Assault Showmatch! Sunday, October 26th

Postby frauenarZt » Thu Oct 23, 2014 11:50 pm





- United Kingdom
Image
Widely considered to be the most unstoppable Assault player of all time. Wish is a fragger so masterful he can drop 300 frags in an hour and has recorded over 500 frags in a single 7-map PUG. Even when rusty he is a master of defense, and one of the most clever attackers, Wish is feared by his enemies and loved by his teammates. Look for him to be keeping his opponents on their toes with a variety of tricks, brilliant positioning, clever tactics, and accidentally suiciding on top of key objectives when he has 100 armor.
Wish Highlights:


- United Kingdom
Image
Although Twnz has been playing on his claptop and on a Hello Kitty brand desk too small for a preschooler, he is still the most active and formidable opponent in PUGs. Twnz is well-known as a reliable fragger, second only to w1sh, his uncanny ability to get final objectives in the last seconds using his BunnyTracks skills and what can only be assumed to be stoneskin bounce hacks. Another veteran of Assault, Twnz knows what it takes and will do what it takes to win.
Twnz Highlights:


- United Kingdom
Image
Although he plays in the shadow of Wish and Twnz, Sphere is among the most versatile players in Assault. Sphere is a perennial ^nomic who still features some of the best comms, and is the most solid back defender in the game. Although Sphere is an excellent top-tier fragger, his all-around skills completing highly-technical launches and playing a diversity of positions give his team a leg up on Twnz and Wish.
Sphere Highlights:


- Sweden
Image
DJ considers himself to be the most famous Unreal Tournament player of all time, when everyone else knows it's actually . He made a name for himself as one of the starting players in >SwaP<, one of the premier clans during UTAssault's heyday. During PUGs you can often find DJ standing behind other players and shooting them in the back, a tactic known as "DJ-ing." DJ will do his best to live up to his ego in any chance he has to be in the spotlight, and everyone else on the server will be doing their best to stop him.
DJ's Highlights:


- United States of America
Image
Playing on 130 ping is a disadvantage for anyone but Wish. Competing on 130 ping is foolish. While not expecting to frag as well as EU players, smant can put up top mid-range frag numbers and provide his team with an asset tactically as one of the best launchers in the game, solid comms, and an ego almost as big as DJ's (who he is definitely better than).
smant Highlights:


- Germany
Image
Another veteran of -{Mi5}-, eRt is a solid player who will hold the line for his team. Look for his teamwork with former -{Mi5}- alums Twnz or Wish, and his often under-appreciated teamplay. His menacing defense will be a big advantage to any team he's on.
eRt Highlights:


- Portugal
Image
The WORLD RECORD holder of the Unreal Tournament Godlike speedrun is one of the unsung heroes of Assault. His carefree attitude, special tactics, and solid defensive abilities make him a major asset to any team, and a challenge for any other team to face.
Cyborg Highlights:

- USA
Image
Jaybone is quite easily one of the worst players to ever be allowed to install Unreal Tournament. While he is his team's biggest weak point, he is also Twnz's Achilles heel. Look for Jaybone to suicide into a wall every time he gets rockets, causing Twnz to laugh hart and suicide as well, giving Twnz's opponents an edge. :P

Nice assault gets some airtime, definately worth the watch. Saw Smant stream some pugs a while ago, really entertaining and high skilled.

My most sincere apologies for the issues with the server setup. There was a last-minute reset to the server to help get pugstats working. Due to the shitty hosting company I chose to go with (Gameservers) to save myself some money, the configuration got borked and deleted configuration. Again, this fuckup was horrible and I apologize. A lot of things got done a bit too last-minute due to me working 50+hrs a week, so I'd like to truly show my appreciation for everyone who put up with this, particularly the casters from OwnedWell for granting Assault some additional exposure and everyone who participated to make this event ultimately resemble some form of small success in the wake of my server failure.

No need to apologize, man! We all know unpredictable things can happen. It's online gaming! I had a great time casting those games, even though I made some pretty hilarious screw ups (like watching an already completed objective :OWfacepalm: ). Despite the slight delays and missed coverage I think we still showed some pretty exciting moments and the furious paced nature of assault. We should definitely do it again sometime!

for what we did see. it was a pretty exciting game and I've always been a fan of assault and hopefully it'll have a bigger following in UT4.

The Assault portion of the show is now on the YouTubes. Big thanks to Smant and the UTA guys for turning up and putting on a show. It's a shame that we ran into some technical difficulties with the servers and misses some fancy footwork in the game but I can see both of those issues being improved in time. We had a great time casting and hopefully this isn't the last time that Assault graces the stream.
