At least they are not as much bullies as actually Russian team for botn who goes around kicking people in the back. Shit seems dirty as hell even though it is allowed.

Getting kicked in the back hurts man and it's very easy to give someone chronic injuries doing it. Your team would still sweep even without doing it.

Yeah, it's pathetic, they can't win fare and square so they have to exclude Russian team for some made up reason just to get their shit kicked in by Ukranians. It's all the same with olympic drug scandal: every team does that but we get all the flac for political reasons while other olympians guzzle on their "asthma" inhalers to get shit going. Hipocrites, the lot of them.

is that really true?
I don't think i've seen one use actual tournament rules before

Pussies can't handle fair fighting so Russians must be excluded.
Fuck you hypocrits

is that like for honor. i dont play the game tho.

Can I have some sources ?
The only thing I read was westerner didn't agree on how things were done in the BOTN, and since they didn't had what they wanted, they just created their own tournament.

The only reason I see for the moment is Russian boycotting the event.

So I checked and it seem the only hypocrits here are the russian. They were invited but didn't come because IMCF was created by buttblasted westerner that were fed up of russian bias )))) in BOTN.

They are now in full damage control and don't attend because "muh tournament for baby" when it's only because they aren't in control.

>>75254917
Russians are not invited imho. But, to be completely honest, cquick net check didn't give me any info of Russians being either banned from this event or ignoring in by their own volition.

>The West’s notions of fair play and how an international tournament should be run are, it would seem, at odds with that of the East’s. Dissent has been stirring among the camps and honor was called into question on several sides, and complaints started to be raised about the Russian organizers. The first to percolate were stories about rule-changing and underhand tournament organization.
“They said that under no circumstances can you have a metal handle on your shield, and that you can’t wear titanium armor,” U.S. team captain Andre Sinou tells me later over the phone from his native New Jersey. Sinou is also the owner of an armory manufacturer called Icefalcon. “So I told my guys that. Then when we went out there, all the Eastern teams had metal handles. We complained, and they said, ‘Oh, we sent out a memo,’ which none of the Western countries got.”

>Many of the Eastern fighters were wearing Kevlar armor under their suits and came with lethal equipment — such as two-handled halberd axes — that was banned for anyone else. “The weapons that some of the Eastern teams were using were just dangerous,” Sinou says. “They were pointy, they didn’t follow the rules for sharpness. After 2013, we had puncture wounds — we had a meaty guy who got punctured all the way down to the bone on the shoulder. It hit his spine. He could have been paralyzed.”

>>75253074
Dirty indeed. But your team should be prepared for such actions from your enemy, it's their own fault that they lost.

>Nick Birkin echoes many of these complaints and adds his own stories of match fixing, detailing devious techniques that would put a Sochi figure-skating judge to shame and which apparently allowed Russian teams to progress further and enjoy longer rest breaks between contests. But the growing concerns of an increasing number of countries was met by a response almost laughably Kafkaesque.

>“They said they’d put us on a committee, which would be headed by a Russian or a Ukrainian,” Sinou says. “They flat-out said they don’t trust somebody who’s not Russian or Ukrainian.

Pretty much butthurt westerner that don't accept current way of doing things facing butthurt russian that don't accept the schism.

Russians didn't have full plate armor during that period so it's not even we-wuz. If it was they'd be wearing mail.

What is this turboautism? Adult human beings are partaking in this? Is there a limit to European wewuzing?

>>75255329
However, last year also saw a major split, as fighters from the U.K., U.S., and others decided to break away from the HMBIA to form their own organization amid accusations of cheating, corruption, and foul play. Countries are at war, and the battles taking place online are as vicious as the ones on the field.

The Americans, for a number of reasons, are spearheading a mass exodus from the HMBIA’s Battle of the Nations (BOTN) tournament, the establishment of a brand-new organization called the International Medieval Combat Federation (IMCF), and a new world championship to rival BOTN in Spain.

The problem with Russia, is it's endemic and the government was actively supporting it.

Way to be defensive and miss the point. He said it didn't make sense for a we wuz tournament to have Russians and not Japs and I said neither did it for Russians to we-wuz full plate. Besides most white Americans ancestors were in countries with full plate at that time.

Doesn't make you "asthma" problem any less endemic and actively supported by your own gowernments. Profeccional sports are all about combination of athlete's personal traits, training team engineuety and govenrmental support (including medical supplementation, no individual team has enough resources to make good enough drugs to be both efficient and to make them technicaly legal to use).
Long short: Pot, meet Catle.

>and actively supported by your own gowernments
I don't think you know what actively supported means. FSB fixing test results is active support.

>>75255757
I bet full plate armor is mandatory for safety reasons, most european knight didn't wear shit like that , too, not in real combat at least. No need to be to be so exclusive here, americans and aussies are participating, after all.

>>75255872
>I don't think you know what actively supported means. FSB fixing test results is active support.
It's fucked up is true, but i bet that olympians are not involved in it but being punished for it the most. A better way to handle this shit would be to organise an international drug-testin team with external funding and undisclosed list of members, just to minimize potential involvement of ANY government.

What happened with Ukraine fielding 22 men in the 21v21 final against Russia?

These constant draws

>>75266889
They decided that it was the marshalls fault and the head marshalls were "financially penaltised", meaning they probably just got paid a bit less or something.

>>75272195
Huh, I thought they'd revoke the win
That's cool
