I have not been able to play for a while (Not really). So I decided to run a Tlatchli Tournament this year. Below is the reports from the first round of games.

Wolf Riders Humiliate Lava Ballers in Opening Rout
Gobliny 54 – Bugburia 17
The Gobliny Wolf Riders opened their season in stunning fashion, tearing apart the heavily favored Bugburian Lava Ballers in a one-sided 54–17 victory that sent the crowd into a frenzy.
Many expected the Lava Ballers’ size and brutality to control the contest, but Gobliny never allowed the match to slow down. Their raiders struck quickly, attacked from impossible angles, and turned every loose-ball moment into panic for Bugburia.
The attacking star of the day was Vrixit Wolfwhistle, whose speed and vision repeatedly broke through the Lava Ballers’ formation. Every time Bugburia thought they had stabilized, Wolfwhistle found another lane and punished them.
To Bugburia’s credit, they did find one unlikely hero. Defensive honors went to Snivbit Fusefoot, who delivered several desperate stops and prevented an even uglier final score. The small goblin reserve was expected to be a weak link, but instead became the team’s brightest performer.
Still, the match belonged to chaos.
That chaos came from Moggit Boneleap, the official Mayhem Star of the match. Boneleap’s disruptive energy shattered Bugburia’s rhythm from start to finish. Whether stealing possessions, baiting fouls, or vanishing into the smoke near the sideline, he was everywhere.
By the final horn, Gobliny supporters were dancing on the walls, while stunned Lava Ballers fans were left wondering how a powerhouse roster collapsed so completely.
Final Score
Gobliny Wolf Riders 54
Bugburian Lava Ballers 17
