This reality is just one of infinite realities existing alongside this one in parallel. Take us over to one of those realities in which everything is the same but these S52 playoffs have unfolded differently. What happened in that reality's playoffs and who's in the Challenge Cup over there?

I mean I'm gonna sound like a Broken record here but in the alternate universe the DBC reigns supreme over the Steelhawks. Since Buffalo did our bidding for us, we would beat SFP on route to the finals who Prince Devitt is about to beat Jeff Kirkstone in their nearby matchup in Dublin and then face Joe Turncoat in NOLA and hit another 1916 to give him another concussion and hopefully he'll consider retirement after that. And then bashing the Steelhawks in a Sweep as they'll be shutout every game with Waters, Hallsy and Aaron Wilson all whining and bitching and scrambling to rig the sim but unfortunately they can't use all their exploits, which leads them being banned into SHL Dark hole. This would be a great way to the end the Simon T. Era as the one of the more prestigious franchises and one of the best stables in the SHL Universe in the Dragons Bullet Club.

You're put in charge of making the casino odds on the Cup winner for next season. Whom are you giving the best and the worst odds to, and what's your reasoning?

3-1 for the Manhattan Rage & 15-1 for the Hamilton Steelhawks. Why cause the Steelhawks will be back to mediocrity as they scramble to find a way to exploit the FHM System as their team will spend 24 hours a day (somehow don't know how that's possible) to exploit and change it to another sim once they don't get their way in the first season. In which they will, the Manhattan Rage are the defending champs therefore they will have the best odds at 3-1. It's only fair they've scratched and clawed this season and put team on notice throughout the regular season and of course in these playoffs that they are ready to start making constant trips to the playoffs. After a long gap of Finals appearances, the Rage heading up fending the formerly known Portland Admirals who are now the San Francisco Pride in the Finals a little deja vu from S34, many moons ago.

By now, you're probably familiar with the attributes on FHM, and you likely have some sense of what type of build you're going to be aiming for with your player. What one attribute are you going to focus on most? Of all the attributes in the game, what is your player going to strive to be the absolute best at? Why are you picking that specific attribute above all others?

Defensive read will priority for me as Devitt will be a Shutdown defencemen going forward for the Calgary Dragons. A specialized Penalty Kill who lays the body and blocks shots at a premium. Having Defensive Read at a high will sort things for Devitt with extensive sim testing from GM Esa and the tweaking of my build is still continuing and eventually we'll find out what will make it a consistent build in key situations. The first season will be a test period for sure, and the season goes Devitt will be more and more comfortable in this new environment facing new opponents on the ice and in the ring.

The Most Generic Prompt of All Time - what is your player looking forward to in the offseason? What are they planning on doing? Training? Relaxing? Testing free agency? Whatever it is, let us know!

Prince Devitt is very low key with what he does in the off-season, as whenever he speaks it's very rare and the SFP Imperium picked up on that after laid an open challenge to anybody in the SHL after his win over Joe K aka Joe Turncoat. They were able to use the numbers game against Prince Devitt take him out with two of their members in Brogen and Piotr taking him out. So he's currently training for that match along with being in LA leaving out there, doing some business regarding his private life as well as training in the LA Dojo. A lot of sources are seeing Prince Devitt with Hollywood actress Vanessa Hudgens as they have been seen together eating dinner at a fine dining restaurant. Devitt & Vanessa have been reached to comment about this but haven't responded back. But Current Bullet Club Member & a close friend to the Prince in Tama Tonga says those are two very "close" friends. So we'll see if anything develops between those two.

Welp, you waited until the last day to grind out your CW and the CC finals are longggggggg over by now. congrats to [TEAM], woo! Reflecting back on the series, who gets your vote for series MVP? Make the case why this player deserves it over any other.

Luke Thomason, mainly cause he's probably the best player on the Rage who have won the Challenge Cup over the Pride. He's also a quality guy, who has a great podcast with Rich, a Flyers fan (even though they eliminated the Leafs from the playoffs in the Leafs last 2nd Round apperance, sad but true) and a great rep as the face of the Rage after I've left. It was great to see them win a Challenge Cup after a long wait of building a team with many changes except for JayWhy cause that guy will never leave the Rage brass like Esa & Wasty two other great GMs in the West. Luke just being a great guy should garner him Series MVP alone.
