shield 9 - 13 hoek

This game was strange in that there were very little spawn frags. It was close the whole time. Shield made a nice comeback to bring the game very close at the end, I was out of control and he only needed two frags. I just managed to run away with a few defensive rockets.

Despite my terrible start, I think my spam gives me an edge on this map. There was a funny moment where he popped me into the air with a great first rocket and then LG'd me to death, about a minute later, the same thing happened to him.

I don't think I knew times on items for the majority of the first part of the game. I milked the small lead I got from the start. Shield set up a few nice traps on RA and was successful in doing so but there were no conversion frags from them. After I managed to get a decent margin between us I started to relax and play a bit better. I'm quite sure that we both did not play our best tonight. I don't think anywhere near it. I respect Shield as a dueler and have seen him really own this map. I look forward to playing with (against) him in the future and hope that he will continue to play in tournys.
