s1ke's ESEA Season 29 Intermediate Pre-Season Power Rankings

Date of write-up: 9/9/18

All rankings are based off the assumption that the rosters found in this spreadsheet are correct: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1urtAQzPl4GFmQmml4WWYCBEF2fqoRnxFktTu2IMId1Q/edit#gid=600775827

I'm not trying to spend 5 hours doing power rankings so ill keep them mostly based off of my personal knowledge of the players.




1.) black swan black

Scouts: ninjax & Kryptonite
Soldiers: jayhyunpae & dylan
Demo: ether
Med: charis

A lot of invite level talent here, most notably Kryptonite who made playoffs multiple seasons on Velocity eSports playing soldier.  While he is offclassing, I think him and ninjax will make a really solid scout combo.  The rest of these players I'm pretty sure either have low invite experience or haven't played invite in the past but could.


2.) MyAnimeList Dark Dynasty

Scouts: trip & Mikey
Soldiers: Kev777 & Happycool
Demo: aZn
Med: brulee (temporary)

Despite being a proven invite soldier, trip also proved last season his skills on scout by winning IM.  All these players are invite level on their mains but they do appear to be playing classes they haven't previously played in invite.  Whether they will play their mains for playoffs is unknown, but regardless I think they'll do well.


3.) Muscle March

Scouts: dippidy & shiny
Soldiers: dongus & nazara
Demo: chunkey
Med: BIG CAT

This team looks pretty strong, especially in the demo and scout category.  Shiny is one of the best up and coming scouts there is and chunkey is an experienced player with invite capable skills on the black man class.  I'm not too familiar with the rest of their lineup, as I've only seen nazara play on scout in esea and have little to no experience with dongus & BIG CAT.



4.) Kronge Realm

Scouts: nomi & legit
Soldiers: skele_knight & mnonsta
Demo: alley
MEd: reyylin

This team just looks good all around and features a couple players I'm pretty sure have been with each other for quite some time now.  Their scout combo stands out to me the most from other teams and with monsta and alley I think their combo will be extremely strong.



5.)
