Good afternoon everyone,
This year's top games were honestly all about the map of Polypoid being mined out. As per usual, this list is tough to do every year but here is what I have come up with as our Top 10.
#11: 2v2 on Polypoid 9/8/23[36:37]
Players: SpaceDominator, Dave, Hydro, FBS
Reason: A solid 2v2 that just sort of fit the mold of the other games.
#10: 1v1 on Polypoid 3/25/23 [41:25]
Players: Hydro over SpaceDominator
Reason: #10 on the list has been typically a 1v1 that was a bit more unique. This is Hydro's off race T vs SpaceDominator's off race Z that went on a while. While not exactly the greatest played game in the world, it was at least an interesting game.
#9: 2v2 on Polypoid 12/15/23 [23:49]
Players: SpaceDominator/Dave over Hydro/FBS
Reason: A bit more decisive of a game than that of our honorable mention game.
#8: 2v2 on Polypoid 10/27/23 [29:47]
Players: FBS/Kilahace over Dave/Raptor
Reason: An interesting 2v2 that included Raptor.
#7: 1v1 on Fighting Spirit 9/22/23 [28:24]
Players: Hydrowing over Dave
Reason: See above.
#6: 2v2 on Polypoid 11/3/23 [18:05]
Players: SpaceDominator/Dave over Hydrowing/Kilahace
Reason: A game in which Kilahace goes P, cannon rushes me, I move out to the natural and we still win.
#5: 2v2 on Vermeer 3/3/23[29:49]
Players: SpaceDominator/Dave over FBS/Hydrowing
Reason: One of the better games that we had that wasn't played on Polypoid.
#4: 2v2 on Polypoid 9/8/23 [44:24]
Players: Hydrowing/FBS over SD/Dave
Reason: Solid played 2v2.
#3: 3v3 on Ancient Bridges 3/3/23[30:15]
Players: SpaceDominator/Kilahace/FBS over Polarity/Ramvid/Dave
Reason: I think it's only fair that our 3rd best game was the best 3v3 that was played over the course of the year.
#2: 2v2 on Polypoid 7/15/23 [51:44]
Players: Hydrowing/FBS over SpaceDominator/Dave
Reason: Solid game that looked as if it was venturing on the order of a draw. However, our second longest game of the year would have ultimately ended with a decisive result. This game could have been argued to be the #1 game.
#1: 2v2 on Polypoid 12/1/23 [1:03:32]
Players: Hydrowing/Kilahace over SpaceDominator/Dave
Reason: Despite the fact that this game slowed almost down to nothing at the end, it did contain an ultimate stalemate that was won by Hydrowing and Kilahace. Honestly it's one of the only games that I've actually had some direct second thoughts about that I can remember.
