Awesome little night with Chalice,Muerte and Haak. Best we got was 2nd but had some awesome games. To be honest our losses were almost exclusively our fault for not managing timing correctly so always on the back foot coming into areas or missing them entirely. Good fun and lots of kills though. This week we’ll get a team dinner to finish the collection.
