[Phoenix Rising: 10 points]
[Stormborn Esports: 0 point]
The first ga of the 12th season of the English Pro Alliance was a thriller. Phoenix Rising secured a flawless victory against Stormborn Esports.
It was the perfect debut ga for the new season that the dia and the league organizers could have ever wished for. A perfect thriller, an exciting ga filled with dominance, skill, and finesse, all sponsored by a legendary Phoenix Rising team led by the increasingly legendary Dain Ironvalor and its controller, Gabriel Ironwall.
Gabriel Ironwall... it was not his surna and yet that was what Gabriel was called these days, and it started after Phoenix Rising’s captain led the club to a 4th consecutive RPG champions league win, right on Cyber Squad’s heels.
On matchday 1, Gabriel Ironwall led his team to another dominant win, centing the purple reign of his club as the benchmark in the English Pro Alliance after Cyber Squad’s fall.
That was just one ga in the matchday though.
Matchday 1 had more gas, and the first few gas fanned the flas of passion burning in the hearts of the fans.

In previous seasons of the English Pro Alliance, matchday 1 is usually stretched across days, mostly 3 days, pro clubs clashing in the first ga of the season for supremacy.
But this season, the 12th season of the English Pro Alliance, the English FA tried a new format, employing the format of the last matchday on the first matchday.
This was why 4 gas were scheduled to be played at the sa ti... 3:00pm.
2 were already played, but at the sa ti, 2 gas were yet to be concluded, having extended to cover more ti than the first 2 gas.
Phoenix Rising’s ga was a thriller, but the ga between Cerberus Core and Avalon Sovereign was not any less high-staked and filled with tension.
Like Phoenix Rising, Avalon Sovereign was the club at ho but that did not make them escape the fury of the visitors.
Avalon started on the front foot, riding the energy of their ho fans who filled the stadium and sailing their passion to secure quick double wins in the individual battle round.
Even Cerberus’ captain lost against the Avalon captain in the first individual battle. And yet, they could not claim a clean wipe in the individual battle round as Cerberus’ vice-captain secured a narrow win against her opponent.
That victory broke the Avalon montum, but only slightly.
In the 3 vs 3 battle round, Avalon ca out with even more hype and energy. They won convincingly, taking their total points tally to 4 points against their opponent’s 1 point.
And yet, it was in the team battle that all hell broke loose, their montum broken by sheer willpower of their opponents and their seamless teamwork.
Cerberus Core, a team with a core of bestial Avatars exploded when it mattered in the team battle, staying huddled and compact in enemy ground, against not just the pro players standing against them but also against the tens of thousands of fans jeering them in the stadium.
In the end, only one man was left standing... Cerberus’ vice-captain, a Combat Mage.
Cerberus Core won against all odds.
It was a battle with a crazy twist, and now, all the focus went to the last 2 battles, mostly on one club that was tipped to return to their best this season, the Caster-led Cyber Squad.
The team battle already started.
[Cyber Squad: 3 points]
[Lionheart Legacy: 2 points]
Cyber Squad claid a clean sweep of their opponents in the individual battle round, Stinger of War leading the way with a win over the opposition to an eventual flawless 3-0 win.
That performance left the stadium in London boiling in excitent, Cyber Squad fans bellowing war chants.
"The Battle God is back!" They sang.
And yet, despite the hype and excitent in the stadium, in the 3 vs 3 battle rush, Caster, Cyber Squad’s captain made an inexplicable decision, omitting himself from the 3 vs 3 battle rush squad.
It led to protests from the ho fans, booing their own players but Caster didn’t budge or make a last minute change, leading to a brutal knockout by their opponents. Lionheart Legacy won the 3 vs 3 battle rush.
It led to outrage in the stadium.
While the fans questioned their captain though, none of the Cyber Squad players protested. They understood his decision, and they believed in him.
It was a tactical decision because while the opposition captain fought with his all to secure the grueling victory, Caster kept himself fresh for the team battle. Caster aid to create an all-ti dominant performance against a famous team.
And he did.
BAM!
As soon as the ga started, Stinger of War exploded, embodying the spirit of the Battle God Avatar.
That afternoon, on the big screen, Cyber Squad were driven through the mory lane. They saw the Battle God again after so long of being leashed.
The Battle God, in his full glory wreaked havoc across enemy lines, leading a changed Cyber Squad team to a dominant team victory.
Individually, Caster claid the man of the match award as with Stinger of War, he secured a legendary 3v1, snuffing the life out of 3 different enemy Avatars on the chaotic battlefield, including the enemy captain’s Avatar.
At the end, no one rembered the 3 vs 3 battle rush.
At the end, tens of thousands of fans bellowed across the stadium.
"BATTLE GOD!"
"BATTLE GOD!"
"BATTLE GOD!"
It was a crazy one-man army performance from Caster; he put on a show for the fans. He gave them what they loved and wanted.

Cyber Squad’s victory was confird before the final 3:00pm ga ca to an end. Pendragon Esports vs Exo Genesis was the most conservative ga of the 3:00pm gas.
Both teams were even, and instead of going for a reckless all-out battle, they choose a conservative and asured battle.
In the individual battle round, after 3 grueling battles that were all pushed to the ti limit, Exo Genesis secured a 2-1 advantage over the ho side.
And yet, in the 3 vs 3 battle rush, Pendragon Esports made their coback. Like in the individual battle round, Exo Genesis was initially leading again but ho advantage played a more significant role this ti.
"BOOOOOOO!!!"
The sound was deafening.
The boos drowning the Exo Genesis players was earsplitting. No matter how professional the players were, when faced against such a raucous atmosphere, they could not stay calm.
It was in the final clash of the 3 vs 3 battle rush that one of the players made a big blunder due to the pressure, allowing the Pendragon player to take advantage and make a stunning coback.
The arena for the battle was a treacherous one, set on an active volcano. Due to his blunder, the Pendragon Avatar managed to push his enemy into the smoldering depths of the volcano, his Avatar suffering the fate of being burned alive.
He died in less than 5 seconds.
Just like that, Pendragon Esports started their coback, now leading their opponents 3-2 in points.
Now, everything pointed to the team battle being the decider and both teams prepared for it with passion and determination.
In the end, none of all that mattered though, because the ga was tight and even. Both teams pushed each other all the way.
An Exo Genesis player died first, but an opposition player from Pendragon died within 10 seconds to follow the first death. Their substitutes arrived at the sa ti, making it an even battle again.
The 2nd and 3rd deaths happened at the sa ti. Both Clerics were targeted, and both teams let it happen so they could deal more damage to their enemies in return using their Clerics as bait.
Both Clerics died at the sa ti. Once again, still no advantage.
Their 2nd substitutes entered the ga at the sa ti. This was when Pendragon Esports finally took the lead, their captain securing a vital advantage by killing the enemy Paladin.
That opened Exo Genesis up, an advantage that spiraled into the eventual win. It was an advantage, but it didn’t make the struggle to clinch the victory any easier for the ho side.
Pendragon Esports fought tooth and nail for their win, and at the end, only 2 of their Avatars were left standing, battered and both at red health.
It was a close victory, but Pendragon Esports didn’t care about the details.
What mattered is that theyw on.
[Pendragon Esports: 8 points]
[Exo Genesis: 2 points]
They secured all 3 points.
The score line at the end didn’t reflect the grueling nature of the ga. Exo Genesis played a good ga in enemy ground.
After that ga, Warstar fans across the country had a chance to rest. A basic English Pro Alliance ga lasts an hour and 20 minutes; 80 minutes. 10 minutes for each individual battle, 3 in total; 20 minutes for the 3 vs 3 battle rush, and 30 minutes for the team battle.
Most teams finish their gas before ti, but this is the normal tifra, giving enough ti for fans to rest before the next round of gas.
The next round of gas would start at 4:00pm.
