It was a 3vs2 1hk game today, if you were shot you'd sit out for 30 seconds. Here's how the teams looked like:
Team 1:
Deven
Patrick
Phil

Team 2:
Me
Amanda

so my team had a scorpion and a lightning, and I had the scorpion. The other team had an xp220, ees tempest and flash flood.
After deciding on the rules, amanda and i had a 1 minute getaway. We hid in my neighbour's backyard (nobody lives there, so they obviously don't mind). A few minutes later they passed by, but we held our fire (they didn't see us yet). another minute or so they split up. When Deven walked by again he saw me through the fence. He came in, thinking his flash flood can take on two people, though amanda didn't see him yet, so it was 1-on-1 for a few seconds. When she finally saw him, I already got shot, but I got him back. We left the yard and gradually made our way to my house, where we exchanged shots. After a while our numbers advantage was too much and he fled, with the score being 10-5 our favour. We later got my neighbour on our side to make the teams fair. We went to Deven's house for an ambush, but he said Phil and Patrick got too bored and left before even using their water (except on each other)!
So the game ended there, and we won because we had impatient opponents, and we stalled too much, and I knew the area better than everyone else. I was the only one being smart with his water, as my scorpion only re-pumped once. Amanda had to refill a few times, and Deven used the FF shot instead of the normal stream. That's when I realized how good these forums are!

Good job on your first battle report! As i have not been in many water wars that i could possibly report on, just old ones that i have vague memories about. Looks like Deven (socakid) was about to get owned by you guys.

He put up a good fight, but in the end he did get owned. I think I was on the defensive too much though. And I was using the lowest nozzle setting to conserve, but that nozzle doesn't have as much range as the 3x, so I kinda regret not using that.
