After some tight battles and one big upset, we move on to round 3 of the first bracket. Here's our matchups:
9. Don Corneo (VII) vs. 5. Olan (T)
After ekeing out a 9-8 upset over topseeded Bahamut (I), our favorite slum lord faces off against the master astrologer Olan and his Galaxy Stop attack. Olan dispatched Raine (VIII) without too much trouble, winning 11-7.
6. Ultros (VI) vs. 2. Hojo (VII)
Lovable cephalopod Ultros completely dominated Cid (X) in round two, winning 15-2. Now he faces the crazed doctor and beach bum Hojo in what should be a premier matchup in the tournament. Hojo was victorious over Namingway (IV) 13-6.
