Scoops

We are still at the point trying to figure things out as the website redesign also required changes at the backend. If we missed a message that was sent between last week and now, we apologize in advance. Make sure to update your bookmarks and to double check that you are on the new Send a Raven page.

The K8 gathering juggernaut will win them KvK. No matter what happens in the PvP arena, even if we held all castles the full 24 hours, it’s the gathering that will win the dat. There’s too many of them: someone attacks a site, they withdraw and send out again. I’m not going to spend 24 hours playing whack-a-mole for a few extra lvl diamond mines. anon e mouse

Kids, this is how the west was won.

Cool KvK vid from K5 player Revo Ross

What we learned: this looks cool in fast forward and with drum and bass music booming at the background. Made us contemplate what if research times are as quick.

Although, we can argue that war is all about careful analysis and measured execution. But we are just nitpicking here. That was fun!

After last KvK a lot of things happened in K23 and the kingdom definitely improved from last one, with a smaller gap between the kingdoms, but as usual, former “King” iceman now known as “the hulk” (cuz he’s green of envy and can barely speak so it’s accurate) started feeding the enemy kingdom K31 locations of the biggest ones of K23 and the locations of attacks, but K23 is proud of their performance at KvK and will keep training and growing to have better results Daniel

Damn, Daniel. The shade in this one… can cover the entire planet.

K23 vs K31, battle between two Polish alliances SPL vs RBI unfortunatly RBI took over SPLs Winterfell, but there will be a battle at the end of KvK. TOSTER

Final results of K23 vs K31 and final rally of polish battle: TOSTER

The coming punchline being 80 years old, no one should be offended and come back at me and say, “Too soon”:

I do hope it would not be 1939 all over again there.

Hi! Are you interested in a little article about the k27-k28 KvK war that I wrote? If yes, please see (ed: link above) KitSummer

A nice read that one.

By the way, are you in any way related to Kit Snow? Yeah, it is like asking if Summer the retconned anti-manic pixie dream girl is related to Autumn, who Tom (spoiler alert) met at the end of that movie. But we never know. I mean all of my Lords are named after an amalgamation of pro wrestler names.

Going back, just to address the last sentence in your piece. Being objective is a soft skill that is hard to learn. I had to take units in Journalism and be proverbially screamed at by my university publication editor to have that concept hammered into my head.

That said, you are not obliged to, but it is good to have that disclaimer so that you would not be called out like this one. Incidentally, it is also about the ongoing mess on K28.

II have better reports for our fight against k26 how can I share it with u guys ? Sima Yi

The easiest method is to include a link to the screenshot in your message. As we have noticed that a number of message senders have inquired about this, we will see if we can have an attachment feature included in our Send a Raven page.

buenos dias comunicarles que k45 en su primera versión para este reino, fuimos ganadores del kvk contra k41, la buena organización de nuestro rey y de las top 15 alianzas más la zona horaria nos ayudo bastante ya que somos la única alianza latina (HLP) en este servidor Sergio Antonio Lima Santillán

Gracias por enviar este mensaje. Apreciamos leer correos escritos en cualquier otro idioma.

How do we send you screen shots from KvK. I have too funny ones for you Ratsnuggle

Until we have not set up an attachment feature in place, follow the recommendation I mentioned two messages above.

You asked for recaps of matches in KvK. The saying 3rd time’s the charm rang true, with K5 scoring its first KvK win in the third KvK. K1 and K5 alike acknowledged the amount of people gathering from K5, as active players were sitting in K1’s King’s Landing and sitting on nodes with T1, constantly calling the big kids out of K5 where they were doing damage to drive us off. They say gathering doesn’t win KvK, but it sure does wonders and makes it far easier. Alexis

Succinct but it covers everything.

Also on the contrary, based on the feedback we are getting, gathering is the new meta with about four to five matches being decided that way and another one that employed it as an audible but ended up losing anyway because that kingdom did not have an initial strategy in place.

Gathering at War of the Kingdoms is pretty much like James Harden making freethrows at this point. And speaking of gathering and James Harden, here is a mix tape that would either make you appreciate his athletic instincts or cringe at him for toeing the line (see what we did there?):

I’m the guy collecting scores on KvKs and posting them in that spreadsheet on GTArcade discord. I just notice that our Kingdom’s KvK winning point differential (won by 2.8B) is larger than any KvK matchup in any of the 3 KvKs. 🙂 I still need a few matchup results from smaller kingdoms that I don’t have yet, but I can’t imagine that change this biggest winner stat.

Alfred, hope you are not MAD at all. As for your kingdom’s achievement, congratulations!

We have also contacted you offering our help to complete your data. If you need scores from the first War of the Kingdoms, you can check out our recaps if you have not yet.

Seeing that you have your own little space at The Domain of the Old Gods, it would be nice if we can also have our own spot there; do you agree?
