Well6

Our second clan battle was our first against a non-Zip clan (The Shadows of Death) and our first on an outside server. It was supposed to be an 8 v 8 game but only 7 TSD players were able to make it. We had 11 to choose from, so 4 people had to spectate (and eventually everyone did figure out how to use the spectator password!).

The first map played was well6. The players were Victim, Karl, Hetzer and Grimm on defence, and Z, Mic and rj on attack. After our disappointing effort in well6 against ICBM, we got ourselves a bit more organised for this game. Having Mic and Victim, our well6 specialists, back in the side after being unavailable for the ICBM match was also a big bonus.

Mic and Z worked very well together on attack and, with the excellent support of rj, quickly managed to capture the key. TSD's defence was aggressive but was unable to stop Loki's onslaught. By the end of the game, we had managed to capture TSD's key a total of ten times. Everyone agreed that Mic in particular played a superb game.

Meanwhile, back in our base, our defenders were doing a brilliant job. TSD's attacks were not as well organised as they could have been. Sometimes just a single scout would try unsuccessfully to get through. Vlad played a strong role as a pyro but, in general, TSD's attacks could have been better coordinated and executed. Congratulations to our defenders for preventing any key captures.

The first screenshot shows the final rankings with TSD one player short. The teams were in fact even for the game, but one TSD player dropped seconds before this shot was taken. The second shot taken just a minute before the game ended shows this.

Map result: Loki 100, TSD 0.
