    This tournament has been kind to me the last two years. Fingers crossed…

    I will do what I do every time and root for anyone NOT using Swagger. Seriously, no-one should use that move ever.

    In the off-chance there is a match in which neither side is using Swagger, I will be hoping for a British champ yet again. If it’s a match where both sides use Swagger, I won’t care.

    Let’s go GENGARBOI Dass my BOIII

  12. Dreykopff says:

    Fun fact…for everyone except my fellow Germans at least. I noticed that I can’t possibly face any German player before the grand final — while they are knocking each other out in the other half-bracket es early as top 32.

    Looks like I have to bop all of those American, Australian, Portuguese, Japanese, British etc. chumps to give a bunch of people who think that nationalities matter something to either celebrate or despise. :3

    I was supposed to be playing in the NB:I, but I retired. But really, I just had some other obligations on the 12th making it impossible for me to play this time. I’ll see you guys next NB Circiut Season.

  14. Draka says:

    How long does it last?

  15. makiri says:

    We’re doing 6 rounds and each round should be about 45 minutes

  16. NoPoke says:

    missed the stream :(   Was nearly every set a 2-0 victory?

  17. Dreykopff says:

    Apparently results have been entered wrongly after a certain point. I know that my own match scores in the bracket aren’t 100% accurate, so most definitely there have been more than 2-1s than showed.
