Lol i was about to make it but good work! :)

dddddddddddddddddd is going to die before the season starts

edit: looks like the dream is alive

I'd love to see some impossibly early playoff predictions from people. I'd also like to scrim some more of the better open teams so I can make some myself.

Team dies on 4th week. Was predicted to last 3, but I'm optimistic.

It's ok, we'll take you back ;)

These 3 teams will be somewhere in the top 6 teams in open:
http://play.esea.net/teams/74406
http://play.esea.net/teams/61741
http://play.esea.net/teams/75360

This team will be somwhere in the bottom 3 teams in open (No offense):
http://play.esea.net/teams/74169

For the 2nd time in 3 seasons, we will have a tiebreaker game in order to determine who makes the playoffs. There are about 10-12 open teams right now that are nearly identical in skill.

There will be about a 70-75% team survival rate this season.

angry autists - win by ping

I had someone last night telling me that Echelon would be .500 at best. I'll let him remain nameless so his shame is not made public

WTF THIS IBBY TEAM

I'm just praying that ibby's team doesn't live or at least if they do, that we don't play them

Echelon will be decent. Ibby's team is going to be unfair. The first team you listed (don't remember the name) is gonna be very good, should make playoffs for sure.

http://play.esea.net/teams/70134 I only know of Fast Fire =\

http://play.esea.net/teams/75155

We end up dead last because we only played 1 season of UGC Steel 6s.

Bunch of people from RoT are on that.

Holy shit 10 people paid.

16 teams I think will be in playoffs. This is only based off people I know from last season, really. A lot of people moved up to IM so I don`t know a lot people that are up and coming (WE'LL SEE AS THE SEASON PROGRESSES).

In no particular order:
http://play.esea.net/teams/75340 - because 2c raped me in cpma
http://play.esea.net/teams/73975 - have you seen delpo shoot rockets???
http://play.esea.net/teams/74724 - why are they still here :(
http://play.esea.net/teams/73867 - it's forgets... they'll probably barely make it
http://play.esea.net/teams/69789 - team did good last season
http://play.esea.net/teams/73223 - wasn't this brackets or something?
http://play.esea.net/teams/61741 - the revival
http://play.esea.net/teams/74866 - ddos central jk ily bape
http://play.esea.net/teams/70319 - team's had experience, plus i'm biased for stale
http://play.esea.net/teams/75348 - STONE COLD
http://play.esea.net/teams/33057 - familiar names, almost made playoffs last season
http://play.esea.net/teams/70455 - don't really know them personally but they're good
http://play.esea.net/teams/73891 - why are these guys in open too :(
http://play.esea.net/teams/61245 - radium knows his shit. didn't you read his articles
http://play.esea.net/teams/68718 - these dudes knew to cut forgets so they took a step in the right direction (im joking forgets don't worry)
http://play.esea.net/teams/75245 - is that kraka

edit:
I forgot ibby's team since I didn't click on unpaid teams.
http://play.esea.net/teams/75360 - just look at it, wtf?

edit2:
honourable mention (he bribed me)
http://play.esea.net/teams/73028

I can't wait till the moment that some unsuspecting open newbies get to face lineups featuring kraka, Loronix, thrill, and tehoreoz in their first six matchups...

The good news is that Open scheduling adjusts after a bad/good start.

Damn it! WHY is kraka in open? :< Plz respond.

:D

Shlaner's got the right idea.

http://play.esea.net/teams/74241
http://play.esea.net/teams/64919

Will probably surprise people.

The Loronix team might be real, since he had the game uninstalled for like 5 months. Has a few hours in the last few weeks now.

I was going to put them too but I didn't have space and my bias got to me

We'll buy boardwalk in the first week and win outright.
http://play.esea.net/teams/75114
These guys will do really well. RIP Point'n'Click WELCOME Donde
http://play.esea.net/teams/70319

The only glaring omission in shlaner's post:

http://play.esea.net/teams/73290

Had my shit ruined by their scouts far too many times to leave them out.

shLAAANNNer

CC ought to make it since the only reason they didn't last time 1/3rd of their team was at a LAN with 400 ping when they were in their last match which was a make it or break it.(still pretty close with 400 ping)

jesus why are all these old people coming out of the woodworks

shlaner nailed it. but I'd like to also add the following teams, who are very likely to contest for playoffs

http://play.esea.net/teams/69886
http://play.esea.net/teams/70134
http://play.esea.net/teams/72992
http://play.esea.net/teams/69486

and idk about these teams because we've never scrimmed against them:

http://play.esea.net/teams/73290
http://play.esea.net/teams/74406
http://play.esea.net/teams/51452

Im in Black by Association.

So far, the best team we have scrimmed is :

http://play.esea.net/teams/74866

Very close match against Crack Clan Yellow, with their crazy good Pyro. (Watch out!)

Good scrims so far!

#hype

ictus' team will make playoffs for sure.
