Grand Melee League, Round 8

Round 8 of the 2012 Grand Melee league was held on the second day of Winter Legends. Only five eligible players turned up for the Cube Draft, which was disappointing. The round went ahead as normal, with 14 players divided into two tables.

Table 1 saw Anthony H run out the winner with his indestructible white army. Megan B and Keith D each picked up a point on this table too. Anthony managed to get two achievements in one day, one for reaching 6 rounds attended, the second for attacking with 20 creatures to win the melee round!

Table 2 had three new players, but the win went to Courtney J, with Nigel B, Peter G and league newcomer Liam P each getting a point.

The next round will be a normal melee round, held at the September LXG meeting.

View the new standings here. Eddie C remains at the top of the rankings. Anthony H’s win sees him move to fourth. Adrian R drops out of the top 8, while Courtney J moves from equal 20th place to 10th!
