[Tetraman]

This will be the most intense selections in a very long time. When will teams that were thought to be top tier but fell below 8th be selected? It begins!

[Lil' Lavery]

1678 just broke up EVERYONE on Curie.
1717, 2056, 1310, and 359 all declined them (in that order).

[Gregor]

1678 majorly scorched Curie.

1717, 2056, 1310, and 359 declined.

[Abhishek R]

Is the Archimedes' stream broken for anyone else?

And wow, what happened on Curie is crazy.

The NASA stream of Archimedes works....except no audio.

1756 on Arch #5



I think the mass of declines will seal the Curie Curse for this year. All the top teams were prevented from joining. In curie, the #8 captain is the #8 rank

[A. Estrella 78]

Okay so it's not just me that doesn't have audio.

Definitely...Curie had a great chance...but all the declines

3's. And they are darn good at it.

I am genuinely scared at all of these alliances. Holy crap.

[AmoryG]

It's crazy 610 was picked 5th to last and 125 wasn't picked at all on Galileo... just to name a couple I'm sure there are many other teams that were undervalued or snubbed.

[Tetraman]

Just because Curie was broken up didn't mean they got bad picks. I still don't think Curie can compete with Archenemies though.

The breaking up probably made 4814's day and gave them a real chance for the finals. I'm not sure why 1717 declined, but the other declines made sense to me. I would not be surprised in 4814, 67 and 1918 come out on top in this division.
