beach — Tonight sees a clash between BFF and Pokeman (a.k.a myDGB.net) in ETF2L’s Premiership Division, Week 2.
These two teams have had differing records this season so far. Both teams have played only one game: BFF won theirs comfortably, annihilating Quarantine 5-0, 5-0 on cp_badlands and cp_gullywash. Pokeman on the other hand lost 6-2, 4-2 to Crack Clan. Obviously both teams have undergone changes recently, so here are the lineups:
BFFMedic – Hat
Demoman – kaidus
Soldiers – Daleth and hocz
PokemanMedic – Evilmoon
Demoman – Gubbins
Soldiers – Darn! and Haunter
Scouts – Coinz and Kiler4fun
On paper, BFF are clearly the stronger team; in fact one-third of Pokeman’s team are players who ended up being cut from BFF’s original lineup, so kaidus‘ boys are surely feeling confident about this game. It seems to me they have the advantage in every class. Kaidus has far superior Prem experience (and DM) on Demoman than Gubbins, and although Darn! is a seasoned veteran,Daleth has the potential to become one of the top Soldiers in Prem. But where BFF really have the advantage is in their scout combo. Ruthless pistol extraordinaire Quad and the scout who got THAT 6-man (see just about every frag movie made last year), BeaverN, shouldn’t have too much trouble dealing with Portugese combo Coinz and Kiler4fun.
I asked kaidus how he was feeling about the fixture…
‘When I told hocz that mydgb thought minimoose was too good to merc for him, his reply was and i quote “who the fuck is minimoose I was shitting on haunters nuts before he even knew what tf2 was”. With that in mind, I hope it’s a GG.’
A valuable insight, and satisfaction for hippole I’m sure.
