Stab, i never said you guys weren't the ones who started the non killing sharks outside fr, i admit we copied that from you, and just to brag pandora one that made 2 spiders under 1 push/1 camp with full push upper strat YAWNFEST

[eelam <tw>]

eelam, max b is the weakest shark on your roster...vati got tha hawt skills of good mine placement/bombs/timing...max b jus fuks everything up...legionar better at timing and so is herik. pick one of them to start over max b.

LAFF dont know where u get your balls to talk shit about max b dwop when its obvious he is a way better shark than u. Max b is good at breaking crams with thrust reps which allow spiders to up and own cram, also he is good at making sure he gets 3 reps off when he not rusty.

me t00 im g00d in shark i got 0-2000 in pub o/

[Salubrious]

I don't get credit for most of the shit I've started. I'm the one that started the whole "don't kill lower sharks" thing with Spastic. There are so many shark strategies that I did first. I was the first one to rush up from spawn to repel the enemy terr, the first one to bomb cram on attack, the first one to repel mines over and up into the cram from mid. There are probably more, but those are the ones that come to mind. I am amazed at how much shit I pioneered that people consider standard strategy these days.

Pubbers who have never seen a TWLB match also do this.

[Stabwound]

Good for them, but I have no idea what your point is. That's like saying pubbers cram without watching TWLB, but they wouldn't do it if Camisade didn't start doing it originally. No one in TWBD did the shit I listed until I started doing it.

There are other possible strategies that no teams do, but it's way too hard to get a team coordinated enough to pull them off, even though it would own other teams. Maybe with teamspeak or ventrillo or whatever...

Whatever, I just wanted to brag. Done talking about Spastic and myself. Continue the thread. -_-

[Ivan]

Stabwound got a point, which is the truth.

[Spikester]

LAFF dont know where u get your balls to talk shit about max b dwop when its obvious he is a way better shark than u. Max b is good at breaking crams with LAG SPIKES which allow spiders to up and own cram, also he is good at making sure he gets 3 reps off when he not rusty.

Fixed that for you!

dicE
My Prediction: Finals
Key Players: megaman89, Cape, Stayon, a2m, Cig Smoke, Domi, Jrahen
Reason: It's pretty much self-explanitory. Stayon and Jrahen are unbefuckinglievable, with the obvious addition of arguably the best spider to play the game, megaman89. Cig and a2m are probably sharking, along with Cape (one of the better terrs to play the game), and I'm sure the other two spiders will be something like Domi and shrabby. Honestly, it seems unbeatable, and probably will be. Goodluck to anyone playing them, it's not fun. Best matches will be against Spastic and Pandora, and if Stlye can show their best line-up, that will be exciting as well.

Spastic
My Prediction: Finals/Semi-Finals
Key Players: JAMAL, Summa, Pure_Luck, Solacer, Sprained, Stabwound
Reason: With the addition of x-A-S players, their spider line has only gotten better. Sprained and Solacer are two mega-spiders, and will add an immense amount of deaths and pressure to the other team. P_L is all over the place in BD's, but he'll probably sober up for TWL and do great. JAMAL is awesome, Humidity is sick, if Stab plays their sharking situation is fine.

Pandora
My Prediction: Finals/Semi-Finals
Key Players: sarger, Eelam, Vatican Assassin, Evul, Tim, Zung, Apoc WOW!
Reason: Their spiders are incredible. They lack the sharks to put up a fight against Spastic and dicE, and if Tim terrs, he'll do a good job. Behind the spiders they should get top 3, but going further depends on whether or not Apoc WOW can get active in shark again to play with Vati. Zung, Evul, Eelam and Sarger are disgusting.

Style
My Prediction: Semi-Finals
Key Players: Everest, Necromotic, castromarx, Reaver, Weaver
Reason: Vihta has to get active. Necro/castro is a monstrous shark combo, along with a great, crafty terr in Everest, but they lack spiders. Dueling spiders can only get you so far, and Reaver and Weaver is really all they have to compete at a top 4 level. If vihta can come back and unrust, they'll do exponentially well, and probably will advance far in play-offs.

Disoblige
My Prediction: Semi-Finals
Key Players: bram, Da1andonly, Jack, Phrenitis, trouper, warportal, Zizzo, Mattey
Reason: I feel they CAN do better than Style, with the right lineup. Right now I see the same guys BD'ing for them, and doing well, but if Phrenitis and Jack can show, their spid line will only get better. Da1 should jav, not only because he's insane at it, but adding a jav puts so much pressure on the opposing terr, and if he's playing well he gets 3:1 recs with like 5 teks. Bram and Zizzo are nasty, and warportal can hold his own. Trouper's probably one of the best pushing spiders in the game when he's playing well, and if they all show they'll push for top 4.

Penetrate
My Prediction: Semi-Finals/Quater-Finals
Key Players: Dead_Rain, Ekko, Jeenyuss, royst, pavement, Tsumetai
Reason: Dead_Rain is fucking insane. Honestly, I missed last season so I didn't get to see him play, but he's a monster from what I've seen in the relatively competitive BD's he plays in. If Jeenyuss and Royst shark, they won't lose crams in front of great spiders like Ekko, Pavement and Tsumetai. If Lunch3 can get active and make a comeback, they'll probably put up good fights in playoffs and do extremely well. I love their lineup and activity, and I hope they do well.

Thunder
My Prediction: Semi-Finals/Quater-Finals
Key Players: chino, Dutch Baser, Ease, Fludd, NL>TERMINATOR, Windreaper
Reason: I don't know what to expect from these guys. Other than Ease in warbird I haven't really played any tough matches vs. them. NL>Terminator, DB, Fludd and Ease seem like such an incredible spider line, and Chino is a proven terr, but sharks? Windreaper's awesome, but who will he play with? Their placing is questionable, but they'll do ok.

Mambo
My Prediction: Semi-Finals/Quater-Finals
Key Players: Eeks, fizzy, Invincible, Leitz, M_M God, subby, WingZero
Reason: C'mon now guys, awesome basing line. But to what extent will you play without a solid terrier? WingZero's.. good, but not like he was in your first season. If Eeks, Invincible, Leitz and M_M can show to spider, and fizzy and Subby can shark, the lineup will do awesome. But the terrier has to hold his own, and hopefully WZ can do his job. Playoffs.

Sage
My Prediction: Quater-Finals at Best
Key Players: Kawrae, Spikey, Havu, Zizu, NL>Trigger, Depho, bliz
Reason: Spikey, Zizu, NL>Trigger, Depho and Bliz would be a phenominal lineup if they could get on at the same time and bliz could unrust. Kawrae's an awesome terrier, and they've got a bunch of mediocre-good sharks that can do their job. They're questionable like Mambo, because if they bring their A game they can probably pull a bunch of upsets.

Plade
My Prediction: Quater-Finals at Best
Key Players: Mikkiz, Sakke1, Dreamwin, sponge B0B
Reason: The squad was made right before TWL, and I haven't seen any of these guys in a while.. Mikkiz has always been a good terrier if he can fix his lag issues for the TWL bots, in which case Dreamwin will probably terr. Sponge B0B and Sakke are good spiders, although I've always seen Sakke as an awesome shark with Volny from way back when in Dudgeon. They won't do well, only because the other squads in TWL are so stacked. I think the best match they'll play is vs. Sage and Juice.

TeKs
My Prediction: Won't Do Well
Key Players: A I, Falk, RageRitual, dads revenge, Bartman
Reason: Honestly, I don't know much about this squad. They are a bunch of new guys, obvously trying to break into the scene of competitive basing, and they just won't have the experience or knowledge to put up a fight against any of the squads. Their best match will be vs. Plade, which still won't be a fun game for them.

Jewze
My Prediction: Epic Fail
Key Players: Logain, Tornad0, Little Slick
Reason: -2ez-

re

nice predictions thix, but one thing you dont seem to realize is dice/pandora on a diff level than any other basing squads , and dice's line isn't unbeatable its just that they have a lot of "big" name basers b4 the time of pandora, i.e. cape/domi but i havne't seen them do much or play much to show that they can own when pandora been around. I still think dice is our best oppenent is the only squad that can outright beat us without us doing stupid mistakes. See you in finals dice, be sure to bring meganewb and cripple so i can spank u guys around.

You don't seem to realize that you are not really on a different level, spastic is going to rape this season based on who they have picked up, you guys are on the same level.

Also there are 2-3 squads that could easily be put on the same level with a pickup or two, like if Mambo somehow stole tim from you, they'd beat you. Or if thunder picked up a nice shark partner for windreaper they could upset dice/pandora/spastic/anyone.

I don't understand why any player would bench for a top squad when they could help a less stacked squad out. Hopefully players from the stacked basing teams will want some playing time and hop around so this season is even more exciting.

Any Prediction made of Penetrate without mentioning me is foolish.

drow and raspi are good spiders, i'm expecting to see them playing.

oh and paska is definitely a starting spider for dice.

someone else was saying something along the lines of... "if mambo could get tim to join they would bla bla bla" -- kinda obvious, tim is pandoras starting terr. haha

I completely agree
