It will be very interesting to see if the elven teams have enough staying power to keep their game up throughout the length of the cup. Having AV 7 may be rough this time.
But if I had to pick a single team, Overdose's DE look mighty fine. |

Well, I'd say all coaches have a 50/50 chance to win... Either they win, or they don't. |

As much as it pains me to say, Purplegoo is right. If by some freak a few of the favorites meet in the first 2 rounds then all bets are off. Handicaps can play an important part too. Some teams will get hurt by Virus, others will get ripped up by Greatest.
This is gonna be great |

it will be me with my chaos, just need some lucky draws the first 2-3 games and some cash to get the players then my team is over all good.
With nice ST+, AG+ and enuff to tackle elves and enuff bashing to to deal with dwarf/orcs.

It won't be me - I only entered my stupid dwarf team to help get to the 512 mark. I'd really like to see an undead team walk away with the win, personally. |

Thanks, Jan, but they got trashed in their two last prep games. |

I think this time, with all ko games and no recover beetween qualifiers and main round, av7 teams have no chances at all.
I'm so smart I entered the Cup with wood elves ....... |
