Direct Misfire Nights: CoK 2022 wrap up and results
Sunday Jan 23, 2022
Sunday Jan 23, 2022
Hark, doth thine ears deceive? That's right, 3 episodes in one week! (take this as an apology for not releasing anything at the end of last year)
It's been a long 2 days with the lads having participated in the Australian Clash of Kings 2022 tournament. Now that it's done and dusted, join them as they briefly recount their games, discuss some highlights and compare their predictions from the previous episode.
Once again this is a "Nights" episode so editing is minimal, volume levels are a bit all over the place (hopefully it's not too bad), and the profanity sky rockets. Anyone with sensitive ears best avoid.
Otherwise, Enjoy!
Ps: we discuss a YouTube channel in this episode. Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfCORDh_gubyKjuWpJTo6QQ
