This year at LVO, we had a special “Pink Slip’ match after hours between the Nemesis and Rivals tournaments. Brian of What the Hex faced off against Mike from Sleeksbowl and Underworlds Underground in a winner takes all best of three nemesis showdown. When I say winner takes all, I absolutely mean it! At the end of the match, the winner would take possession of his opponent’s fully painted warband and faction cards – to the victor went the spoils. Big shout out to the What the Hex crew for co-announcing it with Thomas and I, as well as Alexx from Shadeglass Reflections for recording, editing, and hosting the video.
I don’t want to spoil anything, but this was one of the more intense back-and-forth matches I’ve personally witnessed, and the ending is absolutely the height of drama. If you have a free two hours, you gotta watch this showdown, linked below.
If you can’t handle the run time, or just want to skip to the end and get a spoiler, here’s a snip that links to the final end phase of the final game:

Pink Slips will likely be continued in the future if we two podcast crews cross paths at a convention again, so be on the lookout for more high stakes shootouts. In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy spending glory!
