Congratulations to Team Xing and Team Wagner for winning their semi-final GNT-C KO matches today. They will still compete in the finals next Sunday, along with all the other flights, to determine the district champions. Normally, the district champion includes a travel subsidy, but this year the national finals are online. Instead, the winners receive fame and glory during our next District Award ceremony, as well as extra masterpoints and potentially favorable seeding next year (not that seeding played any role this year).
Both teams will receive a red ribbon qualifier, as well as at least 15 gold / red masterpoints (20 if they win next week).
