Amidst the controversies and exposes shaking the community, most armies remain determined to win March Madness. This weekend a total of seven armies will participate in its second round.
Last weekend in an unexpected turn of events brought us only two battles, as the Warlords of Kosmos pulled out of the tournament in the last moment, resulting in Penguins of Madagascar advancing to the next round. During the battle on Saturday, Dark Vikings conquered People’s Imperial Confederation, while Sunday saw a very close fight between the Army of Club Penguin and the Water Vikings, with the former one coming out victorious.
Thanks on the top in the seedings, Help Force, Ice Warriors, Rebel Penguin Federation, Templars and Special Weapons and Tactics received a free pass to the quarter-finals. Unfortunately though the Ice Warriors closed and dropped out of the tournament, leaving a void in the brackets and allowing Dark Vikings to advance directly to the semi-finals if they show up on the battlefield.
According to the March Madness announcement, the Elite Eight will compete on Saturday and Sunday in the second round. Four battles will take place:
