So over the past weekend Rockin’ Cocks and RC Rev had team practice at Pev’s Paintball in Aldie, VA. This weekend was a chance for a few to kick off the cobwebs and others to spend time with their momma’s. The weather was great and the field was great as usual and the layout is still the 2011 NPPL Chicago, which confidently saying RC has on lock seeing as we never lost a game all day. We also had a few new peeps out there this weekend.
The first part of practice was Rockin’ Cocks versus RC Rev. RC Rev consisted of Scott and a few new players this weekend, Tony, Dana and team frequent flyer Bob! Rockin’ Cocks consisted of Amish, O, EZ and I. The games for the most part were pretty even and players swapped in and out of both teams all day, we also picked up the occasional walk-on to make 5 on 5 and we even played a game with J-Rab of team Russian Legion/Arsenal. He was a little shocked that we all played pump, but we showed him a thing or two.
We also played a few teams that were there such, as Iron Legion and team Swag. Iron Legion would only play us if we picked up two other players so we did and we played them 7 on 5. We rolled them convincingly finishing with 3 up, after that they refused to play us anymore. We also played 3 games with team Swag. Game 1 was close and it ended with a 2 on 2. O and I were the only ones left for RC, I was in the snake (S1) and O was on the d-side. Swag had S3 and the 50 roller. The roller looked away and I took off and ran train on the snake guy, right as I shoot him, the roller looked back and bounced me, and a second later shoot me. O then shot the roller and that was game one. We rolled Swag in game 2, 5 up and probably less than a minute. Game 3 came down to a 3 on 2, with EZ and me being the only RC guys left. Swag had the snake corner, there 50 wedge, and the d-side cube. I was stuck in S1 and EZ was in either D1 or D2. For some reason the snake corner looked away and I got into S3, I shot the 50 wedge and then somehow EZ called himself out. It came down to a 2 on 1 at this point, they didn’t know where I was until the corner saw me. For some reason, the cube tried to fill over and I shot him, then the corner tried to run me down, but between me shooting him and him running out of bounds he was out. RC would finish with 3 wins straight over Swag.
The last game of the day was RC versus RC Rev, it was a 3 on 4. The game started off with a clean break-out for both teams, however RC Rev pushed the field a little more and had the 50 wedge pretty quick. Amish tried to end that, however he bunkered the wrong Wedge, but O finished off Scott. EZ then filled it and shot O, so it came down to a 3 on 1. EZ filled our D1 and Dana moved to our snake brick, Tony stayed in the snake corner on their side. I shot EZ on the hopper and then Dana as he tried to come and shot me, I then went down the snake and shot Tony. Tony played smart going from the corner to the back center, however I ran him down and that was it.
Overall the practice was pretty successful and next weekend RC will be playing in the PEV’s PTS 5-man Tourney. Tony, Dana, and Bob all played great and are always welcomed to come and play with the team. Stay tuned for the after tourney update!
