Day one of Spring Arena is done and, as expected, MarineKing's fists are bloodiest, though not everything went as expected.
There was one surprise during the first half of round robin play and that was how much the event played out like an episode of Wacky Races. The players traded games without much rhyme or reason, one player beating the other but just as soon losing to the next. MKP was the only consistent performer, winning all three series he played. Finding a pattern to explain this unexpected hurly burly may be impossible, but it also may be unnecessary. What can be more entertaining than witnessing a complete failure of the logic of prediction? Anything can happen when you enter the Twilight Zone, and these guys are definitely tiptoeing the line.
