Katara vs. Alex - Round of 16! (Patreon)

Let the Round of 16 begin! After a brutal opening round, half of the field has been sent packing, and we’re down to the best 16 ticklers. The rules remain the same for our girls, but there’s just one difference – they’re all crazy! I’d rather get in a cage with a hungry tiger. And at the end, only 8 survivors can return for the Quarter-Finals. It's time to turn up the tickles!

We kick things off with the defending champion and #1 seed Katara, who steps into the Tickle Zone for the first ever rematch with #16 seed Alex!

Katara breezed through the first round with an 81% victory, the strongest of all our winners, and remains undefeated with a 5-0 record. But if she wants to continue her win streak, she’ll have to go through Alex, who she only narrowly beat last season by a tiebreak vote in her first ever tickle fight. But a lot has changed since then, and Katara is easily twice as powerful and more dangerous than ever before. More wins, more skills, more experience. The champ has never been stronger!

Meanwhile, Alex only just managed to pick up her first ever tournament victory, taking the win against her friend Clover. Alex thinks she’s ready for this rematch, but deep down you can bet she’s nervous about facing off against the ultimate Tickle Champion, and that could affect her performance. If Alex loses this one, you can bet the consequences will be severe.
