Bam4

The last map played was bam4, 8 v 8. Playing were Karl, Fenrir, Grimm and Proto on defence, and rj, Mic and Strafe on attack, with Z doing a bit of both. We went into this map fairly apprehensively, as we knew we had to win this to win the battle. This map, however, was one we had never played before together as a clan, so didn't quite know what to expect. We hadn't really ever practiced together on it, either, and some players didn't even know their way around too well!

Fortunately, Karl was awesome on defence, killing and maiming constantly. Those who got past him, then had to face Fenrir, Grimm and Proto, and not many made it to the flag. The sentry gun seemed to fall asleep at times, failing to fire at a few critical times. After the game had been at 0-0 for a little while, QG did manage to get away with our flag and go to a 10-0 lead. It stayed this way for most of the remaining game, and we looked certain to lose. That was, however, until rj, with help from Mic and Strafe, pulled out something special and got away with the flag to level the game at 10-10. Then, in the dying minutes of the game, rj stole QG's flag one more time and scored to take us to a 20-10 lead. Congratulations to rj for a particularly good game.

QG's response was savage, with wave after wave of attackers urgently and feverishly attacking, but our defence held, with Proto in particular coming up with some great saves. Z's help in defence in the last minutes helped a lot too.

This was a very intense battle, and we were ecstatic about stealing victory in the final minutes of the game. QG played a great game and were unlucky not to have won. Congratulations to all the Lokis who played in this game, it was a fabulous effort and result.

Map result: Loki 20, QG 10.

Game result: Loki won 2-1.
