Welcome to The Daily Neopets' Definitely-No-Longer-Daily Report on the Altador Cup! And yes, you may have noticed that we took a week's worth of hiatus. That was for reasons that I cannot disclose, but it involves snow, an Omelette, test papers and tons of Meepits.

While we have been away, Round 4 has come and gone and this segment will be just a recap of the most exciting moments of the last round, and the standouts and the sitdowns that showed up. In addition, we will be giving you a rundown of the three final brackets and all the teams in it!

And if we are going to talk about exceptional play, we need to talk about Faerieland. And wow - what a journey it has been for the team. For many years in the Cup, the Faeries were seen as a second-rated team, and to most commentators the Faeries really never had a chance to win. Well, Faerieland has proved them wrong. And they proved it with style. Again and again they had defied all expectations and won, if not outright crushed their opponents.

But the shining moment for the Faeries came during the third day of Round 4, when they faced off against Tyrannia. Up to then, the Tyrannian Fossils were borderline unstoppable as they got win after win - their only real challenge was Krawk Island and even then the Pirates had to settle for a draw. The Faeries seemed like an easy sweep for the Fossils - but they turned it around big time. Out of absolutely nowhere, Faerieland seized the three support games - including SoSD, where they had been unbeaten to deliver Tyrannia's very first defeat. With the wind caught up in their sails and crowds of supporters cheering for them Faerieland, the dark horse of the tournament, may be set to give us the biggest upset in the history of the Cup!

Another team that deserves a mention is Meridell, who had shown a second win and has taken most of the matches in the Alabriss Bracket of Round Four, which landed them the top spot - but they were denied entry by the aforementioned Faerieland by just 1 point. They really need to show great skill to get to the podium this year. And speaking of top bracket, the top 5 teams - Brightvale, Tyrannia, Mystery Island, Krawk Island and Kiko Lake - have remained mostly steady as of late, but once Round 5 starts, expect a free-for-all of epic magnitude.

One team that fell from grace though is Kreludor. The second place finisher from last year are now lounging in the bottom bracket after a multitude of defeats from all angles. Early favorites Maraqua aren't any better as they are now in the last place of the second bracket. Haunted Woods unfortunately are still not doing very well ranking at the bottom. They've had a fall from grace this year and hopefully next year will be better for them. Shakeups and surprises really are the theme of this year's cup.

This is a quick piece, and I'm sorry about that. Round 5 is about to begin and it's sure to be an exciting round! Until then, this is Miko signing off.

I've seen some people on the NeoBoards asking how many rounds are there. Well, though on the Standinfs Page it says 4 Rounds, the match schedule actually says that there are five rounds this year after the "Plague" that TNT found out about.
 
What does that mean you ask? Well, if your team is in the Top 6, it'll go into the top bracket, which awards the most points; Middle 6 teams go to the middle bracket, which awards less points, and bottom 6 goes to the bottom bracket.
 
This means that the best teams will face off against each other and there won't be a situation where a team like Krawk Island won't sweep a bracket filed with teams like Terror Mountain, Roo Island and Haunted Woods (no offence to those team) and get the most points, making the system fairer to the underdogs.
 
Tl;dr? Keep playing until the last minute and who knows? There might well be an upset. Game on guys!

You guys are in the top bracket of Round 5! Congrats!

I'm at Rank 6 and I'll be playing as much as possible but the thought of Slushie Slingers... Br... I hate that game.

You guys won against Tyrannia the Steamrollers! This could be the season of the "Miracle of the Faerie" if you continue the plays! Good luck with Daigran Citadel and maybe Brightvale if they decide to show their face!

Ahem... Welcome to The Daily Neopets' No-Longer-Daily Report on the Altador Cup. I'm Miko. As you have probably noticed, there is a little drought of reports on the Altador Cup these few days. This is due to personal issues and the Staff Tests I'm buried under. But to make up for that, I'll be recapping on three days' worth of matches, so let's cut to the chase and go to Day 3 of Round 3!

During Day 3, there were a few ups and downs, but the status quo for the Alabriss Bracket didn't change too much. Brightvale kicked things into high gear as they slaughtered Moltara in all four games with shocking margins. Lost Desert also kept up their tempo in their match against Terror Mountain, as they won 3 games to keep on pace with the leaders. But Kiko Lake wasn't able to slip past the strong defenses of Shenkuu as the Ninjas forced a tie.

Minitheus Bracket started off with a sweep by Faerieland against Virtupets, who were once again introduced to the dustbin. Faerieland has been dealing performances that are more reminiscent of top level teams... Well, showed. Mystery Island continued to see wins as they knocked Meridell in all games except Shootout Showdown. Altador and Roo Island drew each other out in the final match of the bracket, leaving both teams steadily at the middle of the bracket.

In Vaeolus Bracket, Kreludor and Maraqua's recovery were steady but slow - leaving fans of the team with only ties against Darigan Citadel and Krawk Island respectively. And predictably, Tyrannia trounced the Zombies.

The next day was more quiet, but that didn't stop surprises from showing their faces. But the tempo of the Alabriss Bracket went on as expected as Brightvale swept, Kiko Lake kept pace and the geological features drew each other out. No- The main action of the day happened at Minitheus Bracket where Meridell swatted away the Faeries in all games expect Slushie Slinger, bringing the Faeries' momentum to a crashing halt. And it wasn't the last trick that the Knights had up their sleeves. The other games went on quite as expected, with a sweep for the Altador Suns and a dominating win for the Mystery Island Natives.

Vaeolus Bracket didn't have any sweeps but there were quite some dominating wins. Darigan Citadel showed great potential in Yooyuball, but that did not extend to the other support games which allowed Krawk Island to clinch the win. Tyrannia was Tyrannia as they trampled past Maraqua. And Kreludor finally got something done - albeit that something was Haunted Woods.

And the final day of Round 3 gave us many many sweeps. Shenkuu and Brightvale trampled past Moltara and Lost Desert respectively; and Terror Mountain melted in the face of Kiko Lake.

Minitheus Bracket was once again throwing out surprises as Roo Island danced around Virtupets to win all the support games to take the win. Meridell continued their power charge as they overtook Altador. And though Faerieland's sudden top-tier play managed to bring Mystery Island's win streak to a halt, the Knights' last-second wins forced Faerieland to settle for third. Vaeolus Bracket ended predictably with triple sweeps - Maraqua dried up in the face of the Citadels' minions; Krawk Island swabbed Kreludor off their decks; and the less we talk about the Zombies, the better for them. They are already having a rough enough time this tournament.

Whew! That's three days' worth of games there. So sorry for the delay, dear viewers. But thankfully, my workload is finally letting up, so I'll be manning this wild ride once more as we go into Round 4. Until then, this is Miko signing off. Good Night Neopia!

Welcome to the Daily Neopets' Report on the Altador Cup, Round 3! Once again, I'm Miko live in the stands of the Yooyuball Stadium. Some fans are still here, but most have moved outside to celebrate a day where the leaders' momentum came to a much needed halt.

Let's start off with the Alabriss bracket where low-ranking team Lost Desert stunned sports fans and commentators alike as they managed a tie against first placed Brightvale. This came as a surprise for the Wizards as Lost Desert weren't actually in top shape leading up to the match. But a tie is a tie, and better luck next time. The other two matches were swept rather predictably as Shenkuu continued to show strength and Moltara continued to lose it - resulting in an all-out sweep in favor of Shenkuu. Terror Mountain started to slip as Kiko Lake took 3 games and only left Shootout Showdown for the Chillers.

In the Minitheus Bracket Faerieland continued their rise to glory as they swept all four games from Roo Island. It's another win for these fan favorites and their powerful performance is putting them in arm's reach of the Cup. But Mystery Island is looking to prevent that as they took 3 games against the Altador Suns, with them managing to secure the goal to get Shootout Showdown. Both teams are new to the big leagues, but their hunger is strong. Meridell ended the bracket with a near-sweep of Virtupets.

The Vaeolus Bracket had two pairs of sweeps - Darigan Citadel winning Kreludor and Haunted Woods getting decimated by Maraqua. But the match that excited everyone is the last. Tyrannia finally hit a speed bump in their journey to be the winners as Krawk Island managed to draw them out by winning Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise. This however may prove futile as Tyrannia continues to be a dominating force in the bracket. And going back for a while - Maraqua's wins have finally proven that it has climbed out of their funk and are now back in the running for the cup.

Well that's all for today! There were some great games today, and also some predictable ones. Let us all see what comes next. Until next time, this is Miko signing off. Good night Neopia!

Hello, and welcome to The Daily Neopets' Daily Report on the Altador Cup. Once again, I'm Miko. Well folks, round 3 has swung into action and there are bound to be some mix ups and shocks this round, if we can trust the opening games. This may well our be the year of the underdogs - but I'd better start on the results before I lose you guys.

The new Alabriss Bracket started off with a bang as Brightvale and Kiko Lake clashed. The Kikos held strong in Yooyuball but they didn't shine enough in support games, which allowed Brightvale to secure their victory. Once more, Brightvale is on a roll. Lost Desert crushed Moltara into powder in the next match, even with Magma fans rallying cries. And rising stars of the cup Terror Mountain and Shenkuu outplayed each other to a halt. Expect to see more powerful plays from them.

Minitheus Bracket was thrown into a loop for a few minutes as fan favorite underdogs Faerieland struck Virtupets where it hurts. The Robots managed to create some breathing room by winning Yooyuball but with this win and the last 2 brackets, the Faeries may finally have a chance at the Cup. Mystery Island once again are dancing to the beat as they walloped Meridell in all games except Shootout Showdown. Roo Island seemed to have found a source of energy as they tied Altador in the final game of the match.

This round has the Vaeolus Bracket as the bracket to be watching. It includes five powerhouse teams - and the Haunted Woods. Speaking of them, they still can't come out of their grave as Darigan Citadel sweeped more soil onto it. Maraqua and Krawk Island clashed, with no side coming up with a decisive victory. But just tying the Pirates could be a sign that the Mermaids are back for more. Unlike Kreludor, who got bashed into moondust by Tyrannia, who are starting to look like ACX's Kikos.

Wow! One day and already there are twists and turns in this path. So where will this path take us next? Well, you just have to wait to find out. This is Miko signing off. Good Night Neopia!

Welcome to TDN's Daily Report on the Altador Cup and finally we are at the end of Round 2! I'm Miko, live from the TDN Sports Center. It's been a wild ride of ups and downs this past week and finally it's over. But this is just the second stop of the park. We've got quite a few to go through today, so let's get it started!

We start off with some confusion, courtesy of the Alabriss Bracket. A scheduling mishap caused all the teams of the bracket to play against the same opponents as last time. Fans were left scratching their heads at this - and more than one report has surfaced of fans ending up in the wrong match site. We tried to contact the ACC for a comment but it's radio silence on their end.

But the teams took it with stride and played nevertheless. First in the bracket was Brightvale and Mystery Island, with the Wizards taking the broom to the Robots. With Krawk Island and Terror Mountain, Krawk Island swept them aside. And finally Mystery Island easily out performed Haunted Woods. So yes, the results were the same as last time's.

Moving onto a bracket that isn't in a Groundhog Day loop, the Shenkuu Ninjas ended the bracket in strength as they ran circles around the Moons and trashed them in all four games. Things aren't looking up for the Moons, and many are asking where has the former powerhouse gone to. Faerieland continued their path to a possible victory as they won all the support games and lost to Lost Desert by the slimmest of margins in Yooyuball. And it may be high noon - I mean high tide for Maraqua again as the Mermaids seemed to have shaken off most of the seaweed clogging them up to deliver a crushing victory over Altador, just missing out on a sweep by on goal scores in Yooyuball.

The Minitheus Bracket had some unexpected wins, but yet again Tyrannia bowls over another team - Kiko Lake - to mark their second straight round win-streak of the Cup. Arch-rivals Darigan Citadel and Meridell were up next and the Knights were deemed victorious by the scores - although Minions' fans were saying otherwise, judging by their win in Make Some Noise. Once again Moltara is in its worst shape in many years as they were handily defeated by the Roo Island Rooligans. They'd better stoke the flames again if they want to have a good finish this round.

And that's the end of Round 2 people! Tune in next time for some Round 3 action, for it may well be another bumpy ride. From everyone here, this is Miko of TDM signing off. Good Night Neopia!

Well, you took our place as third place. We tied with Maraqua while everyone else sweeped so we're third in the bracket.
 
Good luck with the rest of the group, Faerieland! We Pirates will be waiting in Round 5.

Welcome to TDN's Daily Report on the Altador Cup and finally we are at the end of Round 2! I'm Miko, live from the TDN Sports Center. It's been a wild ride of ups and downs this past week and finally it's over. But this is just the second stop of the park. We've got quite a few to go through today, so let's get it started!

We start off with some confusion, courtesy of the Alabriss Bracket. A scheduling mishap caused all the teams of the bracket to play against the same opponents as last time. Fans were left scratching their heads at this - and more than one report has surfaced of fans ending up in the wrong match site. We tried to contact the ACC for a comment but it's radio silence on their end.

But the teams took it with stride and played nevertheless. First in the bracket was Brightvale and Mystery Island, with the Wizards taking the broom to the Robots. With Krawk Island and Terror Mountain, Krawk Island swept them aside. And finally Mystery Island easily out performed Haunted Woods. So yes, the results were the same as last time's.

First game of round 3 is against Maraqua... I don't know how to feel about that... But let's go Pirates! A win in this bracket would put us in second place!
