Match report by Calum:

1. Map (Gandalf choice)



This was probably the most annoying and stressful match yet. Before start there was a lengthy discussion about servers. Basically ccc wanted to force us to play on cK.NL because every other server (esp german) arent fair. Only that cK.NL was the worst server for us because sheano, exarto and me had constant packetloss on it. Surely that must be β€œfair” when 1 team plays with 3 out of 4 having constant packetloss on a server. For some reason we even agreed to play 1 map there. This later came to our regret because the constant packetloss had more of an impact to our playing than we had imagined. (sheano less than 20% shock and under 6000 damage on Rankin basically says everything about the server.)
So long story short, in the end we lost this map. No, not because ccc played exceptionally well on this map - they didnt, no offense. β€œThen how come Gandalf could lose Rankin against lo2dks team?”, you may ask.
The following picture says everything:




2. Map (ccc choice)



We switched to a different server after the packetloss-fest from before.
The final result of this map basically displays what Rankin would have been on a decent non-pl server. Team Gandalf was clearly dominating this map. ccc couldnt keep up with the frag power of Team Gandalf. Even though they sometimes managed to get some belt or amp, it didnt help much, as Team Gandalf was comfortably keeping a grip on this map.


3. Map



The decider map was Corrugation. A few minutes after start StyLeZ apparently had to go and was replaced by lo2dk. ccc did a better job than on Goose, but still lacking the frag power to overcome Team Gandalf on this map.
