[img]https://i.imgur.com/uTATpy1.jpg[/img] The dust has settled on another GvG season... and with all points tallied, the winner once again is [b]Blue Army[/b]. For the second season in a row, this organized and efficient crew took a creative and results-based approach to racking up season points, and claimed their second crown. In the aftermath of Season 4, Blue Army were the undisputed kings of open-world ZvZs. But with a pre-season point adjustment to castles, as well as a robust Crystal GvG scene already underway, their dominance in Season 5 was never a sure thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIVYecdiMcg However, with an early surge by several [b]SQUAD [/b]teams, Blue Army was able to capture and hold Caerleon along with numerous other plots, assuring them a steady flow of funds throughout the season. Coupled with excellent shotcalling, powerful GvG teams, and a still-unstoppable ZvZ presence, their path to victory became clearer as the season progressed. Congratulations once again to Blue Army on their second consecutive win - for a comprehensive rundown all the Season 5 highlights by AlbionTV's own [b]Shozen[/b], click [url=https://albiononline.com/en/news/shozens-season-5-highlights][b]here[/b][/url].
