Dear Enforcer: Grip and Tip Yo Keyboard
Another MLG event played out over the weekend. By all accounts a fantastic tournament and huge grats to Realz’ SK-US team for pulling off a win. I caught a few of the Saturday matches (including the RLS mirror1 between EG and fnatic, pretty interesting even if both teams played kinda flat) but I’m eagerly awaiting the VoDs being posted so I can see the whole thing. Vhell is still an awesome commentator.
There’s coverage of the various days all over the place including Gameriot (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), Gotfrag (Saturday, Sunday) and WowInsider (Saturday). As usual, Radikal has some entertaining opinions.
I’m not sure you can take anything meaningful from the results regarding class balance since it’s a really tiny sample size. Still: buff paladins. Payce is a total beast and their team did do pretty well, but I don’t want to have to play some horrible PHD team to be successful. It’s worse than cleave, really.
Unrelated: is Paladin/DK supposed to beat Shaman/Ret? That matchup makes me rage more than Rogue/Shaman vs Warrior/Druid.
1 I’ve decided my favourite RLS mirror strat is go on the rogue, because then instead of the game being decided based on which rogue can kill a warlock faster, it’s mostly decided by how well your shaman can lock down (see what I did there) an opposing warlock and avoid CC as well as how quick your bloodlusted warlock can backdraft chaos bolt somebody into oblivion. And my shaman/warlock will crap all over yours :]
