Fresh off the emotional high of the Texas Crown victory over the
Baltimore Texas
, the
Ft. Worth Piano Tuners
entered the Hellmouth Cup seriels with a swagger that their code couldn't support. They expected the East Coast
Alewife Arsonists
to be intimidated by the swaggering team that had slain the
Long Beach Flightless Birds
, the ultimate West Coast titans. Instead, Alewife yawned loudly, in their face. Then they tore them to pieces.
The
Alewife Arsonists
treated the
Ft. Worth Piano Tuners
= like kindling. Using a Flash Oven formation, they rapidly heated the grid, causing spontaneous combustion in the Tuners' static blocks. The entire Tuners formation went up in a flurry of pops, like popcorn kernels tossed into a flash pan. The Tuners bounced back in Game 2, with the Tuners utilizing the heaviest, wettest formations they could muster to smother the Arsonists - but it only worked for one game. The Arsonists lit a high-entropy fire in Game 3, slow-roasted the Tuners in Game 4, and starved them of oxygen in Game 5, taking home the crown and leaving the Tuners choking and coughing in the smoking remains of their season.
