Good day Damen and Hurren, and welcome back for this second Weekly Bulletin and its weekly previews!
I hope all of you have had a great first week... even if the results seems to be harsh for most of the regiments, both league included.
Indeed it has been quite a difficult first week, as five regiment has been defeated 10 to 0, as well as three others who have scored only one or two rounds against their opponents.
Consequently only two matches were close with a final score of 6-4, one in each league.
But the tournament only started and nothing is played yet, in defeat can sometime lies the key to victory.
And it is the least we can hope for this second week as some interesting matches are to be played.
League 2 will witness 16e against 2Lr, quite a clash as they have both harshly defeated their opponents this first week.
2Lr is also a dangerous regiment with a numerous and solid player base despite its slow descent to L2 over the last couple of year,
following its restructuration and the departures in its staff over the years.
Nonetheless the regiment was once a challenger in L1 and now still remains a solid opponent to face.
Which brings 16e to be careful if they want to come out victorious.
16e is a discrete regiment, it has been around since early 2015 which is quite sometime.
Since then, it remained more of a casual regiment while offering a challenge to those willing to fight its roster composed of quite good players to an extent.
However over the last year, it seems to have improved its teamplay as well as increased its numbers which can be useful against 2Lr.
To conclude on this match, both regiments have the tools to defeat its opponent, now we only have to see which one will use them the most effectively!
League 1 will be the host to a really crispy match, which is 9e against 8th.
Two of the rising stars of this League 1 are to tear each others apart in this wonderful second week, isn't that amazing?
Both regiments have entered the tournament already equipped and prepared for this season as they defeated their first opponents with a brutal 10-0 each.
But what about the both facing each others?
The 8th is younger than the 9e, it has been formed early 2017 and has been growing and improving rapidly since then with forty victories over forty-eight matches in 2017.
Since the beginning of the year, they have played twelve matches and won nine of them, most of them against L1 regiments.
It has managed to climb up to a challenger place in a bit more than a year which is quick.
A core composed of veterans as well as an effective staff have certainly helped.
However, a little part of their community is also composed of other members from different regiments.
Because of that the regimental roster is reduced in tournaments such as the CNWL.
Nonetheless just with this first week, it proved it can bring numerous men to the battlefield as well as to defeat its opponent without mercy.
The 9e is born late 2015, it is old of two and half year, which means it had more time to acquire experience.
Since its creation, the regiment played 87 matches, losing only fourteen of them and drawing seven times.
Recently it defeated most of L1 regiments such as 5e, 7e, 1erRC, Nr6, 6te, in addition of a draw against the very regiment it has to face this week.
It also tied against the 4e few months back, making it the second regiment to draw the 4e after the 5e, in three years.
It has slowly but certainly managed to cut its way through Top tier and has improved enough to become a serious challenger for this year's title.
The regiment started to forge a solid core and from it built around a regiment mostly composed of fearless players trained over the months.
Hardened by all the battles fought and with a ferocious determination and teamplay, it can seriously pretend to be the one to take down the 4e and its three years of domination over the L1 title.
But will it manage to achieve this goal? The 8th still has its word to say, and it can be a very determinant one!
