Battle of the Best @ Games Convention 2008

Battle of the Best I: Saturday, 23.08 14:00
      VS               

German interview with Almisael (For the Horde) and Amran (In Harmony) before the Battle of the Best.

In Harmony defeats For the Horde in a very exciting Time-Run on Zul'Aman.
With a total clearing time of 00:32:32 In Harmony managed to be 3min 23sec faster than For the Horde (00:35:55) and earned a well deserved win.

Short summary:
Despite initial technical problems (Amran had a WoW-Error and disconnect from the server, but For the Horde waited on him coming back into the game showing great fair-play spirit), In Harmony managed to get a early lead and steadily enlarged the this lead in the remaining instance. In the middle of the competition For the Horde managed to get back some time but problems with bosses Malacrass and Zul'Jin made all comeback efforts negligible. All in all In Harmony celebrated a confident victory with a very good time for clearing Zul'Aman.

Interview with Thomas "Kungen" Bengtsson (guild leader Nihilum) before the Battle of the Best.
  

Nihilum defeats SK Gaming with a fantastic effort by clearing Zul'Aman in 00:29:52.
Due to a early wipe and constant problems SK Gaming ended up beaten by almost 7 minutes, with a clearing-time of 00:36:26.

Short summary:
From the beginning on Nihilum (with Kungen playing live at the allvatar-booth in Leipzig) managed to get ahead of SK Gaming (represented by Scatha from SK Gaming).
After the first Boss Akil'zon, Nihilum went ahead 20 seconds on SK Gaming with the decision maker coming up soon, when SK Gaming wiped unfortunately on a trash pack before Nalorakk, when trying to make good some time on Nihilum. After Nalorakk, SK Gaming was behind 00:03:40min which of course couldn't be caught up in the remaining time-run.

Zul'Jin went down after 29:52min with a fantastic time for Nihilum. barely under 30 minutes.
SK Gaming ended up with a clearing-time of 00:36:26min.
