As the runnerup from last time, I wish to have another go. I think I’ll change things up and take Troq for a spin

Alas, it seems that there are really few players for this one.
If you need one more, I’ll try to make it (I need to check if I can join IYL or I’m totally out of practice :rofl:)

The bracket is up! I randomized seeds for this one, since it’s a small tournament and MUs are fixed.

Ooops! Somehow the dates on this got all wonky. The first round is due Feb 7, not Mar 7.

I fixed it, but it’s possible that that’s going to send another round of the same match invites out. Feel free to ignore.

GGs man, your Degrey is still sharp. Thanks for the flexible scheduling and apologies for the salt early on about my hands :sweat_drops:

thanks for the matchs ! I drew so many jokers and you so few ^^’
I played a lot with consent of the governed, almost only on hit confirm after a normal
I didn’t leave degrey :knockdown: that much I preferred to max the damages
this was a really fun set, thanks ! :slight_smile:

MR vs @Nopethebard
I forfeited this one due to difficult scheduling.
Please put me in the lower bracket, so we can go on with next rounds

This is normally my favorite matchup in the game, but it feels a lot more oppressive if the DeGrey player only draws two queens and zero jokers the entire set (and especially so if Quince gets pretty much every possible joker). Still enjoyable, though!

Very very close games. Glad to have won after Ivan spanked my ass thoroughly in the Salary Cap tournament. GGs :sweat_smile:
