Four games were played this week, with 3 new winners and 1 returning winner. Congratulations to these players:

Mog
Pinballmap
SweeT
Brain.Man

Deathrose Games:


Q31:
Game opens up with Brainman going very aggressive blade master harass on ins, followed up by a super fast wyvern rush and nonstop pressure from which ins eventually breaks and gg's. Early on, Alien and NoMercy fought it out, Alien losing his expo. After ins left, Alien tried to stop Brainman's income, but had a hard time with nomercy harassing both players and hoarding. They try to coordinate a teaming on Brain but by then Brain's blademaster had hit the gym and could not be stopped.

Q35:
After Wreck dropping and rehosting, we ended up with 2 subs, of which Ludix rushed out the other sub Alien. Mog repeated his perfect creep route, getting both red camps. Ludix goes hard on Mog while Red7z7 hoards, then Ludix goes wild attacking all before he has to leave due to time. Red7z7 launches a few large attacks in attempt to stifle the larger heroes of Mog, but Mog holds strong in the end.

Q37:
DV- goes a fast rush on Vyvanne and beats him out early with an infernal summon, making Vyvanne probably the best player to end with 15 points. DV- takes 4 expos but quickly Nline shuts that down. Significant teaming ensues with DV- and Pinballmap on Nline for quite some time. All players are broke and Nline is teamed to death, not able to pull through even with the mask of death and crown of kings on his Shadow Hunter! The game comes down to a final chess-match between Pinball and DV- and their last 40-50 food armies, both players needing this win to advance. After some stalling, and some great positioning and lightning orb procs on units, DV- is left to fight valiantly with his last 2 heroes against the orc army -- and Pinball prevails.

Twisted Meadows Games:


:Q28:
This game featured the off-race Ludix and ostone on this small map. Ostone goes hard and fast on SweeT, while Duck and Ludix have a fiend and then garg mirror match. Duck wipes out Ludix's garg army and then takes the additional expo. SweeT is winning out over Ostone, especially when his DH goes superman. While Duck is finishing off Ludix, he unfortunately disconnects, leaving SweeT to finish off the 1v1 he was winning.
