I've been playing Crawl on CBR2 since August 2023. In late November and early December 2023, I played on CKO due to issues with CBR2. I'm now playing 0.32 trunk. Here's my stats page. (technically not the official one, but it has more info than what CAO has)

I created a page documenting a Formicid Venom Mage of Ru in 0.30 here.

Tournaments

This section will document my performance in DCSS tournaments. For each tournament, info will be in the following bullet points:

  • Tournament Page: This contains a link to the tournament page.
  • Tournament Profile: The tournament page has a profile for each player, so I'll link to mine here.
  • Last Updated: This only applies to a tournament in progress. The idea is that info on this page is accurate at the time of last update, but it may be outdated by now. The time is in CET because that's how the wiki is configured to interpret ~~~~~.
  • Score (Rank): My score for the tournament with overall rank in parentheses. Unlike the tournament page, ties are not compressed here.
  • Characters: My characters in each tournament will be documented as sub-bullets. Early deaths will be grouped into a single sub-bullet, while characters that make actual progress will get a morgue.
  • Banners: Each banner that I achieve will get a sub-bullet. Only the highest tier I reach will be included for each banner.

0.31 (January 19, 2024 - February 4, 2024)

This was my first tournament, so I came into it just trying to get a win. I soon realized that with categories and banners, there's a lot more to a tournament than wins. I did manage to get a win, but it was with a build poorly suited for tournament points (caster = more real time taken, low spellpower = more turns taken, Foxfire + Fulminant Prism = more kills). Now that I've done a tournament, I think the key to improvement is to do better in the early game so I'd get more uniques, piety points, and banners. I'd also like to get a melee win, or at least a win with a more points-friendly build. Less than 20% of tournament players get a win, so just getting a win is pretty good by itself, but more deep runs would help.

  • Tournament Page: [1]
  • Tournament Profile: [2]
  • Score (Rank): 25,247 (340th out of 2,731)
  • Characters:
    • Early Deaths: 2 early MiFi deaths (XL 7 and 9, latter was with Okawaru); 1 early MfGl death (XL 8 with Elyvilon); 4 early TeDe deaths (highest XL 3); 1 early DrAE death (XL 4 with Fedhas); 3 early DjHu deaths (highest XL 9); 1 early DsMo death (XL 5); 1 early KoHs death (XL 4); 3 early HuDe deaths (highest XL 9 with Ru); 1 early AtCj death (XL 5 with Nemelex); 1 early DEMo death (XL 5 with TSO); 1 early SpHu death (XL 5); 1 early DrEE death (XL 3)
    • MiFi^Vehumet: This was the first character to get any banners. Vehumet was joined from a faded altar.
    • MiFi^Hepliaklqana: This was the first character to get any runes. The death was in Elf:3 against some high-tier elves.
    • MfGl^Makhleb: This was the first character to reach the Lair after worshipping a faded altar. Due to lack of a weapon upgrade, this character had to constantly use consumables and eventually got overwhelmed in Lair:1.
    • GrFE^Vehumet (3 rune win): This was my first win of the tournament.
    • DsMo^Trog: This was my 5th combo to reach XL 9. This character died in Spider after a malevolent alarm.
    • OnGl^Makhleb: This character got me some category progress, including a second gem (Elf), but died in Zot:5.
    • FoMo^Ignis: This character's only scoring came from Crazy Yiuf and a gauntlet, but clearing Lair and reaching XL 15 is too much progress to leave in the early deaths bullet. Unfortunately, I wasted some really good items by dying to Azrael in Orc:2. Ignis came from a faded altar, and I had already used all piety and the rising flames ability, so I only kept it for tournament purposes.
  • Banners:
    • Explorer (Ashenzari): Tier 2 - collect 5 different runes during the tournament
    • Slow and Steady (Cheibriados): Tier 1 - two consecutive games to reach XL 9
    • Politician (Dithmenos): Tier 1 - steal a combo high score of 1,000+ points
    • Nature's Ally (Fedhas): Tier 1 - enter Crypt
    • Avarice (Gozag): Tier 2 - find the silver rune (Vaults)
    • Inheritor (Hepliaklqana): Tier 1 - reach Lair after worshipping a faded altar
    • Pious (Ignis): Tier 1 - champion a god
    • Gelatinous Body (Jiyva): Tier 1 - reach XL 9 with 5 different species and 5 different backgrounds
    • Lord of Darkness (Kiku): Tier 1 - reach Orc:2 before entering Lair
    • Nemelex' Choice (Nemelex): Tier 1 - reach XL 9 with a Nemelex' Choice combo
    • Conqueror (Okawaru): Tier 1 - score 1,000,000+ points in a single game
    • Lorekeeper (Sif Muna): Tier 2 - win without a skill at 20+ (done by my GrFE^Vehumet)
    • Vow of Courage (The Shining One): Tier 1 - kill Sigmund before entering Depths
    • Graceful (Uskayaw): Tier 1 - collect a gem (this was the one in Lair on my MiFi^Hep)
    • Ruthless Efficiency (Vehumet): Tier 2 - get a rune before XL 17 (done by my OnGl^Makhleb)
    • Sifu (Wu Jian): Tier 1 - reach Temple in under 3,000 turns
    • Harvest (Yredelemnul): Tier 1 - kill 27 different uniques during the tournament
