Here's my 70th Splinterlands Guild Brawl Report for PIZZA 2 The Deep Dish. 🍕⚔️🛡️
Wow! Battles submitted on time and Battle Report is perfectly inline before the start of the next brawl too! 😁 This must be a good week for me. I usually am so swamped with things that I can barely squeeze out the time for everything to proceed as planned.
It's the ✨🏅✨Gold Foil Chaos Legion Fray no.12✨🏅✨ for the 53rd week in a row for me.
The table below shows my accumulated tally of battles in Fray 12 since I first took it up 😁. 📊📊📊
| Current Tally for the past 52 brawls | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Battles⚔️ | Wins✅ | Losses❌ | Draw➖ | Overall Win % ⚖️ |
| 155 | 92 | 58 | 5 | 59.35% |
My win percentage is recovering, albeit not as fast as I would like it to. Unfortunately, the crippling loss of several matches due to me having forgot to enter those battles a few weeks ago are still taking their toll on me. 😅 I'll just have to continue grinding it out - with positive results too of course.
As promised, I bought 2 gladius packs upon reaching the 4k MERITS as expected after the latest brawl. However, my pack opening luck is still as dismal as ever in this new year. 😭💔🍀 I got the bare minimum of 2 rares with no gold foils of any sort at all.
🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻🍀 Fingers crossed for a Gold Foil (Legendary!!!) I hope 🤣🤑 for my future Gladius packs. (or any packs/rewards chest for that matter 😉)
As usual, I make an extra effort to rent ✨Gold Foil Chaos Legion✨ cards that align with my daily focus during Guild Brawl days.
Hopefully Lady Luck continues to shine on me 🍀🍀🍀 and I don't get too many weird ruleset combinations which will completely screw up my limited Gold Foil selection of cards. (🤣 yeah, that's how terrible I am, to have to rely on luck for my wins)
Some thoughts I have about my exploits in the Gold Frays. 💭🤔
I feel like I'm winning because my opponent has even less Gold Foil cards available to him than I do. Personally, I find it slightly flattering to me. The teams I field are definitely not the absolute strongest, but more of what is available to me.
It also doesn't account for HOW I win some of the fights though. I've realised that a fair number of them are from opponents who just gave up and did not even face me in battle. ⚔️⚔️⚔️
My choice of picking up the Gold Foil frays is to simply give the Guild a better chance at accumulating more wins, seeing especially that IN THE PAST, many Gold Frays were left empty. Even if I were to lose everything and win just 1 match, it would definitely help in securing a better finishing position overall. 🥇🥈🥉
With all that said, lets FINALLY get down to a review and quick analysis of my battles 🧐⚔️🛡️, or in some cases where my opponent fled 🏃🏻💨 - non battles 😨.
⚔️🛡️Let the Battles Commence⚔️🛡️
LOST.
Despite the opponent having 2 Gold Foil Legendaries in the form of Grum Flameblade and Carnage Titan, this was actually a much closer battle than even I'd expected. Had my Silent Shavi not have missed twice in a row, I would have had enough DPS to take down the opponent.
Alas, my brave underdog fight was not to be. I lost by the slightest of margins. Just 1 more hit and it would have been my battle instead. 😭
WON.
This was an easy win for me. I definitely fielded the far superior team. With poison rulesets, the toughest and beefiest units are the ones with the edge. My team selection was all about meatshields and the poison basically did most of the heavy lifting for me. 🎉
WON.
Our lineups might have looked somewhat similar in this semi mirror matchup. We both used General Sloan as our summoner, and employed the Chaos Knight as our main tank. Both of us also picked the Portal Spinner and Pelacor Arbalest in our team.
The choice of our other units ultimately proved to be the difference though. In the end, I edged out the opponent with my more offensive team choice and secured the win.
WON.
This was yet another superior team that I managed to put out against my opponent. My Chimney Wallstop was a beast here with him managing to secure 3 out of 5 kills for multiple bloodlust activations. He even scored a double kill in one of the rounds thanks to the BLAST ruleset.
The result wasn't ever in doubt and it was a resounding and crushing victory. 🎉
📊📈📉My Overall Results📊📈📉
3 WINS, 1 LOSS.
This was another good performance from myself this week. I was slightly disappointed not to have scored a perfect run of wins. That one loss to RNG dodges was really quite bad luck in my opinion. At least this goes somewhat to pulling up my overall score again? 🤣
I feel it's important that Guilds are able to fill out all the frays - even the significantly "harder" Gold ones. It is very likely that most guilds (at our level) skip the Gold frays completely, or are unable to even field a team if they've got no Gold Foil Summoners. This therefore leads to a better overall score.
🥇🥈🥉Final Standings🥇🥈🥉
PIZZA 2 Guild managed to finish in 3rd place! 🏆🏆🏆
This was a really tough week. First place was way ahead of everyone else and there was no way anyone could realistically catch them. However, we also didn't quite manage to fill up all the brawl slots, with only 9 people taking part. That being said, given the numbers handicap, we did reasonably well to have had secured a spot on the podium. 🎉
On a sidenote, we've still got some unfilled frays too so...
BTW, PIZZA 2 is recruiting 😜 and looking for active players who can commit to attending every single guild brawl. Do hop into the PIZZA DISCORD if anyone is interested (or knows someone who is).
Great Job from everyone who took part in the Guild Brawls! I'm proud of you all! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
