Bragging Rights - Series #2

We caught up again with our winner of Villain 1-on-1 Challenger Series #2 (V1o1CS2), Pengiran Khairoden Nizam also known as Oden for many others. He currently plays for Macdev Ronin in Div1 MY-NPL. Here are some questions he struggles to answer.

VPB: Congrats on the win. What do you think of the Villain 1-on-1 Challenge Series?
Oden: Thank you, it was awesome, a good experience for me and others. A good way to promote the sports!!!

VPB: Did you think you could win in the beginning?
Oden: Since i won it!!! yes, of course i could win from the start, LOL, kidding.... well, actually no...guess it was just my luck

VPB: Yeah, luck is really something. What would you like to see in the future series?
Oden: More lady competitor and more ladies.... hehehe

VPB: Girls eh? I'd figure you'd say that. If you have to shoot with a mechanical marker, would you still play?
Oden: Hmm....yup, mechanical would do for me...but i ain't going in alone with it....make sure all of the players goes in with the spider as well

VPB: Fine. Would you play in a 4 corner match? - 4 players start at each corner of the field in a decider, last man wins.
Oden: sounds interesting...would love to give it a try...and yes, i would play these format

VPB: Cool! Was leaving your boots at home an excuse not to join or you're just plain absent minded? *grins evilly*
Oden: Leaving the boots at home was part of the plan...psycho org maa!!!! actually, i forgot to bring it....

VPB: Haha! Whom did you share the peanuts all by yourself?
Oden: Family and family only, mom and dad ate it all!!! Oden hates peanuts!! (Sometimes he calls himself as a third person)

VPB: Congratulations, now you have the bragging rights until the next series. Anything to say to the blog readers?
Oden: Hmm, the most important thing is, train, TRAIN and TRAIN hard...dont give up half way and be creative in the game....trust me, it helps...

VPB: Thank you. See you again at the next series.

Villain 1-On-1 Challenge Series #2: The Conclusion

This time around, we had 11 participants for the second series with a good mix of experienced and new players. There were supposed to be more but some had to withdraw and some just didn't care to inform that they weren't attending. Nevertheless, it was still exciting and most of all - WE HAD FUN! Caranthir joined in at the last minute and we also had a 'tag team' which comprised of Terry (Demonz) & Wei (DR).

There were new rules to the challenge - players must touch the opponents gate & run back to touch his own gate in order to win and reloads were allowed. Additionally, players were allowed to use their own markers. MAPAAC also greatfully loaned a Cyborg and a Timmy for the players which had no markers of their own.

The challenge kicked off at about 10am with each players playing about 4 games in the preliminary round. Top 8 players will get the chance to advance to the QF stage playing in a best of 3 format. Then its off to the Semis and finally - The Final.

In the Preliminary round, Terry, El-Gato, Arm, Oden, Greg, Hafiz & Hata made the early cut to go into the Quarters. The final spot was decided by a tie breaker which saw Ice melted by Caranthir. The Quarters saw Tag Team Terry & Ah Wei going up against Caranthir, El Gato versus Hata, Arm taking on Hafiz and the Ronin Family Feud - Greg challenges Oden. For the knockout rounds, we've decided that it'll be a non stop affair - they must finish all games before they can leave the field. The first two brackets saw the players slugging it out til the 3rd game while the final two finished off their opponents with swift action.

After dispatching their opponents, this was how the Semis would play out. El-Gato faces Caranthir while Arm will attempt to take out Oden. In the Gato Vs Caranthir battle, the former drew first blood taking down his opponent at close range. Caranthir evened out the score taking out Gato advancing from the 50s. The deciding game saw Gato gunning down Caranthir in a close range melee to take the win. Arm of DRX & Oden of Ronin was a close match as well as both of them fought like their life depended on this game. Oden who was a more experienced player of the two secured his place in the Final.

The weather was hot but the second installment of the Villain 1-On-1 Challenge was SCORCHING! In the Finals - Oden goes head to head with El-Gato of Banzai! Both individuals are great players in their team and possibly the league. It wasn't easy for these guys to get into the finals, the opponents they had to encounter did everything possible to stop them from advancing. Now it was time to choose the best and both players certainly have their sights locked on the Grand Prize - Bragging Rights til the next series! It seemed that Oden was much hungrier than El Gato who probably had too much to chew when he took down Caranthir in the Semis. The Gato fell into Oden's trap on both occasions giving the latter two straight wins for a Final victory.

The excitement didn't stop there, the participants & organizers adjourned to the VIP Players Tent for rounds of drinks, gossips and UNO STACKO!!!

Will Oden return to defend his 1-On-1 crown or will he chicken out in the next series? That we will find out in March when the Villain 1-On-1 Challenge returns. In the meantime, we would like to thank MAPAAC & their crew and MacDev for their support. Hopefully for the next series we would be able to provide the players with a more exciting format & prizes. Keep tuning into Villainpaintball for news updates on the next series and other things PAINTBALL!
