Tempo Storm moved into first place after the third match Friday, and all they've done since is add to their lead.

But they weren't the only ones to make noise Saturday.

After ending Friday with a victory, Simplicity carried the momentum into Saturday by recording an 11-kill victory in the first match:

Then, it was Shoot to Kill's turn to make moves on the leaderboard. That's when the crew of aLOW, PurdyKurty, Adam and Uncivil dropped a 16-spot en route to victory in Match 2:

As Why Tempt Fate pointed out, Sharky has played a major role in helping Tempo Storm maintain its hold on first place: 

Shoot to Kill had a chance for another victory in the final match, but Team Envy pulled one out instead:

Even without that victory, it was quite the day for Shoot to Kill.

After entering Day 4 in fifth place with 83 total points, Shoot to Kill put up a whopping 51 points behind the strength of 33 kill points. That helped them move into second place overall and cut Tempo Storm's lead to 24 points.

Phase 1 will continue with Week 3 on Feb. 15 and 16.
