PSL #3 :: 2nd Place
PSL #3 :: 2nd Place
Last weekend we participated in the newly formed tournament series that take place in Athens and Thessaloniki called PSL, (Paintball Super League).
The weather was perfect for paintball, and the grassy field was ready for us, unfortunately fieldwalking on Friday evening wasn’t ready for us, but everything was restored on Saturday morning.
The field didn’t allow aggressive moves, locking down key bunkers and zoning was the name of the game, something not of our style but... what can you do. We managed to pull moves but still weren't enough.
On Saturday we finished first in the preliminaries dropping two games to Nemesis (a team which played great games all day long) and to our friends ,the dogs. Placed first we got to play semis again with our friends the dogs, on Sunday things were different and we managed to advance to the finals with a 2-0 victory.
In the finals we faced Goblins, a final that has been repeated over and over with both sides smiling. The team from Thessaloniki had done their homework reading us well and locked us down the field perfectly cutting all moves and restraining us to our bunkers. This pressure forced us into making mistakes and causing us to loose the 1st game, we went back to win the 2nd, but the 3rd and crucial game was a repeat of the first, so the victory went to the Goblins.
Preliminary games, thanx and oscars goes to Nasos and Veta!
