    [Tourney] Scorch vs The Blue Flaggers [10/2]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_: 5-3 SCR 2-0 TBF 2-1 SCR - TBF has a good defense, but honestly SCR has faced strong defenses like Defiance's and DF(in a scrimmage, SCR won bc DF was rusty af) and still got pass them. The only issue for SCR may be Ace/Invidus/Code, and without Gam who switched back and forth as assassin on def/off it'll not be easy for their primary capper Cardona to get the flag, let alone cap, if he has 0 support.
    [Tourney] The Crusaders vs Valory [11/2]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_: 5-4 TC 2-1 VAL 2-1 TC - TC may have not a good start into his year, but every match that I've seen tells me that TC is dead serious about making a difference compared to last year.
    d41eb797-e87e-490a-9b77-c752a05a7517 Cardona360: 5-1 TC 2-1 TC

    [Tourney] Scorch vs Valory [17/2]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_: 3-0 Scorch 5-1 Scorch - Valory without a 5ive playing will result in a very quickly match, but if Val learned from their mistakes and coordinate better, than they might have a shot at getting 1-2 captures.
    af359a08-e591-4ab6-b605-bb276ec7950b Unifier: 3-0 Scorch 5-0 Scorch - Valory's roster is rather weak and with Sprae and bluely having left recently most of their really good players are gone.

    [Tourney] Scorch vs The Crusaders [23/2]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_:4-3 SCR 3-2 TC 1-0 SCR - Interesting faceoff, but it really comes down on what TC will bring to face Scorch.
    284a938a-7b2e-43c0-904f-53fcdee2ffa1 Spades_: 5-3 TC 3-0 Scorch 2-1 Scorch

    [Tourney] The Blue Flaggers vs The Crusaders [24/2]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_: 5-2 TC, 3-0 TBF, 2-0 TC - TC is a bit stronger right now and should be able to handle TBF on Blackout and agreed
    d41eb797-e87e-490a-9b77-c752a05a7517 Cardona360: 2-1 TC 3-1 TBF 2-0 TC

    [Tourney] The Templars vs Insurgence [3/3]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_: 3-2 TT (Pagodas), 3-2 INSG (on their map), 2-1 INSG (Agreed) - Probably the closest match out of them all, but INSG performed very well against ADV where TT seemed to struggle against them. From what I've heard both teams will bring their top rosters, but TT has the advantage in stuff like plays and experience, where INSG has the PvP advantage.
    d41eb797-e87e-490a-9b77-c752a05a7517 Cardona360:2-1 TT (Pagodas), 3-2 IN (Opposites), 1-0 TT (Agreed) - One of the closest in the tourney. Pizze is on the roster which will help TT very much for the Pagodas and Agreed map wins. IN has pvp advantage but TT have better offense
    284a938a-7b2e-43c0-904f-53fcdee2ffa1 Spades_: 2-1 TT 3-1 IN 1-0 IN

    [Tourney] Delta Force vs The Blue Flaggers [3/3]
    d8c2c5b1-738b-4f15-a5e2-4fa4546f6482 Wrathburn_:3-1 DF, 3-2 TBF, 3-1 DF - Mainly comes down on what those teams bring, but this has a potential to be a close match.
    d41eb797-e87e-490a-9b77-c752a05a7517 Cardona360: 1-0 DF (Platforms), 2-1 TBF (Divergent Strike), 2-1 TBF (Agreed) - Low cap game, comes down to what agreed map is and how well teams perform there

    [Tourney] Delta Force vs The Crusaders [4/3]

    [Tourney] Insurgence vs The Templars
    Written by @Feeliq_

    Two teams with well known players, skill and experience face off today, The Templars and Insurgence, but which team manages to get the upper hand in the Fire conference?

    (due to laggy recording a small summary of first map)
    Pagodas, standard pick by TT, due to their massive advantage of experience on their pick, however INSG isn’t going to make it easily to cap for them, even without any experience and half of their players never seen the map. Both offensives try throughout the game to get a steal and far, however TT offense consisting of Suntail, caligraph and Raging manage to get a lot more steals than INSG offense of bca2011(Ducksfan), Versions and LeUniCow. However due to the INSG defense those steals are not getting far. bofbofbofbof(TheCoca111) is still able to cap, due to November ninja stealing and passing it to him, bring up the score to 1-0 for TT.

    Opposites Collide V, INSG pick, due to fitting their play style a lot more than TT. Suntail is able to get a clean steal as chemist after TT offense distracted the majority of INSG defense, but Azol cuts him off while he goes down bot and Suntail goes down to damage. Azol(heavy) gets a steal, but goes down quickly to TT defense, Versions steals as chemist, goes bottom, is fairly far with Dave slowing down jarvan4 and Gorbi as ninja, however November as ninja is able to slow Versions down, allowing Gorbi/jarvan4 to catch up and recovering on him.

    Suntail is able to steal again as chemist, is getting top, but slowed down by Dan and is recovered on by Jeaton. However Chac steals as heavy, has taken a lot of damage by Heartsrevolution and gets shot by him and Ducks recovers. Another steal by Azol, he gets assassinated, giving Ducks a steal, Dave slowing down the heavy on recovery, allowing Coca to pass him and gets another successful assassinate on a carrier. Somehow Ducks is able to steal, tries to go top, however Chac/Gorbi/Coca cut him off before Ducks could get a heal by LeUniCow. Bit later Ducks is able to survive the TT defense with flag, he goes top with support by his team, calig tries to slow him down by going back, however he is not successful and with noone on Ducks, he is able to capture for INSG. With the majority of TT defense roaming and LeDoener being alone in the flagroom, Dan tries to ninja steal with the help of Ducks, however he pearls into Gorbi and is being recovered on, thus Azol gets a clean steal, but is being cut off by the defense and dies. Dan(soldier offense) gets a steal after Ducks died, goes to the bridge with a lot of recovery on him, however his support cleans TT recovery, allowing Dan to jump down to Ducks and pass. In the meantime calig has gotten a steal, but is getting frenzied by Hearts, allowing Ducks to cap again, bringing up the score to a 2-0.
    INSG not giving up their pressure on offense and this means Ducks is getting another steal, however he does not notice coca as assassin and dies, allowing Versions to get a clean steal, but Pizze throws webs in his way to slow him down and recovers on him, due to recovery catching up. While all of this went down calig is half across the map as heavy without a lot of recovery besides Dave trying to recover as ninja, but he fails and calig captures. After several steals by both teams, calig gets a clean steal, tries to go top, goes back and attempts to juke recovery, however he goes down to a lot of damage. Azol steals later as heavy, with November in front of him he is being slowed down, allowing gorbi/coca to catch up, however Azol manages to kill November and Coca, getting pass gorbi, but he dies to damage before LeUniCow is able to heal him, thus gorbi recovers. With only 2 minutes on the clock Azol steals, goes top with recovery on him, but Raging is able to kill him, due to Azol having taken to much damage from the recovery earlier. Suntail is able to steal as soldier, goes the back sponge and has no recovery on him, can pass to calig, in the meantime Azol countersteals, but it is short lived due to Coca assassinating him, giving TT their second capture. Dan is able to steal as chemist, passes because of a time pressure to Dave as ninja and thus the map ends with a close 3-2 for INSG.

    Slate, the agreed map for this matchup, Ducks and Raging steal 4 minutes into the game and cause a tie, which noone manages to recover on either carrier, thus the match ends with an overall tie.

    Final Scores: 1-0 TT 3-2 Insurgence 0-0 Tie
    Overall: Tie! PotG @sportyman56 and @bofbof

    [Tourney] Scorch vs The Blue Flaggers
    Prematch Interview with @snowbreak by @Miskey

    Miskey- Going into the tournament almost every team has made big changes in one way or another. That being said, TBF seems to be one of the only teams without major roster swaps going into it. How confident are you that your team will be able to keep up with the recently revamped Scorch roster?
    Snowbreak- I'm pretty confident that my team has the ability to thrive against Scorch. We had a scrimmage with them a bit ago, which we won, and their only new addition from what I can see seems to be IrrelephantNews, but I think gamren performed better as assassin than he does. I know they've put in a lot of work coming into this tourney that TBF hasn't really done but we'll be giving it our all against them.
    Miskey- Something unique about your team is that you generally learn new map picks fairly quickly. What map are you picking this match, and is there anything we should keep an eye out for on it?
    Snowbreak- I'm not quite sure which map we'll use in the match..., its undecided currently by the team but it'll probably be a curve ball (;
    Miskey- Let's talk individual matchups. There are two matchups in particular that I'm interested in. How do you think Ace fairs against Scorch's archer (likely chaos), and what is your offense going to do to get past their roaming defense?
    Snowbreak- I think the archer battle will be interesting, two inactive but very strong archers facing off. I'd say Chaos gets better positioning but Ace has better aim; but I'm not an archer expert. Our offense should be able to do whatever we normally do to get past defenses, avoid as much as possible but charge through when needed.
    Miskey-We've seen you guys run a lot of elf and necro in the past, being one of the only teams willing to try them out in matches. What is the advantage of running those classes despite them being considered weak, and will we see either of them out of you guys today?
    Snowbreak- They have their advantages in a bunch of areas, just are viewed in the current meta as a bit unorthodox. Elf is great in the right hands with all its abilities and necro is pretty good at distracting with zombies. I'm pretty sure they'll be used today.
    Miskey- Final question. What is your personal prediction going into this match?
    Snowbreak- I think TBF will win, that is all.
    Miskey- Alright, thank you for your time!


    [Tourney] Scorch vs The Blue Flaggers
    Prematch Interview with @Cardona360 by @Unifier

    Unifier- Good evening to your Cardona, first of all good luck in your game later today and thank you for taking some time off for this pre-match interview. Let’s get started. TBF has not given out their roster yet, however they have beaten multiple good teams in the past, how are you feeling about the match right now?

    Cardona- I feel our roster will be able to adapt to whatever their roster will be; with almost the entire team ready to play today, I feel very confident
    Unifier- They’re known to be very strong on defense and with Invidus being unbanned very recently their defense just got another boost, do you think this will trouble you and your team a lot?
    Cardona- With the versatility our offense has, it won’t trouble us too much. Depending on their map, it could cause a bit of mishaps, but nothing a pause to explore the map can’t fix :smile:
    Unifier- I have been informed they might be picking Skyglass, what’s your team’s experience on it and how do you expect them to perform on it?
    Cardona- I recall a scrimmage against Scorch where they used that map, but I wasn’t there and I don’t know how it went. Skyglass will be troubling with Invidus, and our lack of practice on it, but our overpowering defense should make for a good time for TBF.
    Unifier- Your map pick is Blackout, it is known for being either disastrous on defense or being a great advantage, how would you describe your team’s ability to defend on it with the current roster?
    Cardona- I feel Scorch defense will be able to ravage the offense time and time again, even with roam-ups from some TBF defense members.
    Unifier- Final question, do you expect a rather smooth victory or do you expect to have a tough nut to crack?
    Cardona- I feel TBF will be the toughest nut to crack in our tourney bracket, but we are natural nutcrackers. I’d say this will last about an hour with the possibility of going to the 3rd due to TBF’s ambiguous map pick.
    Unifier- Thank you for your time and best of luck in the game!

    The match begins with Scorch’s pick, Blackout, a small offense bias map. Both defenses held strong throughout the first few minutes of the game, successfully preventing both offenses from escaping the vicinity of the flagroom. However this soon changes as Krazydona gets out of the blue flag room and manages to get support from both his medic and chemist, allowing him to get over the iron bars and towards his spawn with ease. With little recovery on Krazydona, TBF turns to their offense to get a last minute steal in hopes of creating an opportunity to capture and recover. Their calls are met by ch00ch, who manages to escape Scorches defense and get his health restored, placing both teams in the traditional Blackout stalemate. Within the safety of TBF spawn ch00ch passes the flag to snowbreak, creating a soldier vs soldier stalemate. Both teams attempt recoveries, however, none are successful and Blackout surprisingly ends in a 0-0, ensuring a third map.

    The second map is Skyglass, TBF’s pick, and an interesting one at that with both teams placing pressure on their offense to bring in the first capture. The beginning of the map is filled with quick bursts of steals from both teams. However, none are successful. A few minutes later both teams have stolen the flag, snowbreak as medic and Krazydona as soldier. Snowbreak goes down to the Scorch recov while Krazydona and his support push through the recovery making it to spawn. However, Krazydona goes down as well due to lack of health and the flag is picked up by 6JI, a ninja, who then captures the flag, giving Scorch the first cap of the match. Moments later Krazydona is out again with the flag and a full restore from Krazygorilla.Krazydona ends up juking the entire TBF recovery which results in a capture and a 0-2 Scorch score. TBF quickly responds with a ninja steal from Indivus, who escapes the flagroom and pearls in front of his spawn. Unfortunately for TBF, GameBoyTre is there and recovers the flag for Scorch. Later both teams get out with the flag, Krazydona for scorch and ACE_BLUE2 for TBF. Unfortunately for TBF their flag carrier dies creating even more pressure for them to recover on Krazydona who has gotten support and is almost at his flag. Although TBF attempts a recover it is too late and Krazydona caps, finalizing the second game score at 0-3 Scorch.

    The final map is Skyworlds I, an incredibly open map which favors offense. With no caps from TBFs side the pressure is on for them to get a 3-0 in order to tie the game. The game begins and TBF rushes for a quick ninja cap. EkkoFox steals the flag as ninja and takes the back sponge then pearls into his flag, resulting in TBFs first capture. TBF keeps the pressure on Scorch with a soldier steal from EkkoFox, who manages to evade the Scorch recovery and capture yet again for TBF. Scorch responds with a quick ninja steal from GameBoyTre who gets out of the flag room but dies and the flag is then picked up by Krazygorilla, who begins to run to her flag. Spades_ steals for TBF as soldier while evading the pyro but unfortunately he goes down due to lack of support and Krazygorilla captures. With Scorches capture TBF cannot win the game, however in this tournament captures still matter and both teams are encouraged to keep playing. The game ends with a capture from Spades_ as medic,finalizing the score at 3-4 Scorch win.

    Final Scores: 0-0 Tie 3-0 Scorch 3-1 TBF
    Overall: Scorch Win! PotG @Krazydona

    [Tourney] Scorch vs The Crusaders

    Written by @Feeliq_


    The tournament match between those Scorch and TC starts with TC’s standard map pick Blackout, due being familiar to play soldier on offense, but Scorch also benefits from the pick with their soldier capper Cardona.

    Both hamza and Arctic manage to get an early steal, but due to damage both cappers die and the flag is recovered by both teams. A follow up steal from Krazygorilla comes, but she gets cornered by TC defense and is killed. 2 minutes into the game Arctic manages to steal after pudgy and Swit distract the defense and pudgy is able to give a full restore to Arctic just outside of the flagroom, due to some good juking by her, she avoids damage from the majority of Scorchs recovery and gets to her spawn, however KrazyBasa countersteals and dies to june as ninja, thus Arctic captures. Hamza gets a steal, is able to survive the recovery by going top mid and is able to get a medic, but Arctic countersteals, allowing lauten, who has been unnoticed by Scorch, to recov as assassin. While this is all going on Arctic manages to get to her spawn, but this time Cardona countersteals as soldier, unfortunately gets shut down by kev as archer, allowing TC to recover and Arctic captures once again.
    A while both teams steal, but nothing to krazy happens or get far until all of Scorchs offense is able to get in at the very same time, Cardona immediately uses that opportunity to steal and takes a lot of damage from double ninja, soldier and a potential threat of getting headshotted, however he pushes on, Krazygorilla is there as medic, but she goes down to TC recovery, yet is able to give Cardona the medic regen. He gets support near bars by hamza and is able to get a restore on the other side of the bars. Lauri tries to knock him into spawn, yet she fails, Cardona manages to cap before Arctic is able to countersteal.
    Lauri attempts a ninja steal and is able to get to their spawn, however due to bad pearling from her side she dies to GameBoyTre, who managed to catch up to her. Cardona steals yet again, gets a restore on xxxdead and ghenry is almost able to catch up to him, however he goes down to KrazyBasa. TC makes an attempt to countersteal, but to a very good frenzy by Choowie kills off Arctic/Swit/Keeler and Cardona captures yet again.
    Lauri steals again as ninja, yet has taken too much damage and dies on the impact of her pearl, giving GameBoyTre to recover. Hamza is able to steal the flag as soldier, gets a restore by Krazygorilla, goes to the bars where june and keeler are waiting for him, yet gets pass them,yet Arctic countersteals and is eventually shut down. Lauri ninja steals again, dies to damage and june picks it up as ninja, but he dies as well, giving Scorch their third capture.
    Cardona and Lauri steal around the same time, Lauri dies to GameBoyTre, Cardona gets out, avoids the shots from kev and is able to get to their spawn without issues. Swit countersteals and is able to get out, however she gets headshotted by Proterozoic, pudgy picks it up and by that time Krazywinds is there, giving pudgy no chance to pass to Arctic who is nearby and she dies, allowing Cardona to cap. Later he steals again and captures, ending the map with 5-2 for Scroch.

    Opposites Collide 5, a map very well known due to almost every team using it against TC, due to hampering TC’s offense which is usually relying on soldier to capture.
    Hamza is able to get an early steal, but dies to lauten as assassin while he is going bottom, after several unsuccessful steals by both teams Lauri manages to steal as ninja and gets healed by pudgy, she gets the capture without any recovery on her. Arctic gets a steal and pudgy is able to throw good webs to prevent recovery from Scorch to catch up with them, however IrrelephantNews is able to get pass pudgy and is very close to catching up to Arctic, however Swit is moving up to support her and Arctic gets the second capture for TC. Krazygorilla steals as medic and takes the back staircase, unfortunately for her lauten and june cut her off, resulting in a recovery by TC. With 7 minutes left both teams do not manage to cap and Opposites Collide ends with a 2-0 for TC.

    To recap, Scorch had a 3 cap lead after Blackout, however TC came back with a 2-0 on Opposites Collide, if TC caps once on Valley of Ruins, which is the agreed map, TC wins and Scorch has to prevent any captures from TC to win.


    Valley of Ruins, the agreed map and starts slowly until the first steal by Cardona, unluckily for him ghenry didn’t noticed KrazyBasa and Krazygorilla entering on another side, with both KrazyBasa and Krazygorilla killed, Cardona has no chance of stealing. Swit gets a steal, but both she and pudgy die before they even exit the flagroom.
    After numerous attempts Swit is able to get out to the mountains, however she gets knocked into Choowie’s frenzy and gets recovered on, after that Lauri ninja steals and pearls to the mountains, however JTB2k catches up to her and recovers on her. Krazygorilla gets a steal as medic, her supporting soldier runs directly into ghenrys frenzy and lauten gets the assassinate on her. Cardona as soldier and Swit as heavy steal around the same time, with Cardona dying first to the defense by TC and Swit getting out only to jump into the river where she cannot get out due to getting knocked away from the land and pudgy kept away by JTB2k from Swit, resulting in her death by a headshot. 4 minutes left, Arctic gets out, but has taken a lot of damage and has no support from anyone, resulting in a recovery.

    Cardona has also gotten to the mountains, however he dies to damage, JTB2k picks it up, but june shuts him down and recovers. TC tries to steal and capture within the last 2 minutes, however they cannot get even close to the flag due to Scorch turtling, thus the map ends with a 0-0 tie and a Scorch win.


    Final Scores: 5-2 Scorch, 2-0 TC, 0-0 Tie
    Overall: Scorch Win! PotG @Proterozoic

    [Tourney] Annihilation vs The Adventurer
    Written by @Krazydona


    We start out on ADV’s map pick, Blackout. It's a bit irregular to see ADV pick Blackout, but seeing how well they did against The Templars and The Crusaders recently, it seems like a strong pick for them. We start the map with steals from both teams, but they don't go very far. Avetis gets a good steal as soldier going towards xxxxdead; he dies but Male is able to pick up the flag. After being pushed back by Anni recovery, he is headshot by BrandinoB. Shortly after, Avetis steals and makes his way to the top of middle. He has little opposition from an assassin and a ninja, but is headshot by Brandino. Constituent, Anni’s heavy offense, clears the flagroom and steals, running straight down the middle. Wulfi darts to him as assassin, forcing him to block. ADV manages to catch up because of this and Z_Cray defeats Constituent with his Pyro Axe. Squantonias (Anni Soldier) gets a backup steal, but is taken down by Wulfi. ADV steals on the other side, but Anni defense (notably Miskey as soldier and Brandino as archer) manage to recover before the steals get too far. Constituent gets another good steal, this time going towards the side of the map. He is headshot by TTD3, but ningeek212 picks up as medic. With support, he runs it the rest of the way for the first capture of the match. The next few minutes consist of good steals from both teams meeting up with good recovery. Squantonias gets a steal to defy, however, going through the middle as soldier. Generally unopposed beyond this point, he gets a 2nd capture for Anni. Squan gets out again moments later going top middle. He is boosted by ADV ninjas towards spawn, where he meets up with ningeek as medic and gets a 3rd capture for Anni. Avetis gets an interesting steal soon after; Anni defense knocks him around a bit until he is able to devote to top mid. With nothing in front of him and Brandino on the ground, he runs to his flagroom. Constituent gets a heavy steal going towards the side again. He gets up and runs, but is assassinated by Wulfi while being distracted with ADV ninjas. Avetis goes down to a headshot, but Kryzzl picks up and runs to flag. Kryzzl gets the first capture for ADV, bringing the game to 3-1 (Anni-ADV). Miskey gets a steal afterwards and is knocked towards the middle. He climbs up and runs across completely unopposed. Miskey quickly gets a 4th cap for Anni, once again bringing Anni to a 3 cap lead. Avetis gets out far soon enough, but Anni defense surrounds and swarms him. He gets to ADV bars but Kryzzl is unable to get a heal onto him. He goes down to the massive amount of Anni recov. Right after, redslime steals as ninja and pearls down the middle. He passes off to DeDondo, but Anni has the flag as well. Constituent was able to run the flag all the way to spawn and causes the first stalemate of the match. Constituent is heavy, but he is able to survive most of ADV’s recovery (many are ninjas). Brandino headshots DeDondo from middle, but Kryzzl picks up. ADV ninjas Wulfi and X_Cray pick up on Bran and eliminate him swiftly. Kryzzl moves positions, this time to a more efficient spot (the structure in front of spawn). She is pressured by Anni recov, but the recovery eventually goes down and she is able to pass to Avetis. Brandino puts heavy pressure onto Avetis, switching his positions about 5 times rapidly. He eventually gets a headshot onto him from in front of spawn. Z_Cray picks up, but as pyro; Scarpa jumps down and assassinates him, allowing Constituent to get the 5th capture for Anni. This ends the map in a 5-1 in favor of Anni, with a minute left on the clock.

    Next map is Skyworlds I, Anni’s pick. Male gets an early steal running out the left side of the flagroom. He is headshot seconds later. Both defenses hold up for the next few minutes, with key headshots from TTD3 and earth element from Miskey. Male gets a good steal and climbs up the wall to the spawn sponge. He launches himself and attempts to pass to Kryzzl as medic. It doesn’t work, aefrogdog easily recovers. Avetis ninja steals after but is confronted by the returning Anni recovery. More steals from ADV fire off, but from a medic and two ninja. They both go down to aefrogdog before leaving the area (Brandino headshot the ninja after aefrogdog stalled him). Constituent steals the flag and runs out the side, but is headshot. Ningeek picks up as medic and continues to run with the flag, but is ultimately assassinated by wulfi. Avetis steals and climbs to the top of the small tower. He drops the flag repeatedly, stalling for support. He dies mid-air, but Male picks up on the ground. He runs for a bit before being lightning’d off the map by aefrogdog. Redslime gets a backup steal, but is stalled by aefrogdog and killed by Orangebreadeduck (Anni Pyro). Avetis gets out going up the back of the spawn tower. He runs out of wall climb and changes his path to through the forest. He is being stalled by a massive amount of Anni recovery. Kryzzl is not in position to heal him, so he gets recovered on. Constituent gets out again, but is killed quickly. The rest of the game continues with steals that don't go anywhere, leading in a 0-0 and an automatic Annihilation win.

    Final Scores: 5-1 Anni 0-0 Tie 2-1 Anni
    Overall: Anni Win! PotG @ningeek212

    [Tourney] Delta Force vs The Blue Flaggers
    Prematch interview with @wintergreen3 by @hamzacx

    Hamza- Thanks for letting me interview you. Firstly, DF has no matches for a bit, but do you still think you guys overall are active? Do you feel this inactivity with matches will be hurt you guys?
    Wintergreen3 - Our matches just didn't work out, but we have been practicing a ton lately and I think we are well prepared.
    Hamza - That great to hear! Assuming you are aware of TBFs roster and your own roster, is there players on TBFs roster that you think could be problems, and is there anyone on your roster that you think could be a problem for TBF?
    Wintergreen3 - I think we just have to keep tabs on 915, other than that we should be fine. I think they should watch out for us as a whole team though, not any one particular player.
    Hamza - Does DF has any specific strategy that they plan on bringing? Has there been practices for any strategies you guys plan to use?

    Wintergreen3 - Well I can't really say anything specific, but yes, we have been practicing special things for this match
    Hamza - About DF's overall roster, you guys have gotten some players that seem to be new to DF. Do you think if any of them play, it will help DF today?
    Wintergreen3 - Yes, I think they will definitely help a lot. They are really well rounded players and that's one thing we were missing for a few months.
    Hamza - That is good to hear. If you had to guess, for tonight match, what will be an specific area DF will be strong in? And weak in?
    Wintergreen3 - Our defense is pretty solid and so is offense, but offense sometimes seems a little shaky and we are working on fixing that.
