 | Bradley Horrocks Ben went first and came very close to claiming victory, but Waldorf caught up at the end and Ben couldn't match Waldorf on the last numbers.

Tourney round: Beat Your Bot II (Lockdown Edition): The Final
Notes from the organizer: Some 49 players entered this bot bash, but now it culminates with 2 finalists. At least 6 of you gained points in every round, including the tricky Round 4. Unfortunately, perfection was a necessity for making the final - very impressive stuff from our following finalists:
Ben Leyburn: 65 points (vs Waldorf), biggest margin 110 in bonus round, smallest margin 0 (!) in R1 - where he won on a tiebreak
Joseph H: 65 points (vs Velvet), biggest margin 50 in bonus round, smallest margin 15 in R6. Impressively, no crucials!
Their perfect records will be put to the test in a Hyperlock 15 battle against their allocated bot. Just like in previous rounds, there'll be up to 3 attempts. If one wins attempt 1 and the other loses, the winner is champion. If both win, the player to win by the biggest margin is champion. If both lose, we go on to attempt 2 and repeat the process, and then for attempt 3 if needed. If there is still no winner after 3 attempts, the player to lose by the smallest margin in their best game wins.
Good luck to both finalists - this could get tense!
Ran from: 6 – 9 May 2020. Format: Hyperlock 15. Matches: One-off. Approved.
Fixtures: 2. Completed: 2.
