== About Us ==
We're a fun loving guild, always playing and interacting with each other whether it's in random/guild LD or in runs, helping each other better improve our gear.
We are mainly focused on lockdown, constantly challenging other guilds to play us. We don't always win, but we always have fun. (Auto aim is
not permitted during GvG for our members, as we strive to be the best we can without any assistance or advantages. We're often called "FB"
[No, it doesn't mean Facebook, it means First Blood XD] which is why you will often see us yelling "Down with Twitter!" :D
Now that we're back we want to start fresh and have old members as well as new, which is why we are now open to T3 CLOCKWORKS recruitment!
This meaning that basically if you have 4* to 5* (preferably 4*), you have a good personality, AND you're active, we want you in First Blood! :D
This said, First Blood is still MAINLY focused on lockdown though, so members should be able to play lockdown at a decent level (hitting hitting 8k+ a game with each cap and def counting as 500 damage). For those who are not used to lockdown, fear not, just say the word and a guild member will train you into a better player :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
== News ==
Right now we've got lots of good swordsmen, so we'll be on the look out for good gunners and bombers.
Currently at 50~ members since reincarnation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Events==
At the moment we compete with each other with in-house guild vs. guild battles. Each person will count how many wins and losses they have (of course we will know whether or not they lie about it) and at the end, whoever has the highest score (i.e +4 would obviously beat -2) will get...
DUN DUN DUN... Bragging rights because Fod-Fod is too broke and lazy to supply a prize >:D
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
== FBBC - First Blood Boot Camp ==
We will be training loyal members to become better lockdown players, based on different playing styles, weapons and preferences. Just ask an officer or guildmaster for some help and we'll deliver :)

== Meet the Guild ==
Guild Masters! [Our members will often tell people they're "GMs." Slap them in the face for me.]
Fodow - Founder, Head GM and Recruitment Manager :
Me! I love to have fun, normally playing LD with my friends and guildies. I don't think it's fair when teams have leavers, so spectators will often see me running around in T3 LD with proto or cyclops (troll) armour to make teams fair ;D If you're looking for a loan, I'm not the guy to ask. I'll often be broke, as I rarely EVER do clockworks XD Usually when I do clockworks it's because my cousins or guildies force me to :P.

Danzepickle - The Loyalist :
Danze loves the guild, always defending it and making people feel welcome here. He is my cousin, so we love playing with each other, since he lives far away, it's good to communicate with him. He's a ninja in lockdown, usually going off as a deadly, untouchable recon.

Zainj - Recruitment Manager :
Zain has been a vital part of First Blood; bringing the members and the guild itself back to life, and supporting guild members acquire full 5* when they need it. He is one of our best players and one of our... (let's say trash talkers) :D

== Recruitment ==
To get into the guild, you must contact one of our officers or guild masters and ask to be tested.
If you can't find them online, just send you mail and we'll respond to test you whenever we can.
'''For swordies,'''
the requirement to make it in as a recruit is to get 15k damage. Each capture will be counted as 500 dmg,
as we are looking for players who know how to play well as a team, not those just going and killing.
'''For bombers,'''
we'll test you on equipment and playing style - we'll tell you details when you apply. (Looking for status bomber - VT/SS)
'''For gunners,'''
we'll test you depending on your style. If you're the kind to lure opponents away from
capture points, we'll follow you and see how good your technique is. If you're the kind to kill, we'll
you on damage - you must get atleast an average of about 10k.

== Guild Rules ==
1. Be intelligent -- ask questions to gain understanding; better to ask and learn than to not ask and never know.
2. Be mature -- act in a respectful and civil manner, towards guild mates and towards others.
3. Look forward -- do not despair over a loss; instead, focus on analyzing it to better understand and improve your gameplay. Remember, always say "good game."
4. Lift others up -- encourage and motivate your guild mates -- do not assign blame for losses and liberally share credit for victories. Do not criticize, instead offer suggestions as to how to improve.
5. Communicate -- If you have an idea for a strategy, say it. Don't assume others know something if you have never told them. Make sure everyone is on the same page before attempting a strategy. Be creative in strategizing and disciplined in execution.
6. Be friendly -- Be a nice person. Be helpful. Offer advice and support to your fellow guildmates. Help each other out.
7. Have fun -- Enjoy yourself. If you're playing a game, you should be having fun. This is not a job, this is a game. This is not saying that you should goof off while everyone else is focused on winning the battle; rather, it is to say that you should be having fun being focused on winning the battle.
Depending on how well your use your 1st swing technique, we will also make exceptions for those who currently have 4* gear but a trial game in lockdown tested our GMs or officers will still be necessary.
Simple. No spamming in guild chat, whether it's to sell, buy, TROLL, etc. An officer or guild master will tell you
to stop, and if you refuse, you will be either demoted or kicked.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
== Lockdown Rules ==
No, we're not going to kick you for having a bad game XD.
1. OBEY ORDERS -- Be attentive to your chat box, because as soon as the game starts, an officer or GM leading the team will be shouting out orders, and as a guild member it is your duty to obey them. If you're told to go to say "point 2," do not stop on the way to fight - go straight to your destination and defend it.
2. CAPTURE -- Here in First Blood, we have little tolerance for "damage hogs." Unless you've been ordered to base camp, you should be capturing along with your other guild members.
when you see an opponent on the way to your destination, just try to dodge and avoid them, a guild member who's been assigned to another capture point will take care of them.
3. TAKE NOTES -- Know that we're not the strongest guild around, but we learn from our mistakes. When beaten by a guild, take into account what techniques your opponents use and work up a way to counter it. For example : If your opponent has shock resistance against your VT, switch bombs. If your opponent uses combos, dodge their combo and hit once, repeat.
4. SPORTSMANSHIP -- No matter how mad you are, how annoyed you are, be it from opponent spam or your teammates not doing well, always say good game. Do not waste your time spitting insults at your opponent, but instead take the time to think "How can I help my team do better next
time?"
5. NO AUTO-AIM -- If you're using AA in random LD it's fine, but when you play guild lockdown, you represent First Blood. There will be no use of auto aim in guild lockdown. You will get 1 warning if you're seen using AA in GvG by an officer/GM, if you continue to ignore warnings we will have to demote or expel you depending on the situation :/
