===Round Three===
*'''Alabriss Bracket'''
Round Three was both a blessing and a curse for some teams. While [[Mystery Island]] was proving to be a serious threat to all the teams in the competition, they faced stiff opposition from other powerhouses, such as [[Krawk Island]] and [[Meridell]]. [[Kiko Lake]], also in this bracket, had made it known that they weren't to be taken lightly. Which left the two remaining bottom-dwellers, [[Terror Mountain]] and [[Faerieland]] to survive on their own. While Mystery Island and Meridell each dominated the competition, leaving Krawk Island in the dust, Kiko Lake had slowed down even more considerably. Faerieland, who had been swept in almost every round of competition thus far, only pulled off a single win against Kiko Lake. Terror Mountain's results were very lackluster, but as other teams have been able to do so, Terror Mountain made quick work of Faerieland and swept them as well. Both Mystery Island and Meridell steamrolled the other teams in the process, hardly losing more than one side game at most. As a result, the two were fighting it out for the top spot, which was totally in the air at the time. Krawk Island, though unable to defeat these top two threats, their matchups against the lower teams ended considerably well. The results saw Meridell just inching out ahead of Mystery Island, who came in 2nd. Krawk Island slid comfortably into 3rd, while Kiko Lake's decreasing momentum placed them in 4th. Terror Mountain, with the clear advantage of Faerieland, came in 5th, while the Faerieland team saw themselves in last once again.

*'''Minitheus Bracket'''
This bracket was more of a mixed bag than the other two. This bracket was composed of [[Lost Desert]], who performed well in the last two rounds, mid-packers [[Tyrannia]], [[Brightvale]], and [[Virtupets]], and bottom-dwellers [[Altador]] and [[Moltara]]. Altador got the round going with a great surprise, drawing Lost Desert in Yooyuball in an effort to raise their position. After this, Altador was still able to pluck minimal wins here and there, even winning Yooyuball against Moltara. Lost Desert had very impressive results, despite their shaky start at Altador's hand. Virtupets, Brightvale, and Tyrannia too were each able to meet them even in Yooyuball, but their side game skill was an important component in their victories. Tyrannia lacked sweeping material, but they too were fairly evenly matched with Lost Desert. Brightvale proved to be a tough bug to squash, holding their own very well against the primary threats of Lost Desert and Tyrannia. each Though the two matches between Brightvale and Virtupets both ended in a Virtupets victory, as the Brightvale team's results against the powerhouses of this bracket were stronger, Virtupets sank to mediocrity. Moltara's results  were very similar to that of Altador's, plucking wins here and there that proved to be enough to keep up with their rivals. The results had the Lost Desert easily on top, while Tyrannia hung on for 2nd. Brightvale's impressive results against more powerful teams landed them 3rd, while Virtupets, unable to keep up with the demand, finished 4th. Moltara edged out Altador for 5th, leaving Altador in last for the third time in a row.

*'''Vaeolus Bracket'''
The third bracket of the third round was very similar with the Alabriss Bracket, composed of powerhouses, midrunners, and bottom-dwellers. The powerhouses to be watched out for were [[Kreludor]] and [[Darigan Citadel]], who were in 1st and 3rd overall, respectively. The middle-dwellers, in 8th and 9th overall, were [[Maraqua]] and [[Roo Island]], respectively. Finally we had our bottom-dwellers, two teams that have seen very little luck, [[Haunted Woods]] and [[Shenkuu]]. Kreludor got to sweeping right from the get-go, sweeping their first four opponents, Shenkuu, Haunted Woods, and Maraqua twice. Finally, Kreludor's perfect Yooyuball record was stopped by Darigan Citadel in a valiant effort. However, alongside that match ending in a draw, Kreludor still managed to side-sweep. Aside from that one match, Darigan Citadel's matchups went strong, defeating almost all who stood in their way, though not to the same extent as Kreludor. Haunted Woods's fight started incredibly shaky, losing hard to Roo Island and being side-swept by Shenkuu. However, their resistance to being swept to anyone but Roo Island and Kreludor gave them a little push in the right direction. On the other hand, Roo Island, despite sweeping twice against Haunted Woods, fared terribly in other matches, as did Shenkuu. Maraqua pulled ahead of Roo Island in this sense, managing to take some wins despite being swept twice by Kreludor. The results had Kreludor easily in 1st and Darigan Citadel easily in 2nd. Maraqua swam up to 3rd, while Haunted Woods defied expectations and landed a 4th place finish. Roo Island took a disappointing 5th place finish, while Shenkuu was thrown back down to last.
