Tournament 68: Mid-Year Grand Slam - Day 1

Day 1 of the 2016 Mid-Year Grand Slam proved to be a mostly by the numbers reveal of the first half of the randomly drawn bracket for Round 1! #1 seed and reigning Undisputed Champion DECEPTION was comfortable in his defeat of Jauger, while #3 seed and recently anointed #1 contender VenoMark ended the day's action with an emphatic +MAX impact against Celeste!

There were three devastating MAX Damage results on Day 1: Ratt bounced back from Supercard 80: Tower of Power XVI, unleashing a Hall of Fame performance against ermac. European Union fighter Chromatose surprised everyone when he annihilated Corrupt MINION! Not far behind was The Great Genku, whose +25 assault shocked everybody by sending Duo Division upstart Menas to the injured list!

Other favourites starting their tournament on the right note: Hokey, "The Guardian" CaTigeReptile, "The Fallen" LordSkarlet, DaemonX"American Dream" Scott-Howell and United: DArqueBishop. 2016 Fighter For Europe Nephrite was the closest to a shock elimination, taking a hard loss from Alliance face: The_Hurricane.
