“I certainly did not play my best game, my opponent did. The critical dice did not favor me either. Missing 3 of 7 2+ dodges (with dodge), triple skulling with my Varg, and double skulling twice more in the game for turnovers is trouble.

I fouled the legend gutter 5 turns in a row, always breaking armor with the assists and failing to remove (though 1 was a ko he appo'd). I rolled 3,3 on 4 of the 5 fouls at some point, and while I was able to argue the first 3 the 4th did my fouler in.

I let my thrower keep a KO result since I had a Keg and figured 2 likely chances at a 3+ would bring them back, he didn't until turn 8 second half (both rolls 1s).

Also despite 38 armor checks to 26 armor checks I was only able to break armor 17 (45%) times to my opponents 16 (62%) times.

I was able to rush better than my opponent, but that was not enough to equalize the game.

Ultimately despite what the numbers say, my opponent was also a better player and played better today, which lead to the ultimate result, a 2-0 loss. Had I been thinking more clearly I would have likely asked to play with a day of rest from chaos cup, because I could feel my mental fatigue very early in the game. Regardless it was fun, and wish him the best.”
