[SIZE=5][B]GROUP 1[/B][/SIZE]


[B]1. OVERZEALOUS[/B]
MessiN ~ vermilion ~ ziggy ~ seek ~ Oizo ~ Mayo

After taking out SBL-A fairly convincingly in the group stages and managing to outshine decibel in the finals who are now quite awkwardly playing Main, they will be out for blood topping the group with what I believe will be a close game against Quickplay, both teams have their fair share of standout players but with Quickplay recently undergoing several roster changes I think Overzealous will have both the chemistry and sharps to take the group. Clever and sharp, MessiN will most definitely be the player to watch with ziggy not far behind him.

BBK's PTW: ziggy
JSCI's PTW: MessiN


[B]2. QUICKPLAY[/B]

delgrosso ~ jediscience ~ magnum ~ rf_ ~ risen`sk ~ galvanize

After losing two of their most valued players (emtech and opiate) I honestly didn't think this team would be able to survive, however, with the recent pickups of rf_ and magnum Quickplay have grown in experience and are playing better than ever. This team has the potential to take out their group if all the boys are in top form, though with current SBL-A winners Overzealous, the young, hungry and potentially dangerous Abstract as well as the Voxe girls in contention it will take them all they've got.

BBK's PTW: jediscience
JSCI's PTW: rf_


[B]3-4. ABSTRACT GAMING[/B]
grove ~ Lasoya ~ skitzRAWR ~ Syniztar ~ Zodiac ~ Kaleb

These guys are a very dedicated team with alot of potential, and are more often than not in a server together. If they've been using this time efficiently they will no doubt be a team to look out for. Grove will undoubtedly go large in most if not all of their games but if his boys can't step up to the plate they will have a very hard time getting through what looks to me like the most evenly matched pool in the competition.

BBK's PTW: Syniztar
JSCI's PTW: grove


[B]3-4. VOX EMINOR FEMALE[/B]
jaydee ~ grumpybear ~ maddy ~ kiRa ~ siren ~ lozza

These girls put in alot of effort and have been practicing fairly hard in recent weeks, with their new teammates siren and lozza, it may take a bit of time to bring the two of them up to speed but with the four original members directing them i'd be lying if I said there's no chance for them to do well in the competition, especially with the Voxe boys there to help them with just about anything they'd ever need to know about the game. Maddy will be wearing the pants in all of her games, expect her to do extremely well on the scoreboard.

BBK's PTW: maddy
JSCI's PTW: jaydee


[SIZE=5][B]GROUP 2[/B][/SIZE]


[B]1. SUBMISSIVE[/B]
ryza ~ shirobu ~ tuzhel ~ gary ~ oxy ~ theone

On paper, I think Submissive are looking like the favorites to take out the group with the only team coming close being RENOWN. With no shortage of experience, aim for days and smarts as far as the eye can see, it's no secret that these guys are going to set the bar considerably high and will be chopping through their games faster and harder than stezzy chops sluts. Look to tuzhel to pull off some very clever plays and ryza to amaze with terrifying aim.

BBK's PTW: ryza
JSCI's PTW: tuzhel


[B]2. RENOWN[/B]
feetman ~ froxzen ~ Szentigrade ~ triket ~ zypheX  ~ ozxtreme ~ av1ate

With some big fraggers in their posession in the form of feetman and ozxtreme, if these guys are playing well on the day I can see them taking convincing victories over throwDown and Mad Kentz for the second spot in the group. That's not to say that the other boys will struggle to contribute, on the contrary, each of these players has a wealth of experience behind them and each will be able to bring something great to the table.

BBK's PTW: feetman
JSCI's PTW: Szentigrade


[B]3. THROWDOWN[/B]
qnx ~ Locky ~ blkcat ~ slip ~ xet ~ Falco

throwDown have the potential to cause many an upset, but being a newly formed team isn't something that's gonna work in their favor. The players in this team have alot of experience, and will be putting up a brave fight against Submissive and RENOWN however with these two teams blocking their path down the yellow brick road, 3 is looking like their number. Mad Kentz shouldn't be a problem for these boys unless they have a particular weakness for slut teams.

P.S. QNX/jburnt16 is burnt. (<3)

BBK's PTW: slip
JSCI's PTW: QNX


[B]4. MAD KENTZ[/B]
paramore ~ nick ~ requiem ~ shadyhamster ~ shizzam ~ zer0 ~ w0mbat

Mad Kentz will probably be exactly that after playing the teams in this group, im afraid these boys pale in comparison to their group-mates and will be getting dominated in every game. Unless of course zer0 and requiem (assuming they are the same two players I have in mind) drop massive bombs for them, I dont see them getting a single win, sorry guys.

BBK's PTW: shadyhamster (lol)
JSCI's PTW: requiem


[SIZE=5][B]GROUP 3[/B][/SIZE]


[B]1. CONSPIRACY[/B]
hybn ~ deadsouL ~ daskyz ~ mty ~ tuckzzz ~ jolz (?)

Though she has been playing for them quite often recently i'm not sure if iolite/jolz will be playing for these lads in the competition, either way Conspiracy are probably the most commited and dedicated team in Amateur and should probably already be playing Main, hugely underrated, these cunts are sharp and will take out their group with a close games against both Eternal Fire and the Wizards. If the Conspiracy boys have learned from their past mistakes in the recent SBL-A season and can keep their composure in the competition environment, then I believe they can take the top of the group though it'll be far from a stroll in the park. Look to mty and deadsouL to pretty much kill everyone that's put up against them with the utmost aggression.

BBK's PTW: hybN
JSCI's PTW: mty


[B]2-3. ETERNALFIRE[/B]
heretic ~ kemicaL ~ nhaur ~ rApture ~ xyphz

Eternal Fire are basically a team of amazingly sharp players, and will have a close game with Wizards who can also aim up a giant shitstorm. However, ive heard through the grapevine that these lads have been struggling to perform in scrims, some will argue that this means absolutely nothing in a competition environment but it is also indicative of progress to a certain degree. If these boys can pull out the smarts and keep the Wizards guessing, they should take the game. Fuck NetcodeIlluminati, if kemicaL is awping, all you'll need to do is watch and learn.

BBK's PTW: heretic
JSCI's PTW: kemicaL


[B]2-3. WIZARDS[/B]
shadox ~ jam ~ kreator ~ chair ~ vert1k ~ makaze

Not a team I know too much about, individually they've been around for a while and have alot of experience and knowledge to contribute but I think they're a fairly new (and apparently, inactive) team that will have a bit of a hard time keeping up with the more experienced Eternal Fire and the dedicated and mostly well-pracced Conspiracy. We think it'll come to a close game between these lads and Eternal Fire for second place and ulitmately, survival.

BBK's PTW: kreator
JSCI's PTW: Chair


[B]4. BOUND[/B]
zeku_ ~ xert ~ shamp ~ enzoop ~ dhil

BOUND lack any sort of significant experience, pair that with the terrible luck of being placed in what is arguably the competition's group of death I think they'll take a loss from every team they come up against due solely to the fact that collevtively the teams they're up against probably make for the most experienced group in Amateur right now. Not only will they take the wooden spoon, but they'll be hit several times in the head with it as the season progresses. Bad luck boys :(

BBK's PTW: dhil
JSCI's PTW: zeku_


[SIZE=5][B]GROUP 4[/B][/SIZE]


[B]1. MIBR[/B]
od1n ~ Wazang ~ Zakk[t] ~ mnk ~ beano



BBK's PTW:
JSCI's PTW: od1n


[B]2-3. BE4STMODE[/B]
azza ~ EluzN ~  Parko ~ cbR ~ ra!n ~ WOK ~ boh

Considerably new team with a considerably old name, based on the lineup alone BE4STMODE look set to beat everyone in this group bar mibr. I see a well-matched game coming between these boys and YoueNvy for second place in the group and if BE4STMODE can get into the heads and frustrate the YoueNvy boys they'll win comfortably. Azza has improved a fuckload over the past few weeks and will most likely be shitting on heads every game along with Parko who I believe is greatly underrated.

BBK's PTW:
JSCI's PTW: cbR


[B]2-3. YOUENVY[/B]
xecute ~ trix ~ JonXolus ~ BBK[S] ~ shanksta ~ fishy

A strong and consistent team that have managed to keep the same lineup in spite of a certain raging player that could potentially cause problems within the team, they're all mates with each other and I think these guys will have both the chemistry and aim to overcome Crossfire and though a close game, may even take out BE4STMODE though it will take all they have for these boys to stay composed in order to take that second spot from them. Shanksta, if playing as he usually does, will be popping heads with ease along with the drastically improved BBK v2.0.

BBK's PTW: shanksta (modest mouse)
JSCI's PTW: shanksta


[B]4. CROSSFIRE[/B]
Milopeach ~ peetyG ~ delz ~ gomez ~ planet ~ xufenn ~ iron

A decent team that's been around for quite a while now, very consistent and well organized these guys will have no problems in terms of preparation though in-game they may struggle to match up to other teams in this group when it comes to aim (particularly YoueNvy and mibr)

BBK's PTW:
JSCI's PTW: peetyG
