Loving these numbers PB! Good to see the drop rates largely consistent with where they should be  :)

I mean you would expect so, and the more packs there are the closer to those numbers everyone should get.



So, 144G for Yeo. Did I overpay?

Id say you got him a bargain.

Remember, our finals seeding for the top four is determined by the number of weeks won, so here's an update!
Head to Head wins are also counted as a weekly win.

LS - 4
Holz - 3
BB - 3
Tom - 3
Pyro - 2
Koop - 2
BM - 2
GL - 2
Nige - 2
Wato - 1
PB - 1
Hawka - 0

LS leads the way with 4 victories, while every other coach (except Hawka :'() has had at least one.
At this stage, LS, Holz, BB and Tom hold the 4 seeded spots, but with a few weeks remaining, including another round of head-to-head, that may change yet.

Ummm how???

I haven't even submitted for multiple weeks this year. Just finding it so hard to actually get online.

[PowerBug]

You started really well so got an early lead. Just gotta submit a team for the next few weeks even if you get 40g it’ll be worth it

A reminder to all coaches that, at the commencement of Round 20, our finals series will have begun.

Importantly, this means that there will be no more exchanges, packs or auctions of any sort after the start of this round.
Additionally, consumable cards cannot be used during the finals, so they will need to be used or exchanged.

Make sure you have appropriate depth to be able to survive the finals should injury or other misfortune strike your team over the finals period.

minigame? :'(

[BB67th]

I'm going to assume that if a consumable is used this week it only applies for one of the teams we are naming, not both?

Correct, they're two seperate submissions, but there's no reason why you can't need two consumables of course  :)

[fanTCfool]

A reminder to coaches with Captain/Extra Player Cards. This is the final week you can use them as they cannot be used during the UTG finals  :)

With one round remaining:

Number of Weekly Wins

Tom - 6
LS - 4
Holz - 4
BB - 4
Pyro - 3
Koop - 3
GL - 3
BM - 2
Nige - 2
PB - 2
Wato - 1
Hawka - 1

The Finals Series
To determine our UTG Season 3 champion, the Finals Series will occur over the final four weeks of the regular season. All coaches will participate in the knockout bracket, so anyone can take the cake. However, to reward the coaches who have succeeded throughout the regular season, the top four positions will be seeded. The seeding will be determined by the following:

1) Total # of First Place Weekly Finishes from Primary Fixture
2) 2nd place - Total # of First Place Weekly Finishes from Primary Fixture
3) Total Points Scored from Primary Fixture
4) 2nd place - Total Points Scored from Primary Fixture

Obviously, there’s a fair chance that these will overlap, so total points may be counted back to third and/or fourth place if necessary to determine the top 4 seeds. Seeded coaches will get a rest in Round 20, while the other eight coaches will be randomly distributed into the first round of the bracket.
Visually, the format looks like this:

Therefore, Tom has Seed #1 locked away, while Seed #2 is currently tied between LS, Holz and BB, with Pyro, Koop and GL all able to join the deadlock this weekend. If we have a tie, Seed #2 will be determined by which coach has the highest total points of those in the deadlock. Additionally, Seed #3 and #4 respectively go to the two coaches with the highest total score over the entire season.

Pending unforeseen injury or other exceptional circumstances, this is the default side that will be submitted on behalf of LS for finals.

D: Brayden Maynard, Shane Savage, Luke Ryan
M: Josh Kelly, Patrick Cripps, Tom Phillips, David Swallow
R: Jarrod Witts
F: Jack Gunston, Brett Deledio, Jesse Hogan

E: Jasper Pittard (D), Hugh Greenwood (M), Rhys Stanley (R), Tom Hawkins (F)

This ensures that we will not have a walkover for any coach.

If you haven't used your collectible cards by now, you've missed the boat!
Sell them for gold or use them in an exchange as they cannot be used during the finals.

[fanTCfool]

1) Total # of First Place Weekly Finishes from Primary Fixture
2) 2nd place - Total # of First Place Weekly Finishes from Primary Fixture
3) Total Points Scored from Primary Fixture
4) 2nd place - Total Points Scored from Primary Fixture

Holz won Rarity Week, taking his total wins to 5, while a win for GL puts him in the deadlock on 4.

Therefore, Tom will be our #1 seed, while Holz slides into Seed #2.
To complete our seedings, we'll need to have a look at total scores...



Total Scores for Season #3

Tom: 18230.24
BB: 17549.65
GL: 17463.85
Koop: 16675.25
PB: 16623.37
Nige: 16606.1
BM: 16588.9
Holz: 16523.0
Pyro: 16437.14
Hawka: 14265.6
Wato: 10259.9
LS: 9163.0



Tom also takes the cake for the most points scored, but already has a seeding. Therefore Seed #3 and #4 go to BB and GL respectively.

Seeds 5 through 12 were randomly assigned. The fixture is denoted below:
