GRANADA HILLS - Let the speculation begin. Can Justin Wong run the table and win all six Family Fun Arcade ranbats tournaments? He's 2-for-2, after beating Hugo101 in the title match on Saturday evening.

It's not just that he can go 6-for-6, but there's a lot more on the line than that. I'll mention that in the recap. I do want to say before we get to the recap that I had a lot of fun on the microphone earlier tonight as the stream was happening, even if I was only saying who was on the main stage at the time. A big thanks to Striderzer0 for that.

Here we go with the title match recap ...

The title match was over when ...
... Justin Wong had a dominating start to Game 2. He won the first round with less than 50 percent health remaining but had already established that the title match was going to be over quickly.

Player of the tournament
Let me explain why Justin Wong is the player of the tournament, because I would have went with anyone else in the winners bracket final four. He is now 10-0 through two tournaments, with 22 consecutive games won. In terms of game ratio, I'd be hard pressed to find anyone that is plus-22 after two tournaments, or even three, four or five.

Other notes
Monday is the first qualifying tournament for LA Riots III. It's a lock that almost everyone that competed today will be competing Monday. Whether they make an attempt to go after Justin Wong or avoid him altogether, that remains to be seen. It could be a domino effect. Anyone want to spare me $25?
