Skirmish Gauntlet: Uprising Gameplay Series

This three part Blitz Constructed game series features three games and six different heroes selected and piloted by charismatic community fan favourite and content creator king, The Tall Timmy, and friends.

Tall Timmy

This Skirmish season, Tall Timmy and friends go one on one, smashing some of their personal top Blitz hero picks into each other, in what is no doubt another must-see Blitz Gauntlet series.

For week three, The Tall Timmy takes on fellow content creating visionary, cave-dwelling Brute lifestyle enthusiast and all round internet overlord, Sydney, Australia's own- Yazi!

In the third match of the Skirmish Gauntlet: Uprising Blitz Constructed series, we see Yazi roll the dice and make a deal with Blasmophet, embracing the Shadow and delving into the dark depths of the Demonastery, as he plays as the Shadow Brute, Levia. On the other side of the arena, we see Tall Timmy, become one with the beast within. Reckless, savage and uncontrollable, driven by bloodlust, carving out his territory in blood and bone, The Tall Timmy plays as the Brute, Rhinar.

Uprising Sealed Showcase Series

This three part game series features one of each matchup between Dromai, Fai and Iyslander, piloted and produced by worldwide fan favourites and some of the sharpest content creators in the game, FaBrika!

The leaderboards consistently feature players from across the region at the top of the standings, and casual Sunday Skirmish events have featured Top 8s with over 8,000 XP between them.

This two day, Classic Constructed and Uprising Draft mixed format event is sure to bring out some of Flesh and Blood's biggest stars as we see the latest developments in a post-Stubby Hammerers metagame one week before Pro Tour Lille!
