We Took Week 1 — The Alchemists Are Off to a Strong Start in the Boss Fighters Tournament

Week 1 of the Boss Fighters x Arena DAO preseason tournament just wrapped up—and The Alchemists came out on top.

SciFiHigh, GorillaQuipster, jgnet, omiage, and Merlin The Alchemist played their hearts out and secured the win! It's a solid start, but this is just the beginning.

The tournament runs for 4 weeks, and there's more on the line than just bragging rights:

  • $1,000 prize pool spread across the month

  • Exclusive Boss Fighters assets

  • And for the top guild overall? A custom guild skin

Each match is best of three:

  • Match 1: our Fighters vs the enemy Boss

  • Match 2: we swap roles

  • If it's tied, a coin flip decides who plays what in the final round

All matches are livestreamed, promoted on socials, and clipped into highlights—so the hype is real.

We're going up against some strong guilds too: VIG, BTW, NEST, CWG, Kraken Gaming, and FAM.

Week 2 kicks off this Sunday at 2 PM UTC. We'll be back in the arena, looking to defend our spot at the top!
