Guild Wars 2

1st score update of the night!

I want that WP at Mag Hills. Go away Mag. Go bother Yaks! =O

~ Kovu

Do you really not know that DB just got a crap ton of transfers from T1?

You guys know Dragonsbrand won by like 90k points or something…..? Db starts slow Mag and Yaks should already know that before this matchup is over DB will have lead by at least 90k

I would like to thank Mags and Yaks for the ton of badges when they tried to take our garrison in our home BL. That was quite fun. We thought we were done but we wiped yaks and then mags tried to come in rights after…and got wiped as well.

rB is not a ton of transfers :P we had maybe 12 of us there? Really good fights tonight guys had a blast!

EMP from Tier 1. Potentially MERC and FIRE. Those are just the 3 that are confirmed.

Has been a good reset all round. we know the DB zerg will turn the map green tonight but hell no one can change that so we know that DB will lead overall by the pvd method but good luck to them

Southeast camp in Maguuma borderlands just now. What was that Maguuma? Hitting us from behind and trying to get Yaks to flip the camp? Come do it yourself, stop relying on the scavengers. =D

If we got a bunch of T1 transfers I’m not seeing a difference in the ppt from last week.

Pretty awesome how Mag’s NA crew has been dominating the match so far, isn’t it? I wonder what their excuse will be this week… The new reset time screwed them over?

I like how you guys post stuff like this and we’re the PvF instigators.

Apparently, Mag didn’t know that EA owns Hills. Nice attempt at keeping us out but its ours now!! What’s your next strategy? Lose to Yak’s?

Dragonbrand (noun)
1. Bag dispensers

;P Nice try at your WK.

nice…DB BL is the only map that is queued up right now I WONDER WHY?

Why is DB BL the only one queued

Miss you guys at Mag, keep up the good work.

Gellor.6497:

Because people went there. That’s what the queue means.

Rifle/GS Warrior from WE in DB BL at NN just now. Good duels, I am glad you finally left the safety of your guards the second time

Also; Yaks.. you can keep fighting for second all you guys want. You will still end up in T4 within a month. But by all means, keep trying to side swipe mag

i don’t mind yaks. or db for that matter. but the same matchup each week does get old. they need a better way to cycle teams.

Maybe we don’t have Mag’s numbers and coverage, but who cares?, Yak’s Bend has demonstrated his skill level at every reset night. that’s enough for us, the score during the first 6~7 hours of reset night when even DB’s SEA guilds like TFV and NNK are present is at least a semi-accurate sign of skill, the rest of the week is just a coverage game.

Good night.

That’s an odd perspective, because the vast majority of Mag thinks Eternal is the boring one.

This is what Mag has been saying for months. Total score doesn’t really show anything, which is why we usually look for even fights or GvG instead. I don’t know why t3 suddenly cares so much about the total score so much.

I was thinking about it the opposite way. There is a reason why the matches are a week long, and not a day long.

There’s a reason why everyone hates how long the matches are whenever the subject of 2 week matches comes up. A system being in place does not mean that the system is good.

Great battle at Bay Keep in Mag BL. Though we had out-manned with only about 15 of us Yak’s defending the Lord’s Room, we held off the 20-30 Baguma and the 30-ish some Bagon Brand for a good 10 or so minutes inside the inner keep. Oh, and you have NO idea how happy we were when Maguma finally decided to accept our invitation to come into Bay, we were literally begging you to come through the downed wall.

The thing about 3 way fights is it’s never “my 1 held off 2 servers!” it’s more “there were 3 servers so the attacking 2 played cautious”

To anyone involved in the 3-way battle for Bay on Maguuma Borderland that occurred tonight, I salute you. After a 6 hour Mag siege of Bay, and our YB defenders dropping more siege than our moderate numbers could actually man, that was absolutely the perfect ending.

Attacked from both sides by Mag and DB, a three-way fight at the keep lord over 4 rounds, a partial cap by DB that got interrupted by Mag running back from Garrison and Yaks respawning on the waypoint tick at exactly the same time. A ballista on a boat even.

Mag won the keep, but I can’t imagine anyone coming out of that in a bad mood.

You mean tomorrow morning when our SEA starts playing. They are at work tonight. Some of our west coasters may stay up late. I guess we should recruit some guilds from Hawaii :-)

Storming a lot here and power is shakey so I was just roaming on DBBL for a long time on my necro and scoutin, had some good fights with WE members. Guardians op!

Then all the sudden 60 DB showed up to take back their keep. GG’d.

That’s really what most of the level-headed folk say anyway.

Look, every T3 matchup thread since SoS dropped has been the same: The weekend starts off and everyone’s having a good time, and then by Monday morning someone is crabbing that DB is leading only because of PvDoor. Throughout the week, a few of us try to say exactly what you said: the score doesn’t matter in the first place, just have fun (or if the score matters to you, feel free to transfer to JQ). By the end of the week a few DB trolls come out and pound their chests and pretend they’re the sole reason we’re winning.

I don’t know if it continues because people are stupid or they’re sadists, but it continues nonetheless. And I imagine this thread will be somewhat similar.

Yeah…this thread did not start like that at all.

Well Maguuma broke in first at north inner and were held of with our siege. then Dragon Brand broke down the south inner wall and begin pushing in, to which Maguuma pulled back to somewhere around their point of entry. Dragon Brand was pushed back twice (after their first push we rezzed the Keep Lord) before the managed to kill most of us off, after-which Mag moved back in to confront DB. At this time, the “Repel the Enemy Attackers” timer timed out and we all way-pointed back in, fought another good 5 minutes, which were probably the only moments of an all out free for all, before being wiped completely. So technically fending one server off at a time is still fending off two servers. Nonetheless, as my friend Famme stated above, it was a wonderfully fun battle that I’m sure was not only enjoyed by us Yak’s, but by DB and Mag as well.

yeah that was pretty crazy…trebs reigning down gas……I think we (DB) started building arrow carts on the walls inside the keep….

I thought yaks had it then the mag i mean the PYRO :X swarm stacked and came in full force….i died….

Some in-game chat from a commander on EMP. There’s at most 15 EMP transfers right now, with lots more coming. So rB (above) and EMP will increase our numbers, but it’s not a huge factor yet.

There is a zerg of EMP floating around. Our whole guild laughed when we saw the number 15. Someone is being lied to. But yeah, more will come.

Where? Was it DB BL within the last hour? Because if so I was tagging along with them, and 15 is an accurate number. Lots of others, from many known and unknown guilds, were following them.

More than an hour ago at this point. I’ve been here all night basically The more recent pushes on WK were more mixed.The first major push EMP made on DBBL was almost all EMP and I had to call in reinforcements…

I’ve heard from their members 5-10% have already transferred, which if their numbers on that Guild Listing site are correct, is already 40 people. They expect 30% to transfer or so. With the other guilds who have said they’re transferring, looks like DB is going to be the new Bandwagon. I feel bad for you, it was hectic and annoying when it occurred to Mag

Perhaps you’re right and the commander in EMP itself is wrong. One is more authoritative than the other, but who cares, right? I guess we should expect to see DB in T2 next week with this influx. Maybe we can compete there with the new folks, or maybe we can’t. I don’t see this new playerbase being able to compete in T1, which means eventually those guilds who transferred in will be searching for greener pastures elsewhere. Maybe we’ll see Mag in T3 again some day (I hope not, too much QQing about SEA and other numbers whining on the forums for my taste).

Several weeks ago Mag threw the T3 match and many Mags claimed they preferred the better roaming environment of T4. I too like roaming, and I’m concerned DB and T2 is going to be 24/7 zergs.

Hmmm… a few NA guilds joining DB. While this gives us coverage, this match up won’t be fun anymore due to heightened population gap Unless Yak’s and Mags decide to do 2v1. I guess I’ll havta try out one of those fight clubs, or stick to Fractals this week.

He might mean who is online at the moment, because he clearly had more before. Either that or they’re all mesmers with 3 clones up constantly :P

He said 15 transfers so far. No mistaking what he said. Hey if he had a zerg of 40 people, it’s possible that it was lead by 15 EMP with 25 non-EMP followers. It’s difficult to discern that. In my case, we had a huge zerg retaking Bluebriar and the entirety of EMP split off from the zerg to do “flank practice”. It was 15 people max.

Incredible fight! We were so excited for Mag to come in we made it rain siege blueprints. I’m pretty sure our bay defense gets better every reset, maybe it’ll be ten hours next time!

OH GOD!

Please go back and read the last thread. The pvd is actually BP/EA baiting maguuma every single morning and us not biting. Mag cares about winning fights.

The DB guys that know how to pvp, the DB guilds that know how to pvp, don’t post here and kitten it up with score bickering. Come morning, there will be more DB talking trash about points per tick, and more mag not caring.

When EA and BP want to talk about fights won/lost, then we’ll talk back.

Don’t be so clueless….Many people are just sick of your weeks and weeks and weeks of mouthin…Stop trying to play saint now because people are finally firing back….Soon as yall start cleaning up your act, others will follow

You don’t actually read the threads, do you

Hi guys. Just popped in to say the 40+ of us that have transfered so far are excited to be on Dragonbrand and look forward to gf’s in the coming weeks/months. It is going to take a couple of weeks before we are fully settled.

See you on the battlefield.

hope db likes being tryhard in T2, you guys have been asking for it, god knows why.
