Match 1
Kuadeul & Shraham vs Baxter
| Kuadeul & Shraham |
Baxter |
||||
| Kuadeul & Shraham's debut round in Crossroads! The plot was satisfying albeit the pace was somewhat slow and dialogue felt too long with not enough clarity at times. The symbolism of withering roses and discussion of grief were excellent. A very enjoyable read! |
Baxter's first official theft in Crossroads! Overall the visual style, writing, pacing, characterizations, and transitions are great-- just watch for clarify drops that can make it difficult to understand parts. A great round! | ||||

Wu, Jonathan vs Frances Davis

Frances Davis |

| A stylish entry with good expressions and special effects! However, watch for clarity issues with some visuals and try to dig deeper with dialogue. An enjoyable read! |
A clean and well-presented entry (especially with the website format). The character writing was well done, and it was clear to see that a lot of love and care went into the piece. A great read!
Unfortunately due to life circumstances Fran has dropped from further participation. We hope she can enjoy her time in Crossroads! |

| Rakurai & Aanir's very stylish first fight together in Crossroads! The plot is excellent and this is an intense and vivid read. There were some clarity issues with text and a couple panels, but the overall consistency of the piece is quite well done. |
The plot was quite interesting as the characters have a past together. The visual style is striking but can be hard to parse sometimes. There was great fun in the characters and writing, making this an exciting read! |
