Ladies and gentlemen of C&P, we have a real nailbiter of a Thunderdome match here! Lodestone and I duked it out in Amarr tonight and even though the match wasn't a long, drawn out slugfest like some of the past matches has been, it was incredibly close, I would say so close as to be luck of the draw.
The video is here.
For those of you who are suspense-limited, the killmail is here.

That was a pretty good fight indeed! Brutix navy wasn't something I expected, and I kinda panicked when the neut hit. Thinking it was a race against time before you capped me out and my guns stopped, I overheated to my doom. :P
Best of luck to you in the BS bracket! ;D |

God... I thought for certain that you had him. If you hadnt burnt out... and maybe a bit more range control... that one was CLOSE.

Lode had my hopes soaring high above the clouds only to drop me like a rock It was a good watch from both sides. Lode next time your rails on either end likely didn't burn out so split the guns. Not that I have burnt out my rails b4...
Also that was amazing lode. I was in awe of how close you came to finally toppling that lucky bastard

Yeah, I should have taken the time to properly try to exploit the Ferox's optimal bonus. My main worry at the start was his active tank. I was worried he was dual-rep, which would be a perfect counter to me. The only way I could manage range was to use the MJD, and my projection at 105 km is only 260 dps, which probably would not have cracked his active tank.
As he dropped into structure just outside of scram range I got greedy. :/
I was thinking about my midslots too much, and I think I did an okay job there, but forgetting the most important part.
Next time I just need to stick to my guns. :D

This sums up what I'm feeling at the moment, taken from an in-game chat that included Lodestone, Noragen, and Tengu (and others):

I have lost!
Immortalist did a great job. I tried but unfortunately wasn't enough.
I also accidently warp off grid as I was about to die. But I warped back to allow the kill.
Hope that doesn't disqualify
(Edit) I can upload a vid. But honestly it's not very exciting. Let me know if you want

Good fight! Sorry for bringing a rather boring strategy, but I promise to make up for it in the BC fight 
EDIT: Also yeah, Valkin shouldn't be disqualified for warping out since he fixed the issue and came back. All in all its a good reflex (spamming the warp button) to have in almost all of eve pvp. |

From what I've seen from thunderdome matches so far. Not being confined to point ranges really opens the door for the faster kitting ships into supremacy. Points put a very neat limit on PvP that all thought I recognized never really fully saw how they truly affect more traditional pvp

Yeah, it is definitely a knee-jerk reaction to get out. But you came back and took the loss, so the spirit of intent is there.
Also, the bracket but you against Omar next. I thought it was us too...

This gives me some time to learn a new aspect of the game and you the opportunity of much amusement at my expense
