Only if you don't play for them

Standings Update:

Overall

1) Lynx             - 75.0% points contested, 84 total points, 212 max points
2) ONE!             - 70.4% points contested, 74 total points, 209 max points
3) Outlaws          - 64.6% points contested, 75 total points, 199 max points
4) SNinja           - 51.5% points contested, 49 total points, 194 max points
5) WG               - 46.9% points contested, 54 total points, 179 max points
6) Apprentice       - 32.5% points contested, 41 total points, 155 max points
7) GG               - 11.0% points contested, 12 total points, 143 max points

1) Lynx now leads in all categories although their teams are no longer undefeated. They also enjoy a head to head edge over every other clan.

2) One! remains the top contender, but they have to be concerned that 0 of their points have come against Lynx. One! holds head to head against the rest of the field.

3) Outlaws has seen their stock fall a bit. Once close to first they are now firmly entrenched in 3rd.

4) SNinja was on the upswing before a few setbacks. They remain in 4th, but their position is not as secure as it used to be.

5) WG has strung together a series of victories to get to 0.500 in the win column and are threatening SNinja for 4th.

6) Apps boasts the best record against Lynx of any clan, but find themselves firmly entrenched in relegation territory. They're going to need to either go on a tear or hope for a collapse from above to make it interesting.

7) GG hasn't won another game since the last update. They do still have a double digit PC.

Congrats to AI of Lynx who is the first player/team to secure a tournament win or victory. 5-1 on Battle Islands V with only lost to JV who already has 2 losses.

Great job AI!

As far as almost decided tourneys:
-FiveStarGeneral needs only to beat Wini on French Brawl or Wini to lose to Kryzstof to get 1st, Wini wins out and he gets first.

State of the Race update:

Tournaments are updated on the front page.

Overall

1) Lynx             - 75.6% points contested, 109 total points, 205 max points
2) ONE!             - 74.5% points contested, 117 total points, 200 max points
3) SNinja           - 53.7% points contested, 78 total points, 173 max points
4) Outlaws          - 52.9% points contested, 80 total points, 169 max points
5) WG               - 46.8% points contested, 75 total points, 148 max points
6) Apprentice       - 33.3% points contested, 54 total points, 132 max points
7) GG               - 16.6% points contested, 25 total points, 115 max points

1) Lynx remains in first with a stellar 75.6% PC. Leading the way for them are their 3v3 teams which are a combined 6-0. Lynx also has a +8 head to head margin on rival One! and the only tournament win of any clan thus far (AI on Battle Islands V).

2) Hot on Lynx's heels in 2nd place with a PC of 74.5% is One!. Led by a collective of strong 1v1 performances (FiveStarGeneral on FrenchBrawl, Buns on Landria, 89th lap on battle Islands V) One! actually has the best win percentage and total points of any clan. Unfortunately their team play has not been as strong as rival Lynx and may end up being their downfall.

3) SNinja finds themselves in 3rd place with a mixed bag of results resulting in a 53.7% PC. SNinja's lineup is heavilly reliant on four players (rakleader, Hergul, max, almosttricky), and all four have had their ups and downs, and with no one lighting it up they just don't have enough to keep pace with the leaders

4) How the mighty have fallen. At one point Outlaws was the points leader and pushing Lynx and One! in a 3 way battle for first. However 3 slot player Njord has struggled in his tournaments and another 3 slot player Yaxvi dropped out of the competition. After a bad run of games Outlaws find themselves down at 52.9% and hoping their slide doesn't drag them down into the relegation battle.

5) WG keeps chugging along in the 42-47% range picking up victories and losses in near equal measure. Summer's stellar 5-0 performance on MME leads the way while weak 3v3s (2-6) prevent the clan from flying higher. Still they have a substantial lead over relegation rival Apprentice and are unlikely to be in any danger of not seeing A again next cycle.

6) Apps has also been a model of consistency hovering around 29-34% almost the entire time. Just like we all predicted before CL MoD has racked up 4 losses on MME while Cowboy has 4 wins on strategic Greece. Other poor 1v1 performances on Landria and Battle Islands V have prevent Apps from making a serious charge at not relegating. All of this has taken a backseat to the raging inferno controversy that is whether Master will inherit their spot next season.

7) GG win counter is upto 7 and they scored their first team game wins with Biomes upset of Apps and DRoR upset of SNinja. They're relegating for sure but proving that they can still influence the races above.

RIP when cowboy is the new mod.

Haha yeah getting ranked in tier 2 killed my self estimation ;) jokes aside, we will most likely win the remaining teamgames on mme and dror. That should help making up my atrocious performance on mme 1vs1 a bit. Mistakes have been made... ;)

And we have our second tournament officially settled as Summer of [WG] can no longer be caught in MME at 5-0 with her last remaining opponent almosttricky now having 2 losses.

In terms of almost settled tournaments:

On French Brawl the winner of FiveStarGeneral vs. Wini will take the tournament.

On Strategic Greece Cowboy at 4-1 can only be caught by Linberson (1-0), can seal the tournament with a head to head win or two losses by Lin.

I'm curious what clan has the most promotions to Group A? Meaning Promoted from B to A and then relegated at some point only to return? I feel like it has to be Ahol or GG? Can someone who is less lazy than me check?

No.

But's it's GG by a mile

Overall

1) Lynx             - 69.6% points contested, 133 total points, 182 max points
2) ONE!             - 67.4% points contested, 137 total points, 174 max points
4) Outlaws          - 54.5% points contested, 120 total points, 140 max points
3) SNinja           - 52.6% points contested, 101 total points, 149 max points
5) WG               - 46.1% points contested, 96 total points, 128 max points
6) Apprentice       - 43.1% points contested, 97 total points, 112 max points
7) GG               - 18.8% points contested, 39 total points, 72 max points

We're rapidly approaching the end of clan league, and have two exciting races. Lynx versus One! for first and WG versus Apprentice for 5th.

Lynx leads in points contested and max points but trails One! in win percentage and total points. Lynx has been led by their stellar team play while One! has dominated in 1v1s.

Down at the relegation cut line Apprentice has surged to make a serious bid for staying in A. With 97 total points they have edged out WG in total points though trail in PC%, MP and win rate. WG needs just 16 more points to clinch staying in A, can they hold on or will they be caught by Apps late surge.


The tournament winners list is growing as more and more tournaments are settled:

2v2 MME: Apprentice (master of desaster and master meldarion)
1v1 BIV: Lynx (AI)
1v1 Biomes of America: SNinja (Hergul)
1v1 Landria: One! (Buns157)
1v1 MME: WG (Summer)

As of right now only Outlaws and GG have failed to win a tournament. Can either of them break through before CL ends?

12 h2h points between Lynx and ONE! still up for grabs as well :OOO
I wonder which way it will swing? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Go Turtles!

Wow, this endgame will be insane exciting!!!
But everyone calm down, we will win ;)
(I, as a spectator, have already won with this exciting endgame, but my clan will win too :D)

And still a fight for the relegation too!
What an exciting season!

No, you calm down!

ONE! is now one point off of clinching first place.

No, you calm down!

You know me, I can't ;)
Especially in such a super exciting endgame! :O

ONE! point :D

Lynx is surrendering to Apprentice on Volcano Island, meaning ONE! has officially won CL.
