Actually we played a few matches of the swiss rounds with our second build, but never used our third.

I believe the competition in guild wars is actually still quite high. It used to be only the top 20 guilds would ever pose a threat. As polly said most GvGers have at least 1 year of experiance now and even top 100 guilds can be a challange to defeat.
Back then when EvIL dominated, teams collapsed just because of a simple split. I don't wanna say EvIL were bad or anything, but everyone else just sucked so hard.
Overall there are less top players (several have left, entry barrier for new players is too high), but a lot of the players that are still here know how this game works after two years.

As for buildwars it's always been that way in important tournements from near begining. From Te mantra of lightning monks vs RIFT FC air spike to iQ med shower VoD camp. Half the battle of a tournement is in the pregame and knowing your opponent, get used to it.
I think compared to a while back when you could face everything from euro split on corrupted to SB/RI with spirits on burning, it really got a lot better.

Yeah, we were quite disappointed that we got owned so hard. This can happen when one guy with a very important role for a certain matchup doesn't do his job.

I can tell you exactly how:

16 minutes;
Jatt: VoD's in 2 minutes guys. Let's make sure we knock out some NPC's.
Attempts at killing Archers.

17 minutes;
Jaden: Guys, VoD in 1 minute and they have a load of Shadow Prison, we should pull out.
Stepn: Energy's getting low. We really need to stop pushing and pull out for VoD.
Terror: Just this last Archer! (Which he didn't get)

18 minutes;
Jatt/Jaden/Stepn/Taste: VoD guys, we really need to get the hell out of here cos our Monks are low.

19 minutes;
Stepn/Jaden/Jatt/Taste: TERROR GET OUT OF THEIR NPCS WOW! LOW ENERGY+++!!+!!+!

19:30 minutes;
UMPY WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS ARE YOU ON RAWRS PAYROLL OR SOMETHING?!?!?!?1

wipe.

end.

During RenO vs. rawr

Asp: THIS IS JOWHJGIOQHFIHFFCOH AFHAQFHADLJMD I CANT BELIEVE IT RAGE RAGE WHAT ARE RENO DOING RAGE RAGE.

Note: I have never heard Asp rage so much and had to go to the toilet because of how funny it was.

Blaming Anita for getting Sig Humil faked on him like 4 times is bad. I'm pretty sure the majority of people have / would have fallen into the same trap. Blame game ftw?

Already explained the situation in our forum, can't be bothered to do that again.

Is the rawr vs Reno match the same one that's on obs at the moment under special events? If so the replay seem broken to me, and Reno wins ja few min after VoD. I presume it's reno, it's in an Asian font.
