Hope you Enjoy.

We search for a GvG (15v15 – 20v20) on tuesday and/or thursday.
Alternatively we can do a sparring to try different setups from 15v15 to 20v20. So if you want to stay in shape or if you new to GvG and wanna try it contact me, it’s no problem to explain the rules.

Good luck to Vizunah, Gonna be a boring week for you i guess. You can pm Devon Carver and thank him for this wonderful matchup system.
RC/VZ/PS 16/08/2015
RC?
On topic: Best wishes for the match-up, everybody. We already had some tough clashes this morning on EB, they were quite fun.
Still, I don’t understand how we ended up with these bi-weekly scheduled matches against Vizu. There goes my hope for a more lazy week…

Oh great VZ again…
at least PS is also here so its gonna be a entertaining Matchup Thread, starting with the title.
Hi,
our team [RUN] on Vz is looking for some GvG this week : 10v10, 11v11 and 12v12 would be great. Feel free to send me a message here or in game.
Cya around,
Goodluck to all this week. Glad to finally meet you Viz, now only need BT for the full collection. RS it’s been a while, tbh i’ve actually missed you a little(not sure why but i have).
Well, sorry RS and VZ but you won’t get much of a fight from Piken this week.
It seems our zerg has melted to a handful of sad creatures standing around EB hoping a Commander might dare to light up. It’s (6pm Saturday in the UK – peak time)
There’s a similar handful on a couple of the borderlands making a half-hearted attempt at a camp or tower.
I wouldn’t worry about them. Just go ahead and have fun.

And what else did you expect? There is putting up a brave fight and there is Urinating against the wind.
People are sick of these kitten matchups.
Hello, Vizunah guys, i know that you missed GH
I saw many new tags and only few guys from guilds that i remember, but i guess your spirit ready to def your keeps against us, see you on borderlands.

Everyone being busy with zerging either the pavillion or champions may have a tiny bit to do with a drop in wvw population as well…

This is actually kind of funny. I just wish it would be more true than legend … (While you may still find the aforementioned carts, I oh-so-often miss the players manning them. :/ )
Also, I disagree, Piken is by no means without a chance in this match-up. Just look at the chart at MoS, and you will see that all three servers actually perform on kind of the same level when at full strength during prime time.

As someone who had the fate to fight Viz four times in the past 7 weeks (as well as Elona, Baruch, SFR, and other stronger servers), I can report that there is actually a lot of fun in a match-up even if you are doomed to end up on the loosing side. Put your efforts into achieving small victories, and I guarantee you that they will taste much sweeter when achieved against such strong opponents. Also, after they have already taken everything from you, they cannot punish you anymore if you trash something that they hold dear.
So, as the saying (almost) goes: “The only loosing move is not to play.”

Oh, We haven’t given up.
We know half-a-dozen piken are a match for 20 glass-cannon uplevels any day.
We get most of our jollies from zerg-busting and the actual scoresheet doesn’t mean a lot to us.
Still, it would be nice to be able to show what we can do when we have numbers up.
Cheers for a very nice GvG VM (Vizunah) was nice to finally get into the GvG Scene again really enjoyed it.

my greetings to the flamesword piken ele i fought at arahs today (couldnt spot your guild) – unfortunately those vizus came along. i think else the fight would have lasted forever ^^
always rdy for a rematch.
To our old buds on Piken. Sharing the genius that brought us Rocky in GW2, he now brings us another old classic. Enjoy. o/ all.
Maybe not the best place to ask, but I got curious while looking ahead towards future matchups/opponents/GvGs etc – I heard a rumour that FURY have left Piken? Truth?
Yes FURY is back on Gunnars Hold.
GoW is looking for a GvG tomorrow (Wednesday) we need to fill that spot, if intrested whisper me. (20v20 preferred)
Cheers to [VM] for the GvG yesterday!
props to VIS for the great fights yesterday in Piken Borders, also props to NOX for your fun ninja attempts

I looked at this and thought what a load of BULL. I am sorry but Picken is getting smaller by the week there are several reasons for this but getting the kitten kicked out of you week after week be some overpopulated server is not fun and when you try and upgrade your side to have it rolled over with a blink of an eye is not fun, we do not want it easy but we need to have someo kind of a chance and facing server with much higher population is not going to help the matter.
As you will have seen this week there has been little fight back from picken because people are fed up with it.
This match up bull needs to be looked at, as it is grossly unfair for med servers to face nearly full severs it seems that you want easy mtches a side to kick around well all that will happen is more people leave the lower severs.
As far as i can see there are 3 different server med, high and very high so who in the right mind thought it would be good to have a med server vs a high and very high which has happened several times.
Maybe stop letting people outside EU playing on EU servers, I dont know what the answer is but anything has to be better than this.

What? In terms of nightcapping, we’ve been nightcapped before, and it’s nothing new.
And in terms of population, we are medium populated, but our WvW community is perfectly fine number wise, and I’ve been having a lot of fun this matchup.
wvw comm on rs isn`t that high esp on matchups like this. piken are doing very fine against both and your great guilds are recognized as such. no need for frustration there, cause i dont think you want the easy way either.
Imo this bracket is quite difficult for Smallscalers or smaller Guilds which like runnin with the zerg as hell, cause with the vizublobb arround you don´t have a chance to do some smallscale – so I can generally understand why someones are bored and not really lucky with this bracket.
But if you´re runnin with the zerg (which was arround 30-40 people at the maximum) you can have a bunch of fun and loot, when vizunies are imploding or rc´s are trying to stand their ground in their role as the filling of the sandwich.
We fought Viz 4 times the past 7 weeks, so in all honesty, aint you having the role of filling the sandwich?
“filling of the sandwich” depends on your 2nd position, gettin pressure from our side and from the vizzies, but never mind, the week is over and hopefully next week will be better

I am sorry that you feel that way, but I still stand by my statement. Riverside is not necessarily a server with a high (WvW-)population either, and as soon as we and end up with T1/T2 opponents, many of our “Schönwetterspieler” flee WvW way faster than they were ever able to run when the goal was to defend a tower. However, even when facing de-facto defeat, there are ways to find your satisfaction in the game by focusing on achievable goals.
I certainly know, since only last Sunday, I was part of the defense of Ogrewatch for over 6 hours. Vizunah wanted that tower, and we were dedicated to not let them get it. They constantly tried to siege us, they pulled each and every trick of WvW siege play, they knocked at our door multiple times, they even got our wall treb’ed down to 20% at one point (treb’ing from ogres and SM simultaneously) but we defended that tower. I made a net loss of about ~4g due to tower upgrade cost and buying superior siege equipment from the TP, and the tower went down once our guild took a break for a guild mission some hours later. But, heck, this was a helluva fight and a great display teamplay from both our offensive and defensive forces, and the satisfaction to deny Vizu its prize was oh-so-sweet.
<forced break to keep forum from kittening up my text in a crazy way, please read on>
As said above, I am sorry if this is not a viable way of gaming for you, but I certainly had one of the best WvW weekends in weeks.
As you will have seen this week there has been little fight back from picken because people are fed up with it.
I don’t agree, Piken did a fair job fighting back through the week. Maybe Piken wasn’t dominating through manpower and quality guilds in the same way as we used to know them, but they were still playing decently.
