The format is so dumb, you can clearly be the best team, pika and xaryu in this case, and lose because nothing really matters until the final round. There's only like 4 serious teams and they all can win it at the end. They should make it just 8 rounds and most points wins so the best teams win, or make it so you have to qualify to be a finalist by hitting X numbers of points and then when you're a finalist if you win a game you win. So teams like Pika and Xaryu would have 1-2 extra chances at winning for being the best team. With the current format you get to the final game and you have #2-#4 best teams all just hunting them to stop them from winning, it's just dumb. Kind of glad it ended with an Echo player exploiting for the win though, that's just a fitting end.
This format encourages all teams to perform at their best until the very end. Even if a team performs poorly in the first few games, they still have a chance to win if it comes down to Game 8. Essentially, the first five games are about fighting for an opportunity to win. The top 3 teams get 3 chances, the top 10 teams get 2 chances, and the remaining teams have only 1 chance.
For the record, Mes and Trill were up on the roofs first, Gingi and Meeres took their strat and won with it. Both 1st and 2nd team used the bug/exploit.
Can't even really be mad at players abusing this kind of stuff (it's still a rat move), but this is another Blizzard L. They knew about it existing and they didn't even bother to patch it out. Anticlimactic to say the least.
Goofy format, I looked it up because I was confused, and it seemed like the way they did it was... 1-5 earns you points. if you're a top 3 team and you win game 6, you win. if you're a top 10 team and you win game 7, you win, If it reaches game 8, whoever wins takes the whole tournament. maybe not exactly that, but that's the idea basically. I dont know why Blizzard believes casual tournaments need silly, obscure rulesets, but they do this kind of thing alot.
@@Zoltri Fucking terrible format IMO - Xar and Pika dominated so bad. Idk how it wouldn't be, if point based, whoever's highest on points after X amount of games would win... then all it means is the better you play, the bigger target you put on your back for that 6th+ game where you can 'actually' win... so lame
Not really.. actually in Mario Party, if you have a nice star lead, it's quite rare that you will lose in the last turns, you need to be very unlucky... but in Plunderstorm? All that matters is just the last turn so it is definitely worse lol
theres no possible way they got more points than pika at the end. they were leading by 28 points and you get like 20 for first place and 15 for 6th. how did an average 5th place team just win randomly
He just got stressed out, when he noticed he is on top, he should have went to get rime - celstial - bird - bulwark and ofc stop with the constant jumping, it nearly killed him 7 times when he jumped into a storm spot. But having cdew equally "stressed" on his ears yapping that fast and not calm isnt helping either. They need to learn to destress themself, its hard, but these guys play games 14 hours a day..would take em a month tops and they would have it locked inn. Im not saying it would get him the win, it would just be the only way he could have done anything to potentially get him down.
Honestly, I was confused trying to understand how Gingi won the tournament, and looking at the format stated on the website, it looks like a 6 year old wrote it, its extremely unclear how tf the tourny even works. But it feels like, in any context doing a multi round tournament in a game as random as this, and just saying, fuck it whoever wins the last round just wins everything feels like the dumbest way to run the event. I don't care who won or lost, but I'm really annoyed at how goofy the format was, just feels like it invalidates so much time to have a single round determine everything.
@@solar1716 At the end of the day, the people in the tournament knew what the rules were and agreed to them. Don't hate the player(s) for doing what was well within the rules to win.
@@DreamingVoid you're actually wrong most trackmania tourney are point based with finalist or cotd style. You can"t just be last place every round and just win the last one to win the tourney
second year in a row with the dumbest system ever, they dont learn from their mistakes. ofc wow sucks and wont get good, they cant even do a proper tourney format. KEKW
Exploiting bugged spots should just be grounds for DQ but I guess they weren't aware that you can just camp a high point and the storm only targets ground floor. Easy fix is to make it hit everything or make the surface force you to slide off...
why do you keep calling this wow lol its def not wow ,, wow classic is actually good this is just for kids.. just becouse the game is made by Blizzard doesnt mean its world of warcraft.. this game is so dumb its actually insane
Soda kicking Blizzard ex employee cause "people" are not comfortable with him. While not kicking jamato with whom people are not comfortable around... No joke Blizzard didnt invite him xdd

Watching Xaryu is always fun. Dude is a monster in WoW.
nyanners and silvervale being invaded and burnt to a crisp inside the hut was the funniest shit ever
actual peak play of the game I think if there were actually sitting the chairs they might have been able to play it off.
Game 2 with Pika and Xaryu was masterclass WoW pvp LMAO
This is the only ending this type of tournament format deserves
i agree some eurotrash finding away to do nothing and win it all lol gg

In this format the top 3 highest points can win in game 6, top ten in game 7

Bro. You are taking this way too seriously 😂
@@tartoon5550it’s literally for $50k. How much money would it take for you to take it serious?
If they were the best team they would have won!
imagine being so hyped for such a hollow win
I would be hype winning 50k
Who cares how you win? If you win you win
@ i would he hype winning 50k if i actually deserved it, but this tournament format and that ending honestly did not deserve it
@ shitty thought process ngl, "who cares how much you cheat lie kill, whatever, if you win you win" not much integrity
lmao soda raging so hard at the RP'ers was the greatest
When you accidentally win of a random jumping pad
For the record, Mes and Trill were up on the roofs first, Gingi and Meeres took their strat and won with it. Both 1st and 2nd team used the bug/exploit.
and they suck equally for it.
@@adamvalek1698 lol sitting roof is smart
dumbest way to win. if they are in a spot that cant be hit, I would say dq for sure. winning a tourney with literally 0 kills is an exploit.
@@ZeTMyN It’s a last-man-standing game, so kills don’t matter. The focus is solely on survival and making it to the end.
People are so dumb, yes they won and yes it’s last man standing, but they just look like pussies when they do that😂 play like a normal person

Was fun to watch live!

Bad format. A team could win the first 5 matches and finish 2nd in the last 3 matches and lose to the 10th place team.
Barny64 & Pint together just shot me in the nostalgia
It's official, Pikaboo is cursed to always be second.
Gingi and cheating go together like peanut butter and jelly
? 🤡
AWESOME to see the biggest rat game style win, just awesome, its like tuning into a piRATsoftware stream
"I have the high ground"
rofl - talk about undeserved bug win - that should have been a replay that last game ^^
the 2nd team used it aswell tho
XarPika in plunder is demon time. They are soo fucknig good.
damn soda should have been the caster for this event
wow this tourney was absolutely crazy!!!
I would loving to be in Only Fangs type shit
thought this was a sp7 fan account or something at first lol
engrish
Trash format, Xaryu and Pikaboo are the winners
32:02 bro is severely confused.. i cannot.
When you get first place and still lose. Blizzard made Mario party basically wtf. Fix your game 😂
Not really.. actually in Mario Party, if you have a nice star lead, it's quite rare that you will lose in the last turns, you need to be very unlucky... but in Plunderstorm? All that matters is just the last turn so it is definitely worse lol
I'm sure the creators really needed the 50k
ive been playing wow my whole life and i have no idea whats happening
Is this game mode available to play for everyone?
🐀 Easy W 🐀
Did y’all pick the winning team? I didn’t 😂
Xar and Pika win i think
@ that’s what I was hoping but I think they got 2nd again
is this a game mode in wow. looks fun
theres no possible way they got more points than pika at the end. they were leading by 28 points and you get like 20 for first place and 15 for 6th. how did an average 5th place team just win randomly
Hope OF plunder tourny can do better. Great performance by all but auto win at the end really sucked 😒
"i got ziqo, i got ziqo! take his loot", bruh what loot? :D
This tournament was epic until the end. lol

Pikaboo and Xaryu had more points tho right? so they win?
hey christian
nice one blizzard
that win is the cringiest shit ive ever seen. grown man btw

TackMania uses this format a lot. So do many other tourneys. It's not their fault you have the life experience of a 10 year old.
@DreamingVoid using the lack of experience with a random low pop game makes you the 10 year old lil fella

gingi always with the roach and cheating moves
Trust in echo to find a cheaty way to win -.-
wait idgi how tf gingi win didnt pika and xar win the most games and top 5 finishes and insane amount of elims?????
FIREEEEE
honestly thats such a sad way to win literally just being a roach on a spot they can't even target waiting for them to die to environmental aoe.
Was good until the end, now it’s just another common Blizz L
second year in a row with the dumbest system ever, they dont learn from their mistakes. ofc wow sucks and wont get good, they cant even do a proper tourney format. KEKW
how did zar and picka not win? they were so far ahead? sorry to say but this was the worst event ive ever watched
what a dumb format lolol by far the best team the most points by a long way get griefed in game 7 and the winners are roaching in the tower
Gingi is so lame lol.
That ending sucked.
gingi pathetic plays
absolute horse shit that Xaryu and Pika didnt win lol

Don't worry Soda, nobody is going to ask you to cast. Your commentary is terrible. Good coverage though.
how no pirate software
soda been brand risk for 10 years. sode doesent get invited. suprice pikachu face
Jfc, your sentence gave me a stroke. Go back to school.
Plunderstorm is possibly the worst thing blizzard has ever made and people like it🤭 blizz fans really are delusional nowadays.
The casters made fun of Europe teams and a Europe team wins it all 😂
Eu has ping diff but still prevails
I like how mad people are about a tournament format for something that literally does not fucking matter 😂
why do you keep calling this wow lol its def not wow ,, wow classic is actually good this is just for kids.. just becouse the game is made by Blizzard doesnt mean its world of warcraft.. this game is so dumb its actually insane
