Cogs Pick & Pun

[Swallox]

Puns will make this thread better? I find that hard to Swallow.

I will end you.

In other news... I don't think either me or qwerty can comment on these. Because we totally don't show favouritism or bias in our com*COUGH*OE/Muse5-0*COUGH*mentary.

Oh, Blugh. Sorry. I have a bit of a cold.

Match 2: The Gentlemen 5-0
Match 3: The Paddling 5-1

We're not that bad!

[N-Sunderland]

Match 1 Dover 5 to 3
Match 2 Brood 5 to 4
Match 3 Polaris 5 to 3

Match 1: Corvus 5-2
Match 2: The Gentlemen 5-0
Match 3: The Paddling 5-1

We're not that bad!

You can be one of the best teams in the world, but the Gents on Fjords are a force only stoppable by the Paddling.

Another thing is that I like predicting what I hope doesn't happen. That way if what I want to happen happens, then I think, "Oh, good!". If what I don't want to happen happens, then I'll think "Too bad. At least I made a good prediction"

And MNS got beaten on Duel 5-0, and they're certainly no slouches.

All through your salute whoring

[Mattilald Anguisad]

Admittedly I'm certain MNS could have done much better than they did in that match. Coordination didn't look as good as ussual and quad-carrorade dalleon is not good at killing other galleons - excelent against Pyras (i can attest to that) but not against galleons. Despite not being made for destroying armor, it can strip Pyra's Armor very fast and then light flak can deal with the pyras permahull. I salute zill for trying to change meta, but this time the combo just wasn't well tested and tried enough. Especialy with lumberjack-hawacha galleons on the other side.

My predictions:
Match 2: Gents 5-0
Match 3: Paddling 5-3 (Paddling just have that much more experiences)
Not predicting my own match.
As for MUSE vs OE: Muse 5-3

[Linen]

Match 1: Corvus Marauders 3-5
Match 2: Gentlemen 5-2
Match 3: Polaris Company: 5-2

qwerty's match: 4-5

[Skrimskraw]

I will refrain from betting on my own game.

but:

match 2: the gents 5-1
Fjords is a semi open map, if brood takes tha match head on, gents have shown time after time that they know how to react to that.

match 3: Polaris 5-2
Polaris is a rather new team, we dont know what they are capable of before this match is over, but experience tells my gut that they will take it.

Muse vs. OE : Muse 5-3
say what you will about muse, but they have become better this past month.

added point results.

good luck to everyone! See you saturday dover

Match 2: The Brood 5-0

(Always go for the high odds!)

[Linen]

Ok. Submissions are closed. Not to beat a dead horse but make sure you watch the Cogs streams for all the stats and some marvellous flying from all the teams.

After the stream I will post all the stats here so no one misses out. I will work as fast as I can to put up the leaderboard as well as find a weekly winner.

Also keep an eye out for the Cogs Tipping Competition Week 6 thread coming to you next week when the preview is up. There will be a few small changes but rest assured all your points will carry over for the season standings.

And to any new people joining us, don't be afraid to jump in next week! There's plenty of time to catch up in points and I may even throw a bonus point your way. Next Week Only.

Good luck to everyone!
