Strangle, KNF: Whiteboy, Legion, WhiteMike<br /><br />I still stand by my sentiment that Stall would&#039;ve been a better fit here.&nbsp; As a pure defender, he&#039;s about as good as they get.&nbsp; I understand that strangle thinks he can be an IDL defender, and he may be right.&nbsp; That being said, I don&#039;t think getting White is ever a bad pick.&nbsp; He definitely brings more versatility to the table, and can slot himself in at any position.&nbsp; I wasn&#039;t too surprised when he drafted WhiteMike, because I figured he and his brother were a package deal.&nbsp; The Legion pick was a bit surprising to me though, especially with someone like BloodStrike still on the board.&nbsp; I think Whiteboy/Blood/Strangle would have been significantly stronger than Strangle/Whiteboy/Legion, but what do I know?&nbsp; I&#039;ve only made the playoffs every year and won a Masterbowl.<br /><br />Hatred, SGS: Stallion, KillForce, Bloodstrike<br /><br />Hatred waited awhile to have a good draft, but he definitely made up for lost time.&nbsp; He couldn&#039;t really go wrong with White or Stall, and I think Stallion might actually be a better fit for him.&nbsp; Hatred plays a really good mid, and he and Stall are really brutal to try to score on.&nbsp; That being said, Ralph and I got 4 on them last night, so it isn&#039;t impossible.&nbsp; Then again, no IDL team has two of us (yet).&nbsp; I had Killforce as &quot;possibly the steal of the draft&quot; at pick 19, so to have him slide 4 spots further to 23 is just incredible.&nbsp; Then you add Blood to the mix, and it is a very complete team.&nbsp; The main lineup would appear to be Stallion/Hatred/Killforce, but if for some reason Killforce doesn&#039;t live up to the billing, something like Stallion/Blood/Hatred is even more frag heavy, but relies on Hate to run.&nbsp; Either way, a really, really good team, and probably the early-line favorite in the IDC.<br /><br />Doomguy, MD: Xenaero, Xyltol, Dew.<br /><br />As much as I want to like this team, I don&#039;t think I really do.&nbsp; There is a boatload of pressure on Dew, unless Dragan came come through big time as a runner.&nbsp; Their first 3 are pretty good fraggers, which always gives you a shot, but I think the lack of offensive firepower will prove their undoing in the end, especially in a division with Bones/Dev and Saber/X-Ray.&nbsp; I think Killforce at #22 could have made this team a lot better, especially since Dragan probably would have been available in round 3.<br /><br />Tai, KGB: Killingblair, Junior, Null<br /><br />I was a huge fan of the Blair pick at first, expecting him to be dedicated offense.&nbsp; I figured he would pick Blood in round 2, and have an upgraded version of last year&#039;s KGB squad that went to the conference championship.&nbsp; This team would have been really good.&nbsp; However, once he picked Junior at #21 instead of Blood, things began to look bleak.&nbsp; Tai is (in)famous for leaving D, and Blair is (in)famous for leaving mid.&nbsp; This might end up a disaster, but we&#039;ll find out in week 1.<br /><br />Humanbones, CTB: Dev, Higgs, Shadow_Ghost<br /><br />I absolutely love the Dev pick here.&nbsp; If they practice even half as much as most teams, they will be just as solid at the back as SGS is.&nbsp; Bones and Dev have been playing together for a long time (I think) and the chemistry shouldn&#039;t take long to develop.&nbsp; I thought Higgs was a bit of a reach in the second round, but in his incredibly limited action with EBL, he was a serviceable runner.&nbsp; CTB is built much the same way as that EBL team, so he should be in a position to succeed.&nbsp; Also, Denny was a great value pick in round 3.&nbsp; It wasn&#039;t long ago that this dude was an absolute star.&nbsp; If he is active, this team is ridiculously stacked, and the favorite in the WDC.<br /><br />RustInPeace, RR ([=&gt;): Gilgamesh, MassVC, Reckless.<br /><br />First off, that is an incredible tag.&nbsp; Secondly, this team is very good.&nbsp; My mock draft hit the nail on the head with Gilga going #6, so see that post for my feelings on their potential (hint: it&#039;s a good thing).&nbsp; Then, getting Mass in the second round had to make Rust a little giddy.&nbsp; I&#039;m a huge fan of rookie captains drafting former caps (see FLS when I took Ladna in round 2), and Their front 3 is a formidable lineup.&nbsp; Reck is also a very solid 4th, and if his ping stays reasonable, he could even crack the top 3. He&#039;s that good.<br /><br />RussianDumbass, PU or PDU: Turska, Ladna, Fastidious.<br /><br />Rus and pants is a match made in heaven, so I won&#039;t even elaborate on this.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think Ladna is an activity risk at all.&nbsp; He is around a lot, and when I played with him, he always (begrudgingly) practiced when I yelled at him.&nbsp; Rus was also on that team, and the two of them carried a then unskilled, pingy LB to the playoffs.&nbsp; They can work.&nbsp; Add in the Fast factor, and you have yet another very competent team.&nbsp; Whether or not they can stand up to EBL remains to be seen, but I like what Rus did here.<br /><br />Nostar, WAD: Chaindude, Shakal, Delusion<br /><br />In terms of talent, this is probably the best top 3 in the league, with the possible exception of Bones/Dev/Denny.&nbsp; Getting them all to show will surely be more difficult than winning if they do.&nbsp; I, for one, hope they absolutely bomb, but I am more than a bit biased.&nbsp; Also, Del was a pretty nice grab in round 3, I kinda wanted him.<br /><br />Ralphis, SUC: Oath, Climhazzard, MionicDonut<br /><br />Oath was a great first pick, I really wanted him.&nbsp; If he remains active, he&#039;s definitely a top talent.&nbsp; I kind of think Ralph botched his second pick though, but I hope I&#039;m wrong.&nbsp; I thought for sure that he would take Mass, as a Mass/Ralph/Oath team is as solid as it gets.&nbsp; I&#039;m not sure what Clim has to offer, but if Ralph whips him into shape, he could also fare well.&nbsp; Donut in round 3 was a great value as well.<br /><br />Sabertooth, TCB (Best): X-Ray, Nosturi, Roscoe. <br /><br />Despite having the best, no doubt about it, I see this team as nothing more than solid.&nbsp; Saber and X-Ray are solid fraggers, and Nosturi has proven to be a capable runner.&nbsp; They lack the pizzazz factor, and they don&#039;t have big-name, dynamic type player.&nbsp; That isn&#039;t to say they aren&#039;t a good team, because they are, and they will be more than a handful in their conference.&nbsp; Also, Rudy could show up huge as a 4th.&nbsp; In the limited action I&#039;ve seen of him, his newly found internet enables him to get the fragging aspect he was lacking before.&nbsp; Like most, a very good 4th pick.<br /><br />LordBritish, PBH: Dr_Noob, Armour, MadV.<br /><br />I&#039;d like to preface this by saying that the advantage that I have over most captains (aside from being incredibly good at this game) is that I&#039;ve probably played more rounds of priv than anyone, with the possible exception of Prime.&nbsp; Maybe that&#039;s why we went to the Masterbowl last season.&nbsp; That being said, while some people might think I drafted a random Skulltagger and Noob from last year, I think they are very wrong.&nbsp; Noob is a ton better than he was last year, and to have him fall into my lap at 11 (even though I also really wanted Oath and X-Ray) was fine by me.&nbsp; The bigger risk was Armour at 14, when there were still players like Mass, Denny, Nosturi, and Killforce all available, all veterans, and all players I considered heavily.&nbsp; Kind of a high-risk, high-reward, but we&#039;ll see how it turns out!&nbsp; Also, I was elated getting MadV at 35.&nbsp; Very good value.<br /><br />ThatsJustPrime, BBC: Mantis-X, Gyrossman, Dawson<br /><br />There is an incredible amount of pressure on Prime to make this team work.&nbsp; He has to evolve from Prime into Stallion.&nbsp; If he does, they will be just fine, possibly even great.&nbsp; Mantis is solid enough in mid, and I know first-hand how good Gyross is.&nbsp; I&#039;m not sure this is the case though, and they may be preyed upon by Rust in the division.&nbsp; It is interesting to note that their top 3 all played in last year&#039;s Masterbowl.<br /><br />A few more predictions...<br /><br />Division Winners:<br />SGS (IDC North)<br />PBH (IDC South)<br />CTB (WDC East)<br />[=&gt; (WDC West)<br /><br />Conference Winners<br /><br />SGS (IDC)<br />CTB (WDC)<br /><br />Masterbowl Winner<br /><br />CTB!&nbsp; Congrats, bones!<br />
