My take on and ranking of the teams in the draw:
The Strongest three:
1: CD - Cheesedorfs 2270 -PeteW
2: Chaos - Cpomb 2250 - myself
3: Dwarf - Ura Tool Too 1880 - Cavetroll
The Main Outsiders:
4: Necromantic - Lycanthropie et Canibalisme 1890 - Sunsson
5: Human - Vault Tec Squad 1950 - OenarLod
6: Vampire - New Vamps on the Blood (1800-2000) - Kingvan
The Lesser Outsider:
7: Khemri - D3 1970 - bigGuy
The Dog:
8: Orc - Rock'em Sock'em 1990 - ultrasmurf
Although the outsiders look threatening and have huge W/L-ratios I feel that "the strongest three" are favourites in any matchup vs the other five teams. So I guess that one of "the strongest three" will emerge the winner. Among the three teams I feel that CD beats Chaos, Chaos beats Dwarves and Dwarves beats CD. So whichever of the three that can avoid the hard match up early in the draw should be my pick of a winner. But since I would never bet against myself I pick my own Cpomb to win the whole thing. |

I'm betting on Kingvan to win this whole thing. The vampires came through the nurgle qualifier where every team was rowdier than those chaos. He'll probably go against PeteW in the finals, but he's gone soft and bloated in his old days, and will be fried by a good wizard.

My team wants to meet Cpomb. 3 shiny DP and enough inducements for a bribe and few babes.. Yes please.
I would hate to meet Vamps, or CD, in the first round. |

Yeah, that is threatening. I feel that my guys could struggle quite alot vs yours outside of the fouling game aswell. |

Yeah vamps look tough as nails, since chaos is low on tackle I think they'll struggle with the vamps. While at the same time the vamps will have a very hard time walking through dwarves or CD. |

Stonetroll speaks truth. I lost my mojo about 6 years ago!
I want vamps to beat chaos and khemri to beat dwarves and necro to beat orcs. I'll take the humans and then clear up.
Or more likely, i go out in the first following a nasty wizard. |

I appreciate the kind words/respect from PeteW and Pirigin and am happy to have advanced. If anything, I feel my team is a bit low in TV but that's because I have a player missing for the first game. But I'll happily take a wizard if the matchup is right.
Naturally I want to see Dwarves win a box major. The first round matchups should be interesting no matter how they pan out. And who doesn't want to see 'Decay' on a dwarf? |

More like... again.
Update: So I went and looked, and a dwarf team has won each of the 3 Box majors once, Black Cup twice. No offense intended PC, I didn't realize you were one of those. Still, I think it would be nice to see dwarves win a 2nd Crown of Sand. Incidentally, a dwarf team won the first CoS. |
