#Fafnir vs GreaterLonginus
Dragon KO 1-0
Spriggan KO 1-1
Dragon OS 2-1
Spriggan KO 2-2
Dragon KO/OS (I dunno but spriggan might’ve hit the back wall before dragon outspun) 3-2
#Fafnir wins!
Spriggan didn’t have enough weight to make rise move, (rise usually is more stable with heavier beys for me) and whenever it started to ride the ridge dragon kinda just stone walled it. The 2 KO’s it got were from the ridge ride 1 time, and recoil KO the 2nd time. Dragon basically was just too heavy. There was one round where dragon had 2/3 clicks.
UnseenBurst vs TheRogueBlader
Yeah UnseenBurst kinda destroyed me 3-0 with outspins. It’s due to master+drifts LAD and defense plus the fact that it’s opposite spin and less recoil is happening in general. Something like judgment would probably KO easier, I just use eclipse because I don’t have judgement and I’m comfortable with it. Damn you drift.
UnseenBurst wins!
#Fafnir vs Random Combo
Dragon OS 1-0
Dragon KO 2-0
Dragon KO 3-0
Ok so yeah dragon basically bullied Union just like my Genesis did. Side note, dragon 2 with imperial is insanely tight, at least for imperial
#Fafnir wins!
GreaterLonginus vs UnseenBurst
Draw
Longinus OS 1-0
Longinus OS 2-0
Draw
Longinus OS 3-0
Yeah this match was really close, but it basically came down to wether spriggan would tilt over too much and Longinus would OS, or spriggan wouldn’t tilt and they’d draw
UnseenBurst wins!
#Fafnir vs TheRogueBlader
Genesis OS 0-1
Genesis OS 0-2
Genesis Self KO 1-2 (yes self KO’s count)
Dragon OS 2-2
Dragon OS 3-2
Damn you imperial and your good stamina. The first 2 rounds were outspins by me because destroy got tilted off balance and scraped in the Freespin rings driver and expand. Then I self KO’d. Then the 4th and 5th battle played out the same but dragon was in the center first and obviously outspun me. So from what it looked like, if I ran out of spin fast and kinda spun in the center, dragon would destabilize. But other times I wasn’t able to take center and that didn’t happen. Very interesting for an extreme combo. Huh.
#Fafnir wins!
GreaterLonginus vs Random Combo
Union OS
Union OS
Union KO
As I said earlier, rise tends to do better on DB beys that are heavier and stuff, cho-z spriggan was not very stable and just seemed to lose stamina very fast. When the ridge riding technique played out, Union hit it from the side and kind of knocked spriggan out of control to KO
Random combo wins!
UnseenBurst vs Random Combo
Random Combo BST (0-2)
Longinus gets 3 clean OS’s
Yeah, that 1 burst was so loud I couldn’t hear anything for like 3 seconds. Union bounced around like twice and it hit the Longinus combo SO HARD THAT MASTER LONGINUS JUST SLAMMED INTO THE SICD OF THE STSDIUM, CAME BACK IN, AND DRAGON BURST IT. It was just like a winged launch in the anime but faster and much louder. Wow! But yeah it’s a leftspin drift vs right spin Octa so obviously Longinus won
UnseenBurst wins!
UnseenBurst vs #Fafnir
UnseenBurst with 3 clean OS’s
Imperial hit hard but it’s on destroy and is a mixed attacker, so generally it won’t have enough power to KO a left master on drift. And yes I did try to launch differently and KO it.
UnseenBurst wins!
That’s UnseenBurst with 4 straight wins and 0 losses. With everyone else having at least 1 loss UnseenBurst is moving to the finals. Not to say he chose a bad combo, but he was extremely lucky to have a left bey on drift and go up against 4 right beys. If any of them had been leftspin he might not have had that straight win record. Kudos to you UnseenBurst for choosing such a risky combo knowing it would lose against lefts, but you got 4 straight wins! Nice one!
That just leaves 1 round left
TheRogueBlader vs GreaterLonginus
Genesis KO
Genesis OS
Genesis OS
Yeah rise isn’t very good on lighter beys, sorry GreaterLonginus, better luck next time dude!
TheRogueBlader wins!
#Fafnir is moving to the finals with his sold choice of a mixed attacker.
#Fafnir and UnseenBurst will face the top 2 from Group B in the semifinals!
Blader for 8+years, CA Organizer, hoping to improve at the game and meet more people along the way. Let It Rip!
