Welcome to the Altador Cup Finals that happen today. Yesterday, Day 38 (July 2nd), was the second day of Round 1 of the Semi-Finals and after a delay, we finally have results to go by for our report. Onto the report...

Championship Bracket (1st-4th Place Face-off)
Team Kreludor vs. Team Roo Island: Ooh this was a tough call. Team Kreludor managed to inch ahead of the Rooligans with a win in Make Some Noise but this was almost too close to announce. Yooyuball and Slushie Slinger ended up with a tie and Shootout Showdown went to Roo Island. So, by the skin of their teeth, Team Kreludor have progressed to battle for 1st Place!


Semi-Finals Championship Bracket - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Kreludor over Team Roo Island!


Team Darigan Citadel vs. Team Lost Desert: This match wasn't as close as the Kreludor versus Roo Island match, as the desert squad had proven to be stronger all-around. With a Draw in Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown, Darigan Citadel were showing promise... but with the Sakhmetian stars outshining them in Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise, it was the Lost Desert who advance to play for 1st Place.


Semi-Finals Championship Bracket - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Lost Desert over Team Darigan Citadel!



Finals Bracket 2 (5th-8th Place Face-off)
Team Meridell vs. Team Maraqua: A reflection of yesterdays results, as Team Maraqua won Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise. Team Meridell won Shootout Showdown but have to accept that they won't be playing for 5th Place this year.


Semi-Finals Bracket 2 - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Maraqua over Team Meridell!


Team Virtupets vs. Team Krawk Island: Advancing to play for 5th Place, Team Virtupets stormed Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown against the pirates to claim the overall victory. With wins in Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise, Krawk Island will just have to hope that their Yooyuball is also upto scratch when they face Meridell for 7th Place.


Semi-Finals Bracket 2 - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Virtupets over Team Krawk Island!



Finals Bracket 3 (9th-12th Place Face-off)
Team Haunted Woods vs. Team Terror Mountain: Nothing scares Terror Mountain it seems (aptly named considering they were facing the spookiest squad in the tournament!) as they won Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown, settling for a tie in Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise. The mountaineers celebrated as they advanced to play for 9th Place.


Semi-Finals Bracket 3 - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Terror Mountain over Team Haunted Woods!


Team Shenkuu vs. Team Tyrannia: Team Tyrannia caused a second upset for Shenkuu as they repeated yesterday's results: A win in Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger and Shootout Showdown with the ninjas taking Make Some Noise. Tyrannia now get to face-off Terror Mountain for 9th Place whereas the once "favourites to win" fight for 11th Place against Team Haunted Woods in the Finals.


Semi-Finals Bracket 3 - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Tyrannia over Team Shenkuu!



Finals Bracket 4 (13th-16th Place Face-off)
Team Brightvale vs. Team Faerieland: Poor Faerieland didn't stand a chance. The scholars were geared up and ready to go (although they did have to fight for a few goals) and managed a clean-sweep against Faerieland. Team Brightvale now advance to play for 13th Place and Faerieland will no doubt be reaching out for 15th Place!


Semi-Finals Bracket 4 - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Brightvale over Team Faerieland!


Team Kiko Lake vs. Team Mystery Island: Once again, another repeat of yesterday's results (deja-vu) as Mystery Island won Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown against Kiko Lake, and Kiko Lake gained a win in Slushie Slinger. The Islanders now get to play for 13th Place and Kiko Lake face Faerieland for 15th.


Semi-Finals Bracket 4 - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Mystery Island over Team Kiko Lake!



Consolation Bracket (17th-18th Place Face-off)

Team Altador vs. Team Moltara: In the Consolation Bracket, Team Altador and Team Moltara will be battling it out for 17th Place over four days (two of which have gone by).  Altador still have the upper-hand over Moltara as they won Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown, and held a Draw in Slushie Slinger. Moltara maintained their dignity by taking a victory in Make Some Noise. If Moltara step up their game over the next two days, they could be looking at 17th Place!


Semi-Finals Consolation Bracket - Round 1, Day 2 goes to Team Altador over Team Moltara!



Good luck to everyone today! One day left until the Altador Cup is awarded... Stay up-to-date with our Altador Cup Coverage to see what else happens in this exciting event!

This report has been brought to you by SunnyNeo's Altador Cup Customisation Spotlight. The SunnyNeo staff have Neopets and we want to support our teams too by having a customisation face-off!

Note: This report has been based off the match schedule results TNT published for July 2nd. There has been some confusion on the way they have decided to publish the results this year in comparison to past seasons, and we are aware that the overall standings should be based off a two-day face-off between the teams in the Semi-Finals and Finals stage. Either way, one team will win or lose in their respective brackets so do your best and good luck!
