Season 8, Week 8: TEAM vs. Brock Samson's Fighting Murderflies


Let it go, let it go,
Turn away and slam the door;
I don't care what they're going to say,
Let the storm rage on.
The cold never bothered me anyway.”


                        “Let it Go,” Frozen – Idina Menzel

I look upon the teams which will do battle in this Season 8, Week 8 Match located on Ice Climber Mountain.  They are as follows:
 
TEAM: Marvel Woman, Young Marvel Man, Apocalypse Twins: Uriel and Eimen, Gothmog, Glaurung, Captain Rex in a snow speeder, Commander Cody in a snow speeder and Mike “Goof Juice” Geney in a snow speeder, Dark Side Adept 13, Little Goombas 17-25.

Brock Sampson’s Fighting Murderflies: The Shadow, Vampire Lestat, Asgardian Matt Oblak, Wu-Tang Clan: Rakwon, Gza, Rza, Inspectah Deck, Method Man, U-God, Cappadonna, Ghost Face Killah, Masta Killa and Ol Dirty Bastard, A.L.F. with heat axe, BL He-Man, Jareth the Goblin King, Blair Witch, Quick Draw McGraw, Robotic Moe, Larry and Curly, Jedi Masters 18A-27A.

Let the battle begin. . .

The Wu-Tang Clan shimmies up the icy mountain.

Rakwon: This be some dope snow and sh$t!

Masta Killa:  Air be buzzin’ in my head.

Cappadonna: That’s cuz there ain’t no oxygen and stuff up this high.

Gza: Only high I know is through the chronic boyz.

Rza: True dat!

Uriel and Eimen fly to the scene and land in front of the entire Clan.  The Apocalypse Twins spread their enhanced wings.  Uriel fires razor sharp blades of energy while Eimen fires globs of highly potent acid out of their wings.  Gza and Rza fall to Uriel and Eimen respectively. 

Ghost Face Killah: Dat be some trippin’ sh#t!

Ol Dirty Bastard:  Our a$$es gotsta go muthaf#Ca!!

The remaining Wu Tang Clan members race across the icy terrain along the mountainside.  The Apocalypse Twins take to the air.  The duo veers from the fray and flies away.  Three snow speeders race to the battle.  Geney leads Cody and Rex as the trio soar toward the Clan.

Geney:  Open fire on my command.

The Clan looks up in dismay, they are trapped like rats.

Cappadonna addresses his teammates: We be f#Cked!

Geney:  FIRE!!!

The snow speeders unleash their weaponry and the entire clan is decimated by the three fighters. 

Gothmog leads Little Goombas 17-25.  The Goombas race ahead and face A.L.F.  The diminutive alien uses his heat axes to slice through Goombas 17, 19-22.  The remaining Goombas jump on A.L.F. and tear him apart with their fangs.   Meanwhile, the orc leader battles Jareth the Goblin King and is victorious.  Gothmog rips the head off of the porcelain skinned goblin and drinks the blood dripping from his neck.  The Blair Witch races toward Gothmog and shreds the orc with her claws.  Robotic Moe, Larry and Curly scamper to the scene. 

R Curly: Hey Moe!  Gotta go!

R Moe: Go where you moron!

R Curly: Go to Goomba Hell.

The trio easily destroys the remaining Goombas.

Dark Side Adept 13 attempts to take on Jedi Masters 18A-27A to no avail.  The hubris of the Dark Side is no match for the skilled warriors and DSA13 quickly perishes.  Marvel Woman and Young Marvel Man arrive and systematically, one by one, defeat and kill the Jedi Masters.  Nonetheless, Young Marvel Man eventually succumbs to his wounds and falls in battle.

From an opening on the side of the mountain, creeping from the darkness within, are the Shadow and Vampire Lestat.  The two surprise and surround Marvel Woman. Although Marvel Girl rips the heart out of the Shadow, she dies at the teeth of Lestat. 

Glaurung flies above the peaks and opens its gullet.  The fire from the beast’s gullet bursts forth and rips into Robotic Moe, Larry and Curly.

Robotic Curly: Nyuk.  Nyuuuukkk. . . Nyuuuu. . .

The three become liquid metal.

The land speeders race over the tundra.  Quick Draw McGraw closes one eye and fires both pistols.  The marks horse hits Captain Rex’s ship in the perfect location and the right engine begins to smoke.  Rex steers his flaming vehicle into McGraw and kills the horse in the crash.  Rex shimmies from his ship and the clone is immediately killed by Asgardian Matt Oblak. 

BL He-Man flies above to Cody’s ship.  The black lantern Eternian shreds the cockpit open and throws Cody to his death.  While distracted, BL He-Man turns around and is killed by Uriel and Eimen. 

Geney enters into a formation with Glaurung, Uriel and Eimen.  Geney destroys the Blair Witch.  Uriel kills Lestat and Oblak dies at the claws of Glaurung and Geney, but not before taking out Uriel  in the skirmish. 

Geney looks from his snow speeder at his remaining teammates and smiles.  Victory is theirs. . . today.

Brock Sampson’s Fighting Murderflies: All dead.

TEAM: Glaurung, Mike “Goof Juice” Geney and Eimen survive.

TEAM IS VICTORIOUS!!!






David Parks said...

Got that one up fast, nice work.

Artifact said...

Goof won! Except he won for Ed.

Nice one bry. Save some of Bama's love juice for me.

Josh the Commish said...

It is official. Becks does not deserve to go to The Star Wars Celebration. How could one who is willing to fly across the country for Star Wars not be aware that it takes two people to fly a snow speeder?? FOR SHAME!! And for Ed, a man who claims Empire to be his favorite Star Wars movie???? He should know better as well. I suspect foul play at work.

Josh the Commish said...

J.K.

Josh the Commish said...

TEAM clinched the playoffs with this win. Their match against The Sith Aids next week will determine the winner of the division and who will get the first round bye.

Solobeck said...

Joshatu: watch Empire again-- when the Rebels find Han and Luke on the tundra- only the pilot. Two are only used in certain battle situations. This match- Goof, Cody and Rex did not need a second. Shame. Good thing you're not going to CVII- you would embarrass us during trivia.

Josh the Commish said...

The second person is the gunner. If the ship is used to attack, which it was in this match then it must have a second person. And you're right, I would embarrass you during trivia because I would be on a different team and I'd waste you with my "bomb a** sick" Star Wars skillz: BEOTCH!!

Solobeck said...

I cannot comment back because you are simply wrong and a moron. Look it up.

Artifact said...

Yes! Let loose your anger!

Ryan said...

Side note... When you read "Jedi Masters 18A-27A," please read it as "Elephant #9-10, and Ape Soldier #1-6, 24-25," cause that's who the Murderflies have.

Solobeck said...

Sigh. . . Shamed. . .

NFG Mike said...

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!!!

Ryan said...

No worries Becks. These commons have been a pain in the taint to keep track of this season as it is.

Josh the Commish said...

So, Luke Skywalker: one of the best pilots in the alliance, Jedi in training, and leader of Rogue Squadron needed Dack; but Goofjuice can easily pilot one in to battle on his own. EPIC. WATCHER. FAIL.

Captain Obvious said...

Josh is trying to call out a Watcher for his inaccuracies of his portrayal of a character/vehicle.

Incredible.

Artifact said...

I may be mistaken but I think the pilot was able to fire the front lasers and the tow rope. The second was simply a tail gunner who shot shit in the back.

Snow Speeder said...

Oh yeah, ride me big boy. Bring a friend if you want.

Artifact said...

If you want... but not necessary.

Ryan said...

Artifact is correct. Though there is a gunner, the pilot can assume the controls and fire the weapons himself. Or herself. Or itself, in the case of one Darth Shemalya.

Continuity Cop said...

"The Rebels armed the craft with dual AP/11 dual laser cannons and converted the cargo manager into a gunner. Computerized targeting systems and displays were used by the gunner to control the lasers and harpoon gun. However, the pilot could take control of weapons if needed."

Artifact said...

22 comments and counting. None of which are Ed or Goof. lol

Ryan said...

Josh....You done been ticketed by the Continuty Cop!

Josh the Commish said...

"Nice shot Jackson".

-Wedge: to his gunner, after he fires the tow rope. Am I the only who's even seen these movies??

George Lucas said...

Josh,

Luke was barely in a Jedi training at that point. He needed Dack because he still had a boner from kissing his sister and it got in the way of the controls.

Ryan said...

The Gunner would have a better view on when to fire the tow cables in that attack. I don't remember there being much row cable usage in this match.

Point is invalid.

RobC said...

Gong!!!! I went to RAW on Monday. Cool story bro I know, but I have to come to my boy josh's defense, this good fella (RAW reference) couldn't hold Luke's swamp pillow, if Luke needed a gunner so does goof

Wes Janson said...

JACKSON!?!?!

Come on people. Get my name right!

I'm talking to you Jersh!

The Order of the Universe said...

False Dilemma:

You can pilot and fire weapons from a snow speeder if you have two people.

*OR*

You leave it in the hanger to be destroyed by the Empire

Obviously there are more than two options, as this Watcher has so eloquently proven. Such as one pilot's amazing ability to pilot the snow speeder and fire it's weapons.

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/False_dilemma

Also, Star Wars is rife with logical fallacies and inconsistencies so quoting a single part and using it as irrefutable proof is probably not the best strategy.

Josh the Commish said...

Points taken. Like any reasonable person would do, I concede.

RobC said...

Nooooooo Josh I vouched for you, you can't do this to US, fight Josh fight.

Josh the Commish said...

Sorry Janson, Auto correct gets me every time. And I'm sorry I got the league so butthurt. Furthermore, it is probably for the best that you girls are all on the same cycle now (#raid on the bon bons). I just hope it doesn't keep Becks from hooking up with any cute Lando impersonators at Celebration.

Rack em.

I'm out!!

Josh the Commish said...

Robc,

Part of being in the Fantasy Fantasy League is being fair and consistent with each other. When we provide another member with feedback that fills in knowledge gaps, one's best course of action is to be civil and admit defeat. Stubborn fighting just isn't in my nature.

Josh the Commish said...

And who the f&@k is posting as me?? Seriously, that's weak. Remind me to kick you in the dick later.

Josh the Commish said...

I hope you guys know I'm kidding by the way. I was just picking on Bryan because it is what we do. I don't actually lose sleep over snow speeder fan fiction.

Good match Becks, and nice win Ed!!

Artifact said...

This is the most fun I've had at work in a long time.

RobC said...

I've been duped by a fake josh, I feel pathetic

Josh the Commish said...

Ouch that hurts. I just kicked myself in the dick. It was both physiological impossible and very painful.

Artifact said...

Says the FAKE RobC

RobC said...

I'm pretty sure I'm posting on a REAL google account, check the deets son before flinging baseless accusations

Artifact said...

You haven't used the words "Bloody Hell" or "Tea time". So you are not our jolly little friend from across the pond.

RobC said...

Did u bloody forget I was born in 'merica, eff man I went to a wwe event this week, I'm just over here for the pounds, that's dolllas to u across the pond, and ales

Clearly this match was a travesty.

Not since Michael Bay's ... well basically everything he's done... have characters of color been so incorrectly portrayed.

...

There's no way the Wu Tang holds up under cold weather as long as they did in this match... shits freezin on that ice mountain dog... word is bond son...

Solobeck said...

Epic Commentary from all. Better then match itself. Thanks guys! -Bryatu

Josh the Commish said...

Oh, and by the way: a sharp shooter like Quick Draw McGraw would not close an eye while firing two pistols. He would need to leave both eyes open for such perfection in accuracy.

Just another GLARING error in this shameful match.

Artifact said...

Get off your high horse Commish! You embarrass the league.

Artifact said...

Someone stole my phone at C7

Josh the Commish said...

Ha!! Must have been Bama.
