The First Round of our Vite Vault Vote is OVER!!!

Who Survived Round 1? Who fights for one last chance?

Bracket 1: Radiant Yuzu Crab Riêu vs Beefy French Onion Soup

Last time, on Vite Vault Vote:

A single vote had separated these two flavors, and neither side could break away. But after the update email was sent out, the Crab people banded together with newfound strength, rallying to push Crab ahead into a comfortable lead with votes and boosts alike. Yet, French Onion Soup held its boost cards in reserve, biding its time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Then, at the eleventh hour, when Crab became complacent with its lead, French Onion's faction unleashed a frenzy of boost cards in a surge that tore through Crab Riêu in a surprise attack.

Crab stumbled, and fell, and French Onion Soup stood triumphant, ahead by two votes as the final minutes ticked down...

And yet, the Crab faithful saw it happen. They watched, and perhaps anticipated the last minute ambush, and scrambled--

2 votes came in.

Then 2 french onion soup votes, tying the match.

One minute to go.

And 2 more again...

And 2 more again...

And with a stunning final back and forth, Crab claws back the desperate vote clawing back the victory with just FOUR votes!

Radiant Yuzu Crab Riêu wins, 210 to French Onion’s 206. French Onion Soup falls to the lower bracket.

But if this week’s new secret rule was there, perhaps French Onion might’ve been able to clutch the victory... Find out the new secret rule on the voting page!

 
Bracket 2: Vegan Japanese Curry vs Shrimp Panang Curry

Japanese Curry walked into this fight, a veteran returning flavor, yet quiet and unassuming. Panang Curry threw boost cards into the fight, trying to claw back ground that Japanese Curry's popular vote kept swallowing, but to no avail. The gap widened hour after hour, relentless and mechanical, as Japanese Curry ground Panang down step by unforgiving step.

Japanese Curry only needed a single boost card for its victory. Everything else was popular support, an avalanche of believers who showed up for the flavor they’d loved, and fought with quiet efficiency to a solid first round victory in the battle of curry.

Vegan Japanese Curry wins, 177 to Shrimp Curry’s 161. Shrimp Panang Curry falls to the lower bracket.

Bracket 3: Vegan Spicy Sesame Tantanmen vs Coconut Curry Laksa

Tantanmen's faction detonated the largest boost card war chest in the tournament's history to open the battle... and never paused its ferocious momentum. Against this onslaught, Coconut Curry Laksa faltered, and each time it seemed like the tide would subside, Tantanmen’s backers roared back onto the field with even more crushing boost cards.

Even on the last day of round 1, with the most votes out of every bracket and the most commanding lead, Tantanmen’s followers dropped yet another boost, putting Coconut Curry Laksa out of its misery.

Vegan Spicy Sesame Tantanmen wins, 268 to Laksa’s 131. Coconut Curry Laksa falls to the lower bracket.

Bracket 4: Hearty Beef "Bo Kho" vs Vegan Tomato Basil Bisque

Bisque drew first blood with an early boost card surge that seized the lead and dared Bo Kho to answer. Yet, Bo Kho was a veteran, having won its own battle of the Beef long ago to gain the right to become a new flavor. None of the newcomer’s boosts were powerful enough to overcome that legacy, and Bo Kho effortlessly crashed through Bisque’s defenses, despite Bisque deploying 400% more boost cards than Bo Kho.

The highest popular vote in the tournament, Bo Kho showed exactly why it had won the Battle of the Beef, and stood triumphant.

Hearty Beef "Bo Kho" wins, 203 to Tomato Bisque’s 154. Vegan Tomato Basil Bisque falls to the lower bracket.
