What advantage did the winner have?
This was a much improver Duchesses! The walls were solid, defense was together, and there was strategy. A giant step since Beast.

What did the losing team do really well?
The agility of the skaters after less than a year with MTLRD was terrific. Greatness does rub off.

Approximately ten minutes into the bout.
