(November 3rd, 2013, 19:04)SevenSpirits Wrote: Pick analysis:
1.SevenSpirits/Krill: Zulu. This is a good pick, it means this team gets to start with two techs, and they will have a UU and a UB.
2.Zaldax: Nothing. Suboptimal pick here, really you want some techs as well as traits.
3.Gavagai: Nothing. Same comments as for Zaldax.
4.2metraninja: Nothing. Not standard RB play but we know 2metra likes to reject that. It won't go well for him.
5.Jowy: Nothing. Well, I wasn't expecting a good showing from him anyway.
6.Dhalphir: Nothing. I know he's a noob but come on man, this is basic stuff.
7.Gaspar/Noble: Nothing. These guys should know better. Without a civ you don't get starting techs which sets you back like 10 turns, and without a leader you just can't compete with those who do have leaders. Maybe they're banking on no one else taking a leader either? If so, it's working so far.
8.Retep: Nothing. Curious to see his reasoning after the game is over.
9.Kuro: Nothing. This is really surprising, but maybe a dedlurker convinced him that this was wisest so that he has fewer tools to hang himself with.
10.Mikehendi: Nothing. Don't know anything about this guy, he is a dark horse. Maybe the "nothing" is a facade and he actually has a restricted pair up his sleeve?
11.wetbandit: Nothing. 11 may be the worst spot in the snake but that's no excuse. Shame on you, wetbandit.
12.Goreripper: Nothing. Well, I guess he used his position on the "wheel" to get some synergy between civ and leader. 0x0 is still 0 though. Goreripper probably doesn't know about math.
Overall: SevenSpirits/Krill team is poised to crush the competition.
I'd like to see your beaker analysis method for measuring picks applied to this for completeness. You typed a lot of fancy words, but I'm here for numbers.

Can you guys explain your reasoning? Seems all this must have been hashed out in chat or something ...

I'll let Seven explain it but it's fairly obvious IMO.

Ok, I'll take the bait - you're deliberately picking suboptimally? Fin is obvious. I would have understood what you were doing with Joao. Fin/Agg has synergy. Exp/Agg has flavour. Why Spi?
