Top 6

[dr]
[EW]
[JOHN]
[MSI]
[be]
[Vz]

Possibly make it top 16
[rawr]
[vD]
[Call] - if they get QP
[BDV]
[spnv]

We will be playing with at least 2 people down due to thanksgiving if we play at all. This should be a euro tourney although I think [dr] and [JOHN] could pull off a gold. I'm routing for dr personally.

Having played them a lot now, I would call them a merge of the most recent KGYU and some tag players.

Smgzor
Umpy
Sb
Jen
Jatt
Animal

Those are some players I know are in the guild, but I think when we have played them the flagger has always been a guest. Certainly enough top ten players to do well in the monthly.

The monthly looks like a playstye clash to me. The euros seem pretty focussed on 3 monk builds with a lot of defense and spike, and the American guilds have a handful of pressure builds, one or two adren spike guilds, and a fair amount of gimmicks.

Any guild with Smgz and Umpy will kill people.

I'm really bad at predicting stuff. I think vZ dR and EW will def make top 8 though.

top 8 : vD,EW,The Catarsis,Spnv,tard,dR,vZ,uF,
top 16: tux,rawr,be,RiP,GWII,John,Hand,Roar

edit : made some changes not sure about vD but if they change paragon to ranger they can win by tactic against strong 8v8 euro guilds and make it for top8.

ill definately be watching [EW] if theyre taking the tournie seriously... theyve been my favourite guild since the start. Their backline seems have adapted the fastest to the recent skill updates and they run some great/nasty builds.

i also like [dR] they have very dynamic playstyles which is always fun to watch... alot of teams just dont know how to handle the way in which they switch the focus of the fight so unexpectedly. They dont seem to be overly strong in the straight on fight when they face highly defensive teams (probably why they split so much).

[vD] has always been a firm favourite of mine alongside [PnH] unfortunately with [PnH] gone and [vD] suffering from roster issues (the new roster just doesnt have that spark of quality like the old one) i am not expecting much from them...

most of all im looking forward to seeing the various monk builds being run... this AT will be a good indication of the success or failure of the last couple of updates...

will we see sin ganks?

[dR] if they don't get owned by Anet's servers again. Then [vZ], [EW], [vD]

I also think RIP is going to do pretty well.

Yea im going to have to side with vZ on this one, dR does just make too many mistake, its like they are right on the edge, but not meshing right or something. Also if EW plays maybe another top contender but with no clear shot winner as of now this should be a fun bunch of matches.
