Better Than You

The Black Pteri has been a contestant on Better Than You twice:

Game: Pterattack
Score: 5,000
Prize: The Pteri Champion


Date: January 19, 2012 Evil is coming! The Pterodactyls are merely the first harbingers of the utter destruction of Neopia. You are too pitiful to defeat them, but I will help you... for now.
Game: Pterattack
Score: 2,370
Prize: Forbidden Pteri Tales
