Last Weekend's Championships Snap Shot

Nov 29, 2021 Chris Bewley

Last weekend rounded out the final two national championships for 2021, with tournaments taking place in Hong Kong and Italy. Before we tell you what happened, we'd like to give you a chance to watch an absolutely fantastic match, fitting to round off Classic Constructed in 2021. After two days of play, Bun Ar on Chane faced off against Jack Tang on Oldhim in the finals of the Hong Kong Championship, showcasing one of the most exciting and tightly fought matches of Flesh and Blood you're every likely to see. Click below if you want to watch the full match, or read on for a Snap Shot of both the Hong Kong and Italy Championship events.

Over in Italy, Pietro Gerletti was crowned National Champion. Pietro is the top ranked player in Italy by a considerable margin, and is well known as a skilled and devoted Kano player. In the final, Pietro faced down Davide Rizzi piloting the ever popular Briar, Warden of Thorns, burning Briar (and many, many other heroes) to a crisp to do what they said couldn't be done with the Dracai of Aether to become Italy's first National Champion!

Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, Bun Ar managed to take the 2021 Hong Kong Regional Championship! After two days of Tales of Aria draft and Classic Constructed action, Chane decks managed to significantly outperform, placing three players in the Top 8 out of eight starters. In the final, Bun put on a dazzling display of damage against Jack Tang and Oldhim, Grandfather of Eternity. It's impossible to watch the final match without admiring Bun's determination to find a way to win with the odds stacked against him, and in the process showing all of Rathe that Chane, Bound by Shadow must still be respected.
