Cracco Clan vs. Guru's of Proactive Warfare
Finally, the day came today. R3ptile already announced this to be the match of the week, and in my eyes it will also end up in the top 3 of the most interesting JJ2WC2 matches. Why? Because this is the first official encounter between the two senior JJ2 clans: the Cracco Clan (C-C) and the Guru's of Proactive Warfare (GpW) Both clans are over 5 years old and the last war was years ago. Well, let's see how the titans clash….
The excitement was huge already when the Pre-game server went up in the air, around 19:30 (all times are GMT +1) and many players from C-C and officials joined it. GpW however had only two or three people in the server (Urbs and Keleet). The general problem was that SuperJazz didn’t show up. Minutes passed by, but still no sign of him. Just when the time limit was 3 minutes passed and Urbs considered a forfeit loss, SuperJazz showed up (he couldn’t come because his sister was using the PC) and the day was saved. I immediately launched the server, first private, later public. After some fussing, the teams we're well divided and the match could start, at 20:30. 15 minutes over time.
Round 1
C-C = Vegito, Chiyu, Grytolle (blue)
GpW = Urbs, Keleet, SuperJazz (red)
Vegito from C-C directly captured the flag, and later GpW reacted. The first goal of the match took long to come, because both teams managed to keep alive for a very long time, and the backup positions by players at the enemy base were almost always excellent, however there were several flag gaps (moments in which a team didn't have the flag) The five minutes mark passed by, without any score. Many scoring possibilities came for C-C, with some huge gaps around minute 7. But nothing happened, and GpW managed to keep the flag in play. Right after the ten minute mark, C-C broke open the fame with two quick scores by Grytolle. Many kills followed each other up and after about 20 seconds the game returned to be stable. Then, Chiyu scored point 3, after 12 minutes. Things were starting to look darker and darker for the Gurus of Proactive Warfare.
After a time-out of about 30 seconds (Vegito crashed and had no teamchat) the game continued. At 14:30, another time-out came because Superjazz was away for a few seoncds. He was directly killed after his return. Keleet made the first goal for GpW after 16 minutes. More goals seemed to follow, but C-C didn't give in, and they kept the game stable. The game seemed to stabilize and not many kills were made during this period. C-C had the chance to score again at 19 minutes, but they didn't suC-Ceed.
The game was played, and all players agreed that this first round was a good game.
Results: 3-1 for Cracco Clan
Round 2
C-C = Yasco, Chiyu, Grytolle (red)
GpW = Urbs, Keleet, SuperJazz (blue)
The first round ended at 20:52 GMT +1, and the next round started a few minutes later. This time, C-C played as red and GpW as blue. C-C did a slight change in members (Vegito was replaced by Yasco) and GpW decided to game on with the same line-up.
After all players collected coins and stuff, the game started at exactly 21:00. GpW started with renewed hope, and they started quite good. Grytolle had some small problems in the beginning (stuck in wall) but after that the game started off smoothly.
GpW showed some better team play in the first minutes than in the first round, and every lost flag was quite soon recaptured. C-C scored the first point after 2.45 minutes (thanks to Grytolle) which was a lot sooner then the previous round. Quickly, a second goal for C-C followed scored by Chiyu, at 3.20 to be precise. Another short timeout at 4:40 because Keleet got stuck. Yasco, C-C's flag carrier, got a 3hk at 5.30 (one of the rare cases of lag during this game) but Chiyu quickly recaptured. C-C's team play remained still very good, as they also showed in the war versus the Total Freaks, a few weeks ago.
The minutes passed by, but no-one scored. It was similar to the first round, in which it took 10 minutes before the first goal was made. At 12.45, Chiyu scored the third goal for C-C. Internal struggles started to happen at GpW. A pause came at 13.37 (lol) because Urbs got stuck, and a small fight broke out in GpW: SuperJazz accsed Keleet for not reacting in teamchat. After the fight was over, SuperJazz scored for GpW at 14.25, the fourth goal in this round. C-C came back with a nice goal by Chiyu at 16.00, making the total 4-1 and the match total 7-2 for C-C. C-C even made a 5th goal at 19.10 by Gry.
The last minute was very hectical and hard to follow for an official like me, because the goals followed quickly. Grytolle made a sixth goal for C-C around 19.30, and Chiyu added cream to the pie by making a 7th goal for C-C in the last ten seconds of the game. It was a very good second round, with some more short breaks because many people got stuck in walls (this didn't happen during round 1)
Round Results: 7-1 for Cracco Clan
Closing comments
And so the clash of the titans ended in a smashing victory for the Cracco's. The final score was 10-2 for the clan lead by Chiyu, which proves again how strong the clan has grown recently. Beating GpW, which played really good despite the low score, will be counted as a crucial move and C-C proved with this match that they are one of the favourites for the first place of this tournament.
Final Score: 10-2 for Cracco Clan
