You asked for it, we're bringing it to you... the round 2 leaderboard. And look who's on top - none other than the Oracle Queen herself, kawaiifan. She's been pretty quiet so far this season, but she jumped 10 spots when Kirby beat Tidus and now is looking to make the overall leaderboard as well. Second place is cyko, who's currently fifth on the overall leaderboard. Third is Alanna, who's been doing pretty well at her goal of beating King Morgoth and myself. StopPokingMe is fourth in round 2 and Garsha is fifth.
