Honestly a very humble way to win a championship. Kudos to you!

    I think the one thing that really helped SmallAnt win over Shoujo in the teammate pick was that Ant was one of the few who actually beat Shoujo. The gift subs helped, but I think that just helped say “hey, take a closer look” and got the attention… making it so that the two were in a team in the first place. A small victory in the early games gave way to massive victories in the end.

That must of felt like a fu you are not worthy of being here. I admire that you went on and played anyways. Most people in tournaments forget to have fun. You seemed to have fun, which is what made you go on.
