After the embarrassing showing of Rainbow/Season 12, the 
Alewife Arsonists
were no longer playing to win: they were playing to burn everything to the ground. The aura in the Concrete Cathedral was deafening, the noise cranked up, the horrid screeching of train wheels on the steel tracks shook the entire stadium. The Arsonists used erratic, ugly, violent patterns to take the league by storm.
The Arsonists lit everyone up in the Championship Series, going on a tear for the last 3 games to nail the coffin shut. (The remaining teams were left with so few rainbows that it caused a technical dispute between the 
Louisville Illusionists
and the 
Jersey OSHA Violations
for the second Rainbow Cup spot.) But when the Arsonists got to the Rainbow Cup series, they poured gasoline over everything: they ripped through 4 straight games with first-place finishes, left the Louisville Illusionists
and 
Sacramento Boot Lickers
in the dust, and handily overpowered the 
Vegas Vampires
in the final stretch to win the series with 72🌈 (second-most all time).
The mysterious Brake Master Cylinder described the victory as an act of cosmic vandalism. The beautiful, orderly spectrum of the Rainbow Cup had converged to a single, saturated color: shuttle-bus red #ff1717. The chaotic dancing patterns the Arsonists had employed were turned into posters, murals, tattoos, and billboards. In the final victory parade with the Rainbow Cup, the Arsonists didn't just hoist the cup: they scoured it, etching their cosmic vandalism into the face of the Cup. The intense, dominant, rapid victory of the Arsonists in the Season 13 Rainbow Cup series came to be known as the Rainbow Burn.
