Preview: The Fall Brawl - September 30, 2023

 

This is the latest we've ever played the Fall Brawl in the month of September, but it's worth the wait!  That's because we're playing in the Rancor Dungeon, and that means we have 13 Duelers at the table!  Once the first character dies, the Rancor emerges, and we're all in big, BIG trouble.  It takes 30 points of damage to eliminate that beast.  Will the Duelers work together to defeat it...or attack each other as it randomly eats minor characters?!?  We'll learn soon enough...

MEET THE DUELERS:

Atticus - Newer Dueler Atticus has played in three straight games, and so far he's finished in 9th place each time.  He'd love to break the streak in the Dungeon.

Bella - Bella is doing us a solid and stepping in for the Fall Brawl.  Her last match, Duel of the Fates in April, saw her finish in second place with Cad Bane!

Curtis - he's coming off a nifty third place finish in Doubleheader #2 last month, where he made that cruel "ON PROGRAM!" joke that still has us jittery.

Evan - Evan had a crazy Doubleheader last month, playing with Moff Gideon for the 683rd time and debuting Reva's new character too.  He finished fourth in both.

Grant H. - Cad Bane will indeed be one of the 12 characters tonight...can Grant pull him yet again!?!?  We hope so for his vocal impersonations alone...

Isaiah - the last time Isaiah sat at the table he took down first place with Supreme Leader Snoke at the CL Training Duel!  What will his encore be?

Jordann - Jordann made a huge first impression by finishing in third place in her first-ever Duel at CL Training.  This noob knows what she's doing!

Kevin - Kevin is also doing us a huge favor and taking up one of our chairs tonight.  He finished in second place back in January and would love to notch his first career victory.

Parker - There's no easy way to say it, but Parker has five straight bottom-two finishes.  He's looking for a change in fortune at the Fall Brawl.

Rico - It's been a year and a half since we've seen Rico at the Dueling table, though he did make a nice run at the single's tournament in July.

Riley B. - It was a tale of two Duels for Riley at the Doubleheader, where he finished second and last.  He's also one of only a few who has piloted the Rancor before.

Riley E. - The secret is all but out that Riley, despite her youth, is a Dueler to be reckoned with.  She's finished eight or better since winning last year's Doubleheader #2.

Rob - Rob has rebounded in a big way since his eleventh place finish at CL Training.  He finished third with the Mandalorian and first with Yoda at last month's Doubleheader.
