This has been the closest matchup in the entire tournament; neither piece has been ahead by more than 1.
Feux Follets is currently winning, but I can absolutely see this being a tie.
Update: Feux Follets pulls ahead!
I honestly thought that Scarbo would win the whole tournament, but it seems like it might actually be going out round 1.
