Reported by Daniel Mendez, VEKN Prince of Gijón and Arnau Diez, VEKN National Coordinator of Spain:

The most important Methuselah meeting in Spain brought together 121 players eager to snag the Champion title on Saturday, April 20th, in the city of Avilés, in Asturias.

The National Championship took place within the Manga Hall, Nika-pon. In the conference rooms, players not involved in the bustling event battled through three rounds and a final to prove who was Spain's top player in this year, 2024. Ismael Díaz Valverde clinched the coveted title. The event unfolded as planned, with no incidents to regret, showcasing once again that VTES is more than just a game.

No one was left out; companions could enjoy other activities offered at the event or explore the city, where there was always food and drink to celebrate the occasion and enjoy these lands. Within the hall, over 100 m² of boardgames, role-playing games, war games, and workshops were available to attendees of all ages.

Standings before final, top 5 players:
1. Alejandro Rodríguez García 2 GW, 8.0 VP
2. Ismael Díaz Valverde 2 GW, 8.0 VP
3. Luis Javier Flores Álvarez 2 GW, 8.0 VP
