So who won or is it still going on? (I'm not home)

Alumni won it all.

I was glad to see Alumni win, even though this guy Thallen is a clown.

I love the storyline "Who can take these guys down"

I hope they never stop.

not doing it, I'm not one of these people who say they aren't going to do it for 3 months then end up doing it
I'll do it again whenever the format changes or whenever the new guild thing launches

shouldn't be hard for Holy to win Mixed

Dude why'd you lie? I just dont get it. If you're doing gst, just say so. Why lie? And Holy wasnt even close to winning this time

I'll air out the situation step-by-step since some of you are probably cluelessly memeing about it in your Kik chats:

1. We commit to only entering the iDevice GST, because we'd like for that team to try and compete for our 12th win
2. Pkun and Shiden remain inactive, but we trust that they'll be active closer to the GST
3. They aren't
4. Sarah doesn't want to be with inactive players that won't even communicate what's going on (understandable)
5. Sarah asks to do Mixed and I agree because she's a friend and has done a lot for the guild
6. We have to recruit 2 players because our usual Mixed players already have teams
7. I recruit John and Austin because I think both are pretty good
8. Shiden tells us he can't be on for the GST because he has work, and Pkun still hasn't logged on to do anything other than accept his GST invite
9. Now we have to recruit even more new people, this time for our iDevice team

There you go

Anyone acting like this was some ploy to weaken other teams is either stupid or trolling - if we wanted to win the Mixed GST we'd have just entered with our originals
We wouldn't have even entered on the Alumni tag if we knew we'd be bailed on, and it's cool so far that John, Austin, and Sw@nk have offered to help

I just don't understand, instead of explaining all of this nonsense, why didn't you just say nothing?._.  

Summary of idev spars:
Alumni>VIS, Alumni>Bello, Alumni>Trollin. Bello>Silver, Bello>vDragz. vDragz>Deicide. Trollin>vDragz.  

I think I'll just put this here

Actually there were a few shout outs at the end lol

The fights were alright but I did see a few greasy spots a couple times. Kept seeing Crono warping in and out so I suppose he was front row as well seeing the same oddities

It was a bit... One sided to be honest

I was watching I device  

Deicide was the team we (XIL) probably had the most trouble with in practice imo at least, unlucky we had to vs. them so early. Was a really close match though. Hopefully we keep the same team around and get more than 1 week of practice.

I thought you guys would beat them. From my personal time gsing against both teams I struggled against you guys, where as against them I was solid. But at the end of the day some teams just match up well against others.

If we keep this roster, I could see us improving a lot next season. We just need time to work out our flaws

Anyways, my biggest upsets...
iDev: Bello beating Silver
Mixed: Simba beating GTEAM  

honestly, I thought deicide would get farther but they ended up losing to vdragz, shoutout to nattie u destroyed those guys, shoutout to Marc for best gst performance to date, also shoutout to Kin cus she basically carried her guild to 4th place  

Biggest upsets
I got a gst hat
Bello beat silver
Alumni fought Cherry early
Holy Knocked out second round
Kin got fourth

Lol @ last one. Literally a 4v5 every match just hearing that.  

I call this picture. Cornered  

their pressure was so good, had almost every team they sparred trapped in a corner
definitely the best teamwork out of any Mixed or iDevice team this GST

it's hard for them because most have a different first language, but I try to talk to them individually and make pictures/videos to help explain

So Alumni officially retiring or going for more wins?
