Top 12
Nah, might keep it now..
think we need a new top 12
Most of this has already been said, might aswell put my own opinions in there, my first post, and probably my last, enjoy an unbiased view of the top 12. Apologies for not being up-to-date on some of the smaller alliances that i dont speak to or know about too much!
1 - Eviction Notice - SWIM
They are power houses, no doubt of their deep pockets, multiple world winners, very organized, good fighters, good players, good strategy (however much criticism they receive, but it works, no one can doubt that), they are in for the long haul, they have a winning streak and i think they will stop at nothing to keep that going. Clear potential world winners without a doubt. Not much more can be said.
2 - Quality Over Quantity - SWIM
Anti-MRA, like to keep things small, elite and closely knit. Against recruiting everyone and everyone who does join must colonize in their ocean. This type of playing makes them incredibly powerful against alliances with almost double the people as they are coordinated, fierce and do not back down. They have no major wars currently, yes i say currently as it seems they are going to run into someone and its not going to be pretty. However, they are a clear potential world winner and aside EN have a great chance of taking the money on this one. I would not take these guys lightly as they work very well together, unlike most alliances i have seen and i would not like to be on the receiving end of some of the very skilled people they have in their ranks.
3 - Eviction-Notice
See #1
4 - Written In Blood - SWIM
These guys can be seen as the 3rd power in this world. They are an MRA (Plain to see) however have some very good players in their ranks. It can be seen that the blood family have some inactives and because of their size they have spanned the entire 55, they have a very filled core and taking them head on will give someone a headache. They are a formidable force and if they sort to their weaker/inactive players who have no interest in playing they can be a very very good alliance and could potentially make EN or QoQ have a few sleepless nights. A potential world winner, however their pact with EN will see them taking the fight to QoQ alongside EN, can QoQ pull it off? If QoQ/En is taken out, bloods will have to fight the winner for their potential crown.
5 - Nuns With Guns - FLOAT THEN SINK
Looked very promising, they had the potential with the right diplomacy and provided players in their ranks to fight they could of had a serious impact on how the world would turn out, they had the power to who would win the world. However, as i am unbiased to every alliance on this list, they will sink after a while. They suddenly had a bit of a fight with Bloods, and even though they were eager to show themselves and everyone on externals that they were stronger than what people thought, spoke a big fight, yet could not deliver. About 10-15 of their members know their way round a timer and were aggressive and actually fought, the rest disappeared. They have some serious issues that they now need to address as they cannot be taken seriously anymore after what went down in the past few days. A few of their upmost best are either on VM or are quitting for RL reasons. Will float and then sink heavily when they are continually attacked and cannot handle it.
6 - Vanilla Ice - SWIM?
These guys are considered the dark horses in my eyes, they are from Sinope if i read correctly, they are very experienced, remind me of a smaller QoQ, they are planning on dominating their home ocean and i can see them going to be a very good fighting force, they are all in communication constantly and are a very good bunch of friends. I can see these guys being a problem for some big alliances if they are not taken seriously, however i put them as a SWIM with a question mark as i don't know how they will hold up if they of QoQ and then they revert their attention from the north to south as sparks seem to be flying from those two alliances.
7 - Cute But Psycho - FLOAT
I'm being harsh on these guys as they are very good defenders, most are very good attackers and have the potential to be great, they are JTT+The Shaft merged into one new alliance, after JTT's leaders went crazy and ghosted/quit/VM/purposefully banned they needed a fresh start and thats what they have. I can see these guys being a pain for EN/Bloods however i think the same fate may hit them once again if Bloods/EN focus on them like they did last time, i would love to see these guys kick some as i know a few people in here and i know they have potential but the reality of the matter is can they outdo JTT in their ability to finally overcome EN/Bloods attacks?
8 - The Hammer - FLOAT
King of the Rim they say; after these guys defeated Dragon Hunters, dont know the details but they have so much space to know just grow, cannot see them making a real impact on the server outcome or to any alliances right now, rumoured that they are part of EN, wouldn't surprise me for i dont know for sure, i swear i saw one time where it was announced they was, so, lets just roll with that. Would be a good idea for these guys to build some long range defence for EN, could aid in their defence, however i just dont see this guys flourishing or going downhill for a very long time, thats why i'm going to give them a float.
10 - Blood Frenzy
See #4
11 - Blood Thirsty
See #5
12 - Independant - SINK
They seem to be in EN's back yard, they have lost a few cities to them and it seems like if EN tried they would be wiped pretty soon, very bad placement for these guys and i dont see them lasting that long, basically would give EN a free basis to stretch their legs into.
