Relegated down to the elimination bracket, both Order Me Another Guinness and the Cult need strong and consistent play from here on out in order to stay alive in MWC01.  After taking care of Meta, OMAG faces a stiff challenge in their matchup with tc, who lost by the narrowest margins against Monkey Island in a controversial top bracket match.  

All three sets of films are must watches.  They feature fine team play and a great exhibition of coordination.  OMAG has gone a long way since their QR loss to MCC (which i reviewed), as they gave tc quite a challange.  Unfortunately, it wasnt enough as tc gave the drunkards their own brand of religion.  MVP honors is shared by Lord Squeak of tc and Ailil of OMAG.  Squeak provided this matchups play of the game with a sneaky back door dwarf in game one that prevented an OMAG capture.  Ailil, though on the losing team, provided excellent play in the two games he was in, sporting top damage for team OMAG

Game One - [Capture the Flag] [Caer]

tc cries out their battle cry "swarm!!," while a few "hoochie mama's"  are screamed in between.  Have you ever seen the movie The Ladies Man?  That movie was a barrel of monkeys.

Both teams go with practically the same units and provide a three prong attack.  For about 5 minutes of the game, the N and S armies of both sides go in a stand still while the two mid armies jockey back and forth for position.  In a blink of an eye, the action begins.  Judas attempts to take OMAG's mid army with a coordinated pus/archer attack.  But, the OMAGs manage to repel the attack, counterattack with their own pus, and manage to drive Judas and his 4 unhealthy arcs back to land.  Meanwhile, with a stockpile of pus handy, Almighty Bob And Trev of tc manage to completely destroy OMAG's North army.  OMAG's mid pushes at the same time tc's North pushes.  OMAG's South army retreats back to the home base to defend, with tc's S army following closely behind.  tc puts the smack down on OMAG's offense with excellent defense.  With the combination of an uphill advantage and Copper's over aggresiveness, tc manages to take out half of OMAG's offense faster than an Al Gore facial expression.  The other half, controlled by the talented Lord Stanley, is massacred by an excellent back door play by a Lord Squeak controlled dorf.  At the same time pus manages to reach LS's group of arcs and one dorf, Squeak sneaks a dorf behind some trees to surprise LS with a bottle of ignited bacardi.  With OMAG's offense gone, tc takes out their D, although they had a hard time doing so, and captures the flag

Game Two - [Flag Rally] [Lichen]

Have you ever noticed that crazy people dont think theyre crazy?  Im talking about the run of the mill wackos who populate your day.  They think they're "quircky" or "high maintenance", but they rarely realize that they are nuts.  

Both teams go with nearly the same units, with tc trading for more dorfs. Both teams go with a two prong attack.  Odyn and Ailil do an excellent job in the South.  Odyn manages to sneak his army around the converging tc army and take out and tag their SE flag.  He proceeds to their home base, where he eliminates their D and tags their flag to bring the match to imminent victory.  In the meantime, tc manhandles OMAG's North army controlled by Da Minion and Lord Stanley.  OMAG then loses their home flag due to its skimpy defense.  Basically, both teams tagged 5 flags apeice, with OMAG tagging their 5 first.  The two temple flags have yet to be tagged.  At this point in the game, tc is up 50 to 42 in unit percentages.  OMAG guards their flag with their lives while tc goes aggresive on offense.  Ailil does an excellent job holding the flag against an aggresive tc offense.  After several annoying mentions of lag, tc's offense goes down and OMAG wins by a hair

Game Three - [Assasin] [If I Had a Trow...(NUT)]

In pregame planning, Judas decides to name his trow "Burt Reynolds."  With the mention of that talented actor, an uncontrollable tingle runs down my spine.  If Reynolds and Ernest Borgnine ever decide to team up in Broadway, you know ill be sitting in the front row on opening night with a bag of popcorn and two corn dogs on my lap.

OMAG decides to stash their villagers in the mid hill.  Very bad idea.  tc keeps their boys at the starting hill.  While OMAG has no offense at all except a roaming trow, tc has a mid sized army converging North, a myrk pack from behind, a roving trow, and a mid sized army in the mid.  All armies converge on the OMAG hill, and a performance of excellent lock and mortar control is displayed.  Both teams go back and forth with fireballs and mortar.  tc, coming from 3 directions, gets the best of OMAG.  They manage to trim down OMAG's army down to 50% while conserving 76% of their own.  But, despite the large margin, OMAG is still in the game.  Not one of their villagers was touched, they still have 2 locks and 2 mortar dwarves, AND tc's trow is down to its last pixels.  OMAG decides to send an army on offense.  It goes through the mid bridge where Gallows Pole informs his comrades of the advancing army:

Gallows Pole: They're sending D

Three seconds later, a wight appears from the deep water.  OMAG offense, gone.  At the same time, Shadownite manages to lose his trow to tc's Defense.  tc pushes OMAG's D hard and manages to kill off their villagers with 4 light footed mauls.  OMAG played tough, but they couldnt catch any breaks from this well practiced tc army.

In conclusion, Heidi Klum rhymes with boom, boom, never eat peanut butter with cod liver, and the spork will be next year's apple computer.
