There were a few sweeps in yesterday's matches, Day 33 of the tournament (June 27th) and the heat is starting to get to this reporter *forgot to bring sun tan lotion*, so let's get on with the report, shall we...

Team Tyrannia really gave Team Mystery Island a rock concert to remember, as they swept the board with the Islanders! Forward Player, Bertie Shurtz, from Team Mystery Island stated that Tyrannia performed maginificently and that the Islanders will be investing in more codestones to enhance their training for the next tournament.

The next clean-sweep was probably an expected one as Team Moltara succumbed to the might of Dr. Sloth's Team Virtupets. The Moltarans might be feeling disheartened right now as we near the end of the tournament, but at least they will have learnt one or two things about their opponents for next time...

Team Lost Desert sucked the sun into the ground as Team Altador were the next victims of a clean-sweep. The desert squad were getting a bit sick of the intense heat so they decided to blot out Altador's sun for a day. Lost Desert are now proudly sitting at the top of the league table right now.

The results between Team Shenkuu and Team Roo Island came as a shock to most as the First Round Robin was an almost overall Draw (save for Shenkuu edging a win at the time). Both teams expected at least a Draw or a win in something but it was the Rooligans who left with celebrations as they came away with the sweep. Lilo, Captain of Team Roo Island, did say "That was a pleasant surprise! But Shenkuu did put up a good fight against us."

Team Kreludor did very well against the determined powerhouse Team Meridell by winning Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise. The knights struggled a bit but were able to parry for a Draw in Shootout Showdown.

Team Krawk Island raided Team Brightvale's archives to grab all the maps to success they could find. Succeed, they did, as they won Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown almost without an argument. The pirates encountered a minor set-back though as the scholars scribbled back a Draw in Slushie Slinger.

Team Kiko Lake gained revenge against Team Maraqua yesterday as they dominated Yooyuball for a win, and forced a Draw in Slushie Slinger to secure an overall victory! Shocked but not defeated, the Maraquans settled for wins in Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown.

Team Faerieland are apparently ghostbusters now! Fyora's fighters rallied brilliantly in Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise to gain a Draw in both of those games against Team Haunted Woods. Krell Vitor's spooky squad still managed an overall win by taking Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown. Congratulations to both teams!

In our final match, Team Darigan Citadel warned off the chill breeze from Team Terror Mountain by winning Yooyuball and Slushie Slinger. Make Some Noise was too close to call, so they were both awarded a Draw and Terror Mountain were just that little bit quicker than Darigan Citadel to gain the win in Shootout Showdown.
