One of the last events before the rotation and even though Jakeem wins yet another event, there is plenty of room for creativity in the format before rotation. More and more ADW figures are making their mark in the metagame, but Dustin and Jakeem take the win at one of the tougher venues in the ROC Circuit. Congratulations, Dustin!
Analysis:
Ok, so Jakeem wins again. But checkout that 2nd Place team and 8th Place team. Two Hulks? Is this the Twilight Zone? It’s great to see some creativity and uniqueness abound in a format where Jakeem is the known commodity. Superman, KC Green Lantern, and even a couple of Samantha Captain America teams made an appearance in the Top 8. Let’s hope it continues post-rotation… and we won’t just see Goblin King and Jakeem for the rest of the year.
