- Tikhaos beat Ultimate_Lotad convincingly in Match 5 of their Winner’s Top 8 match with only a bee’s dick of health with Waldstein. Unfortunately Ultimate_Lotad was unable to finish Wald off and paid for it dearly.
- Match 5 of Ultimate_Load vs Pheonix351 was complete destruction. The happy birthday by Lotad put Pheonix in such a position that he had no choice but to block, but he died when he ate a throw.
- First match of cur-is vs Tikhaos was amazing, the former making an amazing Yukiko comeback SOLO, not even popping Resonance Blaze until after Tikhaos’ first character was dead. The rest of the match was a testament to cur-is prowess with Yukiko and his understanding of Aegis; this match was masterful.
- Ultimate_Lotad made masterful work at the end of Match 5 in Loser’s semi-finals. With nothing but Weiss left and a full health team of Megakin’s in front of him, Ultimate_Lotad realized that Crash Assault was the dirtiest of answer. After catching Megakin with no less than 4 Crash Assaults, he painted a road to victory that was not otherwise illuminated; highway robbery and the perfect way to mount a comeback.
- Grand Finals was amazing fast, cur-is going absolutely crazy with Yukiko and Aegis; masterful spacing, anticipation, punishing, and dominating neutral. This was a definite repeat of Winner’s Finals with previous RNTS champion Tikhaos having no clear answer with his signature team of Waldstein/Tager. Definitely excited to see more Yukiko play if cur-is plans to join future tournaments, amazing display of skill with an underused character.
