"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

Sorry, but I fail to see the problem. I'm not saying this is a 'snide' way, I can't understand your point. Are Wi bad people or something? O_o

It's not a bad thing. It's just surprising as all hell.

No one saw this coming. I guarantee it.

You can't deny that Wi was playing great. And no, I didn't expect this, but I'm always open for suprises

And this suprise is quite funny.

Congratualations Wi!

Depends, what isle was the battle held on and were they on the home or away side...

I know Imperial is WAY wrong - during dodgeball last night when it got to VoD we were on the away side of the field (I think) and our NPCs PWNed theirs... Whichever one of the sides has stronger NPCs or something, all I know is that 5+ NPCs were still standing from our side when the Guild Lord finally came out and tho he was strong he couldn't take on that many.

I think the VoD for Imperial really needs to be examined cause one of the sides is way overpowered NPC wise. (Don't know why that is but whatever)

anything can happen at anytime in this game just because they are "evil" does not make them un beatable in any way shape or form. why anyone would think this is the biggest thing ever is beyond me lol

Well its definetly not because EvIL has won twice already and Wi shouldn't have even been in the playoffs to begin with.

They won the first GW World Championship. They came out on top in Season 1. It's only natural to assume they would keep up their winning streak--while it might have been their time to falter, I'm relatively certain that no one expected I Black Widow I--especially considering Wi wasn't supposed to be in the playoffs in the first place--would be the ones to beat them.

On the first EvIL vs Wi game, they failed to protect their NPCs from Nox's gank. That was bad, but at VoD they were still winning, until they made another bad call; sending Bloodlight Blade alone to recap the flag stand when all of Wi's NPCs and Gale/Water ele are there. That Morale boos Wi got then is what killed EvIL.

I was rather stunned with outcome of the EvIL and Wi match. You've got to admit though, Wi deserved it. Personally, I was glad to see EvIL lose. Not that I don't like them, I just wanted to see a change. Now the guild I support will truly have a chance.

Bring Back the Rifts, FTW! I hope they beat EW ^^
