The WoW minis event has come to a close, and Eric Walters is our winner! He went undefeated in all three rounds of today's sealed event to take home the top spot. When asked about his success, Eric mentioned that he initally thought his pool looked underwhelming, but the fact that his tiny little team required less victory points to score a win turned out to be quite a boon. Harvest Golem was a solid defensive wall, while Helwen the succubus could stall a much bigger ally for a precious four tics of time. Eric said these pieces allowed him to score a few quick location-based victory points, then take home the win with a few quick kills. Spotting this strategy seemed to pay off in a big way for Eric.

Congratulations to our winner Eric, and thank you to everyone for playing in today's Launch event!
