Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,
We saw the end of day 1 a few hours ago and since the world is yet to spark to life, let me start by predicting my top12 6.
Hopefully the forums will start buzzing and the world may be interesting in days to come.
As the BP is not even close to being over, I'll be judging only on the basis of points, location and reputation. So, my predictions may be off the mark, still here goes,
1. Swag McBallers:- Currently at the top of rankings points wise; they are a bit spread in between 45 and 54, which in my opinion does not bode well as it makes them a target of many alliances in almost all parts of the world once bp ends. I have heard of a few of the players over there, but a vast majority (I mean a lot of players, considering they already have an academy) look to be dead weight, a characteristic possessed by most MRA. All in all, I think they need to stop recruitment policy, fire their recruiter and select a few gems they may have found out of the haystack they have gathered in their compound, plenty of time to do so (about 6 more days), then they might stand a chance to live long term. Verdict: FLOAT
2. Golden Rejects:- Sitting at second are Golden Rejects. I can't say why they are rejects, but looking at their alliance, consisting some well known players and a good core in 55, they are easily accepted in my prediction as one of the teams to pose a claim to glory. Points wise they have second best overall and same with avg points, an uncontested core (bar The Deadly Angels), and plenty of reputed players in the roster. Verdict: SWIM
3. The Mercenaries:- In third we have Mercenaries, who I believe are a good example of what an MRA looks like and were originally started for. As typical of an MRA they have recruited players left, right and center, which is a big negative. Other than that, they seem to have the largest number of players joining and leaving the alliance, either because the leadership are taking everyone in and then removing the trash (which I believe is to early to do so) or players leaving as they feel that the alliance is not good enough as it is right now. Either way, I don't think they are sending right message across the server and presenting themselves as a force to be reckoned with. Verdict: SINK
4. Kleos:- Kleos are one alliance I believe are appearing lower in the ranks than they should be. With the highest avg points per player, and a good enough core in 45, I think they are another team to look out for in the race to victory. They have the fastest growing players in the roster with proven credentials lead the team. And with plenty of fish in the ocean, with Swag McBallers, Myrmidons, and Raise Your Weapon in their midst, this is going to be the ocean where I believe action will happen and sparks will fly first. I do think Kleos have what it takes to come out on top, but everything is speculation at this point. Verdict: SWIM
5. Ojibwe:- At rank 5 we have Ojibwe, another team that's being potrayed at the wrong rankings. They seem to have gathered a good roster with some players I have heard the name of and some I have never heard of, but with plenty of game played nonetheless. Sitting in ocean 44, these people look like they have all the time in the world to grow up to be a big superpower going into the game. I think they will last long if nothing new comes up, we can only wait and watch. Verdict: SWIM
6. Myrmidons:- Myrmidons, currently at number 6 have a lot to do if they want to contend. They seem to have a good compact core at the dividing line of 44 and 45, but are real close to Kleos, Swag McBallers and Raise Your Weapons. Unfortunately I'm a noob and so know none of their players, but they don't appear as noob as me so I'll reserve judgement on their ability to fight. But what I can definitely say is that they'll have their work cut out for them end bps. Verdict: FLOAT
Be aware that I have tried not being harsh to any alliance, or biased to another to the best of my judgement, however it is virtually impossible to give totally fair treatment to all, so please forgive me if you don't share the same opinions as I do.
Cheers,
Archdude
