 2018 Commonwealth Champions 

England
1st title
gollark: This is my first experiment; if it goes non-terribly I might run more with random cheap AP stuff. It's nice having a resource for them which isn't pointlessly censored.
gollark: Yes, as that will happen occasionally given enough runs.
gollark: At least I'll probably get a purple siyat out of mine if it goes badly.
gollark: I imagine it was cave-caught, so I'll just refresh around xx:00 and xx:05.
gollark: _doesn't_
