Update #2: 1/28/2020

At a Glance:

Quite a few games have been completed in the past week and a half. CORP (2-0) now leads the pack with two 1v1 wins at 6 points, followed by MH (1-0) at 5. {101st} (1-0) also manages to put their first points on the board. HAWKS (0-0) and Statisticians (0-1) still sit tight at 0 points. (Did someone tell them the race has started?) [V.I.W] (0-2) loses their lead with two losses and have fallen to fifth place. FCC (1-2), also with two losses, is now dead last in max points. One might even claim they're overrated.

1) CORP            - 100% points contested, 6 total points, 240 max points
2) MH             - 100% points contested, 5 total points, 240 max points
3) {101st}        - 100% points contested, 3 total points, 240 max points
4) FCC            - 33.3% points contested, 4 total points, 232 max points
5) [V.I.W]        - 30% points contested, 3 total points, 233 max points
6) HAWKS          - 0% points contested, 0 total points, 237 max points
7) Statisticians  - 0% points contested, 0 total points, 237 max points

Games finished since last week:

3v3: Biomes of America

MH RogueNK, blobblob, Ollie defeats FCC Checkmqte, MGO, FalerCZ
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20490094

The first finished 3v3 game of the division. MH lands one pick in South America in the middle of an enemy cluster, effectively countering four enemy picks with just one. An accurate prediction in Alaska Coastline on turn 2 all but secures the victory, and FCC lasts only two more turns before admitting defeat.

2v2: Modified Medium Earth


FCC MasterPitt, Xenophon defeats [V.I.W] Glass, Grendel
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20547342

Quite poor play on [V.I.W]'s side.

• For some reason, [V.I.W] decides that Canada is worth more than West US, which either counters Central America or allows taking it with minimal deploys. Canada provides neither of those benefits.
  
• Grendel dedicates three full turns of income and heads to Xinjiang only to find an uncompleted Caucasus.
  
• Grendel seems to forget that neutrals can't deploy when he pings Kyrgyzstan on turn 9 before hitting with 7.
  

A very nice pre-emptive blockade in Papua New Guinea seals off hope of a back-door attack on Australia, and FCC sails smoothly to score their first victory.

1v1: Battle Islands V

CORP Baer defeats [V.I.W] lineal2012
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20621934

After picks, Baer has a stronger position with one pick handling two of lineal's, and the other two providing him safe income. On turn 5, the players trade bonuses in the east. Both players could have easily made quite a few more delays on this crucial turn, but for some reason decide not to. Turn 11 is another turn where delay is king, but neither side really makes as many as possible. Cales (6-bonus) is broken, and lineal surrenders at 11-21 income.

CORP Baer defeats Statisticians Nick
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20572000

Here is an illustrious lesson on the importance of move order. On turn 3, instead of completing Ovatius first before venturing into new territory, Nick decides to hit Rumosh third order instead of last order. Baer takes the territory right back and completes Zarway (4-bonus). Then Baer defends the double border for a couple turns, and the recapture of Zarway gives Baer his second win.

1v1: Biomes of America

{101st} pumpkinhead defeats FCC MGO
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20629872

Pumpkinhead gets no less than 5 connected picks in northern South America, and a mis-prediction causes MGO to blockade 7 of his armies in Lima. Pumpkinhead is able to capitalize on his lead and a few turns later MGO realizes his position is untenable.

Solid update. Thanks.

I'll tell HAWKS the race has started and hopefully they will crush :D

Weeee knooooow buuuut aaaaareee liiiviiing iiiin theeee sloooooooowmoooooode wooooorld

great update and analyses! GO MH GO!

Lol grendel wtf. Also, FCC for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd...

Yeah that was a bad game by Grendel and me. At least we didn't give other teams scouting material.

Update #3: 1/31/2020

At a Glance:

Only one game has passed since the last update. MH (1-0) defeats Statisticians (0-1) in French Brawl. Why make a new post for just this one game? Two reasons: First, I accidentally made this comment already, so this is just being edited in and probably won't be seen by anyone. Second, this puts MH first in the rankings.

1) MH             - 100% points contested, 8 total points, 240 max points
2) CORP            - 100% points contested, 6 total points, 240 max points
3) {101st}        - 100% points contested, 3 total points, 240 max points
4) FCC            - 33.3% points contested, 4 total points, 232 max points
5) [V.I.W]        - 30% points contested, 3 total points, 233 max points
6) HAWKS          - 0% points contested, 0 total points, 237 max points
7) Statisticians  - 0% points contested, 0 total points, 234 max points

Games finished since last update:

1v1: French Brawl

MH DrApe defeats Statisticians [ARM]Belson
https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=20687978

Belson makes his picks in under two minutes, and ends up ceding the entire south to DrApe, which effectively loses the game. On turn 1, he goes for Picardie, a bonus which DrApe has an existing double border with. Further weak play confirms the loss to DrApe, and MH jumps to the lead.

HAWKS for 1st or 4th. That's what im saying

For the people who missed it, I did a stream past saturday on all CL games that had finished at that point.

Here are the division B games (+ the only A game to have finished): https://www.twitch.tv/videos/544116639

Highlights include:
- A small part of the stream being muted for copyright issues with the songs on the background.
- Me missing some obvious stuff
- Me calling something and ftb when it isnt
- Me showing my off all my wins vs. Timi.

M'Hunters needs a fan like Viking1007.

@AyanM:
great update and analyses! GO MH GO!

Sorry, but you are lagging Vikings swag. This is something you can't learn. I guess everybody needs to find his own personal style.

You can't poach viking, remember, you're an anti-poaching clan.

The fact that it is a white background kills that.
