"GG Borja, you scared me that one time lol. Playing D2 is interesting, I'm still not sure what my opinion is on it. I think I need to find a D1-ratting-level equivalent to really sell the game on me." | "In my attempt to find the perfect water-based anarchy level for Descent II, I was met with a fistful of Mercuries. So I panic-ran and panic-fired like crazy. I think my only decent kill was the first one, where I somehow used a missle and Fusion combo, but otherwise... (One of 'em was a murder-suicide.) Interesting Blarget level, though! Entropy's not sure if it's meant to be played with afterburners... (It screwed me over; spawning with 'em gave my position away at every energy center patch.)" | |

"Entertaining map. The impact the afterburner has on the game turns a stale, symmetrical level into something that still has the thrill of the chase. I liked killing you with the Omega through the fences. :)" | "Although semi-blind for me as I hadn't played it online before, I wanted to give this map a try, because I liked the gimmick of it having the aesthetic of an Episode 2-or-later map of Doom. The size and weapons make it more suitable for anarchy, but still interesting fun. Entropy managed to continue being successfully sneaky on me while I ignore my own rear view stupidly. I do like my own Omega/[forgot] Missile kill on Entropy because it was turnabout for a change in having fun with the cannon!" Demo link |

"Your third kill was quite good. We were matching each other for line-of-sight and moving around the map, and then when I thought I had him feeling comfortable I wasn't behind him (I totally was), he circled back and got me. Good game Borja, 'twas fun." | "I ended up loading Descent II for some fun, when I remembered Entropy asked for a game, so I asked him for a D2 one, and something with water in it. We didn't know much of D2 levels, so I just found this in the DMDB, and while flat, it's still remarkably different from D1 flat levels. As it's our first time in here, I figured this takes presedence over the "Gauss'nMercs" and "Megas" subgames (there's one Mega), and it was quite interesting. Feels like my only kills were only missile-based." Demo link |

"A couple of decent kills from you this game, showing off your knowledge of the map layout and how things connect. It's not easy on that map, no doubt. GG Borja, you put up a fine score. I particularly liked the part where I backed into you in the curved door'd tunnel connecting the pink area and the elbow room. Definitely did not think you were there lol" | "Here I thought Entropy would completely school me with sneaking up on me, and he almost did. I at least got lucky with some frags, and one or two others were planned. The freshest in mind was my camping in one room he knew I was in. Thankfully his Fusion aiming wasn't perfect and I had him trapped. That was my only decent kill. (And no, Entropy, I won't tell you how I "got behind you" that one time. But it wasn't hard then!)" | |

"I like how you make it seem deliberate that you spawned 3 times in a row in front of me lol. Fun level, GG." | "This was normal compared to our last DCL match...which is amazing, given what the level is. I like how Entropy eventually had enough fun and decided to end it quickly by exploiting the dirty trick of this dueling map. Not the first time it happened to me! Heh." |

"Omega Cannon is Descent's melee weapon. BLZAT! GG lol" | "Using the latest Rebirth (Entropy doesn't have Retro 1.4x3 for D II), I was open to trying something wild with Omega cannons when he offered, and...b'zat. Like with my matches against Ashes, it takes some serious adjusting to try and get used to how Descent II feels, especially with the afterburner! It's a refreshing change of pace a bit...even if most of the stupid-fun was had by Entropy in his effective Lightning gun usage here." |

"GG! Haven't played this style in forever. Thanks for reminding me of the joys of disorientation! Definitely good practice figuring out how to move around that one efficiently." | "With many thanks to Entropy for hosting for us, Seawyrm and I engaged in a little "ratting" in a disoriented way again. I felt freer to just keep moving compared to being against Entropy, but Seawyrm was pretty efficient in his way around and--like Entropy in his and my last match--managed to circle around me to make sure I was pinned at times, though any compensation for that wouldn't have affected the outcome. Fun times were had in any case." | |

"You have a pattern of sticking around places of engagement, allowing me to circle around behind you quite easily. The vertical elements in this map that enable those flight patterns are quite enjoyable. GG" | "In return for helping me out with my experiment, I obliged in trying out Anything...which doesn't necessarily mean I was up for anything. (I couldn't resist. Cue crickets.) I did fear, like in that one Swarthy level we recently played, that Entropy would get the surprise on me half the time, and sure enough... I did put up more of a fight, though...especially when I spawned near him! Interesting match and interesting map. (Addendum: Yes, I am *that* predictable, Entropy...sadly.)" | |

"I learned a trick or two this time around. I think this isn't as boring as I had initially assumed. Was a fun game, GG Borja" | ""It's actually very hard to kill people with only homers, I added the megas for that reason." ~ Entropy | Well...so much for *that* being the case! Though, in his defense, it wasn't easy getting any frags on him, since I was too busy trying to dodge, aim-and-fire, or get weapons. And my keyboard setup sucks in trying the first two combined, it seems. But it was an interesting and fun experiment! It's something I've been thinking of for this Saturday (Aug. 22, '20) in a certain event." | |

"The level is smaller than it appears, and I had a couple of good "wait here and watch him put himself in front of me" moments because I heard you pick stuff up and knew where you were flying next. I think this level is a bit campier than I remembered, I played Morf here a few times. GG borja." | "I knew this level looked familiar; I fought Chillybus in it during a Mapper Showcase qualifier in one of Ron's Observatory streams. I'm sure I did better there than I did here, though, because I'm fairly sure I didn't shut myself out then as I did here. Entropy was in fine form getting behind me, making surprise ambushes, and having me think both camping and not camping were mistakes." |
