16-0🥇great friends!!! searsgimiteafamitychocolatcoinThrough the power of friendship (and sears), great friends!!! have strolled into Main as the presumptive champions. They comprise the "Big 3" playoff teams as well as Chief Keef and Supra 94tro.tf. These three teams are a clear cut above the rest — everyone else is squabbling for fourth. great friend's!!! dominance can be attributed to their division leading scout duo of sears and gimi, but don't forget about chocolat, whose skills have helped propel this team to an easy playoff spot. The only thing these strongly linked acquaintances have to fear is a choke in playoffs (Knock on wood...).

12-4🥉Supra 94tro.tf OakBumba/nachamCyrusRoseIronKatzSupra 94tro.tf entered the season helmed by maff, a consistent playoffs competitor in main. Details are a bit murky at the moment, but it's alleged that the roster underwent a mutiny, booting the former captain and their allies in the procces. Despite the regime change, this roster still has plenty of teeth — heavy hitters like oak and bumba are sure to strike fear in the hearts of opposing teams. They comprise the "Big 3" of this season, and their playoff spot has already been penciled in. What matters is whether or not they have the skills to take down the other titans in the playoffs. I expect their casted game to be a must-watch.

10-6🔒INFuSION factsmachineparsuheddieBrown SugarCVOPancakeINFuSION is somewhat of a continuation of last season's Grub Bub, which was a low-end main team. I say "somewhat" because while many of the same players are rostered, they are subbing rather than playing full time. The main roster is lead by CVO on demoman, and features eddie and Brown Sugar on the pocket and roamer respectively. Pancake is also taking up the med spot in his first (I think) ever season on the class. I don't really know how to feel about these guys — the roster looks pretty good on paper but they've struggled against a couple of middling teams in scrims and matches. Let's hope it's just early season jitters.

10-6🔒fantasy foosball saelaslocal manTruemondanmarlowekiR1l3yContinuing from their time in season 14 of IM, Fantasy Foosball looks to score some big goals in the season. They've kept the core of local man, Truemon, and danmar, but the departure of superstars a.t. and Ness at important positions forced them to look outside (Discario was atomized long ago). Reinforcements came in the form of "the combo scout with a million aliases" meadow and demoman saelas. Although I intially expected them to occupy the middle of the pack, they've gotten off to a very hot start and smashed some genuine competitors like Da Billage in the process. If they can keep their streak going for just a few more weeks, they should be able to cruise to an unbeatable record after clearing the early gauntlet of contenders.

8.5-7🔒Omnicide YesodSunshinetrackerbilly boyShamanVipershroomWelcome home malarkey. After a three season break, everyone's favorite chud demoman has finally returned to regular compettion, and he's brought friends. Yesod, Sunshine, and tracker are just some of the costars in what's sure to become this spring's hottest new blockbuster: Omnicide. Will the team live longer than malarkey's last full time effort, puscrim? (Probably.) Will they be able to go the entire season without at least one ban on a main rostered player? (Unlikely.) Will they upset a playoff bound roster with their chud swag? (Almost assuredly.)

8-8🔒Chungoids averageClosedTildaheartbenguinMaleficentsaphTeam leader saph clearly tapped into some sort of psychic network to assemble Chungoids. Taking one half of last season's The Allegations, the roster consists of former teammates Closed and benguin in addition to newcomers like Maleficent. Most notably, someone staged an intervention and finally took the pscout car keys away from saph — thank the lord (Note: recent scrims have suggested they switched classes again. The roadways might become unsafe once again). Individually, all of these players have the tools needed to win a double digit amount of games. If they don't crash out, playoffs could very well be in reach.

8-8❌BEAR WITH ME ChristianKing787pagedMovFred The PiglushaExeloarRackityRacBEAR WITH ME is the newest effort of the exeloar friendgroup/circlejerk. These guys have played together in some form since at least season 11 in Main, and the results have been consistent. Not great, but consistent. Atlhough players like Fred The Pig and lusha have individually put up better results, the high water mark of this group collectively was a whopping 6-10 record last season (in Main, they've done better work in IM). A sign of steady improvement, or just a one-off fluke? You be the judge.
15
8-8❌Da Billage MaxxcornsauceillyaweebztaylorkihbaeEvery season of main is legally mandated to have an "unc roster," and this time around Da Billage snagged the crown. An offshoot of The Village pug group, the team is lead by former RGL owner Taylor and Village regular Cornsauce. Every member of the team besides Cornsauce has had experience in Main, and kihbae was part of last season's MEELO roster that won second place. Their experience is their biggest boon, but don't count out their mechanical skills either. They're the probable front runner for the coveted fourth playoff spot (assuming it isn't expanded later in the season.)

7-9❌cholos against red 40 porzdragivexalchemistkacheekkasperheks?cholos against red 40 is a merger between season 16 IM bronze medalists narcosexy and IM playoff team Criminalize Golf. It's is helmed by Kasper and kacheek, who were perennial bottom feeders until their breakout season in season 16. After setting their sights on main, they tapped narcosexy veteran porz and Main runner-up Dragivex as their scout duo. A combination of rapid risers and experienced talent, these guys have the potential to make some noise in the later weeks of the season.
17
5.5-10❌Project Poro k.wazariTheHobeeSammyProgChineeDump?After a five season long break, season 12 IM champions Project Poro return to RGL. The roster is basically unchanged from their time as DRX, with k still taking up the combo scout position and TheHobee backing him up on pocket. This coalition of "moveups" (they've been trying to get this team off the ground for like three seasons) has the potential to notch some good wins, although they don't really seems to be scrimming all that much. If they lock in, watch out!
18
4-11❌dropology 2 Percent MilkynznatalexeikaputonLt. LemonsShrebbieSimilar to Efflorescence, dropology finished season 16 in IM with a less than impressive record (7-9), although they ended the season on a promising note, playing close games and a taking few upsets against playoff bound teams. The roster remains mostly unchanged, with the major additions being Lt. Lemons on demoman and natalexei on pocket soldier. This group of players hasn't exactly set the world on fire with championships, but they've got a solid core and great synergy with each other. That means a lot more than you might expect, especially in what seems like a weaker than average season.

Disgusting Gluttony Gamers
FlügelPrealphaDsquared2nikkomodemariomanzArooAfter the untimely death of Where Gamers Go in preseason, mariomanz conducted a dark ritual to resurrect the roster in a surprising inversion to the usual cycle of his teams. The result of his black magic? Disgusting Gluttony Gamers. His undead army is comprised of scouts Flügel and Prealpha, soldiers Dsquared2 and nikkomode, himself as demo/lich king, and certified "unc" plinko on medic. I'll be entirely honest — none of these players have had much success at any other level, so I don't expect them to light the division on fire. However, surprises are always possible.

2-14🥳Efflorescence ETHNMini-StalinfloomPride_dpmthedittogirlAfter racking up an eye-watering six wins in season 16 of IM, team leaders ETHN and Mini-Stalin saw fit to take the Efflorescence brand up to main, taking longtime teammates dpm and Pride_ with them. In their immesurable wisdom, they also decided to grab james_bondage on soldier (although they might have come to their senses on that one, seeing as they've rang soldiers for the last two officials) and thedittogirl on medic to round out the team. As of the writing of this summary, they have yet to win a single round in three weeks of play. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger I suppose.
