“Versuch won the coin toss and chose to receive in the pouring rain. They had problems picking up the ball when a Skink let it slip out of his hands. Dragon's Deck flooded the Lizardmen backfield like the rain flooded the field. The Saurus could not free up their Skink teammates as they kept failing critical blocks. This allowed the High Elves to chain push a couple Lizardmen off the field keeping both teams relatively even in numbers. Elbereth picked up the ball and handed it off to Edge for the touchdown just as the first half ended.

DD received in the second half and the rain continued. It was an 8vs8 match but Versuch only had two Skinks to field. The High Elves tied up the Saurus players and let the Skinks try their luck. Versuch's little men could not pull off a turnover and DD strike quickly in three turns behind Talion's run.

Versuch received one more time but their ball carrier was left exposed. Elbereth sacked the Skink in the backfield causing a fumble. In what would turn out to be DD's Team Captain's last game as he was fatally wounded by a charging Saurus. The medical team was able to save him but Elbereth insisted on continuing to the end. Suzanne, the Saurus, wanted to notch a huge kill like this and went after the Black Prince once again. Elbereth was blindsided and killed as the High Elf fans mourned the passing of a great player. Nevertheless, his sacrifice was not in vain as Edge recovered the ball and scored another touchdown. Afterwards, the win was dedicated to their late Team Captain.
