I don't know a lot about these teams, but I'm going to rank them anyway.
Team...........................................Pro League..................Season 11 Record
1. Drygerian Hoblosionnaires (CPL) 16-3/World League Champs
Defending world champs are a shoo-in for the number one spot. Last season, Drygerian beat 4 excellent teams on their way to winning the 1st World Bowl. But, it's a new season and a new conference for the Hoblos. Can they repeat?
2. Monmouth Evil Monkeys (USAPL) 15-3
One of GLB's finest, MEM thought they were on their way to the World Bowl before getting upended by Drygerian. The Evil Monkeys made the move to Alpha with them, and will be looking for revenge.
3. Cincinnati Shockers (USAPL) 14-3
The Shockers were shocked in the first round of the playoffs last season by the Drinkin Hellraisers. But, who's really surprised? They are from Ohio, after all.
4. Marblehead Longhorns (CPL) 11-6-1
The Longhorns upset the Red Dots in the first round last season before bowing out to the Dynamo in the 2nd. Another team to switch from Zeta to Alpha, the Longhorns are looking to improve on last season.
5. Louisiana Screaming Pelicans (SEAPL) 11-7
SEAPL surprised the World last season, sending 3 out of 4 teams to the playoffs. This season, LSP is the only of those teams to return to Alpha (3KW went Zeta, and Singapore gutted), and are looking to make even more noise this season, with probably the best blockers in the conference.
6. So Cal BDC (OPL) 10-7
The only team from OPL worth a damn. They held their own in their first season, before losing in the first round of the playoffs. They still have a lot to prove, and should have a good season.
7. Lincoln Navigators (USAPL) 17-3/USAPL Runner Up
Another reputable USA team looking to do some damage.
8. Angola Spider Monkeez (APL) 20-0/APL Champs
ASP aced the APL last season, and really should have been in the World league for season 11 in LOL's place. Angola has a lot of pressure on them and will try to prove that they know how to play Dot Ball in Africa and will try to become the first team from Africa to make the World League playoffs.
9. Black Forest Mercenaries (WEPL) 9-8
The Mercenaries squeaked into the Zeta playoffs last season and lost a heart breaker to Bonn. Now in a new conference, Black Forest has its work cut out for them to make it back to the playoffs.
10. Singapore Flames (SEAPL) 18-2/SEAPL Champs
The Flames upset the perennial SEAPL powerhouse Tire Fires, earning them their first Super Wok championship, and will now introduce Celtic Raider to the world. The Flames will find out soon enough if they have what it takes to burn bright in this league.
11. Sofia Spiders (EEPL) 18-2/EEPL Champs
The Spiders played some fantastic dotball last season, winning the EEPL championship, and upset the Buda Pests in the conference championship. But, it's a huge gap from EEPL to the World League.
12. Pa Dong Dragons (SEAPL) 17-2
PDD was having their best season to date before getting slayed by ESL in the Naga championship game. The Dragons are one of SEA's elite, but this is a whole different game up here.
13. Korb Destroyers (WEPL) 17-3/WEPL Champs
The Destroyers are the defending WEPL champions, and in their first season in the World League, they will looking to put themselves on the map. This is good, because quite frankly, I have no idea where Korb is.
14. Durham Ice Odyssey (CPL) 17-3/CPL Runner Up
Oh great. Another CPL team. *sigh*
15. Mayan Prophecy (SAPL) 18-2/SAPL Runner Up
Hmmm... the Mayan Prophecy enters the World League in season 12? That's either a coincidence, or a sure sign the world's going to end soon.
16. Belfast Commandos (WEPL) 16-4/WEPL Runner Up
Who?
