Free BBQ? Err. I mean. Yeah.
I'm not a parent, so I still have this residual thing where I view larval humans as potential meals.
It's wrong, and I'm not sorry.

Gf! I'll post the vid here as soon as I'm done playing with editing and making it look half as cool as Bronson's
I was really hoping the guy combat probing us near the middle would show up in something decent and we could collect another KM. That would have made things interesting. The randomly decloaking Astero was disappointing :P
My only regret is the dolls didn't drop.  |

It appears that out first round is complete. Congratulations to the winners, and best of luck to those less fortunate in the loser's bracket.
I am working on compiling a fill accounting of all of the Tunderdome matches to date: the standalone matches, the Plex for Good matches, and the July bracket. I will be including killmails, videos, and after action reports as available. Given the repeated emphasis on how much people have been learning from these fights, I figured it only right to share the collective wisdom with the community.
One last word to the winners of the first round: HTFU, I await you in the battlecruiser round and am unavailable this weekend....

Here's the vid of Lan and I in Uplingur.
The quality and editing is extremely meh. I spent very little time editing it and messed some stuff up, but its just a piece of footage, anyway.

that phantasm is super fast, only chance i had was when you pulled over 150km range then i could warp to you (but you got wise to that), even then i could only get like 1 volley then you were out of range again, first time flying a gila so was an experience
wish i fitted damps instead instead asb's, was fun all the same good piloting man

That was an educational fight. I've never seen Gila drones drop that quickly before. Also, lots of good piloting and judicious use of overheat and repair. I had considered warping to Domino on a few occasions during our fight, but I managed to close range without doing it. (There's no rule against it, I was just saving it as a last resort.)
I like how folks keep little trophy items. I had a copy of the Hull Tanking:Elite certificate in my old when using my VNI, then I started keeping a Fedo and some spiced wine. May have to switch it up for the next one.

I guess its trial and error, future matches i will certainly fit something to my ship to counter this sort of thing ;)

Every ship and fit has a counter. The real reason behind my success isn't that I'm an exceptional pilot, I just seem to be very good at picking ships that my opponent is unlikely to counter.
VNI counter: Kitey active rep ship, a bigger brick.
Gila counter: Anything that can web/kill drones.
Orthrus counter: Damps, tackle, cap warfare.
It would have been really interesting to pit my VNI build, which had 3x damps but relied mainly on heavy drones, against my Orthrus build, which was vulnerable to damps but fast enough to outrun heavy drones.

I will be unavailable from Friday through Tuesday for the next two weeks (so, only Wednesday and Thursday). To quote the immortal Lumbergh, if Noragen and Tengu could get on with it pronto, that would be great....

Bummer, but understood.
Tengu, you available to fight tonight or tomorrow night? I'd EvE-mail you but CCP went and broke EvE so the forum-based mail client is down...

There's the possibility of me being available tonight but I'm not %100 sure. I will certainly try for it. I'd say I'll eve mail you if I know for sure, but lol.
I still have no idea what I'm going to fly... I was hoping Noragen and I could get our match in so I'd have some more time to think about it if I won, or wouldn't have to worry about it if I lost.

I hear ya. My previous posting bravado aside, I'm not in a huge rush, especially with the current server shenanigans; I just figured I'd try to knock this out quick since I know you and I are only a few TZs apart.
Leto encouraged us to think outside of the box and I finally took him up on it. I took two different "things" and crammed them into one hull not really meant to do either of them and it will either win gloriously or fail fantastically. Part of me hopes you win just for the utter LOLmail this ship's loss would generate.

I have been away from game for a bit due to some travel and am dissapointed I missed this bracket. I will not miss the next. If Bronson wins again its all the more incentive for me to participate.

Bronson and I managed to meet up for our fight.
He's processing the video right now, so I won't spoil the results.
Gf though.
p.s. BC round is TOTALLY different ball game. |

Confirming that Thunderdome in battlecruisers is a whole new ballgame.
Here's the video.
And for the impatient, the killmail.
Good fight man. Rock paper scissors all the way in this round.

I admire your determination sir. Hopefully we'll see each other on the battlefield again. Fighting you in a frigate would be...interesting....
With that said, I will be AFK from this evening on for about two weeks with the exception of next Wednesday. It looks like there's enough fighting to happen in the meantime that my absence shouldn't hold things up.
Good hunting.
