It is hilarious to see how far off everyone is in Div. B. Waaaaay over estimating BPB and AOD. BPB may end up in last here. We are looking at somewhere between 14-4 and 12-6 to push them further down. AOD was a big shock. Our 17-1 set really set them back. No one gave enough credit to Myth or Devils Brigade who both were tough as hell and battling it out for 2nd place.

From my point of view, 3 months of premium isn't nearly motivating enough.

There is a 4 game gap between you and the last place teams (2 are tied). You are losing your last set by at least a 6 game spread. If those two clans, who are playing one another, split, you will be in last. I didn't say you will be, just that you may end up in last.

Once again do your research, we still have games against both AoD and mythology that haven't been finished and are close to wins.

no there are less doubles as its not a good indication of clan strength...a majority of the clan world feel that trips and quads are a better representation...maybe your cla rep should of spoken up about it ;)
imo it should just be evenly split between dubs trips and quads...they are all team games ffs.

Just some stats for you Owen

BPB in Clan League Games

Doubles 10 wins 10 losses (mikiesdios and Superrag 5 wins and 7 loses)
Trips 7 wins 17 losses
Quads 15 wins and 16 losses

I agree they are one of the best dubs teams I have ever played, I don't see how the changes affected you very much, as you were .500 in doubles games. Granted some games are ongoing and these will change a little, but I don't think it will affect much.

Or maybe you should just wait until the League is over, which should be soon, right? I am uninformed... :oops:

lol the 2 best doulbes players on the site is not a fact but an opinion and a pretty biased one at that. Also not really sure how you can justify this statement when they went 6-9 in the CL3. Either way, there has been a shift in the clan world to more trips/quads and thus the clan league adjusted as well not sure how you view this as people trying to handicap you. Did this hurt you, yes it probably did but if you were a great clan you would be able to adjust to the newer trends of clan competition.

Lol, nice to see that two of us Nemesis guys are in 3/4 and the main reason for that is because Nem actually fell behind so much in the predictions :lol:
So either we should have been more conservative, or just played better :oops:

Now can I say it? And my statement was well researched then. You will be tied for last with AOD in Div. B, which surprises everyone including me. As for the Mikie/Rag discussion, seems like they did not do as well as they were supposed to. I played them in 2 dubs in this. We won both, and I am admittedly not a good dubs player. I guess we got lucky.

I wish I knew myself, I guess I put it down to busyness but still you would expect better than that. Every week was terrible, every single one of them.

We have yet to do well in the CLA really :cry: I have no idea why, but I don't think the format fits well with how we play, whatever that means :?
I guess we'll just keep doing well in wars and work from there instead.

We did poorly in seasons 1 and 2. We always knew we were better than our results, but we didn't take it seriously like we would a challenge. This year was different. I know Nemesis is top notch, especially after the big win against Legion. I'm looking forward to seeing your next big clan win.

I have a strong feeling that this is how we are taking things as well, just not very seriously.

The ass-whooping you all gave us in the Cup put us into gear. We've been flying high since, and we've got plenty of fuel. I don't see us slowing down any time soon. We lost two of our best during this Season for at least one of the rounds, but we have more than enough depth and chemistry right now that we are comfortable putting anyone forward anywhere right now (hence the all-random map challenge). It's our time now. :D
