As the First Round Robin heads towards its climax, the hot Altadorian sun starts melting ice cream as a heatwave rushes over the stadium. So in the cool shade of our office, SunnyNeo brings you yesterday’s (June 3rd) match report of Day 9 of the tournament…
Let’s leap straight into the biggest clash of the titans when Team Kreludor went head-to-head with Team Lost Desert in one of the loudest matches so far in the First Round Robin. The Kreludans had an awkward time against King Coltzan’s squad as they clung on for dear life by executing a win in Shootout Showdown. Team Captain, Leera Heggle of the Lost Desert, summoned all of that Sakhmetian power to explode Kreludor’s statistics rocket by winning Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise. The Kreludorks are disappointed but are determined to get their own back in the Second Round!
Next we come to the match where Team Kiko Lake faced off Team Haunted Woods in what ended with a mixed result. The spooks managed to claim firm wins in Yooyuball and Make Some Noise but the referee had to declare a Draw in Slushie Slinger because both teams were too close to call. Kiko Lake held their ground by snagging a win in Shootout Showdown.
NEWS FLASH! “Brains” Mortigan from Team Haunted Woods was reportedly spotted this morning handing out pieces of a Spooky Treasure Map to unsuspecting supporters (of any team apparently). Captain Krell Vitor had to detain him before their match this morning to tell him off. Later, screams from their Right Defender (Wan Dirx) could be heard from the locker room along the lines of; “OH SWEET TOMBSTONES! YOU GAVE AWAY MY MAP?! NOOOO!”
Anyone who missed this match is probably regretting it as Team Meridell and Team Shenkuu locked in an epic battle to the finish. Both sides were ready for one another and the Meridellians had grown tired of invasions after their loss to Team Krawk Island the other day. Ilsa Ellits, Meridell’s Centre Defender, said; “The ninjas came immediately after the pirates. We had enough and used whatever force we could muster to fend them off.” And she was right to say so because Shenkuu and Meridell could not seem to best one another despite increasing the intensity of their retaliations! A Draw was finally declared in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown. The ninjas only just managed an overall win by dominating Slushie Slinger. Needless to say, both teams were on fire yesterday!
Team Virtupets (one of the leading contenders for the Cup) took on Darigan Citadel yesterday to prove to them that they still have the power to win Yooyuball. Shootout Showdown was a close call as Darigan’s Team Captain Layton Vickles was able to match Virtupets’ XL Striker 3.8 in an intense quick fire round. Unfortunately, not all the technology in the world could prevent Team Darigan taking an overall win by becoming victorious in Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise.
Not a bad day for the pirates as they navigated around Team Brightvale’s storm to claim wins in Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown. The Brightvalians did not let Team Krawk Island get hold of their slushies as they threw them faster than the bucanneers could see – a victory for Brightvale in Slushie Slinger. Both squads were feeling rowdy and ended up with a tie in Make Some Noise. Overall Team Krawk Island won the face-off.
Team Faerieland took on the happy-go-lucky Rooligans in what ended up as a win for Team Roo Island. Queen Fyora had made a glorious trip to Altador to grace her team with words of encouragement for the rest of the season. It was not enough to enable Faerieland to gain a win yesterday, but they valiantly managed to submit Team Roo Island to a tie in Slushie Slinger.
The Altadorian sun rose slowly above the sparkling landscapes of Terror Mountain yesterday… It was too cold for the sun to melt the ice though as Team Terror Mountain snowboarded a few flawless wins in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown. In an ironic twist, Team Altador seized a win in Slushie Slinger. The mountaineers have decided to “let it slide” as they were the overall winners anyway.
This almost could have been predicted in Neopians’ sleep as Team Tyrannia once again proved that they are the reigning champions of the support games! When they took on Team Maraqua yesterday, anything could have happened because the Maraquans are a tough team to tame, but the Tyrannians took wins in Slushie Slinger, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown with no questions asked. The Maraquans kept their pride by winning Yooyuball but it was not enough to win the match overall.
Finally we arrive at the Team Moltara versus Team Mystery Island match where Neopia’s core temperature could not stop Techo Mountain’s magma flooding their engineering. The Moltarans are really struggling in their debut year but were able to Draw in Slushie Slinger against the Islanders. Mystery Island saw no contest though and gratefully accepted wins in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown.
That sums up our report of Day 9 in the competition. Keep up-to-date with our Altador Cup Coverage as we watch the story unfold.
