POLIAC'24 Auntum Season - Day 31

Full Schedule & Ranking table for GOLDEN LEAGUE

The thirty-first round of the Golden League, a rematch of Round 8, solidified the position of leader Hive account@benbow2017, and the defending champion recorded another record-breaking performance. With only 3 rounds left in the season, the fight for the podium and survival is on a knife's edge.

Sensations and Key Decisions:

Leader Solidifies Position: Leader Hive account@benbow2017 defeated Hive account@sk1920 for the second time this season, allowing him to maintain a three-point lead over Hive account@danmaruschak.

Hive account@danmaruschak Takes Revenge: The American avenged his loss to Hive account@erikklok in the first match. It was the Dutchman who set the GL record then, which no one has managed to beat since. It is now certain that the title will be decided between Hive account@benbow2017 and Hive account@danmaruschak—the deficit of the remaining players is too large to make up in the final three rounds.

Fight for Third Place: The battle for third place looks more interesting, especially after Hive account@ptaku defeated Hive account@new.things and Hive account@manuvert fell to Hive account@wahacoce. Hive account@ptaku's deficit to the podium is now only three points, which, as it turns out, can be easily gained but even more easily lost.

Another Unknown (6th Place): The fight for sixth place is the next unknown—there are three contenders: Hive account@cezary-io, Hive account@wahacoce, and Hive account@racibo. The latter conceded his duel to Hive account@fredkese this round. I have no doubt, however, that he will still factor into this lineup. Otherwise, Hive account@bucipuci will catch him.

Hive account@bucipuci Continues His Move to The TOP: The Czech player secured an advance to 9th place in a direct duel with Hive account@merthin, thereby avenging his loss in the first match. Knowing the Czech player, this was not his last word this season. Advancing another position may be difficult, but a season record?

Relegation Zone Situation: Certain to be relegated to the SL, Hive account@patif2025 lost to Hive account@mushanov, who is fighting for survival. Wins alone won't be enough for the Bulgarian—to stay up, he will need stumbles from Hive account@erikklok or Hive account@itz.inno.

What's Next? Rematch of Round 10:

Ahead of us is Round 33—the penultimate round of the GL:

• Hive account@benbow2017 vs Hive account@ptaku: HIT OF THE ROUND! Leader vs. 5th place.
• Hive account@merthin vs Hive account@new.things: Hive account@merthin needs three points to stay in the TOP 10, and Hive account@new.thing needs those points to maintain a podium spot.
• Hive account@danmaruschak vs Hive account@sk1920: Only a win for the American will give him a chance for the championship.

Will Hive account@danmaruschak manage to break Hive account@benbow2017's streak in the final rounds?

Full Schedule & Ranking table for SILVER LEAGUE

The thirty-first round of the POLIAC Silver League brought the final emergence of the two main favorites for promotion: Hive account@tom45p and Hive account@caspermoeller89 pulled away from their rivals, and a crucial victory by Hive account@davidthompson57 earned him an extra award and a chance at the TOP 5.

Leaders Dominate and Fierce Battle for 3rd Place

Leaders Maintain Their Lead: Leaders Hive account@tom45p and Hive account@caspermoeller89 maintain their lead over the other players and are getting closer to the coveted promotion. A twelve-point advantage over third-place players Hive account@actifit-godfish and Hive account@silvertop puts them in a comfortable position before the last seven matches of the season. It is easy to calculate that the leaders only need three more wins to celebrate promotion.

Fight for 3rd Place: Just like in the GL, a fierce battle for third place continues behind them, with players on the podium changing like in a kaleidoscope. Hive account@flemingfarm lost to Hive account@homesteadlt, so Hive account@actifit-godfish and Hive account@silvertop took his place. Hive account@alovely088 and Hive account@davidthompson57 are also still in the race for the podium. The Englishman improved his season record this round. Does this mean the Englishman has planned to peak in form at the end of the season?
