it's a lot closer to gst so I need to make some updated predictions..
1)Male: it turns out qes and scarkaiotic will be doing mixed gst and without them on dot's idev they have no chance of winning. Therefore, it's pretty simple that anyone with a brain would know that Male now has the best shot.
2)Velocity: with the addition of Jack Sparrow from Alumni I can't see them losing to any team other than Male. Unless Male gets banned for a sexist name???
3)Primel: yes, the ghosts of Lemirp are back and stronger than ever. However, since idev gst is clearly much harder to win than mixed, they won't place 2nd this time.
16)Profound: I can't see profound getting 1st rounded now that super is busy on gst day and will not participate. Their replacement for him is actually OPEN right now, so if you want to join please pm crime(profound) in game.
