Fresh off our upset victory against a heavily tipped /vp/, /tg/ are in the driving seat as we look to secure promotion against a surprisingly aggressive /sci/ team in today's second match. (Kick off 1730 UTC, 1:30 pm EDT)
BUT BEFORE THAT, our good buddies /m/ look to recover from last week's draw with a win over /vp/ who are also eager to get back on stronger footing. (1700 UTC, 1 pm EDT)
AFTER US HOWEVER, our other good buddies /toy/ take on historical powerhouse /sp/ to get some much needed points in the fight for advancement. (1800 UTC, 2 pm EDT)
AND LATER, in tonight's final match our other OTHER good buddies /co/ take on /g/ as they look to recover from a narrow loss to /int/ (2030 UTC, 4:30 pm EDT)
So that's it. Get in here. GET HYPE! AND WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

What the fuck is /m/'s defence doing?
>>54695571
You too.
>>54695406
Too be fair, Tankred Endures a pretty good meme. Losing Creed on the other hand...
>those conditions all across the field.

>>54696171
Damn it anon
>>54695334
>>54695406
>>54695425
Emprah is shitty when he's not a goalie. He needs to be demoted by Fall.
Rolled 20 (1d20)
Can we salvage this game?
Rolled 12 (1d20)
>>54696171
I roll to punch anon in the testicles so he can't reproduce anymore of his kind.
By the way fuck Sci they shouldn't even be in summer.

What is going on!
>>54696311
What the fuck is happening
>>54696311
THIS IS THE MATCH ROLL GUYS, STOP ROLLING
I guess science beats magic.
Swapping out Creed for Emprah was a mistake, Emprah has been choking constantly ever since he was made a striker.
ROLL A 20 /tg/ OR YOU WILL RECIEVE A COLONY ON SUNDAY
t. /m/
>>54696356
Hard agree. We should drop Robot Girlyman and slide Emprah back in as alternate GK. I'm fine with bringing Creed back, but also open to promoting up someone else.
BY THE EMPRAH
EMPRAH SAVES THE DAY!
PRAISE IT
>>54696359
Nice colony., would be ashame if something happened to it.
>>54696393
HE PROTEC BUT HE ALSO ATTAC
>>54696344
More like Tzeentch is fucking with the cup.
>Oh /sci/ lost in the babby? Time to pull them to summer by removing other teams.
>>54696386
On second thought...
>>54696359
Childish fucking Zeeks, you played like shit, stop taking it out on other boards.I love you /m/ but the council needs to step it up
>>54696424
He's been shit consistently through Spring and Summer, but he gets one sneaky goal and suddenly you want to give him a chance?
>>54696432
To be fair, we've been playing like shit too.
>>54696432Don't worry we love you too <3 We all know a diamoind is formed under pressure
>>54696441
I guess your right.
>>54696432
>>54696453I just want to see /tg/, /m/, and /co/ make it to the knockouts
>>54696479
With this result, it is no longer possible. Only one of /m/ and /tg/ can make it.
>FLGS finally reunited in one cup only to be separated again
>>54696171
Thanks for PESing us.
>>54696171
>>54696279
MMMMMMMODDDDDSSSSSSSSSS
Doomrider doesn't have the support he once did. The power house of Creed+Doomrider+Jace can't be topped.
Tester here, Stop fucking rolling 1's guys.
Leave it to us.
John Fuklaw, if you happen to come in this thread: Emprah should be alternate GK again, he's just not good at supporting Doomrider. Thanks for all your work managing.
I feel like /sci/ had a pretty decent counter to our tactics due to their more focus on the wing, whereas /tg/ mostly focuses on centre.
>>54696582
This is what we get for putting trendiness over good memes. Sagan is dead, but /sci/ still uses him. Put back Creed, and make Emprah a goalie.
>>54696600
What my Double Dubs getting compatriot said. Support is great, but leave the dice rolling to us.
Welp, that didn't go as planned.
/sci/ started off with something we hadn't entirely planned for and got some lucky shots.
Things got under control in the second half, but too late.
Looks like we'll have to kill our FLGS brother /m/ to advance after all.
>>54696646
Should we be concerned about the loyalties of Urbanmech and Tankred?
>>54696666
Take all mechs off the team for sunday's match just to be safe.
LETS GO /toy/!
>>54696646
Is there a way to ensure both of us stay in elite, even without winning the cup? I want muh FLGS playoff dammit.
SEE YOU ON SUNDAY YOU MAGNIFICENT DICE ROLLERS
t. /m/
>>54696683
No. It's impossible. Whoever wins on Sunday qualifies and whoever loses goes to Autumn. Although technically, we both can go to Autumn, too.
>>54696683
nope. There is no way for /m/ and /tg/ to advance. Either ONE of us advances or NEITHER of us advance.
>>54696646
BRING BACK CREED
Ok. Sorry /tg/. /sci/ ran something we didn't expect and it just caught us on the blind side. That being said, with no disrespect to /sci/, we felt their first two goals were just PES being >PES and you can't plan for that. We did manage to staunch the bleeding as the match went on and even started to get something of an attack together.
Ultimately, this is on our heads and we apologise. But, we're not out yet. Looking forward to Sunday, we have a pretty special game against /m/ with a win-and-in situation. Now, two brothers must fight one another and give it their all in order to survive, but one must fall. It's nothing but high drama here in the 4CC.
Once again, thanks for all your support (even this guy >>54696171). Stay tuned.
>>54696887
Can't speak for other anons, but I'm not angry. Rather, I'm happy that we finally made it back into an elite cup. But I've got serious doubts about Emprah in his current position.
>>54696758
>>54696921
I agree with these guys, it's good that we're in elite again, but Emprah has been consistently bad since he was put in. Although, this is something more for the post-cup poll.
>>54696921
this.
>>54696921
Both Emprah and Doomrider need tweaking (or the players that might end up replacing them if we have a poll)
Remember folks, meme magic aside at the end of the day it doesn't matter what the player is/called they're still only as good as they're set to be.
>>54696887
Rome was founded by one brother killing another
>>54696311
ROLL UNDER, ROLL UNDER
That match was insane.
congratulations to /d/
condolences to /mu/
>>54696359
operation british?
>>54696311
ITS A ROLL UNDER SYSTEM YOU NUMBNUT
>>54695265
What the fuck were you doing /tg/!? I come back from work to a fucking defeat? Huh?
Can you no longer move players while you're on timeout? We should've improved our midfield game if you were going to keep tossing the ball up the middle.
Also, why are Doomrider and Emprah Silver if you're planning on having them take all the shots?
>>54696311
That's not how it works.
>>54702063
In my experience, slider and mentality changes help more than just moving the players around on the pitch.
Also, we did switch to a different preset formation we'd prepped that did work better.
It still didn't do enough, though.
Safety bump.
>>54702063
2 of /sci/'s shots were just RNG. There is nothing you can program into a preset which allows for those kind of shots.
PES also seems to have a winners momentum thing too.
After this cup we'll be experimenting with medals for either Autumn or Winter.
Remember folks, you can help too. We're always on the look out for testers or aesthetics people. Join the discord linked in the second post to find out more or just to chill with us.
Bumping thread for tomorrows match.
Going pretty badly for vidya boards so far.
Let's hope it's not a sign for the FLGS crew.
At least having all vidya AND all FLGS teams eliminated is actually impossible thanks to out group.
I feel bad for /po/... not exactly FLGS, but they're occasionally bros.
