Select, Icon, RT, Aether, Apoc, and 311. With Ideal, Blackout, nCn, and Div6 on the way. Not too shabby. It's been a long time i've been somewhat excited about the top ten, guess we recovered from summer after all. Some of the old faces are looking alot stronger as of late. 311 has Phr33ky and sinjix back plus a few pretty good recruits. nCn has also been recruiting well. blackout looks to be pretty good. Div6 also has a very capable roster. And ideal has come back pretty strong as well. Im happy and I'm ridin this bitch all the way to T:V.
people have been saying this since T2 came out. and no one is ever satisfied.

jsut's cheats scripts

That's cuz there can only be one number 1 team. And let me offer a piece of insight. The people that are never satisfied, are never satisfied.

...and how is Blackout "solid top ten"? Who have they even played? Eurokuntz would beat the hell out of teams like Blackout, nCn, and 311. And where's Unhandled Exception?

I nominate this thread as worst picks of the month.

-5/10

wow, that was insightful.

on another note, i heard div6 might actually manage a challenge in their first month on the ladder. oh wait, the already missed it.

i just hope they don't mutiny on us

I didn't say anything about ora, because I don't give a fuck about what you think. I simply stated that this thread sucks, because you took out top teams and replaced them with TOTALLY new teams that havent even played a match.

What a tard.

After scrimming Ora alot they seem alot better than icon

ya i hope they actually play this time too, if not they'll have some good recruits that will help the top 10 get even stronger.
I wouldn't leave out Aether from the list and I think ZU could suprise a few people. I think Div6 will just fizzle like previous incarnations (eg. A51, Mutiny, etc.), so I wouldn't count them in just yet.

Another team to watch is Aurora. Looks like they are having serious roster issues. With their reputation, I just don't see them being able to recruit too many great players. While I hope they survive, it's not looking good.

sf was a totally new team at one point, didnt change the fact that they were top 2 material. blackout has alot of s3 players which was a top 10 team. No they havent proved themselves yet, but im sure they will. Dont worry, I wont expect an apology when my predicted top 10 is the actual top 10.

What? You had to edit your post from 20 to 28? Gee, I can see you added that lameass "recruiting" insult, that one really did some damage. Hold up a second, while I look at every other team that has had to recruit/drop down to the bottom of the ladder... ...yea, that's right, now stfd.
IF ora can muster back up, i'd put them right up there.

Looks like DT may have killed them...OHHHH another ora cheats joke. Damn im not funny.
lemme clue you in... the good recruits arent coming, as envy and anyone else who isn't blind can see. Your only prayer is to get your old players to play again, and then yes, you'd prolly be top 10. This thread started out as an optimistic declaration of satisfaction with the ladder and its potential. Way to "validuz" it up with negativity.

Uhhh...

For some clarification:

Blackout is not s3. We have 5 s3 guys out of a 22 man roster. That is hardly s3. We have as much $A$ players as s3 guys so if you are going to label us as an reincarnation of s3, might as well of label us as $A$ too.

The only way blackout is going to get into the top 10 is to work our asses off. Which is something we will do but that takes time. Don't expect us to jump into the top 10 in 2 weeks. It is not going to happen.

Maybe you/Envy's idea of "good players" aren't ours??? Hmmmm??? Just because we need players, doesn't mean we are going to recruit Joe Newbie or some supposed all-star, I recruit people that are smart, not popular, and that isn't going to change unless the team decides to call it quits.

Your only prayer is to get your old players to play again, and then yes, you'd prolly be top 10.
Well, they are smart players, they just had/choose to retire is all.. hopefully a couple DO come back.

Yea, I'm sure deep down in your heart, you didn't mean to insult actual top 10 teams by replacing them with teams that havent even played a match yet....

And btw... fix your fucking flash sig, you're making people's IE windows lock-up while loading your sig from whatever SLOWASS host it's on.
Blackout actually has more than 5 people from s3.

Asellus, Dimi, f0ker, JMC, MD, MC, Nosh, Toga <--- all s3.

that's, what, 8 people? However, no, we aren't a reincarnation of s3, especially since a few of the people from s3 have changed their position while on blackout.

(Oh, and ho was at one time part of s3... but that was in the early stages of it, so it's up to you if you want to count him.)

ban
val, you honestly think ban, (ma), and eu should all be at the rung they are? (granted, eu will probably always be in the top ten, but theyre all limey bastards...all of them)

And Im sorry, but exe isnt going to stay where they are. Theyre good, theyre smart, and theyll learn, but I could see a rough time with ideal and ncn and the such.

Eu should be... idk about BaN and MA, but it's not like they don't "deserve" being up there. I just doubt that teams like exe and eu are going to be pushed off the ladder by TOTALLY new teams that (I fucking HATE using this saying) "haven't proved anything yet" (aka, haven't played a match).
Hehe, i dont know why ppl dont give aurora the credit they deserve, true ppl have labeled them as "cheaters" but they arent a bad team at all.
When we first started Sf we started scrimming ora cuz we knew they would give us a good challenge, hell, they even beat us on alot of maps in scrims. Probably more than we beat them in the early going.
Imo if they get thier recruiting done and start gelling with the new players they will be a force to reckon with. They will easily be in the top 10 and could possibly be #1 some day if they do things right.
ma got a forfeit win over slap or something like that to get in, Id argue they dont deserve to be there

and I cant see exe being much higher than 8, and thats disregarding the new teams, if div6 actually plays ( ) then I wouldnt see higher than 9, if ora gets shit together I wouldnt see higher than 10. and if blackout turns out to have the same qualitites as s3 (yes, 8 guys together can be a base for creating a good team by bringing everyone else up to their level), then I wouldnt bet on the top 10 being an easy egg to crack

so, while totally discounting them may be a mistake, its easy enough to see that, if people can actually stay on a team for more than 15 minutes, there may be some life left in the game and some top10 teams now may no longer be up there.

.-5/10


I have to disagree with this, cuz that's just not true. Ideal with a worse roster than they have now, alot less time together, and prolly a little luck got past negativity. A team that beat eu pretty well. Ideal lost some and gained some.. other than bdk's departure they've more than compensated in their recruiting for the players they lost. Not saying they're number 1 or anything.. eu just wouldnt beat them.
Depends on the maps. Get DX, Mino, and Drifts and EU can run with anyone.

BBJ
Should also mention.. losing jackass sucked too
