:setsuki: :pschip::psfist: :grave: What an opening game! Whittle him down to 30ish without taking a hit, then take 50 from 5AAA, eat a Q to go to 10, then decide to go all in and pump K with Joker for lethal damage into a facedown which turns out to be real, and finally clash Qs for the end.
:setsuki: :psfist::pschip: :grave:
:setsuki: :psfist::pschip: :grave: I forget exactly how these two middle games went down, but it was really close in both.
:setsuki: :psfist::pschip: :troq: I have set point with plenty of games in hand for counterpicking the bull, so I’m not too worried. Still, he gets maximum hyuk without too much trouble, then I duff almost silent BU with A and manage to squeeze out a super close finish.

@snoc wins 3-1 (with one game advantage)! Man that was a tense set, well played and I’m super happy to reach my best IYL result yet! Video is uploading below.

*4-3. I only needed to win 3 games to clinch it.

Man, every game but game 4 was so close. Grats to @JonnyD for clutching it out.

cpat, the match is scheduled for the 20th. On the plus side, maybe all those @JonnyD fans will show up on the wrong day.

Yeah but it is the midnight of the 21st for UTC. For the US, it is on Wednesday though.

sharpobject advances over migohunter by TO decision (in true MSS fashion).

congrats @sharpobject on that decisive victory being a game down over @migohunter . Being at a game disadvantage must have been hard to deal with.

Most of these games were a slow grind, except for game four where I went very aggressive to shake things up.
Snoc and I have played many times, but it’s usually pretty close. I don’t think I’ve ever come out this ahead before.

Basically,
I’m a Rook main guys.

Sad to blow out in such a spectacular fashion, but I’m pretty sure this is my best IYL performance yet. Some rather rusty Gloria play in there, switching back to Setsuki at the end for less painful counterpicks in the dream world where we bring it back.

ggs.

@JonnyD , I left abruptly because I have a difficult time focusing for the duration of the match. I almost always leave immediately win or lose. It is a fight until I can take flight mechanism.
