Results against SBG Omega
This was our first clanmatch of the year for both teams on the Winged Warriors. For the first time in clan history both of the recently established teams, Pegasus and Phoenix played simultaneous clanmatches against two different teams from the SBG Omega clan. Below we have detailed accounts from Pastemaster of Team Phoenix about the games and brief sentences from Night Rider who tries to avoid the subject. Read on to find out how both teams faired.
- This clanmatch started on Tuesday, January 9th at 10:30pm central time.
- The approximate match duration including lobby time was 1hr 25min.
- There were a total of 10 games played in this match (1 CTF, 1 Assault, 1 Oddball & 2 Slayer each played by both teams).
- 16 players participated; 8 represented the Winged Warriors, 8 represented SBG Omega.
At the beginning both teams spawned at opposite sides of the map and immediately took defensive positions. We had control of the battle rifle tower and the Omegas controlled the sniper tower. The game progressed and kills were traded back and forth. Each team had control of one power weapon; we had control of the sword and they had control of the sniper rifle. Their superb sniping prevented us from effectively taking over the sniper tower, and our amazing sword slaying skill kept Omega out of the battle rifle tower. The game was a nail biter to the very end as the game winning kill was obtained by bart 008. This was the closest game of MLG Team Slayer we had ever experienced in a clanmatch.

The game began and MASbetty executed a ghost rush and was able to pull the flag out of the base, and with cover fire from his fellow warriors score the flag. The second round began and the Omegas made an all out rush for the flag, but we easily put it down. They then resorted to controlling both sniper rifles and kept us bottled up in our base for the remainder of the round. However, our rock solid defense held off the Omega offense and left them scoreless. The third round began and this time we decided to take it slower, and execute our flag toss. To our dismay the initial and subsequent attacks were dismantled and we were left scoreless in the round. The final round began and this time their flag rush was successful, allowing them to pull the flag out the gate door. With cover fire from their ghost and sniper, they were able to score the flag and tie the game.

The game began and both teams made a beeline for the coveted skull. Pastemaster was given an opportune spawn as he was able to spawn assassinate two Omegas and give us the ball. The game progressed and the ball was traded back and forth. However, when we had control of the ball our time gain far exceeded the time they could accumulate. Because of our well executed attacks and strong teamwork we ended the game with a one minute and thirty-six second lead.

This game was one of the fastest assault games we had ever played. In the first two minutes the Omega bomb was suppressed and our Mighty Phoenix bomb was planted twice by DonWan2DaATX. Soon after the two initial plants the Omega defense strengthened and a war ensued over control of the sniper rifles. After we gained control of both we attacked with force and with a well timed bomb assassination by DonWan, the sniper cover from Pastey and MASbetty, and the sheer slaying power of bart 008 we were able to arm the bomb 99 percent of the way. Omega fought back, but Team Leader Pastey was able to make a quick rush and plant the bomb thus shutting out SBG Omega.

The final game began and each team made an all out rush for the power weapons. We gained control of the majority of them, but the Omegas were able to control the rockets and the Coveted Cube. With control of the overshield they setup a rock solid defense on the overshield ramp. Our initial attempts failed, but a well executed attack broke the Omega defense and with the game tied at sixty-seven a piece the control of the Coveted Cube was placed in our hands. With control of the overshield, we took the lead and never looked back as we sealed the victory by a margin of twenty-five kills.

Match Summary
The members of SBG Omega are great guys and we enjoyed every game. They brought strategies we did not expect and we were fortunate that we could overcome. Because of this we would definitely look forward to a rematch in the future.
This match was a wash out for both teams. Team Phoenix doing that Mighty Bomb thing and Team Pegasus getting their clocks cleaned. Seeing the results, it probably would have been a closer battle if both teams played the other SBG squads. We all had a great night of gaming and we even ended the madness on the hills of Coagulation in what is becoming a Winged Warriors tradition called roadkill. To the SBG guys, thanks for the games. This write up doesn't give you enough credit. We look forward to playing with you in the future.
