Wow. Totally missed this topic.

I'll have to wait until the next time to throw in my hat. But for now I'll toss in 500M to the winner.

On the plus side if I did see this earlier I might of put ISK on my boy Tengu... saved a few pennies there for my tardiness.Blink


That's great, the more participants, the better!

I'll be sure to send you a mail next round so you don't miss it.

Sorry for quality and choice of audio. The actual audio is 2 kids screaming at each other in the background so this seemed much better Lol

It would seem that our semifinalists have been chosen. Excellent.

I should be around for a good chunk of this coming weekend.

Interesting* choice in the Rook.

Also...you and your luck with hull-tanked VNIs. They're like your Kryptonite....

I had a deimos ready to go. It was a last minute decision to not bring it

I was trying to up-skill my covops for rook action after Leto said "think out of the box".

Though, I EFT'd a rook and the heavy missile nerf wS really devastating. It used to be a high speed ECM platform that pushed 500 dps 70k... Which was nasty in any fight. I think now the dps is about half that.

I thought it would be funny because there really isn't much that can threaten a rook in 1v1, and there isn't anything that would enjoy the challenge...

Clever and slightly rude.

If this had been happening two weeks from now, I'd have Amarr Cruiser V trained.

Oh, what I would have done with THAT.

It was a good fight, although I felt a bit dirty using the Rook.

Now that I have some time, Ill give a brief AAR.

My fit:

In doing some KB research, I was fairly certain that Noragen would be flying a Gallente ship, and I fit my jams accordingly. Without the jamming rigs (that also lower shield HP) I was jamming at ST 13, very effective. Also knowing I would not have range problems, nor a need to use webs (as I brought RLM's), I elected to forgo the prop mod and scram/web.

What I should have done better:

Fit a MASB. This would have saved my ass. I knew drones would be a problem, but I also knew my own drones wouldnt out DPS an active tank if he decided to bring one in the event I fit smartbombs. ( The demios he mentioned would have laughed at me for days while he repped my meager drone DPS, albeit unable to target me...)

Stupidly, once his drones agressed me, I tried to kill them. According to my combat logs, I was beating the hell out of those geckos... but they didnt seem to get the message. I think if I had kept my DPS focused, it would have been MUCH closer, as he was about 1/4 into hull when I swapped all my damage to his drones. That was just bad on my part.

My errors were similar.

I wrote a pvp tutorial once in which I depicted the advantages and disadvantages of rep tanks and buffer tanks. Specifically, I stated that buffer tanks are better against unmitigated high damage and rep tanks are better against limited damage (like 1v1 or speed games)

I drove a buffer tank to the match with near certainty that it was a bad idea. Turns out, it was a bad idea.

Then I spent my efforts killing his drones... And even though I capped him out I was too far gone to revive it.

Mortlake played his cards better than I did and showed up wearing a better fit vexor for the task at hand.

I wish the remaining competitors luck.

Sounds like you guys didn't screw up as badly as I did. Conflag doesn't hit at all at 24 km. Sadly I didn't notice I wasn't hitting for far too long.

I also don't have much (read any) experience with cap management in a cap warfare situation, so I was not cycling modules in an effective manner, by the time webs and neuts landed though, the fight was already lost (see above with the conflag).

This is why I didn't get too creative and stuck to galente for the fight. I see I'm not the only one doing KB research before a fight so maybe I'll change things up a little for badman Blink.
