Warlocks 2010 Round 4 Pairings and Results thread

Vermont - kenton
games.ravenblack.net/warlocks?num=76629&turn=25

Vermont is up 3 hp, an ogre, and is going to land a fireball next turn. While there are some lines of play that leave kenton with the ogre, being down 8hp is no joke, and some lines lead to kenton dying in a few turns =)

Vermont is the winner here.

Vermont - Dubber
games.ravenblack.net/warlocks?num=76611&turn=53

Vermont is up 5 hp and an ogre. While Dubber threatens to charm the ogre, Vermont can stabilize killing ogre either before or after charm, with likely advantage of 4hp average.

Given this, Vermont is declared the winner of this game

xade - hermit
games.ravenblack.net/warlocks?num=76617&turn=24

Hermit is down 3 hp and threatens with a FoD, which can hit (or can not), or can be converted into a Fireball xade cannot effectively dodge. It is hard to say if 10-7 with an active FoD is a significant advantage, but I guess it is safe to say that overall choices favours hermit here (25% of kill and ~33% of +3hp) and therefore he is declared the winner here.

ourjake - kenton
games.ravenblack.net/warlocks?num=76609

With banked anti and initiative up, current board position clearly favours Ourjake, who is declared the winner.

ourjake - saypin
games.ravenblack.net/warlocks?num=76605&turn=20

HPs are 6-4 (virtual 6-3) favouring jake. Being below 5hp is quite a big deal, so it is safe to declare Ourjake the winner here.

[Dubber]

I'm disappointed that my report of the actual Dubber v Vermont game-finish got deleted.
However, it does not change the fact that Vermont won it

Dubber
My apologies, but for tournament purposes your game matters only up to turn 53, so reporting the result of the game is kinda superfluous and possibly misleading =)

thread locked btw
