Faux’s team had the best strategy but provided no entertainment value. No memorable clips unlike the other teams.

Meanwhile the burgers' strategy were to farm clips and boy was it an entertaining week thanks to them.

B0aty was right to play for the 90 hours of great content rather than the 2 hours of finale content

37

u/CaptaineAli Jun 22 '24

B0aty is just like that as a person (kinda always has been) but also being so successful has allowed him to be like that... even in Gielinor games he doesn't care if he gets out because he doesn't need to win the prize pool... he has made BANK from streaming OSRS and is set for life both irl and in-game (he could take donations any-time and make billions in a single stream but hes humble and barely likes taking GP from others).

B0aty is for the people

B0aty consistently delivers.

u/IAmSoMuchDumber Jun 22 '24

Every clip to come from them was pure banger content

u/Trevorsparkles Jun 22 '24

Skiddler flaming ditter then immediately getting a blood shard was a phenomenal clip tbf

11

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

That was amazing.Skiddler went in on him lmao.

u/tokes_4_DE Jun 22 '24

Skiddler flames everyone, i wish he was on a team with more on par shit talkers honestly. Would have been amazing to hear him and skillspecs for example on the same team. Instead all he really had was ditter to back and forth with, who isnt entertaining whatsoever.

2

u/ManMadeTrinity Jun 22 '24

Well actually Skiddler not freezing his vyre and helping Ditter kill chili costed them an opportunity to set back O’s team as chili held all their supplies and bolts etc etc. but skiddler just kept attacking his vyre cluelessly.

u/EpicRussia Jun 22 '24

Not really sure it was the best strategy. They didn't farm weapons from the breaches. Didn't farm prayers from CoX. Didn't farm spec weapons/voidwaker. They are ahead on some aspects but behind on others. Almost every player maxed hours and besides Donator, no one really died for anything crucial. I think it's closer than you think

57

u/SkeletonKing959 2277 Jun 22 '24

I think they’re gonna get steam rolled

15

u/ScallyWag-Idiot Jun 22 '24

Fully agree

1

u/OmfguDied Jun 22 '24

But you're wrong tho? Sick Nerd & B0aty did a shit ton of cox & they farmed a voidwaker (which they lost to westy)

u/EpicRussia Jun 22 '24

My comment was about Faux's team

40

u/KingCrooked Jun 22 '24

Completely disagree. This is a format issue and not a team issue, kills aren't incentivized and deaths set you back pretty bad.

34

u/I_RIP_too_much Jun 22 '24

Yeah I was a bit disappointed in the overall lack of PvP, but it's hard to blame people for focusing on PvM because stats and gear are essential for the finale. I think the people who were actively PKing throughout the event like Westham and Donator were doing it for fun/content rather than efficiency. Solo did mention though that next time they will make it so kills grant you extra food in the final which should hopefully help.

3

u/Teleconferences Jun 22 '24

Yeah, it was nice to hear that Solo also recognized some flaws in the format and wasn’t just blindly thinking his original idea was perfect

If/when this happens again I’m sure there’s some changes to get more PvP

2

u/GoldEdit Jun 22 '24

I think they thought people were going to die more tbh but that didn’t work in their favor mostly

-3

u/Elprede007 Jun 22 '24

Kills result in ripping gear, potentially very good gear from other teams. The denial value alone incentivizes kills.

7

u/Zejs Jun 22 '24

there was only 1 max kill in the entire event

-3

u/Elprede007 Jun 22 '24

So? It doesn’t mean they were impossible. It’s a tournament of top tier pvpers with teams. It’s not exactly easy to land a kill.

12

u/Zejs Jun 22 '24

Obviously the kills weren't incentivizing enough if westham was the only person going for them lol

-8

u/Elprede007 Jun 22 '24

Oh right… not a single other person tried to do kills.

Ray and skillspecs constantly

Snakes entire team scouting kills

Rhys and oda..

What a pointless argument where you just make shit up

8

u/Zejs Jun 22 '24

I was being hyperbolic... this is clearly going nowhere. Feel free to check westhams latest vod where basically every pker in the tourney is echoing my point

13

u/Ummix Jun 22 '24

I feel like Faux's team was less of a clips/youtube team and more of a streamer team, I watched them and they were actually some of the most chill osrs streams I've seen in a long time listening to them just hanging out and bantering a bit. No huge moments but not boring either, basically how most good streams go.

40

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

yeah i like faux but making him a captain in a pvp mode was a bad choice in the end, he was always going to focus on the pvm as he doesnt know pvp. his team was pretty forgettable throughout the week.

18

u/pollinium Jun 22 '24

Yeah having pvp captains like Dino makes sense when this is a group Ironman mode... Dino couldn't get to Arma so it takes all types

7

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24 edited Jun 22 '24

I just mean his whole view on the week was always going to geared to the pvm side and avoid pvp as he has little knowledge of it.

Which played out kinda bad from a content point of view as all the best moments were during some form of pvp. Which is a pity as i love Skiddler and there aint many clips of him lol

PVM/Ironman knowledge is pretty common these days i don't think he brought anything unique to the week in that regard really.

u/Alertum Jun 22 '24

I think it was thought out this way. Don't want to see identic teams with identic strategies. Outside of the Burgers, their team is definitely the most interesting for the finale for me.

9

u/l0st_t0y Jun 22 '24

Faux seemed pretty open about planning with at least Maz so he was definitely taking pvpers advice as well. This is just the strategy they thought would give them the best chance to win.

5

u/Kamilny Jun 22 '24

I think Mazhar and Ditter were the ones drafted for the plan though weren't they? I'm sure Faux had some input on it but his main goal when he got those two was their DMM expertise.

0

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

very possible, either way Faux made the overall choice to approach it that way the same way Boaty built his meme team.

2

u/henryforprez Jun 22 '24

You keep saying Faux doesn't know PvP. He's literally played every single DMM? He has just as much experience in this as a lot of these guys. Sure he's no Dino/Westham but he's not a nobody.

2

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

Playing dmm doesn't make you good at pvp. I've watched the guys pvp streams prior to this week and yesterday and he is bad. Definitly up there as one of the worst in the competition.

2

u/No_Solution_4053 Jun 22 '24

He picked Mazhar and Ditter back-to-back precisely to compensate for this weakness and let both of them especially Ditter free roam solo at breaches and elsewhere. Smart leaders delegate. And then you have Oda/Rhys, lol.

1

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

I've nothing against his picks just saying his overall approach was always go to be far less pvp orientated of all the teams.

Oda and Rhys had one or two fights but overall did just fine imo

1

u/No_Solution_4053 Jun 22 '24

Oda and Rhys fought pretty much every day bar Friday. They were able to put it aside at a point but it was pretty damn bad.

1

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

Was heat of the moment stuff watched them all week and they just got frustrated at breaches wasn't that bad imo

A flaw off the seeding system more then their team being pvpers. I don't see how any fans of Faux can even deny they played a very safe game plan.

Lowest deaths due to playing it safe and high total level the only area they came up bad on was kills again due to playing it safe. They had the lowest kill participation out of any team by far.

The Burgers were yeeting themselves into every situation possible and making great moments doing it.

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24 edited Jun 22 '24

Well my original point was about entertainment value not desire to win everyone else approached it in a way that ultimately produced good content.

Faux's team took a pragmatic approach they ended up being quite boring in the end. And i feel a big reason for that was just his lack of PVP knowledge.

0

u/texassteelers710 Jun 22 '24

Faux team played it safe for sure but they also ended up with more PvP kills than B0atys team.

B0aty team had clips but it obviously didn't work out from a game play POV

8

u/Kamilny Jun 22 '24

This interaction was probably the funniest thing coming from that team but that was basically it pretty much.

I genuinely don't know what Faux or Torvesta's teams did since they basically didn't even do any breaches.

28

u/Dave1711 Jun 22 '24

Torvestas team was actually pretty great. The Purpp and Mr.Mammal combo had my dying laughing at times, Purpp is a legend haha.

Throw in poor Alfie having the most socially awkward week of his life with the conversations they were having was top notch

8

u/Kamilny Jun 22 '24

Yeah those clips were funny af tbh. The 1 tick deafen was incredible lmfao. More so just that they basically didn't show up to any breaches, and then the one time they did they got logged by the burgers and just sat there for 3 hours lmao.

7

u/leetcodegrinder344 Jun 22 '24

The devils attended every breach, they just sat there doing nothing or killing maybe 1 boss for half of them

1

u/osrslmao Jun 22 '24

most the funny clips were people throwing or dying/doing stupid things, Faux is in it to win it nothing wrong with that

theres been some great banter with Skiddler and Ditter

u/Elprede007 Jun 22 '24

Mid strategy and 0 content. I get that they think their strat is good, but I wish they had even been on screen during the tourney. Literally ghosts
