In a rematch of the ATXVI finals, Hydra face off against Vydra in the Bo3 elimination bracket finals.
[19:09:29] Micky Nox > oops
That about sums it up - Hydra took the PERFECT counter-comp to what Vydra were planning and they wipe the floor early. More action yet to come!
Planet👏 6👏dies👏V0LTA👏win
V0lta take an ECM-rush team vs the Hydra kiting drone setup. MJD beacons were used well by both teams to evade tackle, but Ctrl Freak in the Maller shows why tackle is important at all stages of the game.
V0lta goes to the grand finals!!!!
#ATXVII
Planet 6 dies, V0lta wins - it is known 🤣
These two tournament juggernauts, V0lta and Hydra, brought the DEEPS to #ATXVII with similar setups. Six Barghests pumping out damage, but Annie Gardet in the V0lta flagship was the lone survivor.
So. Much. Damage.
It's a cap party in the center of the arena!
Hydra show off something new with a cap-transfer Golem core, taking a game off of V0lta in the first best-of-three winner's bracket semifinals.
Hydra can't field those ships again in the next match. Can V0lta take it to three?
Who needs logistics?!
Rote Kapelle took a max damage, no logistics setup against VYDRA and started to trade Battleships.
VYDRA didn't flinch in the face of oppressive damage, switched to support wings, and finished off Rote amidst crazy amounts of wreckage.
WAFFLES get pancaked 100-0 by Hydra & their flagship Barghest
Hydra take the perfect comp and execute it convincingly over the fan-favorite WAFFLES teams.
WAFFLES get sent down to the elimination bracket, as Hydra cruise on.
It's a slugfest!!
Rote Kapelle get sent to the elimination bracket by a V0lta team showing that they are here to win.
Tikktokk Tokkzikk in the Hyena gets crucial tackle early on, buying V0lta an early lead.
There was no looking back after that.
Boom! Headshot
Vydra BARLEY hold on vs Odin's Call triple Sliepnir comp thanks to Alex Lenin Skybreaker piloting. Worth just one point, he weaved in and tackled the Odin's Call logistics just long enough for Nika NOisER to arrive and apply the secondary tackle.
Templis have fallen!
Local is Primary overcome the pre-season favorites in the elimination bracket and send TheLastSparton and Templis home!!!
Xiaoyi Tsuruomo in the flagship Nightmare managed to dodge tackle, sneak in, and tackle the Templis Oneiros.
Final match of the day did not disappoint! Odin's Call have Boundary Experts' number and sends Avery Lewis' flagship Barghest to the wrecking machine. Great play by all teams today and we can't wait for tomorrow. Tune in LIVE tomorrow 14:30 UTC for the final day of #ATXVII!
Don't call it a comeback!!
Tournament juggernauts VYDRA RELOLDED have just eliminated former champions Tuskers from #ATXVII in an absolute NAILBITER of a match!
Nika NOisER pilots Vydra's flagship and squeaks out a points win in this heavyweight matchup.
#ATXVII #EVEOnline
Darkside take the lead, but Damassys Kadesh and the Local is Primary squad recover and utilize their flagship Nightmare to perfection!!
Local is Primary have to take on Templis next. Which team do you think is better poised to win?
Holy ECM!
Psychotic Tendencies bring a triple Scorpion control team vs an exceptionally tanky Templis Hyperion & Blackbird squad.
TISHU took #ATXVII by storm and upset team after team - but Templis hit their groove and look in peak tournament form!
Always 👏 bet👏 on👏 WAFFLES!
Waffles' drone control comp stays alive and breaks Boundary Experts' Leshak comp, sending the Boundary Experts into the stacked elimination bracket. We'll see Waffles tomorrow, and Boundary Experts later today!
Rematch of the ATXVI finals - Hydra vs Vydra in the Battle of Barghests!
Insane amounts of damage applied, but Hydra come out on top with their shield variants over Nika NOisER's armor Barghest comp.
The elimination bracket now has three former champions. Yikes!!
V0lta remain in the winner's bracket, not showing a new setup in their commanding win over Darkside's out-of-the-box control team.
Faffywaffy did manage to sneak into V0lta's support wing, but it wasn't enough as V0lta's positioning and target calling was immaculate
Psychotic Tendencies drop into the elimination bracket at the hands of Rote Kapelle's kiting drone comp.
Psychotic Tendencies take on Templis later today at 20:40 - given their proclivity for upsets, we're not sure who is going to be favored in that one!
The Network pushes tournament favorites Templis to the absolute EDGE. Holy pancakes, what a match!!!
TheLastSparton in the flagship Barghest carries the team in a very tough win.
The Network will be on everyone's radar next year, for sure! Sad to see them go from #ATXVII
Deepwater Hooligans get Vulture'd out of Alliance Tournament XVII by the Local is Primary triple Vulture comp.
We love how the meta is shifting this week!
o7 Deepwater Hooligans, we look forward to seeing you next year.
Just like that, the Hidden Leaf has left Alliance Tournament XVII!
Local is Primary advance with an unconventional rail Vulture setup over Baltrom and the gang. A great tournament run without a doubt, and we look forward to their next great name!
