Lets keep this thread clean and have a great match, guys! Looks like it's off to a pretty even start.

[chuckles79]

Well JQ can unclench their sphincters, BG is clearly playing for first and is not discriminating.
After a couple of weeks of SBI post-WM, this kind of aggression is a nice change.  We're getting a lot of badges but we can't be everywhere either.
This is going to be a nailbiter.

[Laylyn]

Good luck to all three servers.

It has begun.   In SoS borderlands tonight, there were some awesome battles.

JQ was out in force:


SoS was attacking from any direction possible, even by sea:


And BG was rolling out strong:

The only experience I've had so far with this match up is being in a mob of people who get trampled by invisible people.

Blehh!

[Wotah]

Yay!  Someone's doing it right!

[Ornio]

Had fun losing and recapturing SM around 2 times in 3 hours, nice match up of huge zergs of SoS and JQ. Keep up the good work Blackgate!

[HederaHelix]

Had a blast in BG Borderlands tonight! SoS is seriously blood thirsty.

They're not happy until everything is their color.  So they will roam around in 50 man zergs to take supply camps.

That's cool because we were right behind them taking their camps back =)  I got 100 kills on SoS tonight before I quit too.  So hooray for that.

[Changelings]

My bags keep getting full.. What's the deal you guys?

Score Update!

[coronbale]

Wow guys, just wow.  No joke I got 1600 kills in EB today.  For 2 strait hours TSYM moved from Rogues to Golanta wiping 50 man zergs as fast as we could run.  REDIC!

Both BG and JQ are hyper aggressive this week, LOVING this challenge!  KnT and KOR have frightening field presence, we were having to tweak our plays on the fly to keep alive during your attacks.  Well done all!

HUGE shout out to ONE, couldnt have done what we did tonight without your team to help.  ENVY for manning our hard border for an hour and a half at a critical time basically gave us SM.  Mad props everyone and lets get more of the same tomorrow!

We all just like to share the wealth man. Gotta offset those gold sinks somehow ya'know?

Fun reset tonight. Lots of dead bodies on all sides, as it's supposed to be. It's all about the phat lootz yo! Share it and wear it bitches!

[OGBarron]

I havnt had fights like this since HoD and Titan Alliance. This is what tier 1 is all about. About the only thing that can be successfully taken on a map is supply camps. Everything else is near impossible....its unreal!

I hope it continues through the week. Mad props to JQ on SoS BL, they have been non-stop under fire and still defending.

[Kreen]

Good luck to all three servers and hoping for more of the same fight wise for the coming week. I really hope it stays close all week for an three way awesome finish.

Win or lose, fighting tooth and nail right up to the reset in a tight 3 way match up where any of the 3 could steal it would be something new

We knew that things had changed when we dove for garrison (JQ BL), letting PuGs take Hills,  and BG dove for Greenwater while letting their PuGs take Bay.

[DizzySkyJump]

Sooo many JQ

[Kreen]

Excellent close fights. Props to all three servers.

Current score. SoS 23,272, BG 23,255, JQ 22,133. ppts: JQ 275, BG 220, SoS 200

[CalmLittleBuddy]

This is the real deal. Now that's some serious chicken fry right there folks.

[RawNG]

The real test is when the weekend is over

[OGBarron]

The weekend has a lot to say for the fight. But the weekdays will show who is really serious. I cant count how many numbers of times people have come out guns blazing all weekend long.....just to fail off during the weekday and then come in third place. Eredon Terrace and TL were the best at this.

Still good fights all round. Keep it coming! Having a blast and there is badges for everyone. Got to admit, getting ALOT more badges from Blackgate. Anyone from SoS and JQ feel the same? I think it might be because they are new so the system thinks we arent farming so it rewards us better ;/

I am killing and being killed by both sides alot Fanastic fights, best in T1 yet. One thing I have noticed this weekend is there are an awful lot of BG running glass cannon builds. It hurts a bunch if they focus on you and you don't have any migitation stuff left to use but on the reverse if you can get an aoe carpet down then they die very quickly. Maybe thats why.

Please don't take this the wrong way BG - props to your server you are playing excellent stuff but that might be why there are more BG hats on the ground in our fights anyway. I see 30 folks all with a GC build coming at us.  We still lose 50% though because you have more hats in the fight anyway

bg really was fun to play against you guys last nite,can I just say one thing i want my pants back and my shirt, socks and undies I got hammered so much  lol it was fun.

[Beastgate]

Hope Blackgate doesn't choke like they did against SBI.

[huaweiii]

lol beastgate

bg, u guys better be ready for sos's downtime pushes, they will find your weak timezones, scope out your commanders and make a push during NA primes. u guys should be ready from playing sor, although sos played them, too. i wonder how sos fairs is doing in the street fights lmao lolololol

sos usually has one big guild in EB, a few commanders in their borderland, small guilds in blue and some medium guilds in red.

Dont forget Beastgate should be ready for the trollish bottomfeeders that have latched on to SoS's underbelly like a great white shark.

Great job in EB today as well, some amazing push pulls going down.  Also, to the few BG who have felt the need to message me and tell me how bad my guild is, perhaps you might wanna quit QQing in tells and get behind your commanders.  They are some very skilled tacticians, and I'm betting one of their tactics doesn't involve you with tears running down your face.  GG

Thems are fightin words, son!

BG watch out for Kurthos from Work, too. He is usually on SoS border and doesn't leave until it's all theirs. Watch out for SoS NA prime time and you should be fine, but SOs will put up points after scouting your cmmanders and weak time slots. Best of luck to all of you out on the battlefield HOOERAH

Good fights so far. HB has been in BG bl for the first 25½ hour of the matchup and dont plan on leaving anytime soon. We will however pay a visit to EB later in the week to fight TSym. Will be fun to see if they improved since their time on Dragronbrand.

We´ve seen some new tactics and siege placements from SoS that we havent seen before. Its been a learning experience for sure. Keep up the fight.

[EvilSinzGW2]

Solid match-up so far.  BG has some huge ass zergs

We have noted a big improvement in Tsym in particular in the last three weeks. I think you might be plesantly surprised, or maybe not

As for new siege placements, well I have no clue where they might have picked those up....

Seriously though, Tsym are a totally different prospect compared to their DB days speaking from someone who has fought them when on Db and for many weeks in T1. If there was a medal for the most improved guild in GW2 WvW I think they would be my pick. They have my respect certainly.
