MEET THE DUELERS:
Our Thanksdueling! tradition for the preview post is to list what each Dueler is thankful for this year. Here we go...
Andrew - don't look now, but Andrew is slowly approaching professional status! Duelers turn "pro" once they play six games. Thanksdueling! will be his fifth battle. He's thankful for...slow and steady improvement!
Bella - Bella made a name for herself last month when, in her very first Duel, she pulled the trigger with the Bowcaster at point blank range! She's stepping up again to help us get to 12, so we're adding her to the email for now on! Bella is thankful for...Wookie minor characters!
Corona - this marks Corona's first game since the August Doubleheader, where he had a couple of slightly disappointing eighth place finishes. He's hoping for a Thanksdueling! rebound. Corona is thankful for...chicken nugget key chains.
Grant H. - scheduling conflicts have prevented Grant from joining us this fall as much as he usually plays, so we're glad he's back at the table for the second month in a row. His victory at April's Duel of the Fates has already guaranteed him a spot in the December Championship. Grant is thankful for...Cad Bane.
Kat - it's hard to believe, but this is Kat's first game since her awesome third place finish at CL Training. Don't expect this veteran Dueler to be rusty! She too has a spot in the Championship already. Kat is thankful for...that super sweet light saber she got at Disney World this year.
Michael - Michael is flying Han solo this Duel, as his real-life alliance partner Julia can't make it. He'll be sure to represent the family well, hoping for a finish like his second place at Doubleheader #1 in August. Michael is thankful for...once again getting to play a game from his youth!
Parker We. - well this might sound insane, but we have two Parker "W's" in the league now that rookie Parker We. is making his Dueling debut at Thanksdueling! We're pumped to have him join this crazy cabal. Parker We. is thankful for...playing his first Duel!
Parker Wi. - things didn't go as expected for Parker Wi. last month when his Cad Bane unloaded on Fennec Shand for the grand total of zero points of damage. It cost him a last place finish to rocket-boot. Parker can only go up at Thanksdueling! He's thankful for...optimism!
Penny - no, your eyes don't deceive you. Rob's daughter Penny is coming back for a second helping of Dueling. He's just as surprised as you are! It will cost Rob a trip to a few local stores where Penny is excited to spend some newly acquired cash. Penny is thankful for...bartering!
Riley B. - while Thanksdueling! will "technically" be Riley's third career Duel, don't forget his standout performance as the menacing Rancor back in September! Nobody has dove into Dueling fandom as deep as Riley this year. He's thankful for...great deals on eBay!
Riley E. - the tiny titan of terror came close to victory last month, landing in third place at Fight Night. She'd love to add a second trophy to her shelf before the Championship too. Riley is thankful for...completing all of her school assignments on time. Ahem.
Rob - in what could only be described as gross, Rob tied his own record from 2015 when he registered his fifth win of the calendar year at last month's Fight Night. That also brought his trophy total to six, which is also a record. Rob is thankful for...adequate shelf space.
PLUSH POE PREDICTS THE WINNER:
Poe, it's only fair to mention your pick from last month finished in second, nearly giving you your second correct guess on the year. I'm almost impressed. Almost. So...show us something with this pick!
