Who would have thought? Nosfera, Mushu, and LiquidIntell put up excellent and very entertaining fights, but they''re headed home packing. The tactical Dustbot and the unknown Tailslide are headed to the championship. So, for tomorrow.. GameDev: Arena Championship:
  • Tailslide (3-1) vs. Dustbot (3-0) Eliminated:
  • Nosfera (2-2)
  • Mushu (1-2)
  • LiquidIntell (1-2) Here''s your new bracket: The championship match will be a best-of-5 format. Here are the results from today''s matches: Dustbot defeats Tailslide Match 1 Dustbot 25, Tailslide 0 1:41 remaining in the match Match 2 Dustbot 28, Tailslide 0 0:49 remaining in the match Comments: Oh my.. watching these two bots fight is very entertaining! Dustbot seems to have an edge with grenade placement and overall hit-and-run style tactics. Don''t count Tailslide out in the championship rematch, though! Tailslide defeats LiquidIntell Match 1 LiquidIntell 7, Tailslide 0 0:37 remaining in the match Match 2 Tailslide 54, LiquidIntell 0 2:11 remaining in the match Match 3 Tailslide 36, LiquidIntell 0 2:39 remaining in the match Comments: Tailslide must have still been cleaning his wounds in the first match because he came back strong to take the round. LiquidIntell showed courage, but couldn''t execute his gameplan very well with the trees. Nosfera defeats Mushu Match 1 Nosfera 71, Mushu 0 2:40 remaining in the match Match 2 Mushu 31, Nosfera 0 1:32 remaining in the match Match 3 Nosfera 77, Mushu 0 0:50 remaining in the match Comments: Nosfera decided to show up to the tournament in this round with a strong showing. Mushu put up a good effort, but trees were his second enemy in the arena. Tailslide defeats Nosfera Match 1 Nosfera 26, Tailslide 0 1:52 remaining in the match Match 2 Tailslide 100, Nosfera 0 2:16 remaining in the match Match 3 Tailslide 66, Nosfera 0 1:16 remaining in the match Comments: Tailslide seemed to want to give Nosfera a little hope after the first match. It was a slaughter in the last two. Kevin "Khawk" Hawkins

    Ouch!

    How am I going to get all those dents outta Tailslide now..

    Oh, come on, there has to be a 3rd place battle

    But anyway, Tailslide... nice job. Wasn''t expecting to win anyway. But you ain''t seen the last of me yet! (as this is my first time dealing with AI anyway )
