Div 2 just keep playing.

Today i have a massive amount of games from div2 to bring you.

D2 vs Zoo.
Zoo just keep on winning after their initial loss to oblivion. In this game the faced the poles in D2. They started out on cmt3 wich they have played alot lately and once again found themselves on top after 20min. This time without Tmoe JKova had to secure the top position and Gizmo made a strong debut. We also saw menthol playing for once. After this it was time for Polands national arena, dm2, but this time the poles didnt stand strong enough and the Zoo animals took a nice 2-0 victory.

SD2 vs Osams
Osams are still struggling in the bottom and this game didnt make it better. SD2 took a comfortavle 2-0 win on dm2/dm3 and never seem to be shaken in this one. I think SD2 have a good chance at the higher positions this season.

SD2 vs D2
SD2 also faced off vs D2 the past days and eventhough this game was much closer than their osams game they still won it 2-0 on dm2/dm3 once again. D2 has to start showing some skills if they want to avoid the lower part or even relegation to div3 next season. Plast also said "our secret plan to takeover div3 in eql3 is going well" after the game, so thats maybe what they are aiming for. ;)

Zoo vs Jokkmokk.
Here we have one of the topgames this season as these two teams had to make it into three maps to decide the outcome. Jokkmokk started out good and won dm2 with a very close margin but after this it was time for zoo and their infamous cmt3 wich went in one way traffic all the game. With both Jkova and Tmoe back for this one jmk couldnt put up much of a fight. Last map was e1m2 and the zoo train kept on rolling making the third map quite easy. It seems like jmk missed keyplayer mogge for this one and I think he could have mad an asset on e1m2 atleast to make that one much closer. However zoo are very strong right now and jmk should be glad to have taken one point from this game.

Luis vs Osams
Finally osams won a map eventhough gaz was disappointed afterwards as he thought they could have won this game. However luis are strong on dm2 and started out on that one with a crushing blow to osams and won by a large margin. For second map cmt3 got picked and it seems like osams learnt from the zoo game as they won this one with +100 frags. As third map they played e1m2 and the poles upset osams here by winning with a mere 20 frags margin showing that polish clans can win on e1m2 also. "Polski klan wygral e1m2"
Anyway nice to see both luis and d2 have started playing their games now.

FU vs Osams.
Osams continues to be punchbag of div2 and after this 2-0 result vs FU i have a hard time finding clans that osams could beat this season. FU made a strong performance and won dm3 kinda close vs a trailing osams. After this dm2 was played and osams couldnt put up much of a fight after really pushing it to the limit on dm3. Also FU are a strong team on dm2.

The season is turning out much as expected eventhough i so far have misjudged teams like LS and SSC. Only time and games will tell how this is going to end.

Im looking forward to LS vs OBV and LS vs ZOO

and what team will follow Osams to div3? will it be triad or SSC? maybe JMK?
I think SSC will fall down to div3 with Osams...(is Milton that important 2 them?)

#3 2006-01-19 11:26 by Hooraytio

seems like milton is that important

#4 2006-01-19 11:27 by menth0l

Loser Squadron in 2006! Mark my words.

#5 2006-01-19 11:30 by Haggis

Ls will be in the top for sure at the end, but not sure if they are ready for that precious nr1 spot just yet :)

Well, we have ryzzen, so div3 may be possible.

#8 2006-01-19 11:33 by gaz

Knowing the EQL system we will lose all relegation playoff games and end up in division 1.

#9 2006-01-19 11:34 by Hooraytio

hahaha gaz

#10 2006-01-19 11:34 by LILLD

sassa talking bull as usual =E
no further comments

#11 2006-01-19 11:35 by sassa

mm and not knowing the eql2 rules make you write something like that gaz!

#12 2006-01-19 11:46 by gaz

Your misunderstanding of my British irony means that you miss the joke Sassa ;)

Obviously nothing in EQL could ever happen where a team loses both promotion games and still gets promoted - that would be RIDICULOUS!

1. I would wish for some more match specific info. Who was the starplayer and did anyone do anything out of the ordinary? A bit of a match analysis etc. Don't have to be anything fancy, but a bit more juice than the current reports. If you have spectated a game then please share some of your thoughts on the teams TP, players, mistakes etc. :)

2. Osams aren't clueless in div2 even though they think so for now. Can't force clans to improve if they don't want to though. :F

3. Div3 sucks ass - make room for Veterans and our shadowed minions plz.

#14 2006-01-19 11:59 by gaz

We want to improve, and we are playing regularly. It's not helping much though! :)

#15 2006-01-19 12:14 by phrenic

I can't see ls run up against zoo (having top lineup), not oldiblidion, not jokkmokk, one player doesn't to a team if the name isn't mutilator :), osams almost got it to 3 games vs ls.

#16 2006-01-19 12:42 by Hooraytio

sorry but i dont have the time to spectate games atm Ake.

#17 2006-01-19 12:44 by Hooraytio

i rather look at the outcome and comment some on the current table

its not like anyone who is studying and have other things to do can play his/her own games AND watch like 3-4 games per week also...

but anyway, be my guest if you have the time for that ake

#18 2006-01-19 12:47 by menth0l

?ke Vader: It's highly unlikely that Horatio has time to spec all the games in div2, or that he even knows they are being played. I'm pretty lucky to be covering div1 since the games are so popular and i get the heads up.

#19 2006-01-19 12:48 by menth0l

I mean, obviously he wasn't wathing our game with jokkmokk or he would have said something about my stellar performance in e1m2.

#20 2006-01-19 12:49 by Hooraytio

If i was on social wellfare and the teams told me when they played then i would gladly spec them, i promise.

But there is really a shitload of games to be played in div2 8)

#21 2006-01-19 15:41 by ?ke Vader

Of course i realize that you don't have the time to spectate all games. But if you do happen to spectate some games etc.

#22 2006-01-19 16:47 by Hooraytio

sure
so far i havent been online or i have been playing eql/ladder games with chosen

#23 2006-01-19 18:10 by ?ke Vader

K, keep up the good work!
