@FSG
I'm an open book for you, I adore the competitions and I have a bracket fetish ;)
(I always use them... for smileys, for my related thoughts, even for the Tour events (single elimination tourney bracket LOL ))
But stop copying me, I am unique and unrepeatable! :P

Back to the topic!

@Glass
if I ever catch up on reviewing games
Since I still have a lot of games to recap
I do not read those detailed game analysis because I am not an active player, so I'm not sure I'm objective enough, but I think you shouldn't do detailed recaps for every games. Especially if this causes a slip and the scorekeeping won't be current enough.

I mean, by default, you can write 1-2(-3) sentence recaps for the matches to give a short impression to everybody who won't open the games (e.g. boot info can be very useful), but analysis per turn by turn is very time consuming.
Still you can write those detailed analysis (or very good idea what you did with Smoove, to ask a participant to share inside thoughts (less work for you ;) )) about key games, surprising results, interesting matches or any, just separate the scorekeeping (which should be up-to-date with short recaps) and the detailed match analysis.

But this is just my (only one) opinion, and I am only a viewer/fan of CL ;)
(but what a fan! I wish I could buy a t-short with Warzone CL logo! :D (or at least an underpants with MoD logo ;) ))

As many have suggested the detail with which I review games is not sustainable for all CL games. Thus I have decided every week I will review a few games of interest and provide an update on the race.

Alright for these week our featured games are upset special:

French Brawl: Tof (SNinja) defeats Njord (Outlaws)

https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20687989

Many thought Tof was the weak link in the champs 1v1 lineup but he gets a win here over Njord.

Picks: Njord takes the North +1s, 1,2 before spending picks 3-6 on Poitou Charentes. As Tof eschews Poitou Charentes and picks the North 1s 4,5, this results in Njord getting his first 6 while Tof gets the rest of the relevant picks. Not to be too critical of a player whose far better than me, but maybe if you get your first 6 they should be winning picks.

Turn 1: Njord takes first turn +3. Tof takes first turn +2.

Turns 1-5: Tof's pressure on the +3 prevents Njord from doing anything other than defending the +3 and taking a +1. Tof completes a +1, his second +2 and gets triple border on Njord's +3.

Turn 6: Tof breaks the +3 securing the victory.

Strategic Greece: Cowboy (Apprentice) defeats Kurdistan (Lynx)

https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20814239

Our fearless clan leader was picked by many to finish last in the Greece tournament. Instead after besting the longtime ladder leader Kurdistan he finds himself in a tie for first place.

Picks: Kurd triple picks Macedonia. Cowboy puts picks 1,2,4 on West central Greece with pick 3 being on Pegasae-Pharae to counter Macedonia. Kurd picks the East coast with middle picks while Cowboy takes it late after spending middle picks on Macedonia. The result is Kurd gets 2 picks on the East Coast while Cowboy gets 1 pick on the east coast. Each gets the 4 they triple pick. While Cowboy gets the Pegasae-Pharae counter.

Turn 1: Both complete their FTB 4s. Kurd also takes a two 1s and invests on the front. Cowboy moves strong to the double border.

Turn 2: Cowboy prays to the RMO gods and they find him worthy as he sidesteps Kurd's east elim attempt. He strikes hard at the double border but Kurd puts just enough in the right territory to survive this turn

Turn 3: Cowboy invests in the east to stay alive. Kurd can't predict the double border a second time resulting in break and victory for Cowboy.


Biomes of America: Thrall (GG) defeats Jimmy (Lynx)

https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20885915

I've been harsh in my criticism of Thrall's play but maybe the criticism motivated him as he beats Jimmy of Lynx on Biomes of America giving GG just their 2nd win of the league.

Picks: Jimmy gets his first 7 picks which includes East Coast, Northern Great Plains, Coast Mountains, and Hawaii. This leaves him completely shut out of South America. Thrall takes Alaska Coastlines and Chilean Woodland And California.

Turn 1: Both go max attack to Anchorage but Thrall beats Jimmy there. Using autocompletes and Jimmy blockading Hawaii the count stands Thrall 9 Jimmy 8.

Turn 2: Jimmy goes hard to California. Thrall defends alaska coastline. Each completes their outstanding bonuses. Thrall 12 Jimmy 10.

Turn 3: Jimmy invests in California as does Thrall. Jimmy expands to Southern Great Plains for card. Thrall breaks coast mountains. Thrall 10 Jimmy 7.

Turn 4: jimmy gift blockades coast mountains giving Thrall the entire west coast.

Turn 5-7: Thrall stacks towards Jimmy's central US income while his own expansion in South America is completely safe to secure his first win of the league and GG's second.

State of the race update

Apologies for the lack of updates. I didn't quite realize how long ago my last update was. The overall standings are upto date, the individual tournaments will be updated today/tomorrow. Where we are now:

1) ONE!             - 85.0% points contested, 34 total points, 234 max points
2) Lynx             - 72.0% points contested, 31 total points, 228 max points
3) Outlaws          - 70.6% points contested, 41 total points, 223 max points
4) SNinja           - 48.9% points contested, 24 total points, 215 max points
5) WG               - 41.1% points contested, 21 total points, 210 max points
6) Apprentice       - 29.8% points contested, 20 total points, 193 max points
7) GG               - 17.3% points contested, 9 total points, 197 max points



1) One! is your strong leader in points contested and max point leader while 2nd in overall points. Overall things are going pretty well for the clan many pegged as the favorite. The beneficiary of some non-joins they've proved plenty potent in actual games. Perhaps they're most impressive win to date is of Rheumakay and Suschel handilly defeating Rakleader and AlmostTricky on 2v2 MME.

2) Lynx has the second best win percentage and an impressive cadre of wins. If there's a downside its that they shown themselves vulnerable to upset with Wini, Kurd and AI all dropping games to players they were expected to beat. It appears any clash between One! and Lynx will be critical to who ultimately wins the competition.

3) Outlaws could very well have been in 1st place if not for the departure of 3 slot player Yaxvi including a non-join on Szeurope. Instead despite having the most total points they are here in 3rd place. We'll be watching to see how they hold up in the subbed slots.

4) SNinja, the defending champs find themselves beneath 50% contested and a rough start to CL. Of particular concern is the multiple team losses so far to other contenders. Can they rebound and make a charge or will they have to settle for comfortably not-relegating?

5) Not much has changed for WG since the last update. They're comfortably in 5th place in the standings but have accumulated their points by beating up on GG, and a receiving a SNinja non-join. It remains to be seen if they can generate points in tougher matchups.

6) Apps has a few impressive upsets and wins but mostly a lot of losses. In the relegation battle the head to head with WG looms large.

7) GG has raised their win total to 3 and PC% to 17. Not much else to say here.
