Bolo_Yeung Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) The common opinion on the forums is 'most matches are won/lost before the start'. So - I am posting a starting list here. No who can guess how will the match end? The Progenitor match: http://i58.tinypic.com/9riw68.jpg PS. For those who played that exact match - don't spoil Edited November 7, 2014 by Bolo_Yeung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danylia Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Alright I'll play. Empire has Urteon in Sting, Republic has Hachiman (who however is mostly veteran from pre 2.6 era, I haven't seen him much in the last months), the rest of names don't ring any bell. Republic only has 3 Gunships (yes, because they can't technically queue more than 3, but let's not derail the thread), so unless the Imperial 2-shippers will feed the gunships by beelining them (as they sadly often do, despite being told otherwise in chat), Urteon should be able to carry the team. 50:35 for Empire.

No who can guess how will the match end? The Progenitor match: http://i58.tinypic.com/9riw68.jpg PS. For those who played that exact match - don't spoil First glance : Balanced match. Second glance : Your team has six strikes one scout and one bomber, the opposing team has 3 sheeps and a healthy mix of scouts and strikes : Opposing teams score the first kill and will take a lead in the beginning before your few valuable pilots switches to scouts to counter them. Third glance : Your teams scouts are weak. Final... The ooposing team is more likely to win but the match is clearly open, I can't tell more without knowing the individual pilots.

Asbetos Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 The opposing team has Boreajuku on not-so-upgraded ships, the Empire has Urteon, so it depends on the rest of the team. I'd call it a tight win for the Republic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third glance : Your teams scouts are weak. Final... The ooposing team is more likely to win but the match is clearly open, I can't tell more without knowing the individual pilots. This. Based on the initial ship picks, your team seems to pose only a weak direct threat to the enemy gunships due to a lack of scouts beyond yourself or gunships of your own, while the ammount of strikes makes it seem your team might be easier to farm. However, without knowing the players I can't be certain that this will hold true. I think most players would see this start screen and expect it to be a farming race with so many two-shippers, though your posts hint of something less usual. Perhaps it ended in double defeat (i.e. draw)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolo_Yeung Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 The result was 46:39 for Reps. Gunship ball and a little too eager team on Imp side were deciding factors.. Anyway, pretty close answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolo_Yeung Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Another one. Again Harbinger... http://i62.tinypic.com/10r2sky.png Unfortunately I don't have later crew screenshoot, but Jaqo joined as 8th on enemy side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunewalker Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 From what I can tell this is a close Pub victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again Harbinger... http://i62.tinypic.com/10r2sky.png Unfortunately I don't have later crew screenshoot, but Jaqo joined as 8th on enemy side First glance : Their team have the advantage. Second Glance : Your team has a TensorPoint. Third glance : They didn,t field too much bombers. Your team get the lead with a smart Tensor Field. They counter with either bombers or gunships. Probably a match with a lot of sat switching. I say they won by less than 100 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firaxis_Amn Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hmm this match is from progenitor also I think. There is a lot of skill on the rep side so they won 1000 to 468....or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the assessment, a lot more skill on the Republic side. Another one. Again Harbinger... A bit of a mistake there?

Bolo_Yeung Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) A bit of a mistake there? Yep. Don't know, always getting Harbinger and Progenitor mixed up. That was Progenitor ofc - sorry for the mistake. http://www.podmrok.pl/gsf/329513.png The match ended with score 1000:132 After a succesful Tensor hijack Reps had 2 sats then took B. Around 500:3. the Imps took A after switching to GS/bomber combo, then (while A was heavily attacked then retaken by Reps - Imps got B and neutralized C for a while... however Reps quickly got B back and didnt allow C to fall... It certainly didnt look like it. Edited November 8, 2014 by Bolo_Yeung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolo_Yeung Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 The enemy team didnt score a single point (it was a trap ) I feel ashamed a little, but wanted to win the domination to 0 for once ... Anyway, looks like people aren't intrested in quiz, so I'll stop here. If anyone wants to give his/her own team screen for guessing, feel free to do it.
