Thugs Cry Too: <b>Predicted Finish:</b> 2nd <b>Key Player:</b> DeviL <b>Sleeper: </b> Mercy/Torch <b>Predicted +/-:</b> +235 <b>Wins O/U:</b> 5.5 <b>Predicted Lineup / Grades:</b> Black (Ma) DeviL (Ma) Ninj (Ma) Sabotage (Gr) Splittah (Ma) typh/mizz/torch (Ma) Mercy/Beso (Me) Kippa (Me) <b>Grades:</b> Marines: B+ Meds: B <b>Review: </b> This squad came out of nowhere, all I knew going into the season is that I'd have splittah/mizz/typhoon and we ended up somehow getting some elite players. Ninj/Devil/Sabo/Splittah are all time greats that havent' been super active over FI. If they could return to their top forms this squad will be deadly. Kippa's leading is always to be feared, whether you like him or not you can't deny that he's a talented leader. There's a huge mix of talent on this squad as well. You have your previously mentioned elites, Beso/Hack/Mercy who have all played for very good squads in the past as well. Beso and Mercy could be a killer duo if kippa doesn't want to play stat pads. Look for Beso to play some marine this year as well. Torch is another up and comer who's slowly developing into a great player, played with him last year too and once he gets his stupid deaths under control he'll be a very competent marine. Typhoon is improving every day since he's been back too and is a very vocal player who can lead during the week. Oh and mizzouse. <b>Cavebeast alert: </b> Torch - he has two weaknesses, he's friends with Metal and he dies some unfortunate deaths. The second weakness can be corrected by being more active and playing closer to the leader til he feels confident enough to solo.

👥 Player Notes

95
This rating is if herc stays active/keeps caring all season. There's no doubt Herc is one of the best if not the best marine to ever play. Looking forward to the damage he can do after he shakes the rust.
90
If Sam can get back to form he's a scary marine, and everyone knows it. The deadly mouse aim is almost untouchable 1v1
88
I could probably better if I wasn't so busy all the time and could sign in and get my aim back. I'll most likely just shot call once we get into battle as normal and let kippa do the main leading.
85
Kipper hasnt' played too often in the past few years, but leading on mostly the same maps isn't a skill that fades away. Still close to the top tiers of medics as well
85
Sabo had some impressive performances last year and I was very excited to see him join. He put up some decent numbers on a below average squad with Riley leading. Hopefully, he can transfer that momentum into some big moments for TC2
84
Water hasnt' been super active through FI either, but he's always been a very solid medic. look for him to play some marine this year as well.
83
Mercy has the potential to be a very good Medic if he were to consistently play, he's played some big moments on snakes and idc/rejects over the years and shined bright, this season should be no different. He's dominated in every zone he's ever played in so here's to Sk being the last chapter.
80
If splittah can capture some old magic he can be a very deadly marine as well. Splittah has always been one of the better marines to ever play but has fallen out of the conversation in the last few years. Wondering if he'll blow up again and have some riveting performances.
80
Mizz, when he tries, can be very good, he's probably a better medic but he prefers to play marine. He can surprise a lot of people when he's on his game but sometimes fails to be consistent.
79
Up and comer who has a very bright future if he keeps learning from the OG sk players. I'm lead to believe he was very good in ctf as well, which is easy to work with as a leader.
79
If Jared ever signed on he could be good, he had some very good games for BBB last year and seems to play well under the slower pace. His mouse aim is very deadly when he's active and on his game.
78
Zack was an above average marine back in the day, haven't seen him log on once since backs brought back USL though. Rating can go up with play time.
