Voting will be open for approx 24 hrs and then the winner will be announced.

Achilles was gonna be hard to beat, for me, from the get go and it rang true. I have to give him my nod. I love just about every match-up and that final has me drooling.

Kpro is a tough tough second, though.

Kpro has edged in front, let's have some more votes please.

Gotta go with Kpro here, great cards everyone! It was a blast, hopefully we can do another soon.

It's a forum based game. In order to play, you have to pretty much be a regular on the forums. Various members host these on random occasions. This one has been completed already.

Ah, fair enough. I'm a long time member but a fairly new poster. Hopefully I'll catch the next one.
