I'm hoping I can make it with a full fleet of insects next year. I've got Speeder as a complete ant, a new ant, Inch-Up made from a Fingertech kit in the POP stage, a fairy VS and beetleweight HS in the pipeline. Again, hopeful right now.

I started to look like I had a seizure when I saw Thor and Megabyte on the list
i'm only a finalist in BBEAMS 7 which was a meme tournament and I just stole a NAR AI bot and made it dense as ****.
and Not Bushido was a thing that happened, I beat the #1 seed despite being #bad seed.
