I'm too laggy to play and its raining outside so I have nothing better to do. So lets have some fun with this.
Draft Review: Stars spent by team WB/JAV/BASE
Ez Or Wut (Dreamwin) - 144/155/140/439 Pretty even distribution of stars among his lineup but not looking so hot to me in the basing department. My INITIAL impression is that this squad's biggest threat is in it's WB department with Raspi, Jones and Creature, and possibly a2m. Also a valid contender is javs, as long as dreamwins intelligence isn't factored in. (Or lack thereof)
Ruby (Draft) - 144/150/147/441 - Pretty much identical *'s to Dreamwin's team, but a much stronger basing line IMO. JAMAL, stabwound and Raples could be a potent mixture for success, especially given the amount of time stab and jamal have played together, and Raples can most likely succeed anywhere. There is an interesting mix of warbirds in Apok, Riverside, High Templar, and Regen that I am curious to see in action. The jav line should also prove interesting, as most of them have the tendency to get a lot of kills while dying out quickly. Will they last long enough to contend? I think so.
Candy King (M_M God) - 143/150/152/445 - Very lethal basing line of campers and pushers. M_M will surely be javving while Spikey and Vatican Assassin shit all over the opposing terrs, and trasher/turmio will secure each ear making sure the walls have no energy as they set up their coleman lanterns for their camping trip. Does Fludd still have it in him to lead a team to yellow ship victory? I for one am skeptical, as he does not have Ease this time to help carry him to the podium. I predict he will either be great and live up to his 10 stars, or flop and refuse to get subbed by a 6 or 7 star (because he's a champ afterall). Nonetheless, pretty solid line of Dazzal, M_M and Kira_Yamato will be behind him, with perhaps a 6 star zeebu as well. I fear this teams WB line will not click, despite the individual talent. Unlike basing, the midrange and radar play of Burnt/Welt will counteract the suicide rushes of Exalt/Ricko/Kid Kaos. Granted they have a couple more capable birds, but none the less, I do not foresee success in TWDT-D for this team.
Emo Fucks (Singer) - 144/149/144/437 - Even with a nearly identical spread of stars throughout the 3 divisions, I see this team as either....The 2009 NY Yankees or the 2010 NJ Nets. Go figure the one league I feel this team has the best chance will be the one league I will never get to play in, javs. Take Stayon and Aimbot (HLK), and add the ambiguously gay duo of Steak666 and Exquisite with a side of Singer, and you have yourself a very strong contender for the TWDT-J Title. This is my one chance to win anything jav-wise, so I hope I am right! Our Warbird department looks as if it was decimated by a realistic version of Godzilla Vs Mothra. Our highest ranked bird being Geio (Who, lets face it, has a history of choking) is backed by Kthx, pascone, and....Roi I guess. Good Luck guys, I might actually have a chance of playing if we do as I expect we will! To me, our basing line is "Middle Of The Pack" quality. ph will need to step up his game (lag) and start shitting on peoples chests if want to compete with the likes of teams like Candy King. Spids will be our strong suit led by Stayon, Poxy and nokkonen.
Gypsy Humpers (Pjotter) - 146/152/152/450 - Based on my current chats, this team is the early favorite to win DT-B. I, however, respectfully disagree. If PJ is smart, he will curb his ego and let domi be his special, as compared to javving himself instead. Paska and cripple can both be game changers, but I'm really unsure as to what other combination of overrated 7's they should use. Does this teams highest rated jav (maketso) have enough time to shake off the rust of inactivity? I certainly hope so, as I am a fan of maketso in every way, and hope he earns his 9 star rating and leads his team alongside Mess, PJ, and an underrated Crazy Caknockout (6*). I see this team performing well in warbirds. If paska is on his game, he should be right up there in kills with Vash, while Jessup (Burnt 2.0) proves that he can radar stray with the best.
Blood Choke (Thrill) - 151/151/145/447 - Right off the bat one can see that this team is a threat in both birds and javs. Ive personally SEEN mega play birds only once over the past year, so I don't know if he has what it takes to carry his 8 stars (alejandroooooo), but he most likely won't have to worry about it with teammates like Racka, Yakuza, Misled and Honda <ER> (hermit). I am, however, not worried about mega in the jav dept. Mega, Marge and Kid Cudi will likely average 13+ kills per game while Thrill and whatever 6* they feel like playing clean up whatever is left in their path of destruction. Likely a finals contender imo. I would love to play this team every week in DT-B, as I can only find one person on their roster worth their weight in stars. Sure Dutch Baser, Suede, Zyclon are good players, but thats with other good players around them. I don't see this team winning many base games, if any at all.
top5squad (jaa) - 147/129/148/424 - As always, a very valid contender in the warbird department, but Im going to change the name of this team to "why5terrs". Cape, utsav, Kawrae, Zizu and PL, all terrs, except cape can spid decent too. For 148 stars spent on basing, all they really have to show for it is Zhou, renzi for under and 5 terrs. Maybe you can prove me wrong and work some magic, but I don't see it happening. I also don't see much love in the air in your jav dept. Zizu and cape are going to have to reach deep down and perform way above their star level if this team is going to have a chance to win a single game. As mentioned, however, I believe this team as the #1 contender in warbirds. Quartz, chuckle and mythril will very likely carry this team deep into the tournament.
Underground (Ease) - 159/159/154/472 - On paper, this team spent (by far) the most stars in both WBs and Javs, leaving very little room for free agency. Maybe they won't even need it. Ease, vys and Weak are the obvious strong suits in the wb line, which IMO is the most likely to contain a different 6* each week, and probably stands the best chance at fending off why5terrs. Ease, Turban, and any combination of tiny, i.d., 24, chance, lionheart, fizzy and waven provide a viable threat to any jav line, as they have incredible depth off the bench no matter who starts. I don't really know what to say about this teams basing line without coming off as a troll. I don't dislike anybody on this team, but I fail to understand how a single player above a 6* on that team got the rating they got except maybe Fit of Rage and Turban, the rest I'd drop by (at least) 1 star. I see this team beating squads like why5terrs and Blood Choke, but that's about it.
Predicted Finals:
TWDT-D - why5terrs vs Underground
TWDT-J - EmoFucks vs Blood Choke
TWDT-B - Candy King vs Gypsy Humpers
If you like it, great. If you don't, even better! Bear in mind that in the end, these are only my OPINIONS.
