The community team tournament CHEATING PRANKS (2x2) is over. 50 teams and 100 participants played almost 200 tournament sessions in a period of more than 5 weeks. And the winner demonstrated just an incredible result.
:firstplace:
:flashoflightning:Больные ублюдки (which can be translated as Sick bastards) have marched through the nine rounds of the tournament with nothing but victories! In some of the sessions the team had a bigger advantage, other were as close as 1 point of difference, but none of them were defeats. An amazing level of skill and luck that brought them well deserved first place in the tournament. Well played, DarkStyle and green_v!
Second place. This team has defeated :flashoflightning:Dreadnaughts, one of the early favorites of the tournament, in the very first round and had great results overall but has lost to :flashoflightning:Больные ублюдки (but so did everyone else) and to :flashoflightning:Полный облом (The Terrible Accident). Despite these two loses :flashoflightning:WildHorses managed to get the highest Buchholz rank among all teams, which brought this team to the second place. Congratulations, Sloth and Xamsteriks!
And third place goes to one of the organizers of the tournament – izmegul. He and DrBiker made to the third place as the team :flashoflightning:Полный облом (Russian name of the card "The Terrible Accident"). And this "accident" was pretty terrible for most of the opponents who have met the team during the tournament – only two were able to survive. Even :flashoflightning:Больные ублюдки just barely made it with the score of 19:18. But alas, two defeats was enough to put :flashoflightning:Полный облом on the third place and not higher. Great performance nonetheless!
