24

Who is even GroGu? Why would take this trade? Worst trade in trades history.

Also :cmc: got a really good and well rounded team. I think they will win this one.

Feel free to tag this post when CMC gets the last place and this GroGu guy 5-0s every one of his series.

I thought there was some mutual understanding not to pick up revnak because he's generally disliked, but cmc did pick him up and now became too stacked. Because as much as I dislike the guy, he is not a bad player and he went for far below his actual price which kinda resulted in cmc roster becoming super stacked. Only problem I can see with the team is miggo usually mental booms after losing 1 unit but I think even if sompu takes that 5th slot instead their other 4 are probably too good. kevin might do poorly cus he can play brain afk in tourneys sometimes but I think he's played enough by now to fix that

for now I predict cmc first because of above reasons
mandarin 2nd because kaiser+ ezad are solid, oli looks like the kinda guy to cheese some wins, conq/wood/steppen i do not know well.
3rd boomers, frontline was a steal (bad trade from lion), julian will probably do well, mitoe and turk kinda depends which versions show up and happycat idfk. i could see them do better than mandarin as well from probably having better 4/5 seed players(frontline+happycat > conq+ steppen/wood?). but I do ultimately put them third due to ezad+ kaiser being too good
4th bigs cus me, lukas and look tom are shite and there is no clear s tier player. happy to be wrong tho xD

I feel like you are kind of downplaying yourself and your team. Ok, :bigs: does not have a star player, but I don't see nobody that can actually compromise. Like, who is the worst player that would actually play for the team? Lukas? Yuki? Even they are kind of solid players. BIGS is a very balanced team, with nobody really good but nobody bad as well.

Also, where is Hazza? Hasn't he signed up? (viewtopic.php?f=982&t=25025&p=585036#p585036)

Is the season even worth playing? I don't see a single loss on the schedule for the BIGS.

Don't know what's been going on behind the scenes but "mutual understandings" to not pick #1 player on the ladder sounds silly to me, whether people like him or not.

People should put out their prejudices during tournament and do their best it's really bad attempt from managers who so ever agreed for that. They are hindering themselves from winning.

Also would like to see new managers , 1 more team added next season and hopefully not have managers to pull stunts like not picking "x" player be it individual or mutual understanding .

Managers while drafting players should consider their activity/diversity and performance in game and not on something they all like/dislike on personality/attitude as long as they don't grief/affect the event in same way.

There was no agreement between managers on not picking Revnak.
If you want the truth it was discussed in EPL season 3, but MDS decided to nominate him back then so don't blame me for some "mutual understandings".
It wasn't discussed and even if it was I wouldn't believe them anyway.

I mean im not fussed as im not a player or manager but some of the draft order made 0 sense if revnak was fair game.

Well he's #1 on ladder with full Italy for like the past 200 games so what does that mean in a tourney where Italy is banned?
And then what good is it to draft a player in your team if most players out there don't want him in their team, regardless of his skill?

But besides that ofc yeah it's weird if there was some hidden agreement not to draft him

nice to know that there was a hidden agreement, so hidden that even as a manager I wasn't aware of it.

CMC team is very strong but as usual at depends a lot on player forms, how much time and effort people put into practicing, whether they over or underperform in matches etc. I think the only team that really messed up is BIGs but they still have a nonzero chance of winning, then the 3 other teams all have strong chances of winning.

I just hope DE is not going to implement all of the EP changes. Right now it is a big clusterfuck.
