gorilaa and Frailty have been added as the newest members of the 1v1 council, welcome them to the team!

The survey is now closed, results will come out sometime this week

Hello gamers, with PL ended it's time for another tiering survey. We've heard your cries during the last 8 months of silence, and will be generally increasing the amount of surveys we hold going forward. 1v1 council values community input when tiering, and we could have been a lot more on top of...

Hellfire Heatrans (0) vs (3) Hyperspace Horrors SV Bo7: Indi01 vs Frailty ORAS: gorilaa vs A Hero's Destiny BW : Itchy vs Iron Crusher
