Buzzy Cohen[]

  • After beating (Andrew Pau) a champion who had more than 5 wins in a row to become the new champion, they had 9 wins in a row[1].
  • Both of them were suspended for a month in defensive battles during their tenure. Buzzy due to the annual tournament and Ben due to health problems.
  • When they got off, they handed over their seat to the women champion. Unlike the challenger who beat Ben, the challenger who beat Buzzy had two consecutive wins.
  • In the ToC semifinals, he faced the contestant who defeated the super champion, and Ben faced two people.

Cris Pannullo[]

  • They beat the contestant who was confirmed to advance to ToC and became the new champion.
  • In the case of Cris 4-game winning streak champion, Ben beat the 8-game winning streak champion.
  • They both won all game 1-4.
  • During the winning streak, the defensive battle was postponed for nearly a month. The difference is that Cris is deferred (some tournaments) and Ben is voluntary (health problems).

  • Both left on Tuesday and maintained the number one position until before the last FJ!, and both dropped off at Shakespeare-themed FJ[2].

  1. For reference, Ben's previous champion, Hannah Wilson, had two opponents advance to ToC (SC and CWC winner - Juveria Zaheer and three-time champion Kevin Belle).
  2. Another champion that falls into this case is James Holzhauer. However, this is the last FJ! There is a difference that I was in second place before and got the correct answer.
