It was impossible to know what to expect from a PvM clan having their first ever F2P war, but it's fair to say that TE gave a very good account of themselves under the circumstances. They had a good turnout, they generally maintained a pile throughout, they had styles, and most importantly they had fun.
They did a bit of sniping and they didn't clump much, but that will come with the experience that they will be picking up now that they have developed an appetite for F2P warring. An official from TE has informed me that they would like to pursue a rematch in a few weeks. It's nice to see that NB was able to help introduce another clan to the warring scene.
NB's performance was fairly polished for the most part with some much improved clumping in particular. The turnout peak of 27 NB members despite the time change was also nice to see, as well as being able to give some people calling time that normally don't get the chance to be able to do so. It was great to see a couple of recent newcomers drop by, too. Last but not least, thank you to the 4 TR that were around to provide seniority and real-time mentoring.
GG to TE and thank you for warring against NB. You did well but can and will do much better in the near future if you have enough enthusiasm to want to delve into warring. It would be nice to see some more PvM clans giving it a try, too. Until next time.
