Champions again. MPOC: Sultan of Kedah Cup

Again MPOC has outdone themselves. Although the change of venue in consideration for the local football league, the alternative was not half bad. The field was excellent, flat, firm and hardly any debris (rocks, sticks and etc.). The weather was the biggest challenge. Not a drop of rain for the entire duration of the competition and the temperature was in the mid 30s. A few players suffered from heatstroke which means the competition was extremely tough on everyone.

We had to change our line-up on at the last minute (more like an hour before our game) due to a tiny mishap but otherwise were were pretty sorted. Prelims had us loosing 2 games out of 9 with a bonus walkover that slotted us mid table for the Q8. There was no Q16 as there were not enough teams for division 3. We made the semis with 2 wins out of 3 games in the Q8. That brought us square to meet Labuan Fighters. It was a great game as both were strong off the break. Still we manged to tip them for the finals against home favourite Votolocos. We were dragged for a 3rd game. They were fast but we countered with strong zoning off the break which secured us a hatrick and strengthening our lead in Div3 MPOC 2011.

This event was the debut for the NT11 for us. With most of us did not have the time to run the markers in and pretty much tune it generally just to last 4 pods everyone was pretty happy. Not a single time did the NT11 gave problems. It was even better when we used RPS Premiums and Evils. By the end of prelims all of us were very impressed and tuned the markers to suit our individual styles. Come Q8 onwards we were grinning from ear to ear behind our i4s making kills.

Our greatest thanks to God for our winning streak for MPOC, Dye Precision for all the gears, RPS for the awesome paint and Energy Paintball for the juice needed and Napshot. To the family, friends and fans we appreciate your support and will continue our efforts to make history.
