Thanks GreatGonzales for hosting this wonderful tournament!

NO scallways in 2nd & 3rd matches, especailly all adorables in the 3rd match? I thought Scallways + Adorable was definitely the perfect combination. I'm totally wrong....

When Gavin and I were really active in 2v2, we decided that while Adorables + Scally's have great synergy, we kind of thought it was too "turtley" for our play style. You can see that in our games throughout the tournament. Only a few games would we go A+S, usually it was Veggies, (our preferred team) but we also like the idea of A+F. Unfortunately we could never get A+F to work out well. I think it's because Feedbacks Super is so game changing that it has to be balanced to be weaker then the other supers, making it very difficult to use effectively. However Bramble and Mobi are both very flexible which is ultimately a better combination, with a few map exceptions like Sugar Rock and CCM where double Adorables or A+S will serve you better.

I'd suggest you try to branch out into A+V and learn how to effectively use Thorns. A sniper surrounded by independent thorns is more dangerous then an exposed Bombshell, and cheaper then a BS entrenched with soldiers, it's also more maneuverable.

Finally I'd like to echo Pharmafans praise for Juslas and Akkette, they were definitely an interesting opponent to play, with great game sense and our most difficult opponent.
