The first ever Firebird DLC Tournament has just ended, with team Tarlahon emerging as victors!
Not only have they mastered the now ubiquitous Lightning Beam + 20mm Cannon combo, but they also managed to quickly adapt and find effective counter strategies.
Team Tarlahon will split the 1st place prize of $100.
Tar struck a chord.
Following closely, team Godos Greeb managed to hold their ground even during the extremely heated finals match, with the last match even exceeding 30 minutes of runtime. Even though outclassed by Tarlahon, they showed great proficiency with the DLC weapons.
Team Godos Greeb will split the 2nd place prize of $50.
Accidental rediscovery of sweeping beams.
After being rudely Cannon stacked by Tarlahon, Teeth & Feathers played admirably on the bronze match against Abrams, who put up a tight fight, with Taichu almost coming back from a 1v2.
Team Teeth & Feathers will split the 3rd place prize of $20.
Abrams revoking Teeth & Feathers' mine privileges.
While the other competitors could not make it to the podium, they still helped reveal some of the balancing of the DLC. Some of the first matches of the competition have quite possibly shaped the rest, with the top competitors grabbing some of their ideas for themselves.
We'd like to recognize everyone willing to put up a fight against some of the best players in all of Forts.
