Players Surpass CZ’s TR Record

While cz0402 was the first person to reach 24.9k rounded Tetra Rating, two players have since managed to reach this milestone as well and also surpass cz’s tr.

Last weekend, FireStorm went on a rampage, first going 70-5 (sets) against top players, then winning sets for 6 hours straight on stream. The 30 winstreak they ultimately amassed pushed them over 24.9k TR and past cz!

Blaarg has since followed suit and begun terrorizing the ladder, and after FireStorm dropped under cz, he currently stands as the #1 player on the Tetra League leaderboards. Well played, both!
