SoulSurvivor Wins Fifth WiFi Live Tournament of the Nugget Bridge Circuit

Thirty players took their chances at this week’s Live Tournament and SoulSurvivor stood tall at the end. The tournament was best of 1, single-elimination using the current modified rules. SoulSurvivor earned 100 NBC points for his victory in what was his first tournament of the season.

 

SoulSurvivor took out fan favorite drcossack in the first round in what was surely a nail biter. FonicFrog was SoulSurvivor’s next roadblock but was also dispatched. SoulSurvivor faced his biggest challenge yet in the third round when he faced off against 2-time National Champion Cybertron but was able to eek out a victory in a major upset. It did not get any easier as SoulSurvivor’s next opponent was the previous Live Tournament Champion Zach, but again SoulSurvivor got the win. The finals came down to SoulSurvivor and The Knights of Wario Land. Both players played hard, but SoulSurvivor was able to win the game and the tournament.

In the Nugget Bridge Circuit ratings, DarkPenguin67 maintained his number top position as the number 1 seed thanks to his two live tournament victories, and Cybertron still sits in second. Zach’s semi-final performance vaulted him to third overall, while Babbytron and Nightblade7000 round out the top five. SoulSurvivor’s tournament win brought him into a tie for seventh with The Knights of Wario Land. Check out the rest of the ratings here.
