Eventually will put up more precise standings, and explanation, but for now you only get this
Tier 1
Tier 2
Tier 3
Tier 4
Tier 5
Tier 6
Tier 7
Aside from most things, which I guess will be common, this has a couple bold predictions. We'll see how it will work out.
Since it was requested by www3 and I have some free time on my hands, explanations (assume this was made before r1 began, some things may be a bit off right now.):
before everything: a lot of this will go down similar to last war. Teams that have few strong decks and/or incredibly strong general decks will gain something.
Expected Position: 1-2
Too many strong decks at the moment, market prices are slightly favourable, but not by much. Strong against every other strong team. Strong against every team.
Expected Position: 1-4
It's
, we all know it. And I am in it, so we're definitely winning. If it didn't suffer against almost every other high tier team, it would be a top 3 lock. Market prices don't help much, but compared to last war they are an improvement.
Expected Position: 2-6
I mean, the predicted top 3 being
should not surprise anyone. Darkness is good, but may suffer a lot from market prices this time around. If they get going strong in the first 3 rounds, (imagine, 7-1 in the first 2, 4-0 in the 3rd) and they get a hand against
from other teams I can see Darkness winning, but it's off reach for the moment?
Expected Position: 3-7
Water came 3rd last war, and a lot of it is due to JCJ's incredibly creative deckbuilding. A lot of tools have been revealed and I don't expect an improvement from there, but I guess they can repeat themselves, or just come short of it. Kind of too weak vs air to win the whole war. Possibly one of the teams that can gain more from only 4 duels per round.
Expected Position: 4-6
Entropy is historically strong, and more upgrades don't hurt ever. I don't expect anything new on the deckbuilding side, just classical entropy strong decks.
/
Expected Position: 4-10 because they can't both place 9th
Both elements with very very powerful decks, kind of crippled by market prices. Not much to say, except maybe earth may not really like even more upgrades, but I guess they're slowly moving away from EQ at this point.
Expected Position: 6-9
I honestly don't know what to expect from time, probably a small improvement over last war. Time never places too far behind anyway.
Expected Position: 5-10
Life will be doing better than other times. An excellent team, good market prices, a few strong decks. Everything seems to work in Life's favour, and under the right conditions. they could get top 5. It's still life and I don't expect anything above 5th really, but there is a need to keep an eye on.
Expected Position: 7-9
Bold Call, teams will finally learn to adapt around gravity and this combined with the rise of another team (life) could make gravity suffer. If anything goes as usual it's an upper half team, but this I can see gravity suffering this war
Expected Positions: 10-12
*coming*
Expected Positions: 11-12
Market prices kill a team with not enough strong cards to get a big vault, until in-element cards cost less for their own team light will suffer too hard.
