S2J and Shroomed attended their first Abbey tavern event, ultimately ending up playing 13 games between the two over the course of Winners and Grand Finals, S2J coming out on top after a reset.
Darrell returned to Abbey for the first time since The Avenues 3, earning a solid top 7 placement.
Aerius won the Abbey Trio duel, with a 3-0 over Iron, placing 3rd and 4th respectively.
Some new faces from the Sacramento area including Transplant, Arnando, and Shiro entered alongside returning players NY and 20,000 Lions to make their mark on Abbey.
The Arcade High Score challenge debuted with Ms. Pac-Man to a solid reception from taverners with many players watching others try to get their scores up. NY from Sacramento won free entry to their next Abbey with a score of 42,170, which Iron narrowly failed to pass after a tragic fumble. Looking forward to seeing how Galaga performs next week.
