OVERVIEW
As both armies were preparing for the Around The World Cup tournament, this practice battle was an opportunity for them to improve battle-wise, with the Doritos of Club Penguin having their first battle on May 27 and the Water Vikings first battling on May 28. With the two armies being in different groups in the tournament and both armies having the major army status, this makes it a great way to prepare for the tourney.
ROOM 1 – COVE
The room began with DCP entering first. WV then moved into a V form, and DCP mirrors that. Sizes at this time are 20-18 in favor of the Vikings. WV is able to cover more efficiently within this form, shadowing the Doritos. DCP then rakes early and moves into a UV form. Afterwards, WV bombs and then form a UT. In their forms, WV struggles with bunching while DCP’s form suffers with out-of-form troops. Both armies then bomb again and move into a plus to close off the room. This room was declared a tie due to both armies having moments of dominance and covering with speed.
