Aside from needing me to return to their roster (lol), NR's in a whole heap of trouble this season. Callups to CEVO-P simply because their near the top of what's left in CEVO-A, NR has a long season of getting stomped on again and again ahead of them, and would need a super-human effort to get more than 1 or 2 wins. Their best chance probably lies in the future nDamage matchup, but that's about as good as it gets for the NR gang. Good luck to them regardless, I'll be rooting for 'em :)

I'll be honest, I'm a bit out of the loop when it comes to sR - I recognize a few names from the old HSE squad, but how strong sR is and how well they play together as a team are unknowns to me. Either way, I don't see them fighting for a playoff spot or anything, but they also won't be at the bottom of the ladder, either.

Sporting a few friendly faces (not to mention a new name, gg rk), FF has a chance to take that next step in the competitive TF2 world, albeit in a somewhat trial-by-fire format. They're going to get smacked around this season, there's no point in denying that, but if they keep their heads and play hard in the matchups where they have a chance, they just might learn a few things and get that much better for next season.

4G, formerly focaL, is in that grey area between "teams that'll get stomped" and "teams that'll get stomped by some and stomp others". It's important that they head into every match with the right mentality - there's no chance of them knocking off Pandemic or anything, so smaller victories are what they should gun for, be it holding off the better team for a time or whatever. They're also going to win some matches without too much trouble, and should try to take what they learn from their betters and apply it to their own gameplay.
