Season VIII ended, Final Ranking has been updated.

159 matches / 394 games have been played during the last weeks. This is again a new record!

[Nastaboi]

I'd like to lower the threshold for my door prize to 14 or 15 completed matches, because season was so long, and players who are unable/unwilling to do all their matches also make it more difficult to those who'd like to. Winner to be announced soon.

[Mythrandir]

Congrats Goblinpiledriver! that was one heck of a league! Good going.
Also congrats to JFK for playing with only one deck!

[Vazdru]

don't have much time neither for [HLL]matches nor the league itself

no - just having one little boy at home yet   but it's "busy season" for me as auditor actually so working av. 50-hours/week + family don't give me much room for magic in general

I try to update things this week and play a match or two some time around Easter


also i've hadn't time to introduce derStefan82 as new moderator of [HLL] so far
he offered some help and i try to coordinate further steps asap to keep things running

[Sturmgott]

I'm dearly sorry, but I cannot find time for online play currently, probably not until the middle of September. So I'll have to drop from the league this seasons and skip the next.

[Helle]

I probably won't find time to play the matches, either. I'm sorry for causing organisational problems.
