What an amazing tournament that was! The matches were hot and intense. Congrats to Shoomway for taking 1st place! Shoomway will be getting some sweet merchandise as well as the grand prize that was revealed today. If you didn’t hear about it yet, the grand prize winner gets to be immortalized in our next game (Game 4?)–in some way we can’t tell you how yet since Game 4 details have yet to be revealed!
 
Falling close behind we had SnipeTheWolf in 2nd place and TheMcFargy in 3rd place. Here’s a look at how it all played out using our brackets as visuals:

This weekend, a Triple Threat comes your way in BattleBlock Theater! You’ll see it right when you load up your game — BAM! Don’t worry, it’s practically harmless…until you decide to arm it with frog bombs, exploding airplanes and good ol’ fists if you choose hand-to-hand combat (now that’s a triple threat!).
