Why are Russians wearing Empire colors?
It's way outside of medieval period too.

Still, handling UK's assses to them.

>>74214453
Sword hits rarely hurt unless they hit a good spot. 2h axe hits hurt but you're in so much adrenaline that you can push through it. You'd still want to catch that axe with your shield rather than with your helmet.

>>74214474
Some from last years Finland 1 dropped out due to financial issues this year but they're still pretty solid. Finland 2 is mostly new guys.

>>74214493
You misunderstood. I meant that accusations of cheating were one of the reasons IMCF was formed. I don't think they have been straight up cheating, rather there's been misunderstandings due to language and cultural barriers.

Yeah but it'd be balanced out by all the others I would have won.

Czech vs Spain fight was awesome holyshit

>that Czech guy front kicking the guy in the gut

Why are Russians and Ukrainians even allowed here? They should just fight between them for 1st and 2nd place, and let everyone else fight for the 3rd.

The Russian's overhand polearm game seems unbeatable.

I don't know why people bother doing anything else.

>>74215399
I'd say my current set is something between 1500-2000€. My first set was around 1200€ but I've since upgraded some of my gear (shins, helmet, gauntlets, gambesons).

The cheapest sets are around 800€ if you order from Russian armorsmiths and get them delivered to an event like BOTN.

>>74215595

I would assume so, the event is being held in Barcelona I think.

They need a few less camera changes.

It's hard enough following a 21 v 21 fight without the camera jumping to a new corner of the ring every couple of seconds.

REVOLUTIONARY WAR COMING UP.

Why don't they fight in formation?

>>74215871
They do initially, battle usually breaks up the formations though. Look at how polearms are positioned.

>What are the rules?
In 5v5s and 21v21s you have to throw enemies to the ground to get them out of the match. Thrusting is not allowed etc. I guess the finn (>>74214178) might be able to help out here with more specific questions.

Not really.

Can we make state based teams? I want to make a team of Hoosiers called the "Hoosier Autists". We'll sporadically say Hoosier daddy throghout the fight as we get our shit kicked in

I think this would be more exciting if fence grabbing wasn't allowed. I mean leaning against it is one thing, but straight up grabbing it just slows things up.

1 vs 1 should be replaced in the middle and grabbing the "ropes" should be forbidden

>>74216022
Depends on the team. Russia, Ukraine and Belarus can overally just destroy people with or without judo

That Czech vs Spain was intense as fuck.

OH SHIT I'M LATE WHAT DID I MISS FOR 21V21

Pretty much what >>74215987 said. You're allowed to hit as hard as you can. There are rules on how rounded and how much the weapons weigh.

>>74216921
>>74216970
There's a limit to shield size but it applies mostly to 1vs1 sword&shield. In mass battle you just don't have any clear advantage to having a big shield, a small one that you can easily strike with is infinitely better.

>>74217072
That are you whining about? You don't complain about headshots in boxing either. It's part of the game.

Who pays for all of this? Those 100 spectators can't be enough to cover all the costs.

It's like in MMA where you down a guy but get in a couple cheap shots after he is already KO to give him permanent brain damage or break a jaw

One guy in the corner vs four polearms just smashing him in the head, the fucking battle is already over they are just trying to murder someone

>>74217214

WE WILL KICK YOUR ASS, POLAND

>>74217108
but it's the same strat every match, why arent they countered and forced to do something else?

>>74217251
The battle is not over until the refs says so and the last man is down so technically it's still all legal.

>>74217251

The battle isn't over until the marshals stop it.

Same thing in MMA, if the ref doesn't stop it you keep hitting.

>>74217251
>One guy in the corner vs four polearms just smashing him in the head

That's literally not allowed. Refs break it up if it's more than two or three guys on one, I belive.

Also people don't hit with their full strength and they wear plenty of protection.

>>74217273
Because no tactic works against Russia. The only way would be to literally mirror their tactic but since no country is strong enough, they'll just win anyway.

I think Belarus actually managed to beat one Russian team last year but it could be my shit memory

>>74217303

>people don't hit with their full strength

Lol no, the Russians are clearly going at it with everything they have. If other teams aren't, that might explain why they're winning.

>>74217327
Sure, they're more hardcore than the others but they still aren't hitting with the intention of cuasing injuries etc.

>>74217251
As long as you're standing, you're in the game. Striking on downed opponents is against the rules though. If you can't take it you just let yourself fall down.

>>74214051
wouldn't grapple and clinch oriented martial arts practitioners adapted to this easily dominate everyone?

>>74217353

>they still aren't hitting with the intention of cuasing injuries

When it comes to Ukrainians and Russians thats what im doubting desu

>>74217353

Oh I'm not saying they're doing anything wrong, but they're definitely striking with full power. I.e. playing to win, nothing wrong with that.

>>74217326
seems like shit sport if tactics stagnate to 1 idea, just means whoever has practiced the 1 idea most will win, i hope it gets more popular and tactics diversify/develop

>>74217516

Poland's doing fairly well, only lost against Ukraine. UK is also doing well. Italy fairly well too.

>>74217516
we lost 0:2 vs Ukraine, but won 2:0 with Spain
Czech vs Spain was best fight by far

>>74214178
This >>74217167

>>74217519
Western teams show pretty good improvement over the years desu.

>>74217450
definitely not, you can't tackle and as we've seen (especially as displayed by americans) charging doesn't really work unless it's short, well-timed and perfect balance is maintained.

>the Ukrainian mad axeman in the middle spamming overheads

That's how you get shit done. Why can't western teams?

so the finals will be russia vs ukraine?

>>74217612

Looking like it.

Where's /ourguy/ competing this year?

>>74217612
Russia has multiple teams in 5v5s. So there might be russia vs russia. But otherwise, probably.

>>74217573
Ukrainians also clearly have a formation, two lanes: frontline and polearmers behind them. Spaniards just charged in as a mob.

There's a huge gap between East and West here.

>>74217476
Well, I was misled by the colors of the form, you have fighters without yellow roses.

>>74217686

Yeah it's a simple strategy - front line ties them up, second line smashes them in the head. And it works every time.

>>74217660
Wasn't one tournament basically

1. Russia 1
2. Russia 2
3. Ukraine 1
4. Russia 3

>>74217699
...holy shit, that's not an edit?

What's his nationality?

I'd blame the Aztec gold.

>>74217660
If it's Russia vs Russia final one side better not immediately concede like last year.

;_;

This is legit so fun.

I envy anyone discovering this for the first time because my first year I couldn't stop laughing

>>74217747
Belarusian, lol

>>74217728
Russia 2 did bad last year. Shame on them.

UKRAINE STRONK

>>74217808
>tfw discovered it the year it was in Poland but on the last day and I couldn't get there on time

>Ukrainians are keeping the formation even when walking around the arena

>>74217808
A couple of years back here on 4chan. Haven't watched it again until today, totally a coincidence I saw the thread up.

>>74217727
the main difference is just timing, and wherein russia and ukraine don't obscure each other, rather move as a blob where everyone knows the positioning and what's happening. You can pile on good consecutive polearm hits if your own team gets in the way and you don't have any rhythm or system.

>>74217808
I knew it existed but had no clue when I was on.

If you were the Brit who posted the link in /heem/ then thanks because otherwise I would for sure have missed it.

It's me brutha.
/heem/ has moved past it this year it seems, webm Ausbro isn't around which is a shame because he actually quite enjoyed it too and I doubt he knows it's on.

/sp/ thread is dead af too, I started one on /int/ since I figured it'd be better off. Last year I think /sp/, /tv/ and /int/ had threads

That's why it would be so funny. Top ironing.

Is Batman on the USA team?

>>74218182
Pretty much. Also one of the reason why hugging at end of some matches happens, people are just super tired.

Shame Japan doesn't field a team of samurai

Too bad they do that with Zweihandlers

Arent swords super ineffective with this ruleset?

I saw one of you fuckers steal this comment and post it in the youtube chat

>>74218283

Shit are they in this 21v21 round? Or do they just come in later?

>>74218205
You're the best, Poland.

>>74218111
americans are funny, that has nothing to do with where i am from
also remebering the biggest rekt https://youtu.be/Slu4MgS-Rzg?t=5m10s

>>74218249
Traditional samurai armour would be too weak for competition standards.

>>74218294
Nah, polearms and long hammers are the shit

>>74218076
Holy fuck those burger-torpedoes are deadly.
They looked at horses and saw great potential in stampedes...
Well done either way.

>One Pole charges against 5 French
>Well, I better film the hugging crowd

>>74218302
They're in 5v5s tomorrow.

>>74218294
Not really, a Czech using a greatsword did quite well earlier.

>>74218328

New thread?

We're just too good, m8

We were top tier knights, back then

poland confirmed for not slavic at all

>>74218470
On it.

>>74217543
I've heard there might be some generous sponsors in Russia supporting these events but that you shouldn't ask too many questions unless you want to meet Russia 1 on a back alley.

Might be just some russian banter though. Most of the people working there are volunteers so most expenses are just for the venue.

>>74217639
Unfortunately couldn't make it this year. :(

Whats the cripple/death count for BoTN?

I could never find the stats and find it hard to believe noone has got permanent casualties in all these years.

>>74218484

Can I make it?

Kind of crazy how every Russian fight is the same. They just bulldoze the opponent and literally don't fall

I like how Russia just fucking elbows and pommels everyone's heads to make them cover up

>>74218428
We're literally midcarders now

>>74218551
Announcers claimed a while ago that there have been no reports of serious injuries at any events.
