Just watched another run today. It's not often I have 2 hours alone time to watch DMS runs and it does take longer because I rewatch critical parts to analyze and review crucial parts as well as watch for dialogue and direction.
This crew is probably the most daring crew I've seen and it's obvious that they are all very good at the game and working as a team from the fact that they cleared GR in 59 minutes including hitting HPR first and backtracking. This crew had perfect mapping and didn't lose count of rooms at all putting the average time per room at around 3 minutes. How did they do it? They had no safety net. The crew leader had medic set as per was the norm for most crews, but what set this crew apart is that they only had one defib in crew for the entirety of the run and filled most of the other spots with attacks and passives with one person getting 5 attacks and many getting 2 passives with one bu in GR-crypt with a bubu for BL they also used the fleet method and didn't change ringsets until BL.
The downside to this strat was that when the Tank (luca) died in HPR she was forced to walk back from null and when others died like Cross Debts did a lot of... well that slowed things down a lot. Also I noticed that because the tank was occupied in GR and Crypt there wasn't much adrening going on which doesn't matter much in GR but slowed things down in crypt.
For BL the team used the toggle method with the tank raging heals on the crew and didn't lose aggro at all, though the tank did move closer to the team at one point and killed Cross debts and karazu and the team had to wait for defib from the tank and since karazu was the adrener that also slowed things down. I did like how the team dropped ghost and coy for BL and did just fine so yeah, a daring team to the end and willing to take chances.
I'm glad I put in the timeout rule because there was a DC that ate up 2 minutes of the team's time although it had been so long since I wrote the rule I forgot it was two 15 min breaks and said it was two 10 minute breaks
Derp
As for leadership? It's hard to judge. The crew was especially quiet and Luca only really gave directions when things started to go wrong. I got the feeling that the crew knew what to do from experience and as such Luca didn't need to vocalize and the others didn't say much other and while that's fine, it doesn't really show leadership skills in a way I can easily measure. Same thing goes for congeniality.
Crew deaths:
CCatman: 1 (Fastest death in the derby I think in GR a few rooms in. You sat too close to the BD in a very small room and were at the very edge of his AOE range) You were so close to undisputed survivor!
Stupidmanboobs: 1 (sui for ring change for BL. Nice going!)
Xx_LucaPyon_xX: 2
Karazu _Yagami15: 2
Klashie: 1 (sui for ring change for BL. Nice going!)
Cross debts: 6 ... you accounted for nearly half the team's deaths.
mrgreen
A testament to simplicity and efficiency this crew was and fun to watch in action.
Time was 2:07 but there was a 2 minute break due to a DC so the time I got was 2:05 total. I'll double check the break time, of course, in case I am mistaken.
