TDL / HDT Awards for Season 521
Arthur Kane
April 20, 2004

With the end of Season 521, the Team Dueling League closed its doors for the summer, but not before the coveted TDL Cup was presented to Atrebla. ATR is the second team in League history to not only win two seasons, but also to win them in consecutive seasons. The accomplishment was even more notable this season, because their final opponent for both seasons was the same team, the ever-formidable Wrecking Crew.

With the conclusion of Season 521, HDT Enterprises, in cooperation with TDL Enterprises, created the MacKenzie Cup, giving the TDL Cup a new name in honor of the creator of the Team Dueling League, Ian MacKenzie.

For winning the Post-Season Tournament, the Team Dueling League awards the newly renamed MacKenzie Cup to Atrebla.

In addition to the MacKenzie Cup, HDT Enterprises also created trophies for three other performance-based* finishes.

* Performance as measured by current League rules.

Recipients of the new HDT sponsored awards include:

For winning in the Gem Conference, the Diamond Trophy is awarded to Atrebla.

For winning in the Metal Conference, the Platinum Trophy is awarded to the Wrecking Crew.

For best overall record at the season's end, the Emperor's Trophy is awarded to En Fuego.
