I may not have followed this closely enough, but I just learned that the top 8 (which means winners of the first round) will be available in game for free-flight in the first week of September. This will definitively affect how I will vote in the first round!

I’ll let you look at the full match up on the official page, here are some that I thought were interesting:

Today is Fury vs Arrow: I have no doubt that the Arrow will win, but I voted Fury because I want to try it in game.

Reclaimer vs Vulture: Big vs Small. The Vulture was iconic this year with the new mechanics, but the Reclaimer is bigger which is always a win in my book!

Terrapin vs Carrack: Sorry Terrapin, you don’t stand a chance!

Corsair vs Mercury: Hmm, hard choice. I love the look of the Mercury, but the Corsair is a crowd favourite!

Connie vs Cutty Black: The Connie is always underappreciated, it’s an awesome ship. I know Drake is popular, but it was never my style. I think the Cutty will win.

400i vs 600i: Bigger is better? Doing a ship showdown during the free-flight will be interesting!

Cutter vs 890 Jump: Both ends of the ship spectrum. The Cutter should win ship of the year because it’s an awesome starter, and we need new players to have fun. But considering the free flight, I’ll vote 890 just so I have a chance to free-fly it!

I know it doesn't have a chance, but the Fury would be a cool winner!

Today moved on to the Scorpius VS Redeemer.

Redeemer seems a clear winner, but it's pretty close atm.

I had lots of fun with the Redeemer before the last wipe, it gets my vote!

I think I'm rooting for the Corsair this time!
