THE DRAGON’S LEGACY: WHITTYQUIPO ENTERS THE HALL OF FAME

The National Bobble League has officially inducted Whittyquipo—founding player, two-time All-Star, First Team selection, and Most Improved winner into the NBL Hall of Fame, closing the chapter on one of the most influential careers the league has ever seen.

A Founder, A Visionary, A Day-One Icon

Before the NBL had logos, rivalries, or scoreboards, it had Whittyquipo. One of just four founding players, he was the second person to ever join the server, and the first in league history to create a franchise. That franchise would become the SQ Dragons, co-built with Jordan during the infancy of Season 1. Few teams are as essential to NBL lore as the Dragons, and that foundation was Whitty’s doing.

Season 1: The Postseason Run That Made Him a Legend

Whitty’s first regular season was quiet, but the postseason was anything but. Matched against Lil Nee, who went on to sweep every award and win the championship, Whittyquipo pushed the future champion to the absolute limit.

The series between the SQ Dragons and the Blue Ballers was instantly immortalized:

Game 1: 5–4 SQ Dragons

Game 2: 5–4 Blue Ballers

Game 3: 5–4 Blue Ballers

Three games. Three one-point margins. Heartbreak, heroics, and history. Whitty not only stood toe-to-toe with Lil Nee—he outperformed MVP runner-up Coldblizzard, proving he belonged with the league’s elite. It was the NBL’s first great rivalry, and Whittyquipo was at the center of it.

Season 2: Reinvention and Peak Performance

Season 2 saw the Dragons reborn as the SB Dragons, pairing Whittyquipo with former rival Coldblizzard. Their partnership was explosive, unpredictable, and short-lived classic NBL chaos. Midseason, Whitty traded Coldblizzard and Googan for John, a bold move that reshaped the team identity yet again. Despite the early playoff exit against Lil Nee’s Frost Falcons, Whitty’s individual resume skyrocketed:

NBL All-Star

NBL First Team

Most Improved Player

Season 2 was his highest peak, a season where he proved he wasn’t just a founder, but a certified star.

Season 3: The Fade and the Final Goodbye

By late Season 2 and early Season 3, fatigue began to set in. The once-electric scorer and defensive menace struggled to find consistency. The spark wasn’t there anymore. Determined to rebuild again, Whitty rebranded the franchise as OPO, a symbolic attempt to wipe the slate clean after years of carrying his teams alone. He drafted Hank, forming a genuine friendship and ultimately passing the team’s ownership to him. Whitty then drifted to the MBL… but never returned to the NBL stage. Eventually, he left the server entirely, signaling the end of an era.

A Legacy Secured Forever

Whittyquipo’s influence goes far beyond stats.

He shaped the culture.

He built the first team.

He pushed the first superstar to the edge.

He rebranded (a lot), rebuilt (even more), and never stopped competing until the fire burned out.

Today, the NBL honors that impact by placing him into the Hall of Fame, forever preserving his story in league history.

His Final Words to the League

Before stepping away, Whittyquipo left fans with one last quote, something that perfectly matches his energy:

“Sometimes life is like a watermelon, the seeds won’t ruin it if you remove them.”

Cryptic. Funny. Kinda wise. Very Whitty.

Farewell to a Founder

The Dragons will continue, the league will grow, and new stars will rise, but the NBL will always remember the player who helped spark it all. Congratulations, Whittyquipo. Hall of Fame forever.
