It Begins!
The Tournament has started and we still have eight more teams to review.
In the meantime, we can make picks for games between teams we have already seen:
Black Axe vs Deepwood Junkies:
As stated before, the Junkies are not quite in shape for a Major at this time. Black Axe is in shape.
Plorg's Pick: Black Axe by 2, no OT
Athel Loren Guardians vs Deadland Flashgitz
These Orcs don't have as much Tackle and DT as others but massive amounts of Mighty Blow could make up the difference.
With five handicaps and maybe a chainsaw these Orcs could feasibly make it through the first round.
Plorg's Pick: Deadland Flashgitz by 1 in OT

Hehehe. try to beat Jesperious and Petter please Ash.... unlike you I fear nasty chaos or orcs more than darkies!!! And don't worry about Webbe's bitter comments - he is just moody because he had some bad games recently. |

I think LRB5 Takes us is the darkhorse here, its a mean mean team, and are facing a no dp de team first round.
Can they win this (killing a lot of elves in the process) they stand with a good chance to do something big!!
Gooooooo Jesperius!!! |

Hard to say who will win. But I'm sure it won't be the skaven. |

No prob. I didn't look at any of the teams though, I just vote in all polls that frequently come up in Recent Forum Topics and as there isn't a "I don't care" option I voted for a random team instead. |

Looks like whoever wins the QF between ALG and Superheroes will be champion. I expect to see Petter, Pmg and ankkh as the other semi-finalists. |

The Dark Elves
Narggothrond Falcons
Coach: Ash
- Six SideStep Blodgers
- One annoying Thrower
- Two +ST
Game against LRB5 takes us is scheduled for "thursday, february the 22nd at 1AM bbtime (gmt +1)"
TR/TS is very close but preliminary scouting has LRB5 as the favorites.
The primary strength of these Dark Elves is the prevailing Blodge/SS.
The Chaos have plentiful Tackle and Claw to counter that.
Plorg's Pick: LRB5 takes us by 1 in OT
Drizzt Do'Urden's Loyals
Coach: Dalibor
- Two ST4 Witches
- Two MA8 AG5 Blitzers
- Four Diving Tacklers
TR/TS of 320/253 against Ultimate Superheroes 308/284.
The discrepancy comes from a high number of permanent injuries with an MNG Thrower on the Dark Elf team.
Giving a handicap with only 12 players (2 niggled) against PeteW's 14(2) with higher TS looks grim for the Drow.
Plorg's Pick: Ultimate Superheroes by 2, no OT
Evading Death
Coach: Topper
- One AG5 Leap Witch
- One AG6 Witch
- Three SideStep Guards
Urza's World has already defeated Evading Death 3-2.
The Chaos Dwarf
Kremlin Krushers
Coach: virdung
- One AG4 Bull Centaur
- Five Guard MB Dwarfs
- Four DP Hobgoblins
At 257/223 against Gnaw Thigh Clan's 224/202 in the first round, the Krushers are expected to win.
Both teams are suited to a fouling game but in this case it favors the CDs.
The winner will face Urza's World in round 2...
Plorg's Pick: 1st Round: Kremlin Krushers by 1, no OT
Plorg's Pick: 2nd Round: Urza's World by 2, no OT
