“SWL CIV PREMIER- Game #6

Coming off our worst losing streak, we stumbled into former SWL champs Ahuriri Unearthly, coached by the legendary Sandune.

Let us be transparent- we were very lucky to take this win. It should have been a draw at best, most likely a loss.


Learnings


1. GET LUCKY

Mummies were hit multiple times by claw wolves, but stayed on the pitch. Very lucky.

Learning here is to position better to protect them, line defence with zombies flanking them to eliminate assists.

T7 of 1st half was significant. Necro rolled skulls into skulls, failing to crack open our middle for the counter score.

Had that succeeded, result would not have been the same.

Learning is to protect the middle from penetration. Stand Firm Golems were well positioned together, ready to create the breach in our defence.


Summary

This report is in retrospect, after the SWL premier has been won and done (by Sandune) and the Canetoads have been relegated for poor performance.

But, it was a little more enjoyable, as our Stand Firm, Guard, and fouling skills, all came in handy.

We are still under no illusions that this game was won on pure luck, but still nice to feel like we had some agency in the game.”
