That was probably the fastest match I have seen today. Congrats to the RvB.

The stream is delayed by 5 minutes. The match was over so quickly that the guys flying it could watch the whole thing after they won.

That fight was crazy... That kinda sets up the stage for RvB, though. If RvB doesn't at least make it into the finals, then they're going to look pretty silly. Especially after that showing.

Why's that? GOML isn't exactly an AT powerhouse.

Fast and furious action. Well done, guys.

Gogogo RvB!

Im more comfortable attributing this total massacre to the incompetence of LAWN, rather than the skill of RvB

Then we could add another variable, and mention that even great/experienced teams, have lost to scrubs because of counter-setups.

If people wanted the AT to reflect apropriately on tactic, skill etc, everyone would be using the same core hulls (but fit whatever they want) and then have a whole series - or at least group stage before finals.

This is classic cup-style tho. Who'd think Chelski would beat both Barca and Bayern Münich over a number of games? They even struggle to be among the top in their own national league.. But: the same applies to AT, any decent counter and even the best could lose to someone average.

AFK-cloaking in a system near you.

I know all of the guys on our team and I can tell you that they are very good players, especially when it comes to solo and small gang stuff. They have worked hard for this and are a very dedicated bunch.

Would it be too much to say that maybe we won because we were the better team in terms of both skills and tactics? Contrary to popular belief, RvB is not just full of Rifter alts and scrubs.

I know that; my point is though, that even if you were ****, you would still beat lawn because lawn is worse. Beating them has little to do with how good rvb is, but rather how bad lawn is.
