Results of this time!
For newbies; Akamarucup is a BO3 practice tournament, held by Akamarured (Panda Global).
Check the other article for more details.
Winning prize was Granblue Fantasy Versus (GBVS) closed beta test key, and 22 participants checked in.
There were more Puppet Lishenna Portal than last time, I think.
SWISS ROUNDS
Last time's champion autoaim (SSG), participant for WGP grand finals Hishiro (REV) made it to the top 4.
Players that scored over 4 wins went through to the single elimination tournament this time.
FINALS
Arz21 (IEV) had conceded, so 3 players left.
And finally, the only one marked 5-0 in Swiss Rounds, hithatz won the tourney.
Congratulations, omedeto.
STATS
Most picked classes
So, Midrange Sword and Lion Haven are still stably strong for BO3, and those 2 were are the top 2 classes here, too.
I also confirmed Spell Rune with "Despondent Chimera", or Arcus Shadow in the rounds.
Win rates of decks
This time, there seemed to be no Forest.
As I lost 5 battles with Portal, perhaps I was the one who lowered its win rate. lol
AT THE END
It was later time tourney than last time, for SVO participants in Europ North America.
That's what practice is, and good decision I think.
More than a half of participants brought Sword, and there was a battle continued around 20 turns.
Same as RAGE, this could be the difficult point to hold a tournament.
Because of the game system, hosts cannot control the time for each match.
Could be the tournament running task forever...
Thanks Aka for those opportunities, I'm looking forward to next week.
Personal Results
I brought Belphomet Puppet Portal and Mech Blood.
...With a little editing from the last lists.
- Easy win with Mech Blood. Won in 2-0.
- Missed the counts of destroyed Machina Followers, and faild to initiate "Alpha Drive". Super regret... am I a beginner?? Lost in 1-2.
- Portal didn't go well, lost in 0-2.
- Also Portal went wrong and lost in 0-2.
- Another miss in Blood, and Portal got defeated by this. Lost in 1-2.
Made deadly mistakes during the rounds, wish I could rematch especially rounds 2 and 5.
Finally placed 2nd from the bottom... humph.... hmmm....
Instant deck introduction
Portal this time, was structured to remove "Belphomet, Lord of Aiolon"'s instability.
But apparently, this decision made the deck more unstable.
Should focus on lethal with "Destruction in Black" or "Purgation's Blade".
Belphomet and his divines are not main lethal weapons...
On the other hand, Mech Blood went quite well in all battles.
Maybe I won't lose with this deck (just my imagination).
I'll write the other article about Blood deck.
Have a nice weekend.
