#1) Lowlife Thugs: Starting off the season with a solid 2-0 against DW and OL. Last weeks match vs OL was without a doubt my best match in a long time due to the fact that bills just choked vs the chiefs again cause me to be in a blinded rage.(18-3) Champion popped off and even though his stats dont show it(7-6) was very good as a demo. Watching the vod he rarely missed an RPG and held most chokes with the demo charges.

Plugging pistor in over revenge was also a solid move by us as he neutralized OL's best marine(Colossal) holding him in 1v1 situations. Hopefully nos doesnt ditch us for tarkov vs our match up vs FUP as I see us ending this week 4-0.

#2) One Love(2-1): These guys popped off vs hellcast despite the major server lag that occured but fell short vs LLT last week, it didnt help dictator sov denied NTs so Sol couldnt play xd. Dave had the best game out of the team (9-8) against us as most of the time him and I handshook at west mid(both went back for heals 2x) Pandy also played well despite having most deaths(5-10).

This week I look for Colossal to have a bounce back and probably best game of the season vs FUP. They'll realy need him to show out and break the battles open vs a passive FUP group. If kaga shows and sol plays I see these guys running away and staying the 2nd seed. If sol and kaga dont show then theyre 2nd seed is quite possibly in jeopardy.

#3) FUP(2-0): Last week these guys squeezed in a win against DW winning by 5. K(10-5), ER(8-4) and The Mountain(8-5) were the keys to maintaining the lead for a majority of the match capitalzing on poor positioning by DW's meds. These 3 will need to be on their game vs both OL and LLT this week as this is their true test to see if they belong in the #2 seed discussion.

If The Mountain shows he will once again be their best marine as he was primarily the one breaking open battles minus raver's flank on GB last week. He'll need to show up and show out if these guys want to win vs OL and stay competitive vs LLT.

#4) Dead Weight(0-3): Definitely a disappointing start to the season as I dont think any of us predicted that they'd be winless going into week 3. Tactical(7-3) and TG(9-6) have been their most consistent players and will continue to be called on. This week they only have Hellcats on the schedule so this should be a good time for them to get that W.

Fausto and Sabo should use this opportunity to be as aggressive as possible to help unrust further. Once these guys get back into the swing of things I see them pulling an almost reverse sweep of previous weeks match ups. But they'll also need help from their medics positioning as well as possibly in certain match ups having ernie who imo is the best AT revert to marine for more fire power.

#5) Hellcats(0-2): septicemia aka Renal pulled out the AT last week which I feel like he needs to marine, especially while leading. He is without a doubt HC's best marine and deadliest player so he needs to step up big for these guys and AT is only viable if you have strong marines around you.

This is probably HC's best map if im being honest, unfortunately they play LLT this week, I look for jimbo the legend slayer(ER's self-proclaimed nemesis) to pop off and he stares down Ayaya and Sov and locks in!

Nice eric.

I aint mad at the support medal lol. You been doing well.

Fun read. I'd hope for a different mindset of inclusion by everyone.
Maybe time to review the wait period rule again. No wait period for first squad joined imo.

"Fausto and Sabo should use this opportunity to be as aggressive as possible to help unrust further. Once these guys get back into the swing of things I see them pulling an almost reverse sweep of previous weeks match ups."

agreed... monumental pickups for the team

Honestly I liked the idea of what ernie said in the commentary which was make the wait period happen after you leave a squad.

Edit: But it also depends on which is easier for chris to code if its just make it null for first squad joined thats fine too
