Check out the Worlds 2015 Star Wars Armada finals

 

In honor of the release of The Force Awakens, and mostly because not many of you are home to read this, here is another video. This time it’s the final match from the Worlds 2015 Star Wars Aramada Championship. Not much more explanation needed here. Just sit back and enjoy the show. And may the force be with you.

 

PS. I won’t be able to see the movie until Sunday (hopefully). So please, no spoilers. Thanks!
