Numerous intense conflicts were seen last week, as the March Madness X tournament, witnessed Special Weapons and Tactics, Water Vikings, Aliens, Smart Penguins, Help Force, Scarlet Republic, The Bastille Vanguard, People’s Imperial Confederation, Templars, and the Elite Guardians fighting across five different battles. Out of the ten, the Templars, Helpers, Rebels, the Republic, Vikings, and the Bastille Vanguard advanced to the Semi-Finals.
This upcoming Saturday will see Vanguards and Doritos battling out first, with another battle between the Help Force and Aliens proceeding it. On Sunday, we will see Templars and Clovers battling first, and Rebels fighting with the Vikings later. The winners will advance to the Semi-Finals, while the remaining four armies will end their journey in the tournament.
Club Penguin Armies approached several active individuals in the community, requesting them to present their predictions on the upcoming Semi-Final battles.
THE BASTILLE VANGUARD vs. doritos
To start the weekend, we see two brother allies meet on the battlefield. Doritos come from a recent dominating streak, recently broken, at the Top of the Top Ten Armies of CPA, whereas the Vanguards come from upsetting People’s Imperial Confederation in Round 1. While this battle inclines more toward the Doritos, it’ll absolutely be a good battle.
DCP vs TBV’s first war battle
Ghostt, SR Leader: 3-0-0 DCP, easy
Lass: EGCP Leader: DCP wins [3-0-0]
Lana, EGCP HCOM: DCP wins [3-0-0]: I believe there is no doubt about this
Yeeter,CPA Cartoonist: DCP wins [3-0-0]: Obvious from the start cuz of the sizes and power its hold
Thuanthaijo: HF Leader: DCP wins [3-0-0]: TBV would need Scars to lead them to even stand a chance against DCP’s size.
aliens vs. Help Force
Aliens vs. SP in Qualifiers
Ghostt, SR Leader: 2-1-0 HF, I think that this is a hard one because I want to say Aliens might have the stronger EU/UK division but HF is better with battles overall.Lass, EGCP Leader: Aliens wins [2-1-1 OT]
Lana, EGCP HCOM: Help Force wins [2-0-1]: Seeing the development of the two armies during the tournament, I believe it may be a difficult decision, but I think HF has a small advantage
Yeeter, CPA Cartoonist: Help Force wins [2-1-1 OT]: Aliens are picking up the pace in CPAB and so does HF with their anniversary but i do think that HF’s current situation will win this battle
army of club penguin vs. templars
The two armies last met in a war between the two, which was highly dominated by the Army of Club Penguin, hence while the battle inclines more towards the Clovers, Templars come from a victory against the Elite Guardians, and may prove to give a hard competition to the Clovers, hence this battle will be one to watch for; as a tough competition can be expected from the battling armies.
ACP vs. TCP in war
Ghostt, SR Leader: 2-1-0 ACP, I know ACP locks in for tournaments and has a lot of veteran support but TCP showed that they have numbers to compete with them recently.
Lass, EGCP Leader: ACP wins [3-0-0]
Lana, EGCP HCOM: ACP wins [2-0-1]: same argument as Aliens and HF, but as someone who has watched some TCP vs ACP war transmissions, I believe ACP will do better
Thuanthaijo, HF Leader: ACP wins [3-0-0]: ACP has been strong for the past few months. Although TCP hasn’t been doing that bad they aren’t at their best so this should be an easy victory for ACP.
REBEL PENGUIN FEDERATION VS. WATER VIKINGS
The Rebels and Vikings are no strangers to one another, as they have already been paired against each other countless times in tournaments. Most times, the Rebels came out on top. However, in last year’s March Madness finals, the Vikings managed to upset them and claim the clover trophy. Will they be able to beat the Federation once more? Or is RPF winning their third tournament trophy in a row?
WV vs. RPF – MM IX Finals
Ghostt, SR Leader: 1-2-0 WV, This is going to be a close one. I know those are the same 2 armies that were in the grand finals last year so I am expecting it to be close. But considering WV won I want to lean more in their favor just because I’d like to see them win a 2nd year in a row.
Lass: EGCP Leader: RPF wins [2-1-1 OT]
Lana, EGCP HCOM: RPFwins [2-1-1 OT]: This one I’m forward to watch. Both armys have good developments and I believe this will be the most difficult of quarter finals. That’s why I said that RPF may win with OT :c
Yeeter,CPA Cartoonist: RPFwins [2-0-1]: R. P. F. (And also WV, i haven’t seen much progress from them honestly especially their events and sizes)
Thuanthaijo: HF Leader: RPFwins [2-1-0]: WV have been doing well since they returned and they are capable of maxing high at important events. I think RPF will have the advantage here due to their consistent performance over the past few months. They also always do well in tournaments.
