Not the semifinal I predicted and therefore I am very interested in how this plays out. I think LHDD has been having a "resurgence" if I may even call it that, but OSA had such a strong showing against TOP that I wouldn't be surprised to see a very even war again.
Well ladies and gents.
THOTA, KORT, TSM, TOFU, AFOS, FALL
One of you will be the seventh clan ever to make it to a Cup final. Very nice that it will be a first no matter who wins.
It was CC3. We faced KORT in the semi, Then AFOS in the final.
I can't remember who they faced in the Semi, but must have been brutal, cause they were spent, and started to fall apart.
A bit like ourselves in CC4 after giving everything to beat ACE. Kort destroyed us.

Funny how that can work. I think in CC5 the hard path sharpened Fallen, but in CC6 it exhausted them, like CC3 & CC4.

May the best clan win.
Best case scenario is a LHDD win, that way it's our first presence in the finals and a first loss in semis for OSA
Everybody wins

I'm not sure OSA would agree with your analysis
But a vigorous tossing of dice on your behalf may convince them otherwise!
Whoever wins this is going to have to step up their friendly banter & trashtalk game.
We can't have a dead finals thread, that just won't do!
Get it together guys
very close war. for the moment score is 12-11 for LHDD with same number of games decided for each clan. For 1st set, it will be a tigh score.
2nd set will be the decider!
I won't complain about dices here. But I'm very surprised. In most of my games the dices have been extreme.
In one side or in the other, I'm not talking about any advantage on one side.
I achieved a 22v2, I've seen 13v1, many 0v8, and so on.
This war is a bit frustrating, as I get the feeling that most of my games have been decided by dices instead of strat.
