TWLD The grand finals.
We finally made it, Two sets of teams but only one set of medals, one team had to budge.
Will it be another failed legacy for Dice? or will they salvage the season as they are clear favorites and let their stars bring home some more blue medals or will it be a eager Force who have had their eyes on one league all season and have practiced more than any squad.
Round 1
Dice 50-39 Force
If a script was written out for a play or act to be performed exactly as it should and was predicted to be so, this round was it. A very nervy Force who were extremely passive with a suicidal Okyo going out in mere minutes with a very lack luster 3-10 and this left Force to crumble from with in in very short order and Dice going for the throat. Best going Ham with a 14-8 and Racka with a reserved but quality 10-3. It was a one sided round as much as a TWDD including Force and Dice went mere hours before hand. The round ended and Dice celebrated early as everything was going to plan and confidence was sky high they couldn't be beaten ever this was for the most part the same line that beat the legendary Fierce a year previously. However Force had other ideas.....
Round 2
Force 50-39 Dice
This round started off very much like round 1, for Force Cres was still striking true from radar and Skepsis and Iron Survivor still struggling for a handle on the game very much like the first round, the differences were Raazi and 2pacz where strong previously began to get twitchy, nerves invaded 2pacz as the effects of his weed left him, Attacks and Skepsis rallied poor starts and Okyo completely went to town on Dice, from achieving absolutely nothing the previous round, to every rush hitting its mark. Of course Okyo still went out early, but it is Okyo after all but not without getting a awe inspiring 17 kills to his name first, this is why Okyo is the most dangerously inconsistent player in the league you really don't know what your going to get.
All of a sudden it was 1-1 and Force and Dice became eerily quiet, however a loud and big as ever twl crowd were shouting GAME ON.
Round 3
Force 50-42 Dice
Finally Force had the momentum back and they would not waste a chance to get forwards and push especially against a pro offensive lineup of Dice that wasn't used to playing defensive, 2pacz tried to push back and could not adapt to a more defensive stance from Dice, pulled a Okyo and had to be rescued by Jav star 24 for composure with a 4-8 in very short order. Mythril, Raazi and Racka were too quiet, last year they were 3 of the most deadly and aggressive players in the game however this match barely a peep was heard out of them. Best however was every bit as deadly as he ever is and lead a massive counter charge which brought Dice to just -2 to Force lead from a previous -15 gap, and it looked like Dice 2016 was back on the cards. This is where experience comes into play and where experience wins games, and their was someone who had more experience than anyone else in TWL finals than the exception of Ease or maybe Mythril and thats Skepsis, and sadly for Dice he didn't skip a beat and knocked Dice back down again and delivered the stake to the heart of Dices 2016 dreams for Fierce's vengeance and more importantly Forces new found legacy.
Force were the champions, Cres, Okyo, Attacks and Iron Survivor would take home their first blue medals for maybe the last chance in this game ever. I certainly hope not. Siaxis had gone fishing, or was being chased by Ogron in Duckhunt we aren't quite sure, but he will receive a blue medal and did contribute throughout the season.
Differences that would have effected the game if Siaxis showed, Would Okyo have been playing round 2? probably not and then he would not have had the chance to go 17-10 and tip round 2 for Force. If Raazi and 2pacz had spent more time warming up would things have been different? Certainly Mythril, Racka and Best worked hard and were on hours before. It was my belief that the difference was that 4 great players don't make a team of 5, Dices 5th man lost them this final, where as Force had 5 players and 6 for most of the season who were all near the same skill level and for the most part consistent. Had Ease been the 5th man like on Burn would things still have turned out the same? "No Ease no Victory" apparently. 2Pacz must keep on playing and put this behind him, otherwise it will haunt his confidence for years to come, and he must take the good points out of the season, which was that he performed well numerous occasions and even became Hot of the Week on one Instance.
Hots
Best 14-8 11-10 14-10 Great performances despite a losing team, you will leave with your honor intact.
Cres 14-10 13-7 9-10 Fantastic Round 1 and 2 performances, has performed great in semi finals and finals when it really mattered.
Okyo 3-10 17-10 10-9 Almost didn't put him here for round 1, but without his second round performance Force would not be TWLD champions.
Skepsis 9-10 4-7 15-8 Round 3 he took control of the game and held Force together through shaky nerves. No Skepsis no win
Nots
2pacz 12-10 6-10 4-8 Still not the end of the world, the level of quality in the match, worst scores have happened against worse players.
Raazi 7-9 4-10 10-10 Doesn't matter, hes beaten this game already.....
Hope you have enjoyed this years Hot or Not as much I have writing it, there will be a special edition hot or not awards thread I will be bringing out in the next day, where we will be looking at those who need to be praised and those who need a wooden spoon inserted up them for good measure.
I thank you all for your support and I was expecting people to go through and pointing out every punctuation mistake but infact people have been great and have been offering me encouragement at every turn, so thank you for that.
