welcome everybody to round one of the inaugural Crafters Cup. Um, few days have passed now, many submissions were given, uh, super excited about that, and, uh, by and large, they were submitted properly. We've ended up with quite the competition on our hands here, guys. Uh, you can see here we had 67, uh, submissions that were applicable, that were done properly, and so the, uh, tree has been randomized, the brackets for the competition have been randomized through this website, and matchups have been placed. Uh, since we have, um, you know, 64 would have been the perfect amount, uh, but because there's 67, you can see, uh, there are three matchups that are going to be going down here first off that we'll be doing today in today's video. Uh, and as well, I'll be doing, uh, we'll showcase some of the items of the people who did not, uh, submit their template properly. There were a few rules. Um, I don't think that the people that didn't follow those rules were doing so maliciously. However, rules are rules, and

so uh some people had to have their entries disqualified, and so I'm going to go through and show you some of these now. Just some of the submissions that came through that unfortunately will not be able to participate in the cash prize competition, but who likely still deserve, you know, their fair shout out here for throwing an item in on the entry. So, uh, first here we see osq. He's got his Rapture Crest hubis circl here, and you can see I'm just going to read the part where it says, What makes this item special to you? The intention was just to add eldritch implicits and sell it for more quickly. I realized that it's influenced, so I can't any more desired implicits. So, like any normal human, I went to double corrupt it and hit probably the best two oomes, which I think is hilarious and cool. So, osq had to be disqualified because he did not submit within the correct time window. Here we've got Jay. Jay was

disqualified because he submitted multiple times. Um, and the reason why this item was special for him, the best craft. Uh, this is the best craft I made. Didn't take much time and effort to finish it. I really enjoy the process, and now crafting is my favorite thing to do. I enjoy a lot of crafting. So you can see he's got a nice astral plate there with the influence. Here we've got Mike HR with our first meme item. Um, Mike Mike did end up verifying this but wasn't able to do so in time. The item was not verified, that's why there was a DQ here. Um, what makes this item special, it required a great deal of Moxy to obtain such an item as this. Uh, we've got Mino baby. Um, what makes this item special to me, it's the first item that I crafted using more than just fossils, specifically tailored to my needs. Nice little chest there. Uh, the reason again why Mino was, uh, DCed on this entry is because the item was not verified. Uh, Jix, uh, Jix, uh, is one of the

most prolific alt-art collectors in the game. I'm sure this would have actually done quite well in the competition, but unfortunately J's account was not public, and that was one of the rules, so Jix was disqualified for that reason. But you can see here, he has it is the only purely shaper dusk Dawn in all of Poe, and that is the alt-art. I assume there, pretty interesting, but unfortunately J Jix was DQd for not having a public profile. We got Admiral General, he's got a squire here with an interesting Crucible Tree on that. One of a Kind Crucible tree was his reason for submitting. He admitted later on in the thing that he actually sold the shield. So that obviously was no longer able to be verified, so he's disqualified for that reason. We got Wallup, again, same reason as most of the other guys, it was not verified, but this was the first Simplex he ever found and the

first mirror tier worthy craft he's ever done. Looks like he's got a nice little string stacker amulet there. Uh, we got General Bond here. Uh, General Bond's submission was actually too large to fit into a screen. Um, however, you can check that out on the thread there. Um, but again, this was disqualified for not being verified, but it looks like you got uh, nice, nice ton of es there, uh, regen 5 when you block strength and int, uh, Max Fire Res there, nice little Shield. Uh, we got evil Mr. Fry here. Um, this was disqualified because it was not submitted the correct way. Uh, as I mentioned, you have to link the items, you can't just send screenshots. Uh, but what makes this item special to him, this is easily the most expensive item I've ever owned in my near decade of playing the game, and I've had to drop it myself with an indescribable feeling. This is also the first item I've ever deemed worthy of using locks on to hit a corrupted implicit. It's a nice little that which.

was taken and we're back to the beginning. So those were all of the ones that were, uh, disqualified guys. Um, and, uh, we're now moving on to the ones that were, um, competing in the first round of the competition here. Uh, so you can see here because we've got the round of 64, we have to, uh, we had, and we had 67 entries. You can see here we've got, uh, Neier and Griny, the winner of which will move on to play Sideways Stair. Then we've got Tack Nar and JK, the winner of which will go on to play Terr and, uh, Indead and Belgian Legend, the winner of which will go on to play Amiriam. Uh, I will link the, uh, you guys can actually access this website to follow along with this. It'll also be on the Discord thread. Um, the Discord also will be linked below with the voting. Voting will open as soon as I post this video. Um, one thing to take note of as well is that, uh, the numbers that are, um, listed here, the

first number that you see the gray uh is just the random sorting that the website used to uh put people into a place uh the numbers that you see after that have the bracket closing on them that's the post number that it is on the um on the Forum thread so if you wanted to say look at Kaiser xyz's item he's got see how he's got 22 that would mean that it's the 22 22nd post uh posted item on the uh the crafter cup Forum thread in case you want to investigate any of these items further but for today's video uh we are just just covering the ones that uh that were disqualified for not following the rules of the competition so we just went over those and now we're going to be covering the first three head-to-head competitions here uh which we will now go through so the first one we've got uh griny uh griny here's his item here we got the Wrath Ren Reaver ax take a look at that and uh answer to

his question uh why this item was important to him uh I love the archetype, but it has been lacking lately with the new transfigure gem. You can get those good P pops again. This axe lets me min-max and kill those Ubers um just for some clarity as well, guys. Once I make this live, you'll notice here that we've got item owner A nullifier and item owner B griny. We've got these guys listed up right here, and so you'll be able to come here if you want to see their full answers. They're also written here as well as a photo of their item. Item A will always refer to the first one, and B will refer to the second. Similarly, on the second one here, we've got tac tac Nar versus JC and a again versus referring to the first one and B referring to the second and similar down here. So when I make this public, if you want to vote for your winner, you just got to click react to this channel is react only so it's the only thing you

can do so just react to either A or B and uh then that is how we will determine the winner. So now for nullifiers item here, uh we've got a uh fractured life and reduced FL charges used. Um, and this was I was trying to rec combinate the two fractures together, and I was quite to see happy to see that it hit. Then I realized I also rolled the Sentinel flask mod, so this is nice. Uh, that magic utility flask have 23 increased effect, so that is uh competition one. We've got the Wrath Ren Reaver ax and The Morbid Buckle chain belt. Uh, so you can come up to here once this goes live and then react for morbid. Uh, Buckle chain belt react A for wrath Ren reever react B. All right, all right, moving on to the next two. We've got tac tac Nar. Uh, Tac tac's reply here was so long that I actually had to uh upgrade my Discord and pay $9.99 so I could uh I could upload his answer. So do give that

a read. Because this is obviously something he put a lot of thought into, uh, his helmet. Here is Sorrow Guardian Eternal Beronet with the Defiance Banner, uh, helmet enchant there. And, uh, the reason why this item is special for him at the time of crafting this was several MO for me: the most expensive, the most researched, and the most desired, to say the least. This Helm was also my first double elevated helmet ever, as well as being, uh, several most for me at the time: um, most expensive, most thoroughly researched, and most desired, all at all. It was the most fun I had, uh, through crafting up to that point, and since then I'm always looking for ways to utilize the skills I learned throughout the experience. To this day. So we've got the Sorrow Guardian Eternal Bergeret, and that is competing against Jassic 487 with the, uh, Damnation Song Synthesis Sire Ritual Scepter. Nice little explode scepter here. We got plus two fire burning damage, fire Dot, and fire damage. So the reason this is special for him

this was his first mirrored item, and biggest luck ever. You can check out the instructions there. So again, that's a competition number two. We've got the sorrow Guardian Eternal bergeret. Uh, reply A for the one if you want to vote for that, and the damnation song synthesized ritual scepter. Reply B to vote for that. So that is competition number two. Now for competition number three, and I'm familiar with this item. Uh, here we've got bloodb braid Onyx amulet. Uh, this was crafted by um, uh, iron as well as indeed back in Sentinel League. Uh, you can see here he's got the quadruple uh anointment, and he's also got the Legacy crit multi, the Legacy, uh, uh, incursion Life mod here, the Legacy quantity rule, all attributes, lightning damage flat, and IAL damage with attack skills. So the reason why this is special to him, it's one of a kind. It can only replace now if you use an OG mirror tier base since they made Recs, um, no longer work on mirrored items.

and then uh I would definitely suggest taking a look through the crafting instructions here. Uh I actually remember when this item was crafted myself so that is item number one. Uh from indeed and he is going up against Belgian Legend item number two here for the third competition. Uh we've got a triple fra cured item with tier one attack speed, tier one crit chance, Tier 1 crit multi, all of those are perfectly uh divined as well. Uh so what makes this item special to him as someone who is not very good at the game crafting wise and doesn't have a lot of time to play. I found that in the crop list I could give it a try and see if crafting something nice for myself since multif fracture was relatively easy to obtain this league. I love playing claw based builds like FB and LS in this claw while not close to mirror tier does give me a very good base for any future claw build I might want to play. The fact I made it myself it was my first decent craft for me was personally worth the entire.

league, what an awesome sentiment. Stuff like that is why I like seeing the replies here. All right, so there we go, guys. That is the final competition. We've got the Bloodbraid Onyx Amulet and the Horror Skewer Imperial Claw. To vote for the Amulet, reply A, and to vote for the Claw, reply B. So, that will bring us after we have a decision here, guys. That'll put us to a round of 64. And from there, we'll be able to narrow it down properly, much like it were March. Because this is only a half video, guys, we're going to have an 8-hour voting period on this. So, it is 12:14 p.m. on July 17th for me. So, the final time to vote on these will be 8:15 p.m. on today's date. So, I will write that in the channel here: final voting time 8:15 p.m.

July 17th, and then after that guys, after the Voting is done, and we announce the winners on those, they will move on in the bracket, uh, and then we will have our specified final round of 64, and then we'll get our next video. So, if you guys want to access this tree, you can at any time, and I'll link that below. It is change.com, thecrafting through my Discord, uh.
