Every match this week was a domination, including the spotlight showdown between Braincellmates and Hot(s) Dads. That match was won by Braincellmates, however the top spot on the ladder has been claimed by Daddy Shams Cat Lounge due their perfect record thus far, having not dropped a map yet. Protectors of Aiur also has a lossless record, but they had a bye week, so have total fewer points at this time.
Clips of the Week
The best news this past week was every single match was casted! Granted, one was a replay cast, but we have a bunch of clips to bring you this week!
First out of the gate, we saw Heavy Greg go up against FUNdamentals, casted by the tireless Tokeybee. OK, maybe it isn’t the explosive play we normally see in clips, but I can’t resist a Probius.

Next, we see Daddy Shams Cat Lounge facing Frank’s Furters, once again casted by Tokeybee. Boss fights are always a great watch!

Fun Fact of the Week That May Only Be of Interest to Me
B East is home to a number of talented healer mains, and this can be seen by the fact that in this season so far, the average hero damage done per match is over 38k, while the average healing done is 26k. It’s a wonder anyone ever dies!
Week 4 Preview
This is the week we will see even more solidification of the standings, and a chance for some of the lower ranked teams to get points on the board. Two matches have yet to be scheduled, but currently we can expect to see most of the games played mid-week, so those ladder positions should become clearer before the weekend. It is still early enough in the season that no one has been eliminated yet, but it could be critical for teams towards the lower end of the seeding. This is a recipe for some great games!
Week 4 Game to Watch
We have a clash of two teams who have yet to drop a map, much less a match, so this will definitively determine who is the Beast of B East. Protectors of Aiur will attempt to assert dominance while Daddy Shams Cat Lounge will bring what has so far been their unstoppable force. All this is going down on Tuesday, March 4, starting at 9:00 pm EST. There is no caster assigned just yet, but a ton of last minute pickups have been happening this season, so mark your calendar, check the NGS website, and get ready to rumble!
Let’s go B East!
