Cubbiehead is searching for an general championship and hopes to fend off a horde of groups wrapping up their 1400+ IP. It’s going to be shut! There can be one last RCL Replace subsequent week, most likely Wednesday because the last one of many 12 months is a doozie of stats, so keep tuned for that. As for this week, we’ll go over some nice weeks, examine in on the ‘Perts League end, and extra within the week that was week 25:
Every week we’ll peek in at our resident ‘perts to see who’s laying declare to greatest “professional” RCLer within the land. We’ll take notes, examine the standings and customarily stalk them. The heading can also be hyperlink, so be at liberty to comply with alongside as we go.
Completely zero adjustments within the ‘Perts standings heading into the ultimate week. Nonetheless, I did handle to tack on a league-best six factors this week. I’m nonetheless seven factors behind Gray, so, too little too late from my squad, nevertheless it’s good to complete respectably.
