Throw one, count to five, throw another.

 

Uploading game 7 now. I'll give it a few days for anyone to contribute their videos and then update this thread again.

Also lol @ you thinking it was a map issue and not the grating "com cant place shit" bug.
And that presence of mind to not get that Q were trying to get the CV round 2.

 

I wasn't aware there was a bug where commanders were unable to place buildings. I haven't encountered it myself so it must be relatively new. I figured it was a similar situation to what Streetsoffire used to have, in which one team often couldn't place the refinery in the North West of the map.

As for working out what was going on, I definitely found it a lot harder on Ward and Insurrection to work out what teams were trying to achieve in comparison with Forest, Isle, Cyclo etc, because the actual battle lines were far less clearly defined and things seemed a lot more chaotic.

 

The bug has been there for at least half a year.
Pretty gamebraking if you cant place refs in your base at the start of the game.

 

I bet it was just Freak not rotating the refinery. Oh well we are used to playing without refs by now anyway.

Game 2 was a lot of fun, none of the commentators pointed out our all mid strat though.

 

Freak or Posthumous suggested that we should have everyone just run to the enemy main and I was like "fuck it, let's do that", since I saw how stupid the resource rates were, it seemed relatively risk free and fun.

We used everything we learned in the other scrims about not building refineries or raxes and just attacked constantly. Like, we always had people in their north east base throughout the game, constantly putting pressure on them. They had a small breather when they got meds but by that time we had so much space.

 

I had a good fun looking at the spec replay and seeing just how many times xrays radars and vfs went down.

 

Resources don't matter at all if you can get a tank and survive forever with it.

Me and Senor spent 25 mins in game 2 roaming around and killing every single sighted building.
3 phase was a good idea, I was able to simply ignore all enemy vehicles on my way while attacking x-ray bases.

 

My personal stats across games



Since overall I enjoyed the league, had fun and have a fair amount of spare time, I'm considering running stats across all games and all players to put together some kind of DotaBuff Records style / Awards (1st, 2nd, 3rd place) across the categories (Best / Worst).

 

That was also my intention, but I got busy with other things along the way. Somewhere in this thread I linked spreadsheets that had stats for the first X games, haven't updated it for the more recent ones.

Feel free to use those. When I'm off work maybe I could re-link them and/or update them with the last games.
