EPTPlayer of the week:
CuriousNo surprises here--one ace match, one victor, eight points. Also, Curious is the 3rd most-owned player, meaning many people reaped the benefits. While he did play with his food a bit in the ace match, taking quite a while to kill
Seed despite his early lead, his game vs HerO showed good control against a potentially dangerous all-in. And again, eight points is impossible to argue with.Anti-player of the week:
Journey200 people anti'd Journey, making him the 4th-most popular choice. On top of that, 271 people bought
Trap looking for easy money and (I assume) a favorable week 2 trade (myself included). This game was quite convincing: Journey swatted down Trap's DT harassment while dealing significant damage of his own.Runner-up:
BrAvOI was tempted to put BravO first, mostly because he took out Jin Air ace
Maru in a nice mech vs. mech game on Cactus Valley. However, fewer people have him on anti, and fewer people have Maru on their main. That's little consolation to those who do, however -- at 9 points, you pretty much need Maru to win every week. BravO showed a chink in his armor. A small chink, and a very situational one at that, but it does exist.Week 2 trade bait:

Runner-up:
MaruYou know you want to trade Curious for Maru. Will you give in to the temptation?
Best team: Shairak

Shairak has a solid team with bets that paid off in DeParture and Panic/Blaze. In fact, it's only 4 points lower than the best possible team(s) (e.g. Curious, BravO, Dear, DRG, Sorry, Trust, Samsung, plus Seed and any two 0-point-earners on anti, though there are other combinations that give 31 points). Well done!
Worst team: TechFour

Oh man, the feels. This one hurts because the main team looks ok on paper: a good mix of the regulars from SBY, MVP, and PRM, with JAGW as the money-making team. This team should be in the middle of the pack, not dead last. Unfortunately, TechFour (presumably) went to bed before
Creator's exit from Prime was announced. Also unfortunately, Jin Air tanked vs. Samsung, and even though Sbenu and MVP went to the ace match, none of the players on TechFour's team won (admittedly some were not playing). The anti is the terrible icing on this terrible cake. Better luck next week!
