Hi all, thanks for your participation.
Won the Self team. Gmuli is right. But no idea why. I agree with Tientai and Jlim what overall Other look better. Maybe the San He of wood was formed and feed the Self fire line. I don't know....
Score 2-1
And yes Jlim, the match was disputed during coronavirus without a public/fans at the stadium. That's why the empty self line (host)? Maybe.
I'm trying to use the rules that The Monk explained, lately.
San He(3 harmony combination, thrine, directional combination or whatever we want to call it) in the approach there is formed by lines 1 and 3, or lines 4 and 6, and it can be formed with the previous line.
The reason I avoid sports examples, lately, is because as I mention, I get the feeling that there are other important lines that we are missing. In this case this was much less of a problem, as almost all lines take part in it in some way.
Meaning in this case, we have 2 very big combinations forming, one of Metal(related to Self line) and one of Wood(related to Others line).
We could check that with other stuff in the situation, for example I would guess the Metal Self team may have Images related to Metal(maybe more experienced, or at least older etc. vs the Wood team where maybe it would be more younger, enthusiastic players etc).
Yet in this month and in this day, it makes sense the Metal will clearly win, why it wasn't as clear as I would expect, I assume again some of the other lines play a role that may not be so easy to follow.
But anyway - the short reasons - San Hes forms from almost all the lines in both Trigrams, then clash each other and in that clash Metal would win.
I do agree with other members, though, the more details we have the easier it is to see what happened, so if we can post some info about the question its easier to read and follow after.
