Here are the updated results of Round 5 of the Dev Kit Developer's league. The point total is the product of your average score plus your average margin of victory/defeat multiplied by your winning percentage. So if you didn't win a game, your score is zero. But don't worry. Only your best 15 games count toward your final score, so there is plenty of time for everyone to rise to the top of the leaderboard. The more you play, the better your chances of qualifying for the tournament of champions in November.

The PG Dev Kit Tournament at Jet City Retro started as any other, the developers arrived slowly and played a few games to warm up while waiting for the tourney to begin. The tourney continued as groups of three were chosen at random and games began to go gold. The first round was played and the developers were shuffled into new groups to start all over again, continuing on in the fight to the final table. After some close calls and a few surprises, the final table was set and the last three developers started their epic game. The last developers standing were all Dev Kit League regulars, PG's own Elder Taragan, Steve Moos, and Donald Tidd. Check out the picture below to see the serious faces of the final table of developers and find out who took home an uncut sheet of Dev Kit cards!

Elder Taragan, Steve and Donald prepare to start the game that will decide who takes home 1 of only 10 uncut sheets of Dev Kit cards!

The first game started as the 3 developers begin to throw around some friendly insults in the name of good fun, to keep the atmosphere calm. The game shifted slightly more serious as games went gold and points were tallied, while each developer tried to edge out a crucial first victory. The game came to a close as Elder Taragan drew first blood and firmly secured his place as one of the Leagues best players! Steve and Donald show no remorse as the second game is started, each trying to stop Elder Taragan from wining the game and the tourney. The atmosphere turns in Elder Taragan's favor as he seems to almost draw the cards he needs on to the table during his turns.

The event turns serious as the second game starts, all three players concentrate on the game at hand.

As the second game came to a close, the winner is clearly Elder Taragan! Having swept the final table with 2 wins in a row, he has shown his ability to outplay even the best the league has to offer. Steve and Donald shared second place, still holding their heads high having defeated a lot of Dev Kit League regulars to get to the final table. As the tourney came to its official end, Elder Taragan was presented with 1 of 10 uncut sheets of Dev Kit cards and proudly displayed them with the score sheets from the match. As Jet City Retro came to an end, all the developers had a wonderful time playing lots of Dev Kit and saw a lot of great classic games as well. The uncut sheet of Dev Kit cards was safely returned to the vault inside PG Seattle, where the Elders will continue to keep it secure until the next time it may be up for grabs. With the prize for winning the Dev Kit Developers League finals still to be announced, anything is possible.

That's one happy Elder Taragan!
