Looks like that was early when your Chemistry was jacked. You guys weren't playing nearly as well back then.I think that's probably true. There's a test that was done, the results are in the test forum thingy.. It seems to indicate that those of us that called bullshit on "Chemistry caused us to lose!" were dead wrong. Makes me feel a little better about Rhodesia's start, which seems to be supported by our playing KD extremely closely late in the season as well - once our chemistry was higher. We were right on the edge of being a contending playoff team in season 8, except early in the season we were nowhere close to it.
Before I would have blamed myself, our builds, our tactics etc, but I think chemistry actually plays a larger role than a lot of us thought.
0-4 start
8 losses total
4 losses by 1 score
2 losses by 2 scores
2 deaths by power back

I'm pretty confident Rhodesia would have had a 12-4 season at least, but chemistry is definitely a part of the game. I doubt Mozambique will have issues in AAA. Might be in for a .500 season, but tbh that's expected. Definitely won't be outmatched.
