BFME2 1v1 Tournament

[Zangief]

This is for a tournament that Mershmellow, Twinkie, and myself are having as we are the only ones who play BFME2. Post if you have something to contribute, please don't spam this thread.


General Rules
- Starting resources = 1000
- No custom or ring heroes.
- All replays must be saved and emailed to me (I will be recording this on the TDC site so I need to upload the replays). We will need the replays to get stats for the tie breaker.
- If you are sitting out, you may and are in fact encouraged to be an observer.
- We will take as long as needed to complete this tournament. Schedule games with your opponent on your own but please inform all particpants when you will be playing and of the results.
- Any faction may be used (all games).

Round 1 - Pool Play
All participants will play each other once. The 2 players with the best record will advance to the final round. This is in effect double elimination, but there could be a tie. All maps will be randomly selected. Host is also to be randomly determined.

Tie breaker - We have 3 people so each player could potentially have a 1-1 record. The tie breaker is the sum of kill to death ratio, strategic skill, and tactical skill. The two players with the lowest sum will face each other in a one game playoff. The winner will advance to the finals.

Finals
The finals will be a best of 3 match. The lower ranked player (defined as the one who lost the in their first round match up) will get to chose the map for the first game. For games 2 and 3 (if necessary) the loser of the subsequent game will chose the map. Host will alternate with the top ranked player getting host for the first game.

[Zangief]

Mershmellow and I played earlier, I was aggressive, but in the end the captain of gondor is just too much for me.

Mershmellow takes game 2.

[TDCmershmellow]

Hells yeah! Captain of Gondor.

I was impressed with the overlord's skills.

[FrkUout]

Maybe I need to get this game so I can pwn some mershmellow

[Zangief]

Modern RTS's are awesome because of replays. Its like having a video of the game but its just one small file.

[Nobody]

Is the replay from only one persons perspective?

[Zangief]

You can do anyone's perspective, or an overview watching everyone at the same time.

[FrkUout]

Too bad you need the game to view them.

[Zangief]

^ This is true.

And we have finished first round play. The winner of Game 1 is Mershmellow and the winnder of game 3 is Zangief.

Game 1 Replay - I don't have it but it was a pretty good game, twinkie held of mershmellow for a while but got over run by gandalf, aragorn, and boromir.
Game 3 Replay

This means that Mershmellow and Zangief will be facing off in the best of 3 final round. I fear for my life. I pwned twinkie but made some big mistakes. If I had been on top of everything, it would have gone a lot faster.

[TDCmershmellow]

zan held off twinkie's early rush, and like usual, twinkie has no late game skills. I keep telling him he needs to use saruman, but he never does. If he used him he could have pwned the bulk of zan's army and let lurtz and company finish off the heros. If zan had captured the light towers at any point in the game he would have won much sooner.

i can't wait to pwn my overlord in the final round:)

[FrkUout]

Should be a good series..good luck to both

[Zangief]

Yeah how come twinkie never gets Saruman? He has got to be one of the best heroes for his price. I noticed that in his game against you Matt. He needed some sort of mass unit destoyer. Isenguard doesn't have a tom bombadil or arrow volley, they have weak archers so the only option is Saruman. To me he is an essential pick up mid game for Isenguard. Silly Twinkie.
