April/May/June 2010 2v2 Demigod Community Tournament - Results Thread

from Demigod Forums

This thread has been created for the purpose of tracking results in the April/May 2010 2v2 Demigod Community Tournament. 

Current status:  WINNER! - King_Of_Thorns + Zen_God

Round 1a began at 5PM on 4/21/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 4/30/2010. 

Round 1b began at Midnight on 5/1/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 5/7/2010.

Round 2 began at Midnight on 5/8/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 5/23/2010.

Round 3 (SEMIFINALS) began at Midnight on 5/24/2010 and will end at 11:59PM EST on 5/30/2010.

Round 4 (FINALS) began Midnight on 5/31/2010 and will end at 11:59PM EST on 6/5/2010

Players responsible for hosting and scheduling their own matches.  Then, the winning team must provide a replay and a link to the pantheon stats here for tracking purposes, for every game played.  Please feel free to use this thread get your matches scheduled.

There will be a need to disqualify teams that aren't making the required effort to get their games in without penalizing another team that's doing whatever they can to get a match scheduled.  It's probably best if teams that are trying to organize matches go on record in the forums.  For instance, if I was playing against say AtMa and Ba, I'd post something like the following in this thread:

Atma + Ba:  trouser and pacov are generally available M-F from 5pm EST - 1AM EST.  Please let us know if some time in that slot would work for you or recommend a time slot that works.  I'll PM you in a few days if I haven't heard from you or we can discuss this on lagwars vent. 

Something like that.  If it comes down to disqualifying teams because they didn't get their match in, the more info and tracking you have indicating that you did your best to get the match scheduled the better.

Here is the FINAL bracket  - UPDATED 6/5/2010

Tournament Rules:

  • You may only select characters as indicated in the grid below:

  • Each match in the tournament will be the best 2 out of 3 games
  • All matches will be played on cataract with default settings (the only exceptions being AI HP on Very High and AI Gold/XP on low)
  • After teams are formed, they will be randomly placed into a bracket to determine who will fight who.  Everything will be random initially in round 1.  In the following rounds, the winners from one game will play the winners from another based on location in the bracket starting from the top on to the bottom.
  • Each team will play 1 round on light side, then 1 round on dark side.  If there is a 3rd round, the team that had the fastest win in game 1 or 2 gets to pick the side they want to be on (keep in mind the following rule).  
  • The team that is on the dark side must pick their characters and ready up first.  Then the light gets to pick and the dark side does not have a chance to adjust their characters. 
  • To track your wins, you must do the following - post the replay at gamereplays.org.  If you have issues with gamereplays, upload the file to rapid share and provide us with a link.  Also, provide a link to the match in the pantheon and let me know if its a win or loss.  The winning team should do this for each and every match.
  • UberFix 1.02 must be used (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/374315).  UberFix is a mod that fixes many of the bugs in Demigod.  Check the modding forum for everything that is fixed by UberFix 1.02. 

How will we handle crashes:

If there is a game crash, the players involved in that match should see if they can come to a consensus on the probable outcome of the match.  If there is no clear winner, the 2 teams should replay the match using the exact same demigods and sides (light/dark).  If there was a clear winner at that point in the game, then that team should be awarded the win.  If the 2 teams disagree on the outcome, a third party will review the replay of the match and render a decision.  Be aware that the 3rd party must agree that a specific team was going to win or the results will be thrown out and the match redone.

How we will handle invalid game states:

The lastgamereplay file is still created in the event of an invalid game state, so it is still possible to review the results of a match.  In the event of an invalid game state, players should attempt to resolve the issue exactly the same way as game crashes.  If you believe foul play occurred, submit the replay along with any screen shots, etc, as evidence and we will review.  If there is a CLEAR consensus that a team is willingly triggering invalid game states, that team should be disqualified after a thorough review of the facts. Please be reasonable, though.  We all know that Demigod has its bugs and its still pretty easy to encounter an invalid game state even if no one has intentionally triggered it.  If your game does crash, it might be advisable to take a screen shot of the crash as proof.  Be aware that we know invalid game states can occur without any sort of foul play, so please be mindful when submitting requests for review. 

Prizes:

Outside of prestige in our small community, there is also a cash prize thanks to community contributions.  The total (and probably final) amount paid for this tournament is $200.  If you would like to contribute to the pot, please pm me and I'll get you the needed info to send me a payment.  If individuals do not come through on their pledges, I will not be personally covering the difference.  My goal is to collect the pledged amount before the tournament starts and I will be providing updates as I receive the pledged money.

Please thank our contributors and consider contributing to the prize yourself.

I loved the second replay. Koush used (basically) the BotS reg build I made up like the second week I played. Everyone thought my build was terrible, but I still say it's good 2v2. Snipe reg is kind of fail against Oak and Sedna and late game when everyone has bishops that instantly heal off your snipes. Don't get me wrong, that will take away their heal for a few moments, but it just isn't as good as a regulus with infinite mana who blows through creeps without wasting his mines.

yeah that was a good practice and influenced our decision making for the tourney a lot :) . However, you on the other side of the world, I blame the lag a lot for my deaths... but maybe you and soccermom should jump in on the next tourney ;-)

How so? TB counters rook and Beast counters Queen.

Early game it would be kind of rough, but past level 10 the game goes to Beast + TB even though they have no monks.

Frost nova + rain of ice fucks the shit out of tower farms, and spit + grasp + ooze rapes everything. Every time they double up in a lane they can push and they have good creeping AoE abilities.

someone did not watch the replays^^

Anyway a blood queen with mulch just becomes unkillable in the end. And it takes for ever to kill a rook in his towers. Also think about how hard it is without monks. And till beast and tb reach the lvl to fight them all towers are gone :(

I don't think it's impossible, it's just freaking hard. Rook is a bastard on cataract...

 

Reply #812 from Stardock Forums Top

No, rook is a bastard on Levi when he poops towers.

He's pretty balanced on cataract.

Reply #813 from Demigod Forums Top

levi is so big though, you can pretty much just ignore him. On cata you can't :(

Reply #814 from Demigod Forums Top

If you can last till catapults, then a rook doesn't really cause any trouble.

Reply #815 from Demigod Forums Top

You can't really ignore the hammer slam. The towers are still useful, especially with staff of renewal. The problem is that a tower farm will go away really quickly if you don't guard it non-stop, which isn't really possible when you're running around fighting for portals. Rook's greatest ally is time. If you let him set up his farm, he will be hard to push out. It's best not to leave a rook alone in a lane or you'll probably need the whole team to unseat him.

I am only responding to tourney players, and Zen agrees with me so..

Reply #818 from Demigod Forums Top

a tb does not fuck up a rook 1v1.  Gz you can take down a set of towers @ lvl 10 in 40 seconds lol if you're ice / hybrid.  Unfortunately, he can just keep dropping them, and the whole time his trebs are destroying other towers while you're off not getting xp... and if you ARE getting xp, he's taking your side flag.

A TB & UB can do a pretty good job against a Queen and a Rook. Just need some patience and coordination.

But yes, a Rook has no trouble against a TB unless the TB decides to get deep freeze, then it's kinda annoying.

I know I said I would only respond to tourney players but this comment in particular annoys me.  When the hell have you ever played a 2 vs 2 against a good Queen and Rook as UB + TB?  Are you randomly commenting on things you have no idea about again?

I think so, but don't have case by case info or anything.  don't remember much off the top of my head... anything SUPER game changing?  - don't think so.  Will the next tournament be using uberfix?  Yes.  I know uber made a difference especially to oc users and likely qot users that mulch.
