The first RPS Open tournaments were held on Union and Defiant last week, and the events were a big success, thanks to a healthy turn-out and some excellent play from all concerned.

Heroes and Villains faced off under the watchful eyes of DJ Zero to compete for a chance to pit their skills against RPS Grandmasters Rockjaw and Bridger in a knock-out tournament that tested their tactics, skill, nerve and luck.

Read on for full details…

Defiant

On Defiant, the eventual winner was Anath, who beat runner-up Technostone by a skillful 4 games to 1 in the final match. Unfortunately, Defiant’s RPS Grandmaster proved just a little too tricky for her in the exhibition match that followed, where Bridger won with 5 games to 3. Still, an outstanding effort, and our congratulations to Anath!

Union

Over on Union, the first RPS Open crown was snatched by Super Dragon. In a tense and exciting exhibition match overseen by the villainous Crater, he lost 3 games to the mighty Rockjaw before rallying and winning with 5 games to 3! Truly an astonishing victory, and a fantastic show from Union’s first RPS Open champion!
