OK here is my predictions on how teams will rank at the end of the regular season. Feel free to comment.
Alpha Conference Standings
1 GD: Eastern Anubis Gurupies - 1304 EL. - 86 chem - WL demote makes them a instant contender. and in my opinion deserving to start out ranked on top. They will be a home playoff team but the young teams will give them all they can handle come playoffs but EAG is always going to put up a good fight.
2 Sydney Sharks 1290 - 83 - Always a contender and they have a veteran squad. They will be a home playoff team and key will be to take out the young teams round 1 before they peak.
3 Sin City Spoilers - 1303 - 54 another solid team that will fight to be a home team. They have a mix of youth and vets and will have a good shot at sending a young team packing round 1. The chemistry will hurt them early so they could be dropped lower if have some key loss early season but come playoffs everyone needs to be aware of this team as a top contender.
4 Asau Golden Eagles - 1195 - 98 - young talented team that will take advantage of the chemistry advantage early. As long as they last through round 1 of playoffs this team will be a top contender to fear.
5 Orlando Prime Timers -1305 - 46 - Great veteran team with a long history of winning, they will be a top contender. Bad chemistry will possibly cost them some games early. If they have a rough start it could be the difference between a 4th seed and missing playoffs.
6 Texas Aztecs - 1210 - 80 - Another young team that might be average in reg. season and will hit plateau in playoffs, They should have good enough chemistry and enough talent to make playoffs but that is not a lock. the tough part will be to survive round 1.
7 Asau Assassins - 1209 - 84 - Very young team with a not quite complete roster. Will be a very solid team once most of the team hits plateau after game 6. If they have a complete roster they could possibly have a home playoff game
8 Arkansas Razorbacks - 1145 - 100 - very young team and will be solid once they hit plateau after week 6. They need to take advantage of that 100 chemistry early to fight for a playoff spot. This team could very possibly have a home playoff game
9 Cheers is filmed in front of a live studio audience - 1267 - 55 - Playoff team every season but these young teams will be to much for them come playoffs. The low chemistry could be enough to take them out of playoffs if they start slow.
10 Cork City Chronic Hugos - 1274.- 98 - veteran team with a solid shot at playoffs but no lock for playoffs in my opinion. The chemistry advantage might be enough to get some key wins early to snag a playoff spot but for now I have them here.
11 A7 Jungle Warfare - 1288 - 62 - looks like a ok roster but this conference is very top heavy and I don't think they will be able to make playoffs.
12 Sydney Pelicans - 1137 -89- A very young team but this league is to top heavy for them to be able to pull off a playoff appearance this season. The following season might be when they make their move but who knows, they could shock some people.
13 Banzai Pipeline 'Nites -1194 - this team has a history of greatness but looks like they are not a contender this season.
14 OffTopica Miracle - 1241- 68 - this conference is going to be to strong to let this team contend.
15 Atlantis Aquatic Apes - 1196. - 82 - incomplete roster - will not make playoffs.
16 Portsmouth Virginians - 894 - 18 - in for a long season.
