring them whole with a titanic 18-9 game.


=========================================


Baser of the Week:

Week 1: Cripple (116-39). He got the most amount of kills in the least amount of time this week, leading Stark to a solid victory over Blooms.

Week 2: Mattey (3.1 RPD) and Commodo (3.1 RPD)
For a complete shutdown of a good basing squad, smothering them with a clockwork cram and coming up with a cold-blooded 15-2 win over Kamikaze.

Week 3: Cripple (161-55)
This was maybe the biggest score in TWDT-B history, and in a 15 minute game no less. Wowza! Stark unfortunately managed to lose the match 15-14, but through no fault of his own, putting up a Colossal performance. Great work!

Week 4: nosydawg (111-65)
nosydawg managed to outkill the likes of Trasher and Kess in a 15-12 thriller, MVP'ing the game and leading Kamikaze to the upset victory over Fire. Kudos!

Week 5: Best (104-55)
Best shined in a tough TWDT-B match against a superior opponent, sizzling them for 104 kills when no other player got out of the 80s. Dominant!

Week 6: Trasher (132-45)
This was an almost must-win game for Fire, and Trasher made the most of a fortuitous zone crash, returning with a vengeance and lighting Silence up for 132 and clinching the W.


=========================================


Player of the Week

Week 1: Dreamwin.
Dreamwin is an idiot and not anywhere near as good at this game as he thinks he is, but he performed across all three leagues this week as Terrorist went 3-0, with a 15-9 in wb, 16-7 in jav, and 105-49 in spider, and earned the Player of the Week.

Week 2: Ease.
Silence was the only squadron to go 3-0 this week, as Ease led the foray through TWDT-D with a 10-9, TWDT-J with a 15-8, and TWDT-B with an 83-36. While the warbirding match over Fire and basing match over Kamikaze were fait accompli, the javing match required both deft skill and aplomb to navigate and come out with the victory over a TWLJ Finals line featuring both talent and synergy in Stayon, Rough, and Dreamwin, and he came through with flying colors, MVPing the match.

Week 3: Stayon.
Stayon led Terrorist with a superb 14-4 to knockoff Kamikaze in TWDT-D, a solid 10-8 in TWDT-J versus a recalcitrant Paddington, and a game-high 88-32 over Kamikaze in TWDT-B, as his team went a perfect 3-0 this week, leading the league.

Week 4: Weak and Commodo
Weak was immaculate in TWDT-D this week, notching a 10-0 ace in warbird over Kamikaze, then following it up with an MVP over Baratheon in TWDT-J, sizzling them with a 14-7 outing, going 2-0 for the week and helping Paddington to a 2-1 performance.

Commodo beasted a hotly contested 50-39 TWDT-J match, amassing a Herculean 15-6 to clinch the W, then managed a 3.0 RPD sharking a 15-4 massacre of Blooms alongside Mattey, going 2-0 for the week and leading Silence to a perfect 3-0.

Week 5: Turban and Zidane
While Best also managed a 3-0 on his new squad, Turban felt he had something to prove after being traded for the second time this season, taking down the squad that drafted him in two leagues, crushing Fire with a 10-6 in TWDT-D and a scorching 108-35 in TWDT-B when no one else was even close to 90, while stomping Kamikaze in TWDT-J in-between.

Zidane was also instrumental in leading Baratheon to its first 3-0 week, notching a 10-5 in warbird, a 13-6 in javelin, and a 3.0 RPD in shark as the 4x TWLJ Champion expands his already impressive resumé to all three leagues. Kudos!

Week 6: Shadowmere
Shadowmere has been knocking on the door of Player of the Week for several weeks now, leading his squadron to a 6-0 over a fortnight (alongside Weak and 24, as the trio have been producing across all three leagues), including ridiculous 16-9, 20-9 scores in TWDT-D Weeks 4 and 5. He produced a balanced effort this week, with a game-high 13-9 in TWDT-D vs. Terrorist, an incisive 9-8 in TWDT-J vs. a recalcitrant Blooms, and a 48-13 terrier performance in TWDT-J in a stunning 15:00-14:41 upset in TWDT-B. Kudos!
