The Jiku’s Surprise - Kingdom vs Kingdom

The Kingdom vs Kingdom event had already been going on for a few hours. I had already attacked and zeroed an enemy castle in the first hour, but since then, everything has been very quiet. My allies and I are holding King's Landing along with other great cities. But Kingdom 407 is practically motionless, with no reaction at all. I find that very strange.

Looking at the points ranking, Kingdom 96, which I am part of, occupied all the spots on the first page, meaning that the enemy kingdom was practically inactive. But my previous experiences with this event taught me that there can always be someone hiding in the shadows, someone waiting for the right moment to appear and then carry out quick attacks to jump to the top of the leaderboard.

As soon as the event started, I scrolled through practically the entire map, but I did not find anything. It was only after twelve hours that someone finally appeared. Someone who had been hiding this entire time.

JiKu was a powerful infantry player from the FDH Alliance. His red equipment and the Night King, with his weapon, made him look scary. I, together with Sup Mestre P and Mustaffa, had troops in King's Landing, and we hid everything we had in our castles. In other words, if he attacked us directly, he would not find anything. But from that moment on, the tension started to increase a lot. And the question we were asking ourselves was whether he would attack King's Landing and how strong he really was.

Time seemed to move more slowly. The three of us were on a voice call trying to come up with a strategy. "And if he attacks, what are we going to do? Are we going to disband? Or are we going to let him hit and see what happens?"

And in the middle of our conversation, JiKu jumped to King's Landing and launched the attack. We had no time to react. He used speed-up boots, and his army hit with everything it had.

Boom!!!

I knew Sup was very strong, but I had no idea that he would capture JiKu's Lord, and that surprised me a lot. But to be honest, the first thing that caught my attention was that Mustaffa sent infantry troops to King's Landing, and obviously that affected the synergy and made us lose more troops than necessary. Even so, we achieved a great victory against such a strong player as JiKu.

After capturing his Lord, we got JiKu's location, and for a brief moment we thought about opening a rally, but we soon realized that we would have a big problem if we did that.

JiKu was very vulnerable without his main Lord. But he still had synergy. Commanders like Vorian and Jaqen were still on the wall. Besides that, I found three other castles that also belonged to him, and clearly, if we opened a rally, he would send reinforcements, and his wall would be packed with troops. So our rally would certainly fail. But I found an even bigger problem.

JiKu had a secondary account, and a very strong one, by the way, but this one was cavalry and also had elite commanders. For long minutes, we thought about what should be done to destroy JiKu. But he decided to make the decision for us, and to have his Lord rescued, he opened a rally on King's Landing. But this time, he would attack with cavalry.

Those five minutes seemed like an eternity. And when the timer reached zero, another three minutes started counting down; this time, it was the march time.

It looked like a horror movie... watching JuKi's army marching was tormenting. Sup asked if we should disband the building and let him make the capture, but at the same time he said that he was strong enough to hold a rally and even win that battle. I, on the other hand, advised him to stay and see what happens. In this KvK, 80% of the troops will be revived, and participating in a battle like this is very important and will teach us a lot.

The clock was ticking: one minute, thirty seconds, ten seconds, three, two, one. Finally, it hit.

What the f***was that? We did not even receive a battle report. I truly believed that we would have a fair battle. Two great cavalry warriors with practically the same number of troops were going to face each other. But to my surprise, we were completely dominated.

Sup is clearly the strongest player among the three of us. And if he was out of the game, there was nothing that Mustaffa and I could do to turn things around. JuKi kept holding his Lord for a few minutes, and I thought he was going to hold him until the end of the KvK to take us out of the game. But after about 25 minutes or so, he released Sup's Lord. So we could capture a great city again. And if he tried to open another rally, we would simply disband the building.

After that attack, I felt that my position in the ranking would be threatened, but JiKu bubbled his accounts and went offline. And during the rest of the event, the three of us went back to holding King's Landing, and I finished the KvK in first place. Besides that, Kingdom 96 was the big winner, and now we will have an entire day to collect diamonds from level 4 and 5 mines.

JiKu stayed online for practically 40 minutes during the 24-hour event, but it was enough to give him, and us as well, adrenaline and a good battle. Thank you, JiKu, for the fun.
