Amazing, well done.

I bet LHDD are glad they hired me as their performance coach.

Not sure what you are questioning? We failed in the semi-finals last year vs S&M.

Yeah basically, although mostly in jest. We'll be playing S&M once we beat PACK.



Good luck with that kid. :roll: :lol:

23-0 and we're through to the next round (FALL?).
we're still up for a clean sheet.
Or as in french we'd say... leave them "Fanny". When this happens, the loser has to make a walk of shame and pass under a table crawling. It's french tradition when an opponent hasn't managed to save his honnour by scoring at least a point, then you call them Fanny on top of that (although in French it's just a female name, not female genitals. French girls called Fanny can have a hard time in Britain if they reveal their name).
I hope this gives LOTZ enough motivation to try a little harder. Has anybody ever seen a clean sheet in clan wars? I don't think I have.

Per my research done for January Platoon Report (Clanaholic* Top 5 Article) the highest win margins ever are:

Largest Margin of Victory (Win %):
1T. SC (37) v KRB (4) - 90.2%
1T. FOED (37) v LOTZ (4) - 90.2%
3. Sky Force (18) v Water's Fury (2) - 90%
4. TOFU (36) v SoH (5) - 87.8%
5. KNT (36) v LI (5) - 87.8%

lol LI. those were like a random dozen of italians that tried to make a clan with no experience and like 80% clueless freemium players... cause there were no other italians to pick on the site. I wonder why we have so few italians on the site by the way.
Pretty sure we'll beat that record then. We can afford to lose 4 games and still get the highest % ever.
up to 24-0

Nice work I guess (I don't know how opponents that weak prepare you for Fallen though). Wait did I read that correctly that, LOTZ is going to qualify for this list twice?

Potentially, there’s no guarantees.

I mean to be fair, LOTZ will make it onto the list against LHDD and FOED. That's less embarrassing than being on the list for losing to KNT or SC in my opinion.

Fair point.

Regarding our preparation against FALL.. we're just finishing our war against LOW and we won.
We did a rather quiet season this year... atlantis, phoenix, low and lotz. Who knows where we will be standing against top notch clans, but we arrive fresh and with the boost of confidence you get for winning without trying too hard as we never reached the danger zone. That's a double edge though.

Ps: just saw there is a game we are going to lose on upper egypt, so no clean sheet for us. I think it s close to impossible to make a clean sheet. You need tons of luck.

What you have to realize is that LOTZ exists for entirely different reasons than our clan. I don't believe they turn away anyone based on lack of skill, and that they play for fun.
That said, yeah, they have historically been at the very bottom of the list year after year.
But hey! Someone has to fill that position too, and LOTZ fill it with distinction :D

This war takes the cake though.

lotz was already there before i even joined CC. They have always been a bottom ranked clan, and they are still there. There is just no other clan like that... they all get tired of losing and disban after a while. In that sense, it takes a certain type of player to be in lotz. Just playing for fun and not giving a shit about losing. They have won 2 wars (of 34) in 8 years of existence, have the worse game winning ratio and they are still there. I have a great respect for that. It's the best losing clan of CC's history. I bet there is a great companionship in their forum.

You're probably better off losing a few games so that IcePack doesn't f*ck you guys over anyway.

I don't even see how this is possible..you'd think by pure luck they'd win 10-15% of the games, but I can see its 32-1.

I'm not saying LHDD aren't very good. You clearly are, but this is ridiculous.

Let's be honnest here... no offense to lotz, but I have probably already faced tougher opposition. First rounds of the CC are generally a walk in the park, this time we even have time for a picnic.

Lots of missed turns, often on crucial turns when the game is still undecided

Too bad about missing the clean sheet. Would have been incredible to see, and an amazing achievement.
I suppose winning by the biggest margin ever will "have to do".
Well done LHDD =D> =D> =D>
