There's plenty of teams that lost to, on paper, stronger teams.

Hydra (tournament favourite) lost to Templis CALF in the first round, PL (last year's runner-up) lost to The Initiative, Thermodynamics and A Band Apart got knocked out of the tournament by Brave Newbies, Lazerhawks is currently on the Royal Road in the winners' final, Pen Is Out is on the Royal Road in the losers' semifinal.

Tuskers (last year's winners) play Hydra next weekend, then my team plays the winner of that. PL got knocked out of winners bracket by Initiative, who we then promptly smashed to bits. Pretty much everybody expected us to get knocked out immediately, but here we are sitting at at least 5th place. Everyone was looking forward to Tuskers/PL/Hydra/skill for top 4, but as it stands that's not happening.

WAFFLES went down first round and out third.
Rote Kapelle went down third round and out fourth.
Phoebe Freeport Republic went down first round and out third.
V0LTA went down third round and out sixth.
R0NIN went down second round and out fifth.

Most of the big, expected top 8 teams got knocked to losers and took each other out. Meanwhile a bunch of "nonames" are cruising around winners.

hydra is half a team
there are 10, maybe 15, people in PL who give enough of a shit about the AT to practice*
band apart have never strung a good run together

*also those 10-15 are missing almost all the key players from previous years

Found this familiar name on the PUBG subreddit and checked out his post
https://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/2017/08/how-to-get-to-top-05-in-pubg-without.html

"This is the most important thing to take away from this: those at the top aren't better than you, they just know some trick that you don't. If you learn it, you can be just where they are." He says as he explains his 0% winrate strategy...

I can't imagine how boring pubg is if you actively try to avoid fighting other players the whole game, but then again its gevlon

I'm gonna repost some recent AAR's I originally posted in our (Tuskers') recruitment thread on the EVE-O forums.

Curse: Velsharoon (he was an applicant at the time, but later withdrew his app) was out on his own picking fights with Pandemic Horde who was staged in the area. As a fleet formed, he called for support, and we brought an Oracle and an Orthrus to compliment his Phantasm. The Horde kitchen sink gang warped in piecemeal, landing at both the gate and various wrecks from a previous fight. Some amazing anti-support work kept tackle off my Oracle which was free to blap anything within 70km.

Fade: We tackle a Myrmidon on a gate. At this point we have three people out in null. A Nidhoggur with very light support enters the field, at which point we start calling for support. We lose tackle and it exits the field, but for some reason it warps back in, at which point additional tackle from our side enters, and we manage to secure tackle. More subcap support warps in, and as the Nidhoggur enters structure, a HAW Revelation and an Apostle is cyno’d in. The Apostle never triages, however, so the Nidhoggur eventually dies before the Rev is able to clear enough dps. We pull range because the the damage and projection of the Rev is too oppressive to get tackle on any more capitals.

Catch: Some guys were out roaming and had their return-gate camped by BRAVE. They called for anti-support, and anti-support is what they got. We proceeded to shed tackle, pick off isolated targets, repeat.

Querious: Glasi, our content creator extraordinaire, tackled a Rorqual three jumps from our exit in Querious and we rageformed a heavy shield gang. As the Rorqual entered low structure, the locals warped in a Caracal and rail Hyperion fleet. As the Caracals went up in flames a Revelation jumped in next to the Rorqual, but the Hyperion fleet moonwalked out almost immediately afterwards.

Really great video.

I wish I could fly stuff like that, but my fine motor issues with a topper of nerve damage limit me to over hear dual rep type brawly stuff and f1 stuff.
