Trades explained
With so much trading going, lets have a look how teams have changed since the draft happened and what kind of implications those trades may have on teams involved. Only 1 captain, bike, has not given in to temptation of trading anyone, sticking with his original team. Looking at results, he has no reason to worry as well, as pwned is joint leader of competition. Also zidane has been relatively quiet, only making the draft day switch in ogron for ekko. Hellzno! has been already traded twice, spending a week on pure luck bench, before involved in another trade, so i have added his original team and current location.
Prime
Out - ogron, cape, menelvagor, skatarius, banzi, havok
In - ekko, iron survivor, hulk , lockdown, omega red
Racka has been one of the most active traders so far in terms of players changed, as 6 of his original picks have been moved, also including r2,3,4 and 6th pick. So majority of his first picks are now gone. While ogron for ekko was straighforward terrier switch, rest of trades seem solidifying Rackas desire to win wb at all costs this season, but definitely not make his life easier in base and well jav at least in my opinion is also a bit weaker.
Pure luck
In - cape, morph, menelvagor, skatarius, mouse, peru
Out - iron survivor, rainbow seeker, beam, hulk, Rodney, aprix
Tiny wasted no time and started trading already after first unsuccessful weak. What looked to be powerhouse wb team after draft, now looks more like powerhouse jav team with all 3 potential wb starters drafted away, but quality multishippers cape/morph/skatarius joining as well as specialists peru, menel and mouse. This of course means tiny has traded away 3 of his first picks in draft completely changing the focus on team. PL recent week looked good, lets see if momentum carries them to playoff spots, margins are small.
Force
In - rainbow seeker, beam, Rodney, download, rojo
Out - morph, hellzno!, draft
Siaxis has followed Rackas logic in making what was already strong there: wb line, even stronger, but also added numbers to his team with 5 players replacing 3 with rojo probably playing important low-star role for team.
Monster
In - draft, dak, azuline
Out - download, rojo, markmrw, mouse
Monsters league hasnt gone as good as Rampage has wanted and looks like some changes were needed. Dak will make their wb line stronger and draft will do same with jav, departures mainly involve basers, as Rampage is turning focus on duelling leagues.
Terrorist
In - banzi, havok
Out - lockdown, omega red
Dreamwin had very base-heavy team and has now used trade options to bolster also jav with havok and banzi definitely improving their chances in that league.
Dice
In - markmrw, aprix, hellzno!
Out - peru, dak, azuline
Dice started out strong, but has had issues with showups, aprix and hellz definitely improve their chances in jav, while mark seems straight swap for azuline. Losing dak and peru though means okyo has to do even more carrying in wb, if they want to get some wins there, so looks like focus is on jav and base for stayon.
Power
In - ogron
Out - ekko
Trade made right after draft, not really sure about backround of this.
