If you're still new to the league, the Championship match is a bit different than other 12-Way Duels. Typically the last game of the calendar year, the invitations and seat assignments go out to the top twelve ranked duelers. In other words, it's the most competitive duel of the year, and for the first time ever, all twelve duelers playing in the Championship are ranked professionals! Super Bowl, World Series...the 2015 Championship is our equivalent battle. And this will be the toughest fight in 12-Way Duels history!
HISTORY: Ryan won the 2014 Championship with Boba Fett of all characters! He used a tight three-way alliance with Rob/Maul and Kristen/Jango on the Kamino Platform to take home the inaugural plaque.
LINEUP: We'll do a little something different with this Preview - I'll review the dueler sitting at each chair and pick the character that would best suit them.
Chair #12 - Daniel. The 12th ranked professional, Daniel isn't afraid to do the bidding of others and is at his best when he is the loyal sidekick in an alliance. For that reason, his perfect character is JANGO FETT.
Chair #11 - Stephen. Before the CL Retreat Stephen had never even played Epic Duels before. He is a quick learner but can sometimes get in over his head in a battle. For that reason, his perfect character is HAN SOLO.
Chair #10 - Chris. Few Duelers have played in as many matches as Chris, though he is still looking for his first victory. He is a loyal, warrior monk who often charges into battle first. For that reason, his perfect character is LUKE SKYWALKER.
Chair #9 - JD. Another veteran of the Epic Duels scene, JD finally secured his first victory at the Birthday Surprise Duel. He is wise and decisive, and not afraid to move across the board. For that reason, his perfect character is MACE WINDU.
Chair #8 - Sakina. Few play Epic Duels with the intensity Sakina brings to a game. She is passionate and lethal, and doesn't lack confidence. For that reason, her perfect character is DARTH MAUL.
Chair #7 - Alex. He is the first Dueler to ever win twice, but hasn't secured a victory since 2014. He thrives on chaos, destruction, and game-shifting. For that reason, his perfect character is BOBA FETT.
Chair #6 - Curtis. Curtis has won twice in 2015, and is always up for a side game in the Penland cantina. He prefers leading ironclad alliances based on his knowledge of the cards and gets grumpy when folks don't follow his lead. For that reason, his perfect character is YODA.
Chair #5 - Nathan. Nathan started the school year as a mere Padawan, but is now a full-fledged Master after his Thanksdueling! victory. He's at his best when he can hang back and manipulate game changing actions. For that reason, his perfect character is DARTH VADER.
Chair #4 - Grant. Grant is one of three duelers with multiple victories in 2015. Previously known for a patient, methodical, and loyal approach, he has been experimenting with a more sinister style of play as of late. For that reason, his perfect character is ANAKIN SKYWALKER.
Chair #3 - Ian. Few duelers spark as much fear and dread from their competitors as Ian. He has shot to the top in the rankings, but is unsatisfied with his empty trophy case. For that reason, his perfect character is COUNT DOOKU.
Chair #2 - Rob. The crazy old wizard who introduced Duels to Waco won an obnoxious five times in 2015. His strong strategic approach can, at times, come at the expense of his ability to read the emotions of those around him. For that reason, his perfect character is OBI-WAN KENOBI.
Chair #1 - Ryan. For two years in a row Ryan enters the Championship in the first chair. His win at the Double Header was a perfect example of how he can orchestrate the social environment and bend others to his will. For that reason, his perfect character is EMPEROR PALPATINE.
JAR JAR AND OBI-WAN PREDICT THE WINNERS:
 |
| "Meesa so excited! I be predictin' boom-bad Emperor wins!" |
 |
| "That isn't the prediction you're looking for" |
|
| "Obi-Wan will win, he has the high ground" |
|
| "Move along..." |
Wait, what? What the heck just happened? Oh well - we'll see you Saturday night!!!
