Why Falcons? To show how insanely high a team can get when you don't have to worry about people killing a player? Perhaps playing every game with around a 100 TS advantage is a skill.
Falcons are nice in that it is always fun to see one of those TR 700 monstrosities (check out OLBBL if you want to see more). As far as i see, the Falcons were not built on skill, only a limited selection of coaches and opposing teams.
The real legendary teams got their legendary players the old fashioned way, by fighting a variety of opponents.
Elfball teams get no love here.

you're just denigrating.
However I think the Blood Falcons, for havingf been the highest TR team ever (as far as I am aware) are the most famous team around. |

hmmm, as far as I can see the poll list is very short and therefore inaccurate...
maybe we can safe this thread and list all those famous teams... then create a new poll where you can choose the team you are a fan of...
I would like to see the following teams there:
Fluffy Kittens and more
Lavino Fighting Hellfishes
Microchoir
Nachtburg Ancients
Peokko's special mix

He's certainly denigrating - but why the 'just'?
The Blood Falcons almost certainly are the most famous team in Ranked. Do they deserve to be? That's another question entirely … |

We are talking about Fame rather than whether or not you think the team are any good
Also when talking about fame others have mentioned that a lot o fnew teams have been mentioned rather than the old teams from way back when . But in this fickle world you need to maintain a presence to stop you becoming yesterdays news , obviously you still keep a legendary fame for a long while , Fame takes as long to build as it takes to fade .
So far "My Eleven Thugz" havent been named but if you bother looking at the record book they seem well deserving of a mention even though they are long gone it seems .
I think asking who is the most famous is never going to be able to be answered , who would you say was more famous between Madonna and Michael Jackson , they are both universally known by everyone ?
There are teams that are probably known of by everybody who has played here for a month and shown any intrest in the community . As fame is just a matter of how many people know you then its not really something you can easily quantify as a more/less destinction . |

I'd list Inkaprettatori and My 11 Thugz right there next to Blood Falcons. And don't forget that awful team with the most-cas-making-player, Bunnypuncher. Ugh. |
