All tournament info can be found in the following post: ‘AUSIA Arena: Winter Edition’: Announcement & Qualifier Round Information
With the AUSIA Arena being the first AUSIA Tournament in two years, the predictions vary. Whose AUSIA division will surprise the community? What outcomes did the community predict for the upcoming qualifiers?
Water Vikings vs. Red Ravagers
The tournament kick-off is planned for Saturday, January 22nd, as the Water Vikings face the Red Ravagers. The Water Vikings have recently shown a constant presence in the weekly Top Tens and even earned the 6th spot in the 2021 Top Ten Listings. Although the Red Ravagers rejoined the Top Ten only recently, could they still surprise the Vikings and the community? Let’s see what the community predicts.

The latest Top Tens show both armies fighting for the 9th spot, where the Secret Service holds a slight size advantage.

The last battle of the qualifiers will take place on Friday, January 28th, where the newly opened Mercenaries will duel the Silver Empire. The Mercenaries show promise with their recent opening, but can they tame the war-experienced Silver Empire? After all, the Silvers bravely spent the latter half of 2021 battling the Help Force, Red Ravagers, and even the Templars. Who does the community predict to take the win?
