Hopefully we can see better battles in 2024.
LvA was a no brainer right from the start, even if people wanted to support Arcane because this or that.
WvI was not very eventful either.
At least the money was good.

What flights would you like to see go head to head?

Re: Light wins

Shadow/Nature - they both seem to have decent dom teams that have the same issues (bigger flights, more casual/non-dom players) so it seems like a fair match

Nature/Arcane or Shadow/Arcane - might work too but Arcane was a little disorganized in this battle so idk

Wind/Nature - they seem well matched; Wind is probs stronger but I doubt it'd be a noflip

Plague/Ice/Light/Earth/Water - tbh I think any match up from these five would be a battle worth watching; Water noflipped Ice twice so maybe not that particular one.

NAYRT

Light will never touch Earth again with a 10 foot pole, the light dominance team has publicly said they dont think its worth it due to the ratio, they'd inevitably lose. I think they'd fight anyone else in that list, though.

This is a shame. Besides Water, Light is in the best position to attempt a battle with Earth, even if it's not an advantageous position.

Would like to see them take a risk. It's unfortunate that Earth seems to be out of the battle scene unless Water wants to fight them for a second time or Fire develops competence.

Light did fight Earth twice already, albeit six years ago now. Two nearly flip-less battles in succession isn't forgotten easily though.

A Earth vs a competent Fire could be interesting.

nearly flip-less is certainly better than what we've seen this year

god i *hope* fire becomes competent (said as an ember). that would make things a lot more interesting

ayrt

Both those losses were pre hibernal den. The game has changed in a big way that (imo) benefits Light over Earth in this scenario.

So yes, emotionally, I see why they're wary. Statistically, I don't think it's as relevant anymore that they lost twice in 2018 or whatever.

...Or maybe they just don't want to pay for it. It would be an expensive battle, that's for sure, lol.

Lmao Light thinks it's okay to curbstomp flights like Arcane, but is too scared at the chance to be curbstomped in turn. Damn that's boring

AYRT Arcane approached Light for this battle, that's on them. And Light has fought Earth twice and got curbstomped both times. The second time made the Dom Team disappear out of lack of interest in the site anymore and Light is only just recovering from that. It's reasonable for them to not want to waste their resources on something that's doomed. Let flights who actually stand a chance like Water take on Earth.

DA

I quit taking part in dom efforts anything more than casually after fighting hard in both those battles. Earth can't be beaten yet by Light, let Water try next.

Water already beat Earth in a battle. We have nothing to prove.

I wish that'd happen again. My flight lost but that battle was really fun and Water was fun to fight against

DA it's a bummer for Earth that no one wants to challenge them T.T if only Fire were better...

Earth should rematch with Water with the way some of y'all are acting like they can't be beat

Re: Light wins

(Anonymous) 2023-12-05 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah and? This is a game, after all. If you know going into a fight that you’ll have a long, expensive, and tedious week when you know you’ll lose, there’s not a lot of appeal in that. Can’t blame them for not wanting to do it.

lmao why did you poke the Light hive with a stick like that? You know how overly defensive they get

Re: Light wins

(Anonymous) 2023-12-06 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, those losses convinced us it's impossible. Or they did at the time, but I don't think the dom team's changed their minds.

an arcane dom team member has very recently stated that arcane will never battle shadow again because of how their last one went years ago

I'm not familiar with this tea. What happened?

Re: Light wins

(Anonymous) 2023-12-04 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
as far as ive seen said, 1) because it was a flipless battle, 2) because some arcane members were unkind to some shadow members during it. but i don’t know what that means exactly

Re: Light wins

(Anonymous) 2023-12-03 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Water vs ice was uneventful because one side had been prepping most of the year for a different opponent that backed out and the new one had like 2 months at most. It would have been a good battle if Ice hadn't come in behind

It doesn't look like there's any battles on the Dom Watch Calendar yet, which sucks because they're one of the most fun things for me on the site!

Re: Light wins

(Anonymous) 2023-12-03 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
If you open the full calendar, Wind vs Ice is in October. Hopefully another one pops up though!
