This morning I decided to have a little PvP stint before getting myself ready for work, and so at around 03:30 GMT I rolled up to the Garden.
Invader 1- Very respectful, bowed upon seeing me bow, waited for me buff what-have-ya, and then went and spoiled it all by going straight for a one-hit lag-back-stab.
Invader 2- Not waiting for me to finish my bow went straight for the kill, but I managed to roll out of the ambush without a scratch. We then engaged, and after getting his HP down to a nats nuts whisker he finishes me off with yet another one-hit lag-back-stab. So much for originality, never mind.
Invader 3- Again very respectful, bows in return of my own, and throughout the fight does not resort to any underhanded techniques. Eventually both our HP bars are brought down to the point where the a waft from a butterfly wing would end either of us, and to the Invaders credit he rolls away from my heavy attack and immediately counters to take home the win. Maybe things are not going to be that bad after all?
Invader 4- Much the same as Invader 3, but this time he manages to stun-lock me, resulting in a straight three-hit kill. No worries, at least the fight was fair.
Invader 5- The return of Invader 2, but this time every time I knock his HP bar down some, he backs off to flask. No problem, as I can sense it's only a matter of time before I finish him off, but then Invader 6 comes into my world to throw a bloody great big spanner in the works. Oh great I thought, as I caught sight of his dragonhead, but luckily he wasn't a glitcher, or at least he wasn't in a glitching mood. Anyway, the two of them proceed to gang up on me, and to my credit I for once actually managed to hold my own, well sort of, but in the end both Invader 5 and me ended up dieing at the exact same time.
So I ended up being 0-5 this morning, and whilst I did not manage to bring home a single win, well not one that I survived long enough to celebrate
, at least I got to participate in two very good fights and one not quite as good one.
All in all it wasn't a too shabby way to begin the day.
Umbasa!
