G’day Forts fans!

Congratulations to Amburulo and bl00dparasite who emerged from a field of 12 to place 1st and 2nd respectively in qualifying. For their efforts they each earn a spot in Tournament XXI where they will compete against opponents comprised entirely of past medalists from the 2021 ranked seasons. The finalized bracket is as follows:

EtaN

In 3rd and 4th place respectively, Teutonick and Malme will be our alternates should any of the seeds be unable to attend. Thank you to Bobereto for hosting.
