CWC 2022 Candidates Stage

There was little movement during the last week, but Fumitoks maintained his undefeated streak, with a 6-4 comeback win against Mugwort, after being down 1-3 during the early stages of the match.

As the schedule for this stage draws close to the final rounds, I will be sending private messages to candidates to encourage them to complete prior rounds.
