Season 8 Prediction Thread

Teams - Captains
Blouses - Fett
Anthem - list of players better than rayne
YTB - The Baboon Lagoon
Kilar - RAWR
Gunnah - Hennessy
Engima - Morning Dew


Pretty awesome captain selection imo. All pretty good and smart players. Excluding YTB who is dumb, but who cares it looks like he got some awesome players.


So anyway heres predictions
Best teams on top and worst ones on bottom
Ratings go from 1-10 | 1 being the worst and 10 the best


#1 The Baboon Lagoon

Offense Rating: 8/10
Defense Rating: 11/10
Overall Rating: 9.5/10
Notes:
This team looks absolutely fucking ridiculous on way to many levels.
Talk about your all-star defensive lineup, amirite?
Meyog
Proj
ZP
Fire (apparently really good ta player)
possibly HautSoss as well
All on defense. K wut?
I mean shit this team doesn't only have an amazing defensive lineup but they also have a pretty good offensive lineup too. So to anyone saying, "This game is 'capture the flag'" then you're retarded. Not only will you probably never, NEVER, cap against this team (exlcuding next team below) their offense will just end up slowly wearing you down and outlasting you on every map.
Nice picks YTB
Grats on champions



#2 Hennessy

Offense Rating: 11
Defense Rating: 8
Overall Rating: 9.5
Notes:
Exact opposite of The Baboon Lagoon.
This will be Season 8's offensive power team and basically any team with a lower defensive rating will probably end up making it past 15 minutes against this team. Just saying.
Gunnah
Codeman
Nev
All Eyez
Caylen
Adept
Lghtspd
And great late round picks with xclusive, sajent, and even Bizzyman if he ends up showing
Gunnah got some great picks not gonna lie.
Hennessy vs The Baboon Lagoon in finals
The only unfortunate thing that watching any kind of sports tells us is that the better defensive team usually wins and against The Baboon Lagoon.. depending on the maps.. good luck.


#3 Blouses

Offense Rating: 9/10
Defense Rating: 8.5/10
Overall Rating: 8.8/10
Notes:
Great looking team.
It's cool to see Fett and Thaen back on the same team again. These guys did great during Season 2 with cocks.
I mean if you just look at their top 8 or 11 (every one of them) they are all smart and great players. Not only that the majority of them are versatile and can do more than one thing for you most of the time.
You have a few more than capable cappers on this team as well which in turn would leave Thaen open to do something other than cap. Thaen go rape shit as HO plz/ty.
Great late round picks as well with z4t01, Thraq, and even LOLCAPS (just because you always need someone that just sets up back all game - comes in useful even though he bad .. dunno if hes better now though).


#4 Morning Dew

Offense Rating: 8/10
Defense Rating: 8/10
Overall Rating: 8/10
Notes:
Couple lag cappers on this team (or a few).
Devil, Zeke, and Raptorz if he caps too
Also have Bran (who I think would probably be better off doing something other than capping) and Pantera who was a great late round pick imo
So good luck to the other teams LD hitting your LR and CG ;P
Great defensive lineup as well
Enigma, EFX, Raptorz if he LD's (depends on capping etc), and Marko
Very evently balanced team imo and they will probably do pretty well


#5 RAWR

Offense Rating: 7/10
Defense Rating: 8/10
Overall Rating: 7.5/10
Notes:
It's a good looking team imo just I think they are lacking a little offensive power in the all-star HO department. I know Bizzy can HO if he needs to and he's probably their best. Then you have Wedge, Berserker, and others that are also good.
Other than that, regarding their offense, their capping looks pretty good with Astralis, Bizzy if he needs to, and I'm assuming I'm missing someone but yeah
They just look better defensively to me with a couple few good LD and great farming/hd/hof people (bubbletrout mvp).
I think they are gonna end up struggling though just a bit on offense and that will hold this team back a bit.
I just think this team looks better defensively a bit. :3


#6 list of players better than rayne

Offense Rating: 8/10
Defense Rating: 5/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10
Notes:
Sry Anthem
:<
Honestly their offense doesn't look all that horrible with Anthem, Rayne, slush, Shivan, Redeye, and others.
Just it looks like you really fucked up when it came to getting your defensive picks. You waited to long and :< idk mang. Just good luck on defense I guess - no idea what you're going to do right now and how you're gonna keep that flag home.


----


So yeah thats about it
Grats to either The Baboon Lagoon or Hennessy for winning S8

:3

4/10
I'll toss my hat in the ring again after my last foot in mouth experience


#1 Gunnah
CAP: Nevares, adept,
HO: Gunnah, Codeman, Alleyes, Fallenone?
D: Caylen, Mavi, Linchy, lghtspd, soc,

This is a very dominant offense and gunnah got incredibly lucky drafting the defense to compliment it. Solid and balanced team. GJ


#2 YTB
CAP: YTB, Desco, Domestic
HO: SelfO, Cirrus, Tootz, Ideally
D: Meyog, Proj, ZP, Aureole, Fire, Wyze, Haut

I don't really know what to think about this team, it's so one sided. The first 4 picks were D which is kind of absurd given the capping and HO squad. I think this team hinges a lot on whether ideally, domestic show.


#3 Bossdogg
CAP: Fett, Dibs, Krash, Zumie
HO: Thaen, Halo, Worm, essence?
D: Hotrod, Mooley, Firepower, Gholan, Thraq?

This team has a lot of cappers and some strong primary HO, but they may be forced to move dibs back to D to help out. If essence shows, the offense will be quite scary.


#4 Dave
CAP: Astralis, Verve, Fase2
HO: Bizzy, Wedge, Berserker, Heels
D: Dave, Jelly, Btrout, Zepto, Popo

Strong capping duo should create a lot of chances for the offense, but defense is going to need help, especially against a team like gunnah's.


#5 Anthem
CAP: Slush, Jazzz, NYC, Hitch
HO: Anthem, Rayne, Shivan, Sqz
D: Idjit, Redeye, Glarm, Shyzter, Bigsex

Whether Jazzz or NYC pan out as cappers or are required to shore up defense is yet to be seen, it might force shivan off HO to help cap as well.

not after i'm done revolutionizing tribe for the (what is it now? 7th?) time
ytb's team is fucked (not in a bad way), awesome d for sure, but morgor's team had a pretty sweet d line up, and we were first out. kilar, enigma, idjit, i was p rusty last season so i wouldnt include myself.

but meyogs awesome, i havent played with zp but i saw him o sniping alot which is great for defense, and proj is a great smart player but he told me he hasnt played since s1, so who knows. still sick d line up if zp stops being a fag o sniper, and proj shakes off any rust he might have
but you gotta get flags home, so, who knows.

all teams look pretty good imo, should be a sweet tourny bros


Thanks for the motivation.
i'll take a shot at this..

#1 The Baboon Lagoon
#2 Hennessy
agree with MFcats .

Baboons (YTB)
D should be holding off the enemy O pretty well, hopefully long enough that the O can capitalize.

Hennessy (Gunnah)
Strong O, solid D. Plus is their bench is deep, so filling in roles shouldn't affect the team.

#3 Morning Dew (enigma)
Strong O & D is decent (might be missing some support roles)

#4 list of players better than rayne (anthem)
the problem with this team is that rayne is on it.. therefore how can he be better then himself??
will be interesting who's positioned where.

#5 Blouses (Fett)
Solid O. Hopefully Mooley's farm can allow the D a lil breathing room.

#6 RAWR (kdave)
number of unfamiliar faces. not sure what to expect. no shows a concern? idk.. have to wait and see.
