Robbed:
One team which was definitely robbed going in to the ASFC championship would be the Arizona Asterisks. While the Asterisks and the Orange County Otters have played in the ASFC championship a record five times, this was the first year where the Otters were actually favored to win the Cup in the finals. Surprising everyone, in the sim of that game, the Asterisks actually blew out the Otters - doubled their trademark passing game, doubling their total offensive yardage, and shutting down their long passing game for the first time in three season. After the game was finished, however, it was discovered how the Asterisks accomplished this, in true Asterisks extra legal fashion. The Asterisks had used over eighty different formations, overwhelming the typically stout, but in no ones eyes intellectual Otters defense as a whole and their individual defenders - especially their league leading front seven defensive linemen and linebackers. While the game was resimulated after this Asterisks cheating was found by proper National Simulation Football League referees, no penalty was applied, and the Otters against Asterisks game had to be replayed for the third straight year. Truly, this is a record which the league is not proud to be continuing, however the strong rivalry between the Asterisks and the Otters continue to this day and beyond, guaranteeing extra legal action.

New Talent: Write about which S5 trade had the biggest impact in the playoffs.
The new talent this year which flooded the league will have a huge effect on the league in the years to come. During the Season four draft, the Otters traded their whole upcoming draft picks, including an envious slot at number five, for two first round picks at the end in number seven and eight overall picks. While this precluded the Otters getting their usual their range of players to enter the league, it also gave the Otters the chance to accept two highly sought out players for their team: an offensive linemen named Ryan Sierra, and the defensive back name Tegan Atwell. The first pick Ryan Sierra soon announced his upcoming change to defensive linemen, and the Otters gain two starting defensive players for their playoff run. While the season four Otters team defense was good but not exceptional, with the addition of two defensive starters to fuel the fire the defense really grew wings, as both units on each side of the ball lead the league in their own respective categories, and the Otters team as a whole earned the best record in the League, for the first year ever. The Otters would of course go on the win the Ultimus trophy, and it needed to get their the contributions of both first round picks, including the Otters exceptional front 7 players, which Sierra served to bookend as a defensive tackle.

Playoff Review: Write a short review of the playoffs and each of the matchups. Must be completed after the Championship Game
Hawks at Wraiths
This game has occurred in the last few NSFC championship games, and it is typically known to be a well balanced game where the home team typically wins in a close fight. In this years iteration, the Wraiths took the game over in the second half, piling on points which the Hawks and their start qb Blocksdale just could not recover from. Eric Kennedy, the Wraiths receiving back, torched the Hawks defense with more yards than they could handle out of the backfield, getting several big tackles broken and a few big games.
Asterisks at Otters

Wraiths at Otters
While this game should have been nominally close, as it was the meeting of two of the consensus best teams in the National Simulation Football league, the Otters and their talent across the depth chart just took this game over from start to finish. Eric Kennedy finally had a rival in TJ Yates, who set the single season touchdown record of twenty one this season, over a certain ex commissioner Josh Garden as the previous record holder at eighteen. The Otters led big in this game, as Akselsen did not have a good game and the Otters defense and Offense were firing on all cylinders across the field, leading to a twenty point decific across much of the game. The Wraiths lost hope early and the Otters cruised to another Ultimus Victory, bringing their total to two in two different season.

Going to Disneyland!:Who was the Ultimus MVP? Give us a rundown of their celebratory trip to Disneyland. (Can be completed after the Ultimus game)
The Ultimus MVP who absolutely deserved to gain the honors could only be Orange County Otters Ian Bavitz. Ian was drafted by the Otters in the first annual draft of the National Simulation Football League, and he has become one of the highest achieving and working players in the league in his time. In the Ultimus game, Bavitz logged a sack, interception, and nine separate tackles, becoming the defensive player of the game.
Of Course, Bavitz chose to attend Disney World, instead of Disney Land, because of the proximity to Orange County, and therefore the higher density of Otters fans who regularly come to Disney World, and indeed, he did sign a total of three Bavitz Jerseys, two Sierra rookie specials, and approximately twelve different Mike Boss jerseys, tee shirts, sweatshirts, and strangely, silk lounge jackets. Local legend say that the Harry Potter ride broke down, Bavitz went backstage and had it up and running in under an hour, however five different children were born to female Disney World employees who were not expecting such fruits out of their own relationships, in approximately nine months bearing a strong resemblance to Ian Bavitz. He looks foward to forming his own offensive juggernaut one day, made of his own children.
