Unless I am very, very blind (and I am) I did not see a thread for this T3 matchup.

Well here it is.

[Laylyn]

Good luck to all three servers.  =)

I was hoping for another video.

It seem that Dragonbrand is fighting to stay in this match. Lol

Well, this video is from the Bay fight from last night. Was an epic fight.

Awesome, as usual. Your vids are great because one never knows what to expect. Everything for a small child's voice being a smartass to Christmas carols to dubstep.

It seems that if DB doesn't take first place in this matchup they'll be bumped back down to tier 4, good luck to everyone (except FA, sorry I have grudges against IoJ guilds)

Lol It's Quenta Quenta! We were wondering what happened to you in ToR when we got moved from Kellers Void to Jedi Convenant, now I see where you ran off to!

I'll have to tell the rest of Prime Defense where you are so we can all come give you a warm welcome for all those butterknives to the butthole we got from you.

Kinda funny too, since we were also on Ft. Aspenwood too at release.....

We just need more points against CD to stay in this tier. i think it can happen, we still have till friday.

[ShezuTsukai]

DB definitely will stay. CD had 0 when I logged this morning. I think they are making a hard run for first.

It seems kind of strange to me to be in first since FA has been the T3 underdog for so long.

We are getting a few transfers from IoJ and a couple from the lower tiers too. Not Guild size transfers but people.

You guys have a massive WvW population now and full time coverage always, CD is always undermanned in all borderlands at night/oceanic times

I'm not so sure, most likely you'll win against CD but I'm not sure if the small increase in points for a 2nd place victory will keep you in T3, mostly because Magumma is creating a storm in Tier 4 against undermanned opponents, so they might surge all the way up to 7th place (top of tier 3) due to a huge increase in points. CD still has a padded placement atm (the current top of tier 3) so we'll likely not drop more than 2 places.

From what I can see, CD is gonna be able to hang on, DB is going to drop a tier, and Maguuma will move all the way up to the top spot in tier 3.  Dragonbrand is gonna have to deal with Kaineng making it into tier 4 on their continued push up.

At the bottom of the page it shows how the current scores will affect next rounds tier placements.

We are just a few points to just to stay in the 3rd tier, CD is going to drop a tier, DB is fighting its to keep on this tier. When i logged in this morning. It was like this, http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA  I hate to say it but come CD and fight back.

[Dosearius]

yup...as the week has gone on it's seems to be clear that CD just is not in the fight ATM and if they don't get it together NOW, then DB will be the ones hanging on to tier 3 while CD drops down to tier 4.

So, I fooked up on this video, the video was suppose to stop at around 12 minutes. Fixing and reuploading soon.

And there it is...Dragonbrand just overtook CD and looks like they'll likely hold onto tier 3 while CD drops a tier.

CD lost some guilds. It doesn't look like a mass exodus like we've seen before, but it looks like it's going to hurt and likely why DB was able to close the gap. It's interesting how the domino effect can manifest itself sometimes when already in a delicate situation. From what I could tell, all it took was one guild [RISE] transferring to another server to start the dominoes falling.

Best of luck to all in your next match. Next week is going to be interesting.

I didnt even know about that, thank you for that info. =)

If they get blown out by Kaineng that might be its kiss of death.  We'll know by Monday.

[ShezuTsukai]

If you are going to stay t3 DB I'd hope to see a little more maturity. I have seen more corpse dances by DB (especially in jp's) than any other server.
Pissed me off enough when I was showing a newbie around the borderlands that the next thing I taught him was stealth instagib. We spent the next hour practicing on DBers.

If you win fine, but learn to do it with honor.

[Dosearius]

every server gets that from time to time.  One hour you'll go into JP and everyone is being cool and mesmers from all 3 servers will be portaling people up without anyone causing problems.  Than other times you step through the portal to the JP and are met instantly by siege.  And I've seen people from our server doing the same kind of things...

It's a down ward spiral to the bottom and pride from the server if they loose that again.

It's the internets, plain and simple.  Its the Open World Pvp-ish, i don't do the jump puzzle for badges, like most people there that are afraid to fight. Hell, I'll all of my armor break before i repair it and still get badges, just grow up and stop whining because its still pvp-ish.
