Murder of Crow (MoC) was the first guild to get Daleth, and Flub (TFG) was the second guild to get it. Who else has made it to 45 wins? Post you guild name here once you do. :D

Congrats MoC and Flub

Congrats, DK2! And again to Flub who received congrats in another thread but deserve it here as well. I expect this list to grow but we have our 1-2-3 already with over 15 hours left in the war! :)

Argry Red Heads got it about an hour ago. Faced some really hard teams along the way but glad that this is over. Well, the winning 45 matches portion anyway, still the cp portion to go.

Congratulations Flub, Order of Dragon Knights 2, and Angry Red Heads!

I am really looking forward to hearing from you and other guilds as they stagger across the finish line of this thing. This was a very interesting twist to the game; it turned away from how many times you can tap on the attack button, and leveled the playing field by removing or reducing the dependence on gem spending. Not sure Gree would like to hear about that part of it, but to their credit it added to the competitiveness of the game and to the level of thinking and participation required to succeed.

It's not my intention to downplay or dismiss the achievements of the top guilds in this and past wars -- the members of FUN and RK in particular deserve credit and respect for the way they consistently dominate the game and earn remarkable point totals. They have been playing the game according to the way it was set up, you can't blame them for being better able to get to #1 or #2 all of the time. Also I'm pretty sure they're going to figure this one out too and we'll be seeing them here before the end of the war. They are a very competitive and determined bunch of people.

Some things this quest did to shake up the game for all of us:

1. The prize could only be earned by teamwork and tremendous effort. It could not be "bought". International guilds had an advantage in that they could win more times in a twenty-four hour period than guilds whose members all lived in the same time zone. But everyone still had to work hard together to earn every win.

2. The prize was available to any guild and every guild had the ability to compete for it. It was not limited to a single winner, or to a limited number of top scorers; an unknown number of guilds could get the award. Many guilds approach wars knowing that they can't shoot for the top prize because they simply don't have the resources to do it; every guild had the same 72 hours and the same physical and mental limitations to deal with in shooting for Daleth.

3. The prize could be won before the end of the war, and could not be lost once it was won. These things changed the strategy and the feel of the war a lot. Knowing guilds would be fighting for needed wins at the end led us to push to finish as early as possible; knowing that once we had the prize we could relax made for a far different feel once we got it as opposed to having to sweat out the final hours of a war not knowing if we were going to be bumped out of our position.

These are just three of the things that I've been thinking about since this thing started. I'm not a scholar or game theory expert. I'm just a game player who had a lot of fun with the wrinkles put into KA by this quest. This is not going to solve any of the world's problems but it sure distracted me from them for a weekend. No doubt there have been some frustrations and the system is not perfect -- match times are clearly an issue that top-level guilds have to deal with, but perhaps that works as a handicapping and balancing force. But it has made the game interesting again, for me at least, and I'm sure for many others.

Looking forward to hearing your own thoughts on this.

I agree this war has been the most fun I have had since the day the wars first came out. I had more pride and fun being in the first guild to grab this prize, than I had placing Top3 twice back to back (never thought I would ever say that). But like you stated, it wasn't just all bought, some real strategy also had to go into it.

Order of Dragon Knights - ODK now have 45 wins and our Daleth. Difficult to achieve for a top 10 team as people kept talking about. Which unless I'm mistaken we are the first of the top 10 teams.

We had a blast trying to make it happen with more strategy then we've ever had to use for other wars. Funny that our sister guild (DK2) achieved the 45 wins before us.... and with only 11 members :D

Congrats to MoC, Flub and ARH.... and ODK

Impossible for some. Deck was stacked against us from pairings. Really didn't have a shot at it, but don't know why a 200 ranking guild was paired against top 25/50 guilds 75% of the time. Only time we fought guilds like, this at this pace, was when we gemmed it up and ranked 58; four wars ago. Quite depressing when you know your not going to win just from your opponents name.

I'm happy for all of you.

I'm a bit surprised nevertheless as we got matched about 8 times against FUN and RK and not even speaking about the remaining top 5 guilds.

Really seems if you want to get the unit as 'top guild', you need to drop a bit to lower regions and 'force' easier matchings.

Anyway congratz all... we want make it but will end around 40-43.

After losing first to DW(Tiki your a beast GG) with 44 wins,the next matchup with iRaid finally gives us Daleth...Im very proud of FKG2...Team Deadzone Rules(you know who you are guys)..Congrats also to other guilds who have gotten the unit..Goodluck to other guilds that are nearing their 45th win..

The mighty PFJ have just got 45th win for the unit!! Well done to all my team, YOU ARE AWSOME!!!!!

Well done to all the other guilds out there who have worked just as hard to get the 45 wins, and also thanks to the guilds that didn't work quite so hard and made it possible for us all. Especially The Elites (135+) who gave us a massive run for our money on our 45th battle.

That last battle was the longest hour of my life!!!!

Glad to see you guys got it Cru! It was a helluva long weekend for us too, but we got it early this morning after an all-nighter! During the night we got FUN twice in a row, RK twice, SB, and FKG. Damn, we haven't fought that many top 10's ever and we were hanging in the top 50 most of the time, not even the top 25!

Glad GREE found a way to inject some strategy back in the game! Now if they would quit screwing up other stuff... *cough* Gold Doubloons

We declared at the end to put a few "insurance" points up to stay Top 50 and our opponents are putting up HUGE numbers to secure their spot. They are a great guild and no Daleth in the inventory so I hope we put them over the top! ETA: Scratch that - it's only my primary target who had no Daleth - he/she must have not logged in since they won it. Congrats, guys.

Congrats to Brutal-JMA, TheGoodLife, Kings Gate, spyglassk's guild, and BoB. Sorry we made it we didn't take it easy on you BoB, lol. We were on a Mission from God (Blues Brothers reference, not being serious. Well, serious about us being very, very driven on a mission, but not from God).

Forums Finest Fighters has finished, early this morning PST. Current record is 48-9 with one double glitch-win. Final battle about to begin. Loved this change, we all did. We're in 300 bracket with 20 players and a bunch of free space.....

We are seeing guilds able to declare in the last hour, and possible leaderboard refreshes where it should be frozen by now. Could be server issues... could be the war has been extended an hour... if you're close, don't give up, try for one more declaration... you never know, it could make a difference!

We got in a declaration with under 30 min to go... sorry Dark Striders...

Leaderboard now looks locked.

Last battle ended early, when the war clock expired.

Two accounts on two very strong Guilds. So if they meet each other you will obviously attack your own weaker "teammate"? Yes?

Lol, when they've met in earlier wars both sides take most of the hour off. There's too many friendships across the barricades to do otherwise. The higher stakes this time meant that didn't happen quite the same, but some nifty shuttle diplomacy kept things to a minimum :)

(Yep, that's right - KG2 finished just Top 750 but got Daleth - pretty impressive!)
