Perhaps a silly question for BoB, and I didn't hear anything on it in the commentary, but here goes: Why when you started spreading fire didn't you start popping the maintanance drones to help break the tank? Or were you?

Originally by: Trevedian I bet ASCN wish they at least tried to push BOB back now after the pathetic attempt at 1v1 Railcrow fiasco...
But no one could beat ASCN's team kudos to them... But they left the match in the hands of someone who had no clue how to PVP in a ceptor...
Its 3 rocket launchers with a rail gun stuck in the last 4th spot. So give the guy some slack. It wasn't about rails, it was about range.

thanks to a bob member pointing out to all the fools that there is 4 highs 3 launcher 1 turret, and thus a rail is there as max offence ability. so the only factor in set ups as you say was range.
ps can you educate the comentators for the next tornerment so they have the basic nolage too.
nice battel well planed out to counter each other anded in a 1v1 so not a lot you can say to that other than enjoy the new toys.

Yes, its a rocket crow setup with a 125mm rail in the 4th slot. Its not some retarded railcrow setup people are whining about, and imagining it to be. -------------------------------

Congrats to BoB. That semi-final match will probably be the talk of this Tourney. Aside from Eve TV being brand new at what they did and I thought it was awesome.
Also, I thoought IFNI was the best analyst as far as neutrality could go. He did a great job of commenting.
Great job everyone! _________________________

I've been preaching the importance of anime, and kayo the importance of cat girls for a long time. It is a powerful combo. Stavros saw the power long ago, if only he didn't stop playing
Truly proud of you Kayo! Just try not to scare everyone away with your ego.
Btw, itÆs ôKai-yo-so-neeö not ôKay-yo-so-neeö and if kayo tries to correct me, donÆt listen to him, he doesnÆt know what heÆs talking about.

Congratulations to BoB and ASCN on getting through to the Finals and of course Congratulations to BoB on winning the competition. Well played to all the teams that entered and fought !
I know you all kept me up to 6am a few nights watching the live streams (Aussie times suck for EVE) and it peaked my interest in PvP :) ----------

Those semi-finals were absolutely fantastic, FTW to the all Gallente team ASCN. It brings a tear to my eye to see them play! I think if BoB didn't have the Huginn, then things would have been pretty messy for them in the final. Congrats anyhow! I still think they should make it a Battleship 1on1 in the future... -----------

I dont think so, I think ASCN made a mistake of waiting for BoB instead of coming to them: They were close range and BoB was long range, meaning to ASCN the distance didnt matter regarding their ability to tank. Therefore, they had 30 (!) mins total to close up 50km gap, So they should have been going slowly towards the BoB team, and if needed, send in one of the frigates (we saw they dont die anyway) to web one of their key ships, and then close in with the rest.
But I guess their commander wasnt smart enough for that, or didnt think wise to fit at least one webber on one of the frigs since they all were blasters... ------------------ Tired of fleet combat lag? -Post HERE

Congrats BoB!
While disappointed with the entertainment value of the final, I can see how it turned into such a stalemate. ASCN approaching BoB would've been suicide with the huginn undoubtedly having it's webbers primed. Maybe BoB could've approached ASCN and drive them out of the Arena, but I doubt they'd have fallen for that.
At least the inty fight was over quickly Glad that didn't end up in watching 2 crows orbiting eachother for another 10 minutes.
Have to say that ASCN did a good job too, tanking BoB's dps wasn't easy, and the urge to try and get in there guns blazing must have been hard

Audrea - that would have been the end of the frig, any ship that went more that 10K away from the main group would have died v quickly... They had to move as a group or not at all!
But I do agree it was very lame to just sit there take it... but oh well...GG to all

Yeah true, what I meant is that ALL their ships move together in the speed of the slowest one, and if needed, one frig could go out to web their primary while the rest approach.
The repair drones would have been enough to hold out for that long I think.. depends how many drones they had. ------------------ Tired of fleet combat lag? -Post HERE

The frig had to be in the distance of maintenance drones, cap transfer and armor rep, that's why they had to move as one unit i.e. at the speed of the slowest ship. And it was not lame. They had their strategy, BoB had their. Both strategies worked well. The fact that ASCN didn't get to press F1,F2,F3... is not making them lame. After all, BoB made no effort to try out something to actually break the tank. No one wanted to lose, that's why no one tried some unconventional risky moves.
As for the inty duel.
1) CCP should rematch it with both pilots having autoreject on. 2) those who spammed pilots with convos should enjoy a nice perma-ban on their accounts. 3) too bad ASCN didn't expect that BoB will actually pull their ceptor setup off ASCN own killboard, why they couldn't do the same, or at least think about this happening.

As for the inty duel, it would make no difference tbh. Any number of rematches in the same ships with the same pilots would give the same result. If you think that changing the setups should be allowed, you are not asking for a rematch, you are asking for a second chance.

tbh, and i mean this with respect, it was pretty "lame" (lame being a valid tactic) for BOB to field the huginn. They must have watched our match against ASCN and saw that with a torp raven (5/2 torp/cruise), a 720 gankish sleipnir and a cerberus we couldnt break the tank on the deimos or the eos. How they expected to do it with a 7 cruise CNR and a gang modded Vulture i have no idea
The problem was, both teams played the "no matter what we arent going to lose" strategy (pretty much like what SMASH did and got slated for) which led to a complete stalemate. If props go to anyone it should be ASCN for fielding something of a different setup to the usual and a display of good teamwork, no matter how boring it was
Oh and please change the decider for next time. Arranged inty duels are so crap its not funny and something better (though i cant think what) should have been used to wrap up what has been an awesome tournament

I'm not asking for setup change. I know ASCN made a mistake with their setup and would lose again. But as ASCN crow was sorter range it had to do more manuevering (sp) and in that case those convos influenced him more. It would only be a fair play game without all those tards spamming convos.

Congrats to BoB and ascn, some nice fights.
I kind of think do with the rules at hand, the only two viable options to win where a missile/tank setup are an uber tank setup. Rails, arties are long range lasers just don't have the damage i think and would have trouble if the others would come close range, for close range blasters, autocanons, nosses and lasers the webifier bonus ships take care of that. Maybe ascn could have used a webifier ship to but well they just would still crawl to eachother. Maybe with ecm allowed we would see different setups in the finals.
All in all i really enjoyed it.

So you admit that alltho you had a dmg oriented team, you still lost to ASCN's tank team. BoB had the brains AT LEAST to counter their dmg, yet you call them lame.
Bitter, anyone?
