Hello and welcome, everybody! As the days remaining until the winner is crowned wind down, all teams are trying their hardest to claim as many points as possible! Everybody is hard at work, including our reporters! This is Matt reporting to you from the newsroom! I'm your sole anchor today, Katie has other work in the Altador Cup department to do, so I'll be reporting the results along with our field reporter, Johan! There's still no word on Austin's whereabouts, but we'll keep you informed! Anyways, let's get started with the results from the Alabriss Bracket! There was one sweep yesterday, and two near-sweeps! Both near-sweeps were lost by only a one-point margin! Amazing!

Roo Island and Maraqua went head-to-head in an intense match yesterday! Roo Island dominated the field, and was able to come out on top, claiming a win in Yooyuball! The Rooligans were also able to take the three side games from the Mermaids, obtaining yet another clean sweep! Points are vital in this last bracket, the Rooligans are currently in first place in their bracket and third place in the overall standings! We'll see if Roo Island can hold their ground and stand on the podium once again!

Kreludor vs Krawk Island Kreludor and Krawk Island were pitted against each other today! The Pirates came out with their guns blazing as they were able to shut the Moons out for the first half of the Yooyuball match. The Moons were able to make a comeback but it was to no avail, as Krawk Island was able to claim the victory. The Pirates were also able to snag Slushie Slinger and Shootout Showdown from the Moons, but despite all this, Kreludor's fans cheered as loud as they could, and were able to claim Make Some Noise from the Pirates, preventing them from obtaining a clean sweep. Kreludor had been doing well in their last bracket, only losing three games in total! Let's see if they can brush off this rocky start to the final round and make a comeback.

Vela Binal Sitting Down on Bench For our last matchup of this bracket, we saw the underdogs Virtupets go against the struggling Mystery Island Natives. It was an exciting match to watch! Virtupets in the past has focused all their attention on Yooyuball while completely abandoning the side games. It seems like they've gone back to that tactic once again! Virtupets was able to claim Yooyuball from the Natives with a close score of four to three! The Natives were able to side sweep the Robots, despite the Robots taking the overall win! The Natives have been doing slightly better in the past few days, and although it's a little too late to make a substantial difference, there's still some hope for an improved ranking.

Now let's turn this over to our field reporter, Johan!

"Good morning, everyone! This is Johan, live from the stands of the Colosseum. I apologize for my absence. I had some... things... to take care of. Rest assured, all is well and I am still totally NOT Austin. My facial aesthetics and my mustache are far superior to his. Everyone should remain calm as we continue our search for this dangerous man.

Wan Dirx The results from the Minitheus Bracket were very one-sided, with two of the three games ending in sweepy sweeps. The only game not to end in a sweep was Haunted Woods versus Meridell, where Meridell managed to dominate the side games, but fell in Yooyuball. At one point, Meridell looked like a front-runner for the Cup, but since then, they have fallen down to fifth place. Meridell will really have to turn things up and play very well if they want a chance at podium glory once again.

Darigan Citadel was able to pull off their second straight sweep by topping Moltara in a surprisingly close manner. All four games were decided by two points or fewer, with Yooyuball coming down to the wire. The Minions were barely able to hold on to win four to three. Darigan Citadel will need to salvage some late Cup points to be able to push them into the top tier.

Tyrannia Logo Tyrannia swept Shenkuu. Not much more than that needs to be said. Tyrannia should be one of the biggest teams to beat down this final stretch. If they finish as strong as they currently are, they could easily win the Cup. We've seen monumental collapses near the end of the Cup before, so Tyrannia must maintain their composure to keep a firm hold of their championship hopes.

Now we go to the Vaeolus Bracket, where there weren't many surprises either.

First off, we start with Altador against Kiko Lake... See my analysis for Tyrannia. Well, except replace any instance of "Tyrannia" with "Altador" and "Shenkuu" with "Kiko Lake."

Altador Logo Hahahahaha! Just playing! Johan is a real joker sometimes! The second-place Suns of Altador put on another terrific showing for their home fans with a sweep over Kiko Lake. Altador currently sits just three points behind Tyrannia, and still has plenty of time to play catch-up. One bad game from the Fossils could very well spark the Suns into first place. However, if they want to win the Cup, Altador will need to finish very strong. The Suns will be one of the most fun teams to watch down this final stretch.

Next, Brightvale showed Faerieland a dazzling time on the fields, holding the Faeries to only two points in Yooyuball. Brightvale continues to play well, despite currently sitting in eleventh place, and even though they sit in the lower half of the bracket, the Wizards have only been swept four times in the tournament. While that may not seem that impressive, the fifth place team, Meridell, has also been swept four times. Brightvale will definitely be a team to watch during next year's Cup, and chances are they'll probably have a few interesting matches in this last round as well.

Minae MitoraTerror Mountain kept their opponents cold as ice while they stayed hot, as they once again pulled off a dominating victory. The last time Terror Mountain lost a Yooyuball match was June 7th, nearly twenty days ago. Aside from the front-runner, Tyrannia, there has been no team that has been more dominant in that stretch than Terror Mountain. The Chillers will try to carry the momentum along with them in the last bracket and attempt to land a spot in this year's top four. The final days of the Cup will be crucial for the Scary Terrors.

This closing round of the Cup should be exciting to watch. There will be many hard fought matches to watch and look forward to. Hopefully this Cup ends as spectacularly as it started. Now, let's send it back to Matt in the studio. Stay neat, Neopia!"

Thanks, Johan! Now let's wrap this report up with the matches to watch!

Kayn Hireck Today, the Brightvale Wizards will be facing Kiko Lake. Both teams have been doing reasonably well so far in the Cup, so this match will definitely be an exciting match to watch. We'll see if the Kikos can stop the Wizards' sorcery!

Coco Metrone We also have former champions and space rivals Virtupets and Kreludor going against each other today! This will be a heated match to watch for sure! Kreludor seems to have the advantage going into this match, but we'll see if the Robots’ tactic of abandoning the side games and focusing on Yooyuball will help them today!

For our last match to watch we have powerhouses Roo Island and Krawk Island going head-to-head! Both teams have gotten off to a great start in the final bracket! We'll see if the Pirates can pull off a victory, or if the Rooligans will be able to obtain a clean sweep!.

That's it for now! Stay tuned for tomorrow's report! This is Matt signing off!
