It’s the final 2026 SHIVA BLAST!
Well shit. It’s the Shiva Grand Final and everything’s fucking crumbling around us. Truly it will be the last Coach standing in a war of attrition but at the end of this weekend, no matter how many injuries, late withdrawals or other fuckhead indiscretions take place, we will have 72 league premiers, 6 champions league victors and 1 Shiva Champion.

For 21 weeks, Shiva coaches have toiled through the draft, waivers and game by game decisions, working to build their squads into a competitive unit. Now the question is, for those that found their way to finals, can they turn the opportunity into glory? For those that failed, can you now save yourselves? Welcome to the finals on the SHIVA BLAST!

With injuries abound, will the Shiva Gods bless or curse you with where they land? In this final minor round, there’s many questions to be answered. Shame you won’t get answers here on the SHIVA BLAST!
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do. Two can be as bad as one, It's the loneliest number since the number one.
