And with that, the dust from Road to Nationals settles, waiting patiently to be kicked up into a frenzied sandstorm at Pro Tour: Los Angeles! We were exceptionally thrilled to see how many communities embraced the spirit of playing great games in the Flesh and Blood this season, and with such a diverse metagame many fresh faces have been welcomed aboard. Congratulations to everyone who earned a precious invite to their National Championship, we look forward to watching you battle against the best in your country for gold, glory, and bragging rights!
Le Gobelin - France
"Enriching encounters, new friendships, and unique gaming sensations - we felt it was so important for us to organise an event that would live up to these values. So we booked an entire medieval castle, complete with a round table catered lunch. It was the biggest Flesh and Blood event we've ever hosted but it cemented our willingness to do more, to go bigger. It's just the beginning for us."
