There were more upsets yesterday as the once “lower tiered” teams shake the foundations of the tournament in a revolution that could place them as powerhouses. SunnyNeo brings you the latest report from Day 2 (May 27th) of the daily match reports…

The first sweep of the day was from Team Brightvale in their match against Kiko Lake yesterday. Both of these teams are looking promising as top contenders but with a clean-sweep under their belts, the Brightvalians seem to be looking like a main powerhouse for this season. Team Kiko Lake have not lost hope though as they have plenty of energy left for their next match.

Team Kreludor also managed a clean-sweep against Team Krawk Island who’s ship seems to be listing hazardously on the shore of their statistics. Team Captain Derlyn Fonnet of Kreludor says that it’s time other teams understood their real skills. No more taunting, this is business! The pirates are frustrated about this result and are determined to prove that they will not fall into the lower brackets as other champions have done so in the past.

Team Tyrannia are still masters of the support games, claiming wins in Slushie Slinger, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown. Unlike the day before yesterday, Team Mystery Island secured a victory in Yooyuball. Mystery Island’s Team Captain, Volgoth, states that the great Mumbo Pango is still sleeping and cannot enchant them with good prospects at the moment.

The Rooligans are happily progressing at an ample pace, taking wins in Yooyuball and Make Some Noise. Their opponents, Team Terror Mountain, gaining respectable victories in Slushie Slinger and Shootout Showdown. Team Roo Island’s Defender Gordo Gunnels says that he is proud of his squad’s determination to do well after falling to Ninth Place last year. “It will take more than a set-back like last year’s results to hold us Rooligans back!” He cheered as he left to congratulate the mountaineers for a good game.

Team Meridell withheld their honour by achieving wins in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown against the Faerieland Fighters yesterday. But living up to their new expectations, Team Faerieland are now seemingly digging their heels in the ground to gain a reputation as Slushie Slinger powerhouses (somewhat like Tyrannia managed to achieve). Although this time the Faerielanders Drew with the knights, Queen Fyora herself is rumoured to be planning a visit to the stadium in future matches to lend her team support.

Similar to the Faerieland versus Meridell match-up, Team Lost Desert gained wins in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown against Team Maraqua, who only managed a Draw in Slushie Slinger. Dorina Hals from Maraqua says that her Team Captain is unhappy with the result but they will work harder the next time the two teams clash head-to-head. Derby Azar from Team Lost Desert says that they are still eyeing up the Altador Cup to take home.

Another mirror of the Faerieland versus Meridell or Lost Desert versus Maraqua matches yesterday was the match between Team Darigan Citadel and Team Moltara. Darigan Citadel faced-off Moltara taking wins in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown, drawing in Slushie Slinger. Roxton A. Colchester III, one of Moltara’s first discoverers, has not been located to comment on the team’s rusty gears as new players to the tournament. Team Moltara continue to press on regardless and aim to gain a better footing in future games.

Team Altador managed to tie with the Virtupets team in Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise but are hoping to beat the next team that crosses their path. Team Virtupets continue to make their team proud by winning Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown. Despite this King Altador could be seen beaming with pride yesterday as his squad are improving significantly.

And finally we come to the Team Shenkuu versus Team Haunted Woods match that almost ended in a four-way tie! The Haunted Woods supporters scraped a win in Make Some Noise, tipping them into the overall victory status for that match-up. Shenkuu insist that a Draw is not a loss and they will not fail their supporters this season. Zo Junior from Haunted Woods boasts that it was his funky victory dances after scoring a goal that encouraged his team supporters to cheer louder that day.

The underdogs continue to make a firm statement that they are powerhouses. Keep up-to-date with our Altador Cup Coverage to find out what happens next!
