N-Day¹³: Aftermath

The number 13 may be unlucky for some, but this NDay it has brought great fortune to our champions, Jellyfish Elite Fighting Force, who improved on their second-place finish from March to take the faction's first-ever win in splendid fashion, accumulating over one million points. Our eventual champions emerged on top after a lengthy slugfest between five major factions, beating out newcomers Supreme Powers Eviscerating All Rivals, who took the brunt of the hits, resulting in over 700,000 radiation despite a staggering 3.7 million intercepts. Despite this, SPEAR remained strong in second, followed by returning underdogs Starlight Brigade in third and the incumbent champions Anime Nations Against Liberals, who held on to 4th place despite accumulating over one million radiation.
