Hey guys! We deciced to upload the WR1 victory themes separately- we're currently hard at work on the next two rounds, as we want to do them back to back. Stockpiling art, writing, and, of course, music is hard, but we're taking strides to do so. We hope you look forward to CHANCE's future.
Have a good one!

Track by: Etroup

10 - Tourist Trap (THE GLASS-EYED CHARLATAN)
A screen is like a window, showing views of worlds beyond,
Such as a gambler's city, lights aglow with swaying fronds,
Whisper a wish into the dust and he'll grant it, some say,
But what happens in paradise, in paradise it stays.

T̲h̲e̲i̲r̲ g̲u̲i̲d̲a̲n̲c̲e̲ s̲o̲u̲r̲c̲e̲s̲ a̲r̲e̲:
- Money, marketing, and predatory monetization tactics
- Indie pop, and psychedelic pop/rock/imagery
- The tropics and deserts/wastelands
- The night, lights, magic and specific locations
- Gambling/chance, debauchery, common vices or wishes, and what stays in Vegas
B̲u̲t̲ t̲̲h̲e̲y̲ c̲̲a̲n̲ d̲̲o̲ m̲̲u̲c̲h̲, m̲̲u̲c̲h̲, m̲̲o̲r̲e̲.

XX - IMAGINARY GF (LICENSED FROM DTD)
A figment of a lonely mind, a glass better half full,
Torn away from her dearest by reality's harsh pull,
With a selfhood betrothed to someone she has truly lost,
Ideal identity must be forged at a steady cost.

What I Really Feel

AUTOPSY REPORT

DECEDENT: N/A
CAUSE OF D̶E̶A̶T̶H̶ PUNISHMENT: Rule Breaking

In the tournament match between "Rose n' Rag" and Chester B. Lampester, the Lamp had challenged his two opponents to a battle to determine who could move on to the next match. Despite initial confusion, it became increasingly clear that only one team could move on from the match, and casualties had to occur. After a short interruption from 丂꒟闩丁丁乇尺乇问, the battle went on and on, and..
(Ahem)
Yeah, let's just cut to the chase here. Hey! I'm not usually the one writing these "autopsy reports" or whatever they're choosing to call them; Believe me, you would *know* if I had been writing them. Buuuut.. Well, let's just say this little guy's plan didn't exactly go as smoothly as he had hoped. After being properly defeated by both Rose and Rag, the two were hesitant to actually finish him off.. How thoughtful, right? They thought they could, well.. Try forming a truce, in a way. Despite his initial reaction, he slowly came to realize that maybe.. killing wasn't the way to go here? 
Puhuhuhu.. Big mistake, buddy. There aren't many rules on this island; I'm happy to just let everyone go ham, really, but.. "Fusions, Parasitic Transfers, or any other form of teaming up between contestants is strictly prohibited." Hear that? Looks like somebody's broken the rules..! Ah, I'm sure you all are just DYING to hear what happened. Luckily for you, I've got it all recorded in this handy little Google Doc below. Happy reading...!

Yours truly,
Alphakuma.

The Midnight Hour - FIXATION FUSION

Wow, 70 votes total! That's almost as much as Queen Vs Habit's total, not bad for my first match solo! Thank you all for tuning in by the way, I get that this project is moreso finished these days, but I felt guilty not letting these close-cut combatants shine before we officially close up shop. I'm glad you liked them as much as the final roster, maybe in another life, they'd have made it to the real party... 

Anywho, who's our final lucky winner?
