Technically there are a few hours left in this seasons trophy but the top standings look nailed down and box isn’t firing anyway. Grats to Malmir on a dominating performance and to grue who put in a valiant effort trying to chase him down. Those points (plus that minor win each) pull them both level with asteflix into joint first. A few people opined at the start of the year that there were only a handful of players who could realistically win POTY, but at the one-third mark this is still looking like a tight race with many possible winners.
However, spinball (most consistent major performance so far this year) is waiting to play the UI final. Winning that will move him up to 16 points and start to stretch out the field. As spinball has vamps (2/2 major wins so far in 2024) and his opponent will have notvamps the smart money is likely on him converting.
The second minor of the year kicks off tomorrow night (1620 TV cap). Those of you hoping to polish off a minor team today may be a little frustrated with box not firing, but with a new trophy season starting at midnight it’ll be pumping again soon enough with plenty of time to optimise your team around the minor cap.
