I wouldnt put so much trust in fin's LU

[Aniky]

At least 5 of those captains have no way of fielding a team anyway and have no idea why they even signed up for it, when obviously noone is active at their scene, as for top teams, depends on what UK can bring up, obviously ROSS, sqzz, razz, medixza, koop will probably play, depending on the 6th they get and if they put some effort into it, it will be hard for anyone to take it, Fin lineup isnt so strong, but they re the biggest nerds, since they prac on daily basis, if Germany will be setup good as they used to prac before lan, they can prolly reach top 3.

[Dest!Ny]

judging by the lineups that have been declared

 

1 GER

2 NL

3 PL

3 FIN/BEL

 

non-declared teams that could make it:

CAN

FRA (no idea who theyll bring)

UK (prolly quite a solid LU)

 

//

US 'misses' joker/end

SWE misses nuggan/jonas

ICE doesnt have enough solid players for 6o6 same for EE (afaik)

maybe CZE has a chance solely on the ammount of experience together? although LU isnt declared
