Since dominion, with it's beyond awesome faction ship changes, there has been a lot of discussion of whether or not some of them are overpowered, especially the Angel Cartel ships. I was looking forward to the tournament, hoping that their power would be proven to be "over" or as nicely balanced as some of us feel they are.
Red.Overlord vs Erebus alliance in the last match of day 1 was the most decisive victory i think this tournament has ever seen. 3 Machariels, 3 Dramiels and 3 Daredevils completely flattening the opposition in 137 seconds with little difficulty. naturally, in the threads that popped up immediately after, several people were screaming "NERF!". But on day 2, we saw several more Machariel based fleets fielded. some did good, and some, like i.e Star Fraction vs TORMENTUM got knocked of their high horses and into an embarrassing death by your bog standard tournament ECM + Missile spam fleet.
tldr: my top 2: ROL vs Erebus Alliance - Machariels rule Star Fraction vs TORMENTUM - Machariels are as vulnerable as any ship

For me it has to be the Own alliance vs G0dfathers, alot of people had Own alliance for the win, but excellent use of Bombs at the start of the match made it a convincing win from the get go.

Not exactly the best, but I do believe Old Intentions vs. Ushra'Khan deserves a mention for being the bloodiest match so far...only two surviving ships on the field in the end.
Also, The G0dfathers deserve some praise for a damn near perfect bombing run against OWN Alliance.

Glad you liked our fight Kilani :-).
It was a nice fight, we killed all the slaves but some betrayers from the caldari side managed to save their game.
Actually it was not the bloodiest fight, the Hydra fight had only one ship remaining, but that wasn't really a fight but more a sharade...
I wish Hydra a good fight in the next round :D

Edited by: Smagd on 07/06/2010 16:10:22 I'll go for Agony Empire vs. HYDRA.
It was only the second match, so the sexiness of that HD stream was still fresh in my blood.
Then it was a perfect game not even losing a single glass canon.
And what it'll keep it memorable over the years to come was the several levels of pwnage that followed AFTER winning:
- Ransoming for points, which is a tournament first I believe. - Gaming the rules, by understanding it's not the win that takes you to the finals, but the points. - Trolling the entire audience. I'm fairly sure nobody actually paid the ransom, but who knows? ... I'm still chewing that one. 2 days after the match!
And the part I like best: - Promising to bring a REALLY, REALLY high DPS team for the second round. Because they're going to need it.
I love DPS.

Electus Matari for that Sleipnir. Red Overlord for those Machs. The Ronin for that awesome Gallente setup - if even one ship had had a smartbomb and cleared the logistics drones, it would have been an entirely different ball-game. Snatch Victory vs. Space Police - for losing in what should have been a certain win.
And last, but biggest upset: Star Fraction vs. Tormentum - a setup that had 3 ships worth more than the entire opposing team getting completely shut down. I thought Star Fraction had it completely won - Sabres to kill the bombers, Machs to destroy the Rooks. I was close to paying up on a bet I made with a corp member, who was gloating from the start. Brilliant match.

Huzzah vs The Ronin for sure! The Ronin were just pure awesome, and I never thought a tripple Mach team could fail without a single ship killed! (We're speaking Tier 1 Battlecruiser here, a BRUTIX for christs sake!! And being owned by a RAILGUN team, RAILGUNS!!!)
Huzzah vs Ronin ---------

Got to echo Huzzah vs R0nin. In a weekend full of fast paced matches and instagib setups, this was a solid tactical performance and a well played out victory against a vastly more expensive fleet.
Will gladly watch again, along with many other matches from this first weekend. --------------------------------------

Honourable Templum of Alcedonia lost to WE FORM VOLTRON Why? Because of the FCing. The choices the Voltron FC made were excellent, and I'll try to explain.
Small ships go after small ships, while battleship DPS goes on different primary The DPS from the small ships wouldn't add much to the battleship DPS, and the DPS from the battleships would be wasted on the small ships. With the web bonus to the Bhaalgorn, the small ships didn't need to tackle targets for battleships to prevent tracking problems. Also, having multiple targets receiving damage makes life harder on the logistic pilot.
Target order
- Curse: this ship could cause both issues with tracking and cap for the battleship DPS, so taking this out early.
- Tengu: this ship shield tanks, so the armor reps from the Guardian will not be effective and it will die quickly
- Guardian: to be able to take down armor tankers quickly and because it is within range, take it down
- Hurricane: this ship needs no cap to fire, so neuting it with Bhaalgorn is ineffective
- Harbinger: softest 'heavy' target left
- Absolution: probably neuted to hell, so pretty easy kill without receiving much damage
- Kill off small ships
Looking back, it might seem obvious to do it this way, but when you're in the driving seat, it's much harder to think that clearly. Most of the FCs in this tournament have made mistakes, from small to huge, but I cannot find any fault with Voltron's strategy. Well done, and a joy to watch. _____________________________________

I say hydra. They were like the harlem globe trotters. Constantly making their opponent and the crowd (and maybe even the ref) wonder what the heck was going on.

I don't really have a list of top 10, but a few that stood out for me
* Hydra vs Agony - Instant classic. * ROL vs Erebus - A great curb stomp, it reminded me of the Manifest Destiny v Pandemic Legion match from AT7. Not as awesome, but still it was the best beat down of the first week. * Star Fraction failing - Was just hilarious. * Dystopia vs MM - It was pretty suspenseful. I mean, to the untrained eye it seemed as though we were going to get taken to the 0wnzone. But countless hours of practice and preparation paid off. * Ivy League vs SOLAR - Three Vindis was p cool

I think it was my 7% gunnery implant to laserz that actually turned the tide of that fight and the sheer toughness our teamed showed by playing through the injuries.
