Congratulations Xenophon! I always believed you would become someone great on WL, even back when I first met you as a total noob!! :) https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=11990785

Way to go Xeno!

Also if you are looking to join Masters here are the new recruiting requirements.

- Low boot rate < 5%
- Only main accounts
- No ladder manipulation/stalling.
- 50% in 1v1,2v2,3v3 (exceptions possible)
- Top 10 on one of 1v1,2v2,3v3,MDL,RTL.
- Need at least 3 masters to vouch for you.

We usually like to poach but we need to take advantage of this good timing. Remember you must have 50% win rate in 3v3, and 7v7v7v7. No exceptions!

@Jefferspin what salary does Masters pay?

I hope you pay Xeno enough, like at least 10,000 coins/month. He deserves it, and more probably.

I'd buy you.

And yet another Blitz export becomes Masters MVP! ;)

Congrats to Linberson for carrying GG back to division A!

Well done Linberson!

6-0 in every tourney :O

You are the MVP of Div B!

Next season it'll be Linberson vs Xenophon for 1-2 place!

Update #29 - July 22nd:

This page has been intentionally left blank.

3v3 -

• Deadman's Rise of Rome:
  Tournament Winners: Jefferspin/Master Atom#Elite!/Master of the Dead (MASTERs)
  
  
  • MASTERs defeat Turtles due to a non-join on the Turtles team. Masters win their last remaining game by default, and as a result, win the tournament. With their most recent loss, Turtles move to create a three way tie for last place. All teams in last place have one more game left to play, however ONE! has already lost to both Turtles and Blitz, while Turtles and Blitz are playing their tie-breaking game currently.
  
  Standings ~ MASTERs: 5-1 / Outlaws: 4-1 / Lynx: 4-2 / French: 3-3 / Blitz: 1-4, ONE!: 1-4, Turtles: 1-4
  
  
• Europe:
  
  
  • No games completed this week.
  
  Standings ~ MASTERs: 4-1 / Lynx: 3-1, ONE!: 3-1 / French: 3-2 / Turtles: 2-2 / Outlaws: 2-4 / Blitz: 0-6

2v2 -

• China [FINISHED]:
  Tournament Winners: Master of the Dead/Master Ryiro/PanagiotisTheGreekFreak and Timinator • apex (MASTERs)
  
  
  • China is finished.
  
  Standings ~ MASTERS: 5-1 (1-0) / Turtles: 5-1 (0-1) / Lynx: 4-2 / French: 3-3 (1-0) / ONE!: 3-3 (0-1) / Outlaws: 1-5 / Blitz: 0-6
  
  
• Guiroma [FINISHED]:
Tournament Winners: Beren • apex and Muli (ONE!)


• MASTERs beat Turtles in the last game on 2v2 Guiroma. Both Master Turtle and culpa were booted during this game, which, combined with their positional disadvantage off of picks, made for an easy last win for the Masters team of rouxburg/master of desaster. Masters finish in second place with a respectable 4-2 rating (passing French due to winning the tie-breaker match), while Turtles finish Guiroma with their first winless tournament (naturally, they are in last as a result).

Standings ~ ONE!: 6-0 / MASTERs: 4-2 (1-0) / French: 4-2 (0-1) / Outlaws: 3-3 (1-0) / Lynx: 3-3 (0-1) / Blitz: 1-5 / Turtles: 0-6


• Final Earth:
  
  
  • No games completed this week.
  
  Standings ~ MASTERs: 4-0 / Turtles: 4-1 / Outlaws: 2-2 / ONE!: 1-1 / French: 2-3 / Blitz: 1-3 / Lynx: 1-5

1v1 -

• Volcano Island:
  Tournament Winner: Master Jz (MASTERs)
  
  
  • PJ017 of ONE! defeats USA Biches of Turtles by boot. PJ moves into second place with his latest win, while USA Biches finishes VI safely in fourth place with an overall 3-3 record (Biches can't pass third due to losing the tie-breaker against Blitz, but can't be lower than fourth either since all of his wins come from defeating the players ranked below him).
  
  Standings ~ MASTERs: 5-0 / ONE!: 3-1 / Blitz: 3-2 / Turtles: 3-3 / Lynx: 2-3 / Outlaws: 1-4 / French: 1-5
  
  
• Guiroma [FINISHED]:
  Tournament Winner: master of desaster (MASTERs)
  
  
  • Guiroma is finished.
  
  Standings ~ MASTERs: 6-0 / ONE!: 5-1 / Turtles: 4-2 / French: 3-3 / Outlaws: 2-4 / Lynx: 1-5 / Blitz: 0-6
  
  
• Strategic Greece [FINISHED]:
  Tournament Winner: AWESOMEGUY (Lynx)
  
  
  • Strategic Greece is finished.
  
  Standings ~ Lynx: 5-1 (1-0) / ONE!: 5-1 (0-1) / Blitz: 4-2 / MASTERs: 3-3 / Turtles: 2-4 (1-0) / Outlaws: 2-4 (0-1) / French: 0-6
  
  
• African Elitism [FINISHED]:
  Tournament Winner: master of desaster (MASTERs)
  
  
  • African Elitism is finished.
  
  Standings ~ MASTERs: 5-1 / Lynx: 5-1 / French: 4-2 / Turtles: 3-3 (1-0) / Outlaws: 3-3 (0-1) / ONE!: 1-5 / Blitz: 0-6
  
  
• Phobia [FINISHED]:
  Tournament Winner: malakkan (ONE!)
  
  
  • French finish their last (and, subsequently, the tournament's last) two games. Marechal Lannes plays admirably against Master Jz of MASTERs, but he is unfortunately unable to defeat her and drags the game on for another few turns after his defeat for no apparent reason. Fortunately, some good news come out of Phobia for French as 125ch209 is able to play through the entire game against Lynx. Semicedevine honors andy's memory in Phobia by getting booted as well, so French get their first and only win to finish their train-wreck performance on Phobia. They swap places with Lynx to finish in an unlikely sixth place, with their only win being the tie-breaker game against Lynx. Is there a word that means "fear of excessive ties?"
  
  Standings ~ ONE!: 5-1 / Outlaws: 4-2 (1-0) / MASTERs: 4-2 (0-1) / Blitz: 3-3 (1-0) / Turtles: 3-3 (0-1) / French: 1-5 (1-0) / Lynx: 1-5 (0-1)
  
  
• Strat ME [FINISHED]:
  Tournament Winner: #Master [QB] (MASTERs)
  
  
  • In the final game of Strat ME, Krzysztof of Outlaws beats USA Biches of Turtles. Krzysztof finishes in second place with an impressive 5-1 record (which is tied with first place's record, but Krzysztof lost the tie-breaking game to determine the winner of Strat ME early on in the tournament), while Biches finishes another tournament this week with an even 3-3 record (ironically enough, for Biches who has booted so often this season, all 3 of his wins on Strat ME were boot wins).
  
  Standings: MASTERs: 5-1 (1-0) / Outlaws: 5-1 (0-1) / ONE!: 4-2 / Turtles: 3-3 / Blitz: 2-4 (1-0) / Lynx: 2-4 (0-1) / French: 0-6

7th          Blitz                49          65             =

Masters (1) decide Turtles deserve a beating this week and steal 9 points from them alone. The other 3 points they get this week come from their win on Phobia against French, which contributes to French's official relegation from Division A. They have a net gain of 12 points this week.

ONE! (2) officially secure second place with their win against Turtles on VI and Lynx's loss in Phobia to French allowing ONE!'s Total Points (TP) to exceed Lynx's Max Points (MP) ceiling. They have a net gain of 3 points from PJ's win on VI this week.

Lynx (3) get a nice little boot on Phobia to finish this week with a net loss of 3 points.

Turtles (4) get shafted by everyone this week, losing all of their completed games. Biches contributes 2 1v1 losses, while the Turtles' team performances are plagued by boots and non-joins. They have a weekly net loss of 15 points and a corresponding decrease in their MP ceiling by 15 points.

Outlaws (5) can breathe a sigh of relief, as they are now officially safe from relegation. Both French's loss to Masters on Phobia and Outlaws' win against Turtles on Strat ME allow Outlaws' TP to surpass French's MP ceiling. Outlaws have a net gain of 3 points from their only completed game this week - their win on Strat ME.

French (6) despite being officially relegated, manage to scrape a decent week with both a win and a loss on Phobia evening out their performance this week.

Blitz (7) have no completed games this week.

Lots of (semi) noteworthy things happened this week, with Beren rigging ONE! into second place, Deadman rigging CL against Turtles to push Masters' win rate above 80% again, and Outlaws... somehow avoiding all this rigging by securing their tenure in Division A for another season. Congratulations to Outlaws for remaining in A next season, and better luck to French in Division B.

Wow Outlaws could potentially get 3rd place (statistically speaking)! That would conclude well an awesome come back!

Edited 7/24/2017 02:32:05

3rd will be kindda hard, but 4th definetly a target. I heard turtle soup is great hehehe

gogo outlaws :). May aoc play and kick butt (apart from MH :P) next CL :).

  Tournament Winners: Master of the Dead/Master Sarah♦/Sephiroth (MASTERs)
  
  
  • ONE! beat Lynx. Hades gets booted in the last turn, but the game had already been won by ONE! at that point. ONE! get their fourth win on EU, while Lynx get their second loss to tie with French in third place (with an overall 3-2 record currently).
    
  • Sadly, ONE! spoil their chances at winning EU by losing to MASTERs. This game marked the last game on EU for both clans. Masters take an uncontested first place + tournament win (once again) with an excellent 5-1 record, while ONE! secure second place for themselves with a solid 4-2 record.

• Final Earth:
  
  
  • ONE! defeat Turtles. Ironically, in the slowest tournament of CL9, Turtles are the first to complete all of their games with a satisfactory 4-2 record. Turtles are guaranteed at least third place while being statistically eliminated in the running for first place. With their second win in the bag, ONE! have to win all of their remaining games - in addition to hoping Masters drop their last two games - in order for ONE! to place FIRST!

Lynx (3) lose a 3v3 game to lower their MP ceiling by 5 points.

Outlaws (4) have no completed games this week.

Turtles (5) lose a 2v2 game to fall to fifth place (since Outlaws have completed no games since the last update). They have a net loss of 4 points.
