Tie Breakers
Divisional Winner
There was no dispute on the Chamberlain Conference side of things, as Squirtle Squad and Fat Jubas clearly took their divisions. Congratulations to Brian and Eric-L. Over on the Russell Conference side, the picture was a lot cloudier.

Five teams had 8-4 records and we had to go to multiple tie-breakers to determine both divisional winners and wild card entrants. First, over on the Voltron division, The Horizon and MoRRie's Pogiboys were tied in Overall and H2H records. Division record went to The Horizon, as Thien was 5-2 in their division while Alvin's team was 4-3 versus the rest of the Voltron. Voltron winner: The Horizon

On the Thundercats side, three teams were tied at 8-4. The H2H record among all three teams was this: Chunky Monkeys and 100 Acre Wood Heffalumps both went 3-1 while NJ All-Stars went 0-4, eliminating them from the divisional championship. After that, the Monkeys and Heffalumps tied for their personal H2H, moving us to divisional records. Evan won out with a 5-1 intra-divisonal record, while Jose was only 4-2. Thundercats winner: Chunky Monkeys

Between The Horizon and Chunky Monkeys, Thien won their only matchup for the year, giving his squad the #1 playoff seed.

Playoff Wild Cards
This leaves Jose, Alvin, and Eddie to battle it out for two wild card slots. After tying in Overall Record, the rules state we move on to H2H record between the three teams. 100 Acre Wood Heffalumps secures one of the wild card slots based on their 3-0 record (NJ All-Stars went 1-2 and Pogiboys 0-2). With Jose taken care of, we reset tie-breakers.

The NJ All-Stars then secures the other wildcard spot based on their H2H record versus Pogiboys, an epic 9-0-0 win in WK1.

The Heffalumps get the higher seed over NJ All-Stars because of their superior 2-0 head-to-head record between the two of them.

Toilet Bowl Tie-Breaks
No big problems here, with only Funk Coalition and So Buckets tied at 3-9 but with the tie-break going to Jon for his lone H2H win versus Josh.
