Ladies, gentlemen, and otherwise, we stand in the shadow of greatness.

In the red corner, the bracket fourth seed Andarel, leading with Kehrolyn Ross! Malandrax waits at the sidelines.

And in the blue corner, the bracket first seed OmegaGoo, leading with Karin Brandtford! Malandrax waits at the sidelines.




Only one of these contenders has a chance to reach heaven through violence. Who wil ascend?

Kill the gods and topple their thrones!

I really, really want Kehrolyn to get spread across the internet in a thin layer. Can you make that happen?

Unlikely. The Karin vs. Kehrolyn matchup can be defined by the following interaction:

Karin plays Coordinated.
Kehrolyn says, "Ooooo! A puppy!"
Kehrolyn attempts to pet puppy.
Jager bites Kehrolyn.
Jager whimpers.

...Okay, I get that this is good natured and all, Tricky, but please stop this for the duration of the match. I don't wanna have to disqualify you both for coaching/collusion.

Granted, I can't actually enforce poo poo and we're basically on the honor system. But come on guys, that's a sportsmanship issue.
