On last year's tournament the first knock-out round went as follows:

Rivendell won Valimar in a shoot-out
TIG beat Mordor in a thriller

Formenos overran Amon Rhûdh
Nargothrond lost scandalously to Túna

Gondolin beat Umbar
Armenelos had it easy with Doriath

Hithlum crushed Mirkwood
Angband gave no chance to Fornost

Only Túna managed to beat the odds being the second best of it's own group and beating the number one of another group.

The teams were a bit different then - a lot different on some accounts, like trading the whole forward-trio of Formenos (Aredhel, Maedhros, Fëanor) to Hithlum for this season - but one does well to remember those times as well...

How did it continue?

Well, the teams advancing to the quarter-finals last year were TIG, Formenos, Armenelos and Hithlum.
