We Battled into the Night

S3 Vengeful Gladiator Greatsword

It had been difficult pulling our 5v5 team together to get ten matches in. We had been sitting at 1794 (28-9) record. Like many other teams at this point in the season, we had been desiring the golden 1850. The goal eluded us once in the past. We made 1830-something, but fell back with two losses in a row.

Last night, we made the push. The run began optimistically with Crazzymike in the Resto. Shaman slot going 3-1 before switching out for Oblivions.  Like previous attempts, we got to 1840-something (so close), but we’d hit a loss or two, and fall back down to 1810.   We finished at about 3AM to go 12-7 which took us to 1853.

So the choice, as I alluded to, several days ago the choice was sword or mace.  If you didn’t notice in the giant picture above, I did indeed pick the S3 Vengeful Gladiator’s Greatsword.  Sword makes the most sense for both my style and my spec. - Big Burst Procs.

Next up:  1850+ for my 2v2 and 3v3s.

    Ryan - No. Never. I may buy the mace for laughs though.

    Eli - I avoided those words on purpose.

    Ah, great to see you here. Welcome (I’m always surprised when people from other servers find my page).

    I have a friend that plays Horde-side (or did play, I’m not sure if she still does) on Emerald Dream.

    Push push push. Its a good motto. Its a little annoying that all the teams we fight either give us 11 points or less or take away 5 points at a time. I understand how the top teams must feel because they always need to be on top of their game cause one slip up can easily cost 20 points. It happened to us once or twice. One time being a disconnection which was out of our hands. Mostly, though, I think if we can keep pushing 2000 will be attainable. As long as we stay motivated, learn from mistakes, and continue to work as a team, we will make progress. Cheers to our new weapons. Next stop: New Shoulders.
