Earth Rumble VII Skud Pai Sho Tournament

[Cannoli]

"Come, eat of my bread

And drink of the wine I have mixed.

Forsake foolishness and live,

And go in the way of understanding."


The word is out that the Earth Kingdom Rumble VII is OVER!!!!!! TheRealMomo and Cannoli ran a crazy match, a golden cap on this towering competition! TheRealMomo went nuts planting and had all 4 gates occupied at the end of turn 4. Once the gates burst open though Cannoli wasted no time in planting. TheRealMomo by turn 9 had two partially constructed rings, and planted her orchid to see them to completion. Cannoli's orchid followed behind and seized two of TheRealMomo's flowers at once! Cannoli was now free to put together a ring, forcing TheRealMomo to block with a knotweed. But no sooner did the knotweed hit the table but Cannoli tossed one right back at her! Well both players cleared the knotweeds and on turn 20 TheRealMomo sent her orchid off towards Cannoli's, but he did not take the bait! Those two flowers remained in the custody of Cannoli's orchid through the end of the match. Both players called more flowers to the table, but Cannoli managed to box one of TheRealMomo's planted flowers in at the gate! She used her last boat to free her flower, leaving each player with only a wheel and a shrinking number of flowers in reserve. Cannoli doubled up his ring pattern and on turn 27 managed to put together a winning harmony ring with the wheel he saved. Congratulations on a hard fought win Cannoli! Ladies and Gentlemen, your undefeated champion!

Thank you all for playing and watching the action over the last weeks. On behalf of Cannoli as well I would like to thank you all for the excitement and camaraderie, the struggle and the good times as we played and commiserated. We are looking forward to seeing more of you all in game, on Discord, at meetups and of course at the upcoming tournaments!
