PainKiller: Wombat wins first round

By: Jason Bass - Published November 20, 2005 at 11:11 AM EST - Writer Archive
An exciting match just completed in New York between 3D|Wombat and fc-gaming|Rat.
Wombat came into the tournament a ten seed after a fairly solid performance at most of the world tour stops. Rat came in seeded 23rd.


3D|Wombat Mark Larson
Mark "Wombat" Larson started off the first map with a commanding 12-0 run. He seemed to be on his way to dominate this match and move on to the second round. Suddenly a few seconds after Mark's 12th frag, Rat answered back with his first frag. This frag was followed by 7 more by Rat before Wombat was finally able to answer back with another run of his own. From this point forward it was a see saw battle until the end. Mark spent the last minute of the map running to hold his lead but in the process was able to claim 4 more frags making the final score 23-13 in Wombat's favor for the first map.

The second map started with Rat claiming the first frag but it was all downhill for Rat from this point forward. Wombat immediately responded with a frag of his own to even the scoreboard and from this point was able to completely control the gold armor to go on a 7-0 run. Rat then answered back with two frags of his own but quickly lost control and fragged himself twice. From this point forward it was all Wombat as he clenched the victory with a commanding 12-1 win.

Nice job wombat, but Fatal1ty ftw!
Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose.

Just think about it. 6 Years ago, Wombat was at a CPL event, in New York City, and he won. At that event he didn't think it was a sport, but fun with money tied in. I wonder what he thinks about it now.

How is there bias? It was one of the better matches in the first round. There is exactly one of me here and I can only watch one match at a time.

uhh...what are you talking about? "what about fatality?" i'm not following your argument at all. basically my point was that the title of the article isn't very good because there were 15 other people besides wombat who won the first round. maybe something like "Wombat manages a win in close first round match" would be better.
