Saturday seems the luckiest day to challenge Celeberimbor, with a win rate nudging over 56%, while evenings and late nights are more precarious with slumps around 20-30%.
Epic Battles & Memorable Opponents
Celeberimbor has enjoyed sweet victories over contenders like rohanascend and maimans with perfect 100% records, but remains perpetually haunted by the specter of i-u-shebhay and francarbealirajo, against whom triumphs are elusive.
