Summary

The prelims of our tournament are finally over, which can only mean one thing! It’s time to unveil the map for the 6 Semifinals games. It uses board position as a balancing mechanism rather than raw numbers, and it will hopefully force players into some intense conflict! See the map for yourself, here! Then, there are two more Tournament updates! The prelims over, but the overviews will carry over into next week as well. Music provided by Ben Prunty.
