Inertia

Inertia (formerly Project Inertia) was the third Hive community server and the successor to The Hoard. It peaked at 2.3k members. Similarly to The Hoard, it was created due to the old owner, Big Tiny1234 being inactive and unable to complete all the activities that an owner should accomplish. It was originally owned by Darth Marz79, but once he also went inactive, the ownership was passed to EGIRLSLAYER2. Similarly, EGIRLSLAYER2 also eventually became inactive following the Amore vs 3Hunned alting scandal, and ownership was passed to Big Tiny1234. Finally, xxbright got ownership once Imperial was created. For a short period, Inertia was rebranded to Skyron, and was going to focus only on events while the CVCs would be hosted by Imperial. This was short lived, as the server got raided.

### Community:

Inertia quickly became the largest Hive community server following the inactivity of Hoard and the dooming of the Mystic Clan lobby server due to the exposing of Swimfan72. Inertia was the last server to have a good relationship with the Hive staff and to focus more on the community aspect rather than only the competitive community. Some Inertia staff even became Hive staff in the future such as xxbright (twiliqhtt), JakesterYT, Vhyzu. Similar to The Hoard, most members in Inertia did not scrim, but still partook in the community, often voicing their opinion in the chat and trying to get staff. Inertia gained around a 1000 member boost when Cranexe advertised the server on his YouTube channel. This brought a large amount of new players into the community and introduced them to scrims. Inertia staff was also made up of a wide variety of players from different backgrounds, contrasting with Hoard which was almost solely made up of Valor members. Inertia had a clan role system, albeit less active than The Hoard, where members could represent their clan, without multiclanning.

### Tournaments:

Inertia hosted weekly tournaments for a time, similar to Hoard. The formats were Treasure Wars solos, Survival Games Solos, Survival Games duos, Skywars Solos. Although the tournaments were weekly and had the same format, the rules were slightly changed to give more points for kills. No championship tournament was ever held, however a mega Treasure Wars solos tournament was held in 1 day. This tournament is the biggest Treasure Wars solos tournament to date, and every active and good player participated. The winner of this tournament ended up being EpicArcher2759.

### Clan vs Clan:

Inertia didn't host a CVC for a few months, but eventually did so in their second season of events. A second season of cvc was hosted a few months later in the third season of events. These two seasons pioneered many of the modern strategies that are used in scrims and marked the last time a big advance was made in strategies. In addition, the second season was the first to enforce the requirement of using DCPrevent.

#### - Inertia Season 1

Inertia Season 1 lasted from October 31-January 29 (2020-2021). It had only a double elimination bracket with 23\* teams participating. The winner ended up being Valor B, beating Chiggas C in the final, which was likely the worst, yet goofiest final of any CVC. This CVC was criticized heavily for lasting way too long, teams dropping out, bad rules, and attempted owner bias.

#### - Inertia Season 2

Inertia Season 2 lasted from March 6-April 24 (2021). It had a group stage of 4 groups of 4 and a single elimination bracket. Big Tiny1234 was given ownership of Inertia in order to run the cvc. This was the first modern formatted cvc and possibly the first modern cvc in general. The winner ended up being Avidity B, upsetting favorites and former underdogs Dawn V in the finals. This cvc was the first to enforce DCPrevent, following the recoist cheating scandal. Overall, this was one of the best cvcs to happen, possibly the best in general.

### Events:

Inertia, similar to The Hoard, hosted a variety of events including karoke night, hub hide and seek, etc. These were hosted by the staff such as xxbright, c zoeyy, Sekuzi (Usvfoofadaunq), Haezee. The Inertia co-owner, xxbright, hosted a lots of these, propelling the idea forward, getting people involved, and overall growing the non competitive events. The biggest Treasure Wars solos tournament was also hosted, with EpicArcher2759 winning it.

### Corruption:

Sometime after the formation of Inertia, discord "gangmembers" such as Budhism Yeet and FireXI started to invade the server. They threatened the staff and members trying to infiltrate the ranks. During this time, the Hive staff members present in the server (such as Splodg3r) decided to leave. Budhism Yeet started a friendship with EGIRLSLAYER2 (the owner at the time) and other Valor members. Budhism convinced him to alt for Amore, with his fellow Valor A member, papism. Eventually, they were exposed by Iv Fuhnny vI (Fuhnnyy). Budhism also started a one sided friendship with Co-Owner xxbright which resulted in the Budhism-Bright video. Budhism was given staff permissions for a short period of time. During this time, he implanted a webhook into the server. Budhism eventually used the webhook to raid the server once it became inactive.

### Legacy:

Once again, following the dramatic conclusion of Inertia Season 2, the server started dying and Big Tiny1234 once again started to be inactive. The active scrimmers at the time were itching for a cvc to be hosted, and Imperial was created by Avidity B member Bugqh (Combotages). For a short period, Inertia was rebranded to Skyron, and was going to focus only on events while the CVCs would be hosted by Imperial. This was short lived, as the server got raided. Inertia marked the last time Hive staff members were involved in any aspects of the scrim community. It was the last server to actively host tournaments and events. The end of Inertia marked the end of the community being more focused on the community itself, rather than the cvc happening. The Inertia server is no where to be found as a result of the raid.
