July 6, 2008 – Shrugging off the loss of Beast City to Guardians the week before last, Exiled kept its eye on the ball as they geared up for what they crawled up to the north part of the map for: The capture of Sword City. The Red Machine was more than ready when the battlegrounds opened, and fought one of their greatest battles to date.
Unexpectedly though, it was Guardians who set the pace of the battle from the outset, as they went for the mid-lane rush. Having been immediately aware of this, but missing several of its key members (the battlegrounds fill up in a matter of seconds, keeping everybody else who isn’t fast enough outside), there was little else Exiled could do but hold off the Guardians offensive. This went on for the greater part of the battle, as G did their best to keep the clashes as far away from their base as possible and deep into Exiled’s half of the map, so did the Exiled veterans hope to get in the battlefield to be able to fulfill their respective roles. Several counter-offensives were done by the incomplete catapult team, resulting in some damage to the Guardians base, but as they were lacking support and firepower, they were quickly pushed back by G’s defenses. While Guardians fought with heart this time around, the inevitable came when Exiled’s key members were finally able to join the battle. With the catapult team finally complete, and Guardians seemingly not even trying to make changes in their strategy, the hammer dropped on the anvil. And it dropped hard. A few pushes of the cata & strike teams while the remainder of Exiled held off the mid-lane leading into the Guardians base, and BAM! Sword City’s walls were painted red, with 42 minutes remaining on the clock.
So what’s next for Clan Exiled?
Why, the re-taking of Beast City, of course.
