We're one third of the way through Altador Cup VII because today is Day 8! I hope you all are on your way to All Star. That pretty gold shield is calling your name this year, right? Mine too. Check out our Altador Cup Ranks page to learn how to get there!

It seems the trees grew back today because Team Haunted Woods takes their fourth and fifths wins of the season! Virtupets talked about how they had some malfunctions with their Grundos taking over the world or something. Team Virtupets wouldn't release any more information; That Evil Dr. Sloth seems to have them in some kind of trance where they only say what he wants. Weird. They took a win in Yooyuball and a draw in Slushie Slinger with Haunted Woods taking two wins in Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown! Congrats on your first overall win, you haunted big trees.

Kreludor takes their second draw of the season, this time against Team Darigan Citadel. However they still managed three wins in Yooyuball, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown. That takes work and determination! Darigan Citadel was happy about their draw, especially against Team Kreludor.

Altador and Team Brightvale both came to play today, with Brightvale barely taking a lead against the sunny land of Altador with their two wins in Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown. Team Altador takes a draw in Slushie Slinger and a win in Make Some Noise. The Wheel of Knowledge really gives Brightvale their advantages sometimes!

Tyrannia takes an almost sweep against Team Moltara today! It seems that molten lava against heat doesn't really work very well as a fighting tactic. Team Tyrannia laughed at Moltara's decision to fight with lava when everything in Tyrannia is already scorched. Guess that's what happens when you forget you're playing with ancient Chombies. Tyrannia gets three wins in Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise! Moltara still made things inconvenient enough for Tyrannia to get a win in Shootout Showdown.

Team Kiko Lake takes the first sweep of day against Team Maraqua. It's those cute little buildings again, isn't it? It seems everyone seems to get distracted by them lately. Kiko Lake takes wins in all four categories; Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown. Congrats on the sweep! That really takes talent to win all four!

The cooking pot seems to be heating up in Mystery Island, giving everyone enough energy to take on Team Faerieland yesterday. Everyone on Team Mystery Island has cause for celebration, taking the second of four sweeps of the day! There must be something they're feeding these guys, because they've been a strong powerhouse ever since Altador Cup VII started. Wow!

The scary island of Krawks takes the third sweep of the day, absolutely dominating Team Roo Island. The Blumaroos have officially stopped hopping today. How depressing! I love watching those little 'roos bounce! Congrats to Team Krawk Island for their third sweep of this season. That's a lot! Maybe after all this is over we'll finally get a comment from the team of notorious, "No comment we're working too hard," statements we get every day of the tournament. Oh well, at least they get results from that! Who cares about fame, anyways? Sometimes avoiding us just gets our attention more.

Team Lost Desert decided to show us a new move, throwing pottery at their meditating competition, Shenkuu. Looks like someone finally shook things up and disturbed Team Shenkuu's peace! Never seen that much pottery thrown in my lifetime, have you? Always crazy things going on during Altador Cup season! Lost Desert takes two wins in Yooyuball and Slushie Slinger, drawing against Shenkuu in the last two competitions, Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown.

The last match of the day was Team Meridell vs. Team Terror Mountain. We end this Altador Cup report with the last of four sweeps, this one going to Meridell! They have so many castles and crowns on their heads it looks like Terror Mountain got intimidated and decided to sit this one out. Probably a smart choice. No one wants a fleet of Meridell citizens going after them, right? Right.

Want your pet to be snazzy and spirited? Remember that we have many Altador Cup VII graphics, including Altador Cup Pet Lookups! Start using one today. That's it for Day 8 of the Altador Cup, check back tomorrow for another update and fancy writing spiel about what happened!
