Select Season:
Rikoll takes it home
eb Nov 18, 2011

My apologies for the late news entry, but unfortunately the grand final coincided with me being abroad for a couple of days. I hope all of you (players and spectators) enjoyed the grand final and the tournament in general.

Me not being in my "home base" prevented me from actually seeing the grand final, but I'll make sure to grab the demos and enjoy them later this evening. Anyhow, the DuelMania team would like to congratulate Rikoll for playing what can only be described as a sovereign tournament!

On a sidenote: It's not a simple task to come back after a 5 year hiatus, as well as having way more RL commitments these days. So, we had to kinda ease back into the task of running a tournament again. In any case, the future plans go something like this:

  • More regular seasons (every March and September seems like a good start)
  • Better coverage (especially commentary and video streams)
  • Site improvements (the brackets really need an update)
One last thing: I sincerely hope that there will be more signups for the next season. Here are some old figures: The last DuelMania in 2006 had a whopping 268 signups and the last Ownage in 2010 had 176 signups. We hopefully can revive the scene to get back to these figures again!

Great job dopeskillz, you're the best admin we've had in long time :)
Let's work for more signups next season. And yes, congratulations to Rikoll for holding 1st place yet again!

Cheers, bps! I know that being the runner-up is always a gray area in-between happy and unfortunate. But I think you had an awesome run this tournament. Congrats for that and keep it up!
