  1. S28 IM POWER RANKINGS
  2. ---------------------
  3.  
  4. 1. Faint Gaming
  5. scouts - sandblast & laz / soldiers - slemnish & BroKing / demoman - exile / medic - delete
  6. ---
  7. outside of delete, every player here is a seasoned, invite capable player, with half of the players making playoffs in invite multiple times. even though there are some big personalities on this team, and some of them are offclassing which may disrupt their chemistry, they are looking like early favorites.
  8.  
  9. players to watch - sandblast, slemnish, and laz
  10.  
  11. 2. mr_popo_rocks
  12. scouts - John_Milter & n3 / soldiers - tambo & reimu / demoman - vaati / medic - mr_popo
  13. ---
  14. not much to say here. a largely identical team that won s25 and s27, while coming in second s26. see the pattern? i can't wait to see the epic showdown between two of the highly regarded medics in IM this
  15. season; mr_popo vs. delete.
  16.  
  17. players to watch - John_Milter and reimu
  18.  
  19. 3. Kings Crew
  20. scouts - okiewaker & change / soldiers - phelon & pauldogg / demoman - kuestif / medic - lucrative
  21. ---
  22. not only does this team have some of the best aliases in all of tf2, but they are also pretty damn good. this team has played with each other for a while now, and it looks like it's all coming together for them. they should have a really great season.
  23.  
  24. players to watch - okiewaker and pauldogg
  25.  
  26. 4. WXVY Division
  27. scouts - reece & tony / soldiers - fabulous & lights / demoman - stock / medic - drake
  28. ---
  29. this team boasts not only a sick clothing brand (WHICH YOU CAN FIND ON WXVYDIVISION.COM USE PROMO CODE REECE TO GET 20% NEXT PURCHASE) but also one of the best combos this season. with that said, a lot of the success of this team will be predicated on how well their flank will be able to do, considering that both lights and tony have limited experience playing at this level. with that said, i think they will live up to expectations, and this team will be one of the best in IM this season
  30.  
  31. players to watch - fabulous and stock
  32.  
  33. 5.Granma makin me fat
  34. scouts - mak & newspeak / soldiers - digi & edward / demoman - mausy / medic - ?
  35. ---
  36. this is largely the same team as last season's RDHP, replacing playmo with mak. they would have likely made playoffs last
  37. season had they not been hit with some unfortunate roster issues (which unfortunately seems to already be happening), but I think
  38. they will pull through this season and make the postseason this time around.
  39.  
  40. players to watch - newspeak and mausy
  41.  
  42. 6. Every Villain is Lemons
  43. scouts - emo & ? / soldiers - faust & reflecto / demoman - shyl0 / medic - slicerogue
  44. ---
  45. this team has very strong projectile classes, with faust and reflecto playing multiple seasons together, and shyl0 being a very strong demoman. however, they still need to fill a scout role, and their existing scout, while being an up and comer, has only one season of experience. they're a difficult team to rank because of their scouts, and could fall pretty significantly depending on how good their scouts play.
  46.  
  47. players to watch - reflecto, shyl0, and faust
  48.  
  49. 7. AyyLmao Happyboi Squad
  50. scouts - bwelp & uber / soldiers - christie & alexandros / demoman - alex.exe / medic - happybob
  51. ---
  52. they have played with each other in the past before, are all solid players, and i think will be more motivated to try hard this season, so I could see them this high. with that said, these ranks around here are all pretty close, and it's hard to say around this area.
  53.  
  54. players to watch - uber & b4nny.jr
  55.  
  56. 8. DRAGONWARRIOR12
  57. scouts - tatuwah & dippidy / soldiers - bark & whoopi / demoman - chunkey / medic - BIG_CAT
  58. ---
  59. even though this team seems like a meme, friend team on paper, they have actually played with each other for quite some time now, and are loaded with talent. their success will probably be determined how hard they try, how much they scrim, etc. if they try hard, i could see them bumped up a couple spots.
  60.  
  61. players to watch - whoopi, chunkey, and dippidy
  62.  
  63. 9. chinchilla champions
  64. scouts - dev & link_1012 / soldiers - crab_f & kia / demoman - hedge / medic - figsy
  65. ---
  66. this team has the potential to be a sleeper team imo. dev & link are strong scouts, kia is a solid pocket, and hedge is hedge. they still have to prove themselves, but I could see this team doing better than expected.
  67.  
  68. players to watch - hedge, link, and dev
  69.  
  70. 10. kronge realm
  71. scouts - apt & marquis / soldiers - skele & ? / demoman - alley / medic - burko
  72. ---
  73. losing m0nsta & n0mi will hurt this team quite a bit, as they were arguably their best players, but they still have the coordination and talent to place well this season.
  74.  
  75. players to watch - skele & alley
  76.  
  77. 11. Slime Time
  78. scouts - goldfish & jetz / soldiers - frickmynick & mono72 / demoman - drp / medic - beelthazus
  79. ---
  80. this team doesn't seem to scrim much, but individually, they are all pretty talented. not much else to say. most players on this team have sort of dipped in and out of seasons, so we'll see if they are able to stick through the entirety of this one.
  81.  
  82. players to watch - goldfish
  83.  
  84. 12. Midnight Society
  85. scouts - ebsikl & perfection / soldiers / shaim & dunker / demoman - aash / medic - yoona
  86. ---
  87. s27 open champions with a new roster. however, same thoughts as above, all solid players, but a team that is full of players that have largely been in and out of playing that doesn't scrim much. you also have some big personalities on this team that *may* cause problems down the road. with that said, if they scrim hard and their team doesn't completely die, they could be placed much higher than this. i just think that scenario is unlikely
  88.  
  89. players to watch - ebsikl, aash, and yoona
  90.  
  91. 13. UwUcrew
  92. scouts - mastrej & wanderlust / soldiers - SpaceCadetHX & trizza / demoman - georgi / medic - rebite
  93. ---
  94. this is a decent team that has experience working with each other in the past. depending on how much the two teams above try and stick together, i could see this team passing both of them.
  95.  
  96. players to watch - georgi and masterj
  97.  
  98. 14. night dogs
  99. scouts - msh & monkeyjedi / soldiers - brian & nazara / demoman - ? / medic - reylin
  100. ---
  101. well rounded, good players that have some potential to pass the teams above. I'm not familiar enough with them to say any more than that.
  102.  
  103. players to watch - nazara & monkeyjedi
  104.  
  105. ---
  106. don't know of the other players or teams, so I'm not going to bother ranking them. also didn't rank Sporadic eSports.
