Strongest GST Teams: Not really predictions, just team strengths. It's different (?) Mixed Only, I might to iDev later. 1.) Holy - Most people forget about Holy because they're not really active (which is the main issue they have currently, and the reason why I'm struggling to justify them as being placed so highly). However, they're a team that's been together for a long time, has chemistry, and individually are pretty strong. I think Holy has a good chance at being in the semifinals or finals. People to look out for: Aguzo, (haven't seen anyone GS in that team besides Aguzo) 2.) Deity - Garnering the most hype from the forums (deservedly so), I believe Deity and Holy are almost interchangeable in terms of strength. I decided to place Holy higher because I felt Deity is more consistent, but Holy has higher potential (one of the reasons why this isn't a predictions post but rather strength analysis). I think Deity is finals bound. People to look out for: Thallen, Skull 3.) Sith - While I do think Sith gets more flack than it deserves, they've slowly trickled downward in my strength list. The performances have been a mixed bag for Sith, often not being able to compete with the stronger Deity. GST is different. I think if they use the best available members they have, they might be able to compete with the teams above. I think Sith is a quarterfinal or semifinal placement, with relatively low finals chance. People to look out for: Exalt, Demrow 4.) Zezak - What initially started as a "fun" GST, turned out to be a strong GST. Zezak is kind of different from the teams above, because it wasn't supposed to be a dangerous team. We have iDevice players in the team, and the guild is filled with friends (Albanian friends ). Nonetheless, I think Zezak overall is balanced with potential to either go to finals, or not pass the quarterfinals. Strong team with high ceiling, and a low floor. People to look out for: David, Nell 5.) Creator - A smaller team that has racked up some bigger names. I see Creator going far with not much expectations from others, making some upsets happen. They're very balanced and I think some of their players have improved from previous GST. I can see them in quarterfinals or semifinals. People to look out for: iHercules, Rainmaker |

1) Deity Thallen will perform well like always, as long as skull doesn't die within 2 seconds and blame input lag we should be able to win. 2) Sith Sith is the only team I can see coming 2nd. They have some decent players, but depends who they end up using as core. If Kuz gets cored they'll definitely have a chance of taking out most teams, if not then I can see them getting knocked out early to a team with some delay. As long as demrow doesn't start calling people out for using trainers and bringing the team down they should perform as well as in practice. 3 Holy Can't see holy getting anything higher than 3rd. Obviously a strong team but unless Brett can finally pull off a final where he goes positive or anything higher than 12-24 I can't see them competing with Sith. 4) Zezak/Creator Zezak seems to be pretty strong, having someone like David on your team always makes it dangerous. Some delayers like santy could also make their team quite interesting, as long as she doesn't brainlessly c-spam. RM and John's speeding % could also raise their win chances. Creator seems like a joke team, but then again if people are predicting Holy to place 1st/2nd with people like Brett who manage to pull a hit ratio of 12-24 in the finals then anyone can make it.

I won't be giving any predictions due to the fact that this GST doesn't have one specific team that can run away with the title. Anything can happen and it all depends on the brackets. Though I can fairly say that a lot of people have been underestimating my whole team (Creator). I can say without a doubt that I am used to this because i've been in Alumni the past 3 years & i'm virtually unnoticeable compared to everyone in our great guild. Last GST my team wasn't even mentioned by anyone except for Dante and we went on to win third place. Brackets really do play a big part on what happens with your team which is why I firmly believe that GTEAM has as good of a shot at winning as my team. Calling teams a joke is just pure stupidity as any team has a chance at winning. This was shown previously when a GST similar to this one ended up having Northern Signs winning. So instead of trying to start a flame war, why don't we just calm down and have as fun of a GST as we can instead of being divas. Best of luck to every team that is going to participate.

Not gonna lie, Eko predictions seem the most accurate I've seen so far.
