The Battle of the North - Tournament for all Swedish, Norweigan, Finnish and Danish players has ended. 45 people signed up but only 26 got to play.
The brackets were made by random and as it happens turned out to have all the favorites except Mats in the upper one. While Mats cruised to final in the lower one. Defeating KoN_Fame in the semifinal. The upper one set me up vs KoN_Dragon, 1840 player. Then vs swedish legend Kaiser_Willhelm. Me and Kaiser has played many 1vs1 during AoC and AoM and none of us were too happy about facing eachother this early. After a beginning were we both just massed Raiders(me) and Hippikons(he) I got Thundering Hooves and was able to win. Best game by me in this tourney.
Then I went up against 1970 ranked KoN_Dreams, the hope of norway. In classical I tried to maneuver into his base to use my superior norse units before he could get mercs or something. Dreams kicked me back tho but as I could go to heroic much faster than him I was able to win anyway with the help of upgrades and Frost God Power.
Semifinal vs my apprentice L_Clan_ScareD went easy as he had some friends at his place and seemed disturbed by them.
Final vs Mats. I always tend to mess up vs Mats, often losing and this made me nervous. He raided me nicely at start. While I was hving some economy problems. Trying to get back I got Thundering Hooves and attack his army aggressively. The upgrade wasn't enough though and this enormously braindead misstake of me ended the game rather fast. The rest was just me holding on hoping for Mats to make some huge misstake, which he never made. Congratulations Mats and well played.
