Breakdown by Emperor (Season 17)

Rate Analysis:
No Rob? No kaga? Serious downgrades across the board this season.
Breakdown
So let me get this straight: Stiletto Nails loses Rob Zomby and The Goldfish. Then they keep Aku. And then they also recruit Pant? If they are trying to go 0-5, then they're well on their way. Someone from SN should ask Hiruzen how he felt when he passed on Orochimaru for 4th Hokage. Oh wait, you can't, cause Orochimaru killed him. All joking aside, a couple of late pre-season pickups in the form of Splittah and Champion have me wondering what kind of damage this squad can do this season. Mecca and Torch had me thinking there was definitely some potential here to do some damage, now you have to wonder if they might be indeed deserve to be in that conversation for top squad. Off the top of my head, just spit balling here, their potential lineup could look like: CC (Med) Pant/Jane (Med) Chris danny/gary Jordan Splittah Scarface ExTreMe(1)/Typhoon They should match up really well with any of the other squads out there. They'll need to mesh together though. Definitely some new pieces coming together for the first time. I've seen them SB a few times and they look a little inconsistent and sloppy to say the least. This was before the additions of Split and Champ though, and maybe they're still getting used to the pace of the new KS10 map. The two toughest matches for them will arguably be Purple Cobras and friend. They face White Goodman and company Week 1 on the new KS10 map. Then they have to play friend on Kliest's Ridge, while being the away team and most likely Titan. These will be two tough matches for sure. Even with that though, you have to assume if they do manage to win the other three matches on their schedule, they'll be in great shape come playoff time. And there's really no guarantees this season. If they mesh quick enough and get the chemistry down, they could be 5-0 with the #1 seed looking down on the rest of the league.
