Luckiest: Speedy. At least Iron Rain was fairly well built, but this thing?
Unluckiest: Brain Washer 6. Everything You Know Is Wrong! and Packie MW 2 made it to the Knockout Rounds, but this didn't? Voted this over the likes of Vortex and Starburst because it only got 5 points.
Best Skin: Starburst. Loved it.
Most Original: Tongue Twister. I just liked the weapon setup it used.
Biggest Upset: Skrzak, I guess. Perfect points in the Qualifier only to not even make it to the semifinals...
Most Entertaining: False Popup. Its Qualifier Round 1 match is enough.

Luckiest: Speedy - In a field of 45 bots, it really should not have gone anywhere, but it made it into the knockout rounds. Perhaps the quietest Razor Guy run ever.

Unluckiest: False Popup - Had an absolutely terrible draw, fighting Paramecium twice and the anti-popup Encroaching Darkness in the 3rd match. Should have done much better.

Best Skin: Gravity Storm - If nothing else, Joe's entries always caress our eyeballs with some of the nicest skins going. This one is no different.

Most Original: Cold Snap - Encroaching Darkness 3 also gets consideration here, but it's been done before, albeit not often.

Biggest Upset: False Popup - I really thought that NFX could make some noise with his slick castor-covered true popup, but it didn't even win a match. At least Skrzak finished in 5th.

Most Entertaining: Encroaching Darkness 3 - I loved seeing the lumbering giant creep over its opponents and cunningly stab them to death. It also provided my personal favourite moment of the rourney when it just straight-up vanished in its 3rd round qualifier against Synergy2.


As for my prize, I'll take the RoboLeague Bear Claw, please and thank you :D

Luckiest: Speedy - How DID that thing get to the finals?
Unluckiest: Cold Snap - I seriously thought that would get to at least the Knockout stage.
Best Skin: Gravity Storm - Just look at that epic text.
Most Original: Encroaching Darkness 3 - Fragile, tall, enormous...that's why it was the most original. =D
Biggest Upset: Speedy - Reaching the Knockout stage instead of Cold Snap.
Most Entertaining: Encroaching Darkness 3 - Same reasons as R0B0, really. Even though I had to fight it twice.

Luckiest: SnStorm- It faced a load of bots it was strong against including 4 VS's and 2 HS's which is lucky.

Unluckiest: Obvious Pseudonym- Just faced mostly HS's in the Qualifiers.

Best Skin: Forkie (Re-Stocked) - The skin looks basic but class.

Most Original: Impending Doom*- It was the only FS in the entire Tournament but I'm just pointing out.

Biggest Upset: Cold Snap- This was my Not-Mine favorite to win.

Most Entertaining: Casters From The West. Its A SFTW clone how can it not be entertaining.
