Undefeated Streak ends 75-0 :(

[Ellay]

Well it was bound to happen, wanted to push to see how far I could go without losing. Ended up at 75-0 before taking the first loss.

I plan to do more this evening when the queues are better and more teams around my rating are online. At this rating wait 20 minutes for 0 and 1 point games in the morning and afternoon.

So this is what I'm at now, I'll keep you guys updated ^^ Currently at 21st in Ranking of all teams on the battlegroup, will push for top 10 this coming week.

[crebble]

do you get your main focusfired by the other high rated teams?
seems like they try that wery often from what ive seen.

edt gz to the win streak aswell :P

[Tamu]

Grats Ellay! Do you have any new vids to share with us? :thumbsup:

[Ellay]

I guarantee you do NOT want to see my 45+ min matches running around an LoS object :P
It's hard to fraps the fights when actual combat is 3 minutes but there is about a 20 min waiting period kind of like in Boxing where they throw small punches checking their range.

[crebble]

yeah i have had a couple of those aswell! really sucks.
actually lost 2 games just because of los and ressurection! shouldnt be able to drink or ress in arena! if you die YOU DIE :thumbsup:
well its going better now since ive gotten some gear tho i really badly need a more dedicated healer with more than 30 resi...

[Xzin]

I love the arena team name :) Incredible work Ellay!

[dujow]

Ellay these pictures of ur teams confuse me. They are showing season stats, not weekly. Your played games are not equal to the season games. Plus your personal rating does not reflect the team rating. Can u explain?

[Toned]

He's a team hopper... he joins teams to help them get their rating up :P

[yarr]

lol that's crazy... you can get 0 points sometimes? should get at least 1 point for winning =P

[dujow]

Well its confusing because he says he went 75-0 with that team, yet he only did 20 or so games.

[Ellay]

I swap teams.. a lot :P basically just have another character hold the team while I play on a different one and I come back to them.

So if I leave that team, it will drop my personal record and start me at scratch when I come back - but the team rating stays the same~!

[bodefeld]

Impressive.
I have made my own arena team yesterday after dinging 70. Properly, I named it (translated) "I am not quite sure". And that pretty much sums it up. Got whacked badly..

Keep it up!

[dujow]

I see Ellay, thx for clearing that up! :thumbsup: great work btw

[Notes]

Alot / most none multibox players prolly won't ever get a record like that ! Awesome job oO!

:thumbsup: :thumbup:

Grats Man. Tell us a little about the fight. What happened to cause a loss.

[Monkofdoom]

Grats Man. Tell us a little about the fight. What happened to cause a loss.Indeed it'll be interesting to know the team make up / reason for the loss, especially as it seems you lost 2 within a few games, was it the same team ?

Great job on the wins though

[Ellay]

Yep it was the same team. I've beaten them many times in the past - their combo was triple healer and 2 DPS, a warrior/warlock. It should of been an easy win for me. First game I blew my instant cast on the Priest - he managed to get behind a wall with 1% hp left (124 hp), the warlock and druid were spamming out fear and cyclone rotations on my characters. The groundings didn't seem to help too much with the priest/paladin/druid being offensive with spells. The warrior was in a shield the entire duration, and the warlock was SL with a fel hunter. So there really wasn't any good targets to pick from. With MS on the warrior/warlock would slowly work my hp down to 50%~ and they were able to get a burn down on my main by having everyone on their team use some type of offensive spell. Priest was smiting, paladin was holy shocking, druid was moonfiring. Nonetheless I really shouldn't have lost the game in my opinion.

Second match loss was also against them. As soon as the gates opened my wife came in the room and distracted me long enough for them to rush in before I placed my totems on the bridge, a shaman got feared off - I had to jump off and lost my higher ground, and pretty much they had an optimal layout against me. All 3 healers were on top dashing back and forth via LoS, and Warlock/ Warrior weaving in and out of me. After they started CC rotation on me I wasn't able to recover.

I've beaten this team probably 6 or 7+ times, just made some mistakes on my side of who I should of prioritized as the first target which should of been the warrior or druid. Even though the warrior had a shield on it would have been better to burn through the spell reflect. Taking off 1 of their 2 dps and the MS which ultimately gave them the fight.

furi's team went 52-0 last week in 2v2... it made me a sad panda.

[Diamndzngunz]

(Shakes fist at wife)

Awww Ellay it's all good man. In my heart you really only lost 1.

Does a instant cast chain lightning/ instant crit followed by EarthShock not kill at least 1 target?

[Ellay]

Nope it doesn't :( They are sporting about 12k HP unbuffed, and they have Kings / Fort / Mark / Commanding Shout, so roughly about 15k HP or more, with 450~ Resilience, and other forms of mitigating damage such as Defensive Stance (-10%) Soul Link (-20%). In the high rating games, I try to get out a Lightning Bolt volley before I use my instant casts.

furi's team went 52-0 last week in 2v2... it made me a sad panda.What's his team makeup?

[Ellay]

Just played against the team that ended my Winning streak. I took them out in 2 minutes flat - revenge tastes so good. Which also places me at #15 on the battlegroup :) hoo-rah!
