So really, 1up's best option is not to ally LCH at this point, but to ally ND and VsN, hopefully leaving LCH high and dry (though they're likely to join up with mistu, which in turn puts mistu out of the running).
If we look at it from the other side, this is LCH chance at 1up. If they form a block with ND and VsN, 1up would have "no one" to block with. But then again, what would be best for VsN? Maybe blocking with ND, and let LCH and 1up to themself? This is a breaking point in this round, because what ever happends now, it will probably decide who have a chance to win or not.

Will it be 1up, LCH, VsN or mistu?
