Coaches Poll (Jan 1, 2014 Updated!)

1. TOFU. The F400, F41 and Clan Page says it all really (despite what Bruce might think).

Bruce — being #1 requires a bit more than getting 1st place in CL5. More like being #1 on all clan ratings site-wide .

Well, since this is a purely opinion-based ranking, perhaps Bruce's opinion might have taken into consideration the fact that TOFU could be on a downturn since they no longer have enough player participation to compete in the two main clan events each year.

[Dako]

Perhaps TOFU could be on a dowturn. Time will show :).

[Dualta]

I could be wrong.

[IcePack]

It was actually more difficult this time around then past votes.
A handful are in, still looking for pm from a large group of clan rep

[iAmCaffeine]

I could be wrong.

You weren't included in that.

[Dualta]

I could be wrong.

You weren't included in that.

I'll take your word for it....

[jghost7]

Voted.

Thanks,

[IcePack]

8-9 votes submitted so far

[hyposquasher]

Is it correct that ACE still can't be included here until we appear in F400?

nope, ACE can be included in here and has been eligible since they were started. Most didn't put them on the list either because a) considered them new or b) forgot to include them. they were mentioned in the PM that went out, so people wouldn't forget to consider them.

Cool. And I see as the votes are coming in we are on everyone's list. Thanks!

Not forgetting, just don't think they're top 20..

[jghost7]

very observant....
I think so too.
Their most recent adds will boost their productivity well into the top 20.

There is still TFFS, MM, LHDD, MYTH all competing for those edge spots. While I think they will overtime break top 20, I think right now it's at very least arguable and not surprising to see them on and off (ie not regularly on) people's lists.

I finally remembered what I was thinking of. You remind me of Blitz Bruce. He was ever eager to avoid giving Tofu any plaudits, and the grudging fashion in which you barely include us in the top 10 gave me some serious deja vu!
I'm not sure how there was ever any doubt that we were a top 10 clan from formation, but if you're looking for some vindication hopefully you'll receive it one day.

1. KORT - New blood and fresh life, Strong showings so far. Won CL5
2. TOFU - Slipped down to number 2 with the departure of Seul
3. IA - Still holding Strong and playing well. Nearly took CL5 Premiere
4 TSM - Still holding their own and doing well.
5. LoW - Have rebounded a good bit. Lets see how CC4 turns out.
6. ATL - Moving up quick some with nice wins. Can the pull off the upset over TOFU?
7. PACK - New blood and some new wars going. Lets see if they can get re energized and move up again.
8. OSA - Up and down as always, but tough still
9. RA - Moving up the list with some very strong showings. Now they gotta hold serve.
10. ACE - Moving back up the list. A few more wins and they will surely go higher.
11. FALL - Dropped due to others overtaking them, not so much their play. They did have an early exit in CC4 though.
12. G1 - Looks like G1 is back and ready to kick ass
13. OTP - Slipping a bit as of late. Looks like freak needs to come back!
14. AFOS - Falling quick. The Wheels are about to come off?
15. ID - ID is pretty quiet right now. I bet they make some noise soon.
16. PIG - Also slipping a bit with a few losses, but they will come back strong I bet.
17.TNC - Some of the great wind they had has been let out. Do not not sleep on TNC though, as they can still be really tough!
18. MD - About the same as last time. Keep waiting for that big win.
19. FOED - About even with last time. Can they rebuild to what they once were?
20. RET - Sticking around this spot. They need a big win to move up further.



These are just my opinions so feel free to chop them up.

To answer.. OFC Ace is top 10 clan on paper, but we shall have see it on the field. This is what ACE is proving now vs LoW. It has always been opinion that to be on any list one must first show it on the field. That could be said for TOFU, KORT, or any clan that starts up. It is nothing personal vs ACE, or ATL for that matter or any new clan.

[Leehar]

Nothing wrong with it, just felt very reminiscent of Blitz. On the face of it you are saying RA is better than Ace which is intriguing to say the least, but we have no qualms in proving what everyone should really have expected from the outset.

Just play your games and win them. We are thrilled to war vs you some day later. That will be a glorious battle!

Yeah, but you missed our date for the potential Random Cup Semi's face-off
Heck, Kort did the same in 1v1 Semi's!

Guess we'll just have to ensure we clash in CC4 Semi's, but it's no fun when people run away all the time

[Dako]

LoW stole our dice! We will lose like 3-10 there, disastrous.

This made me chuckle, due to the random method of opponent selection we faced ATL first round, which you've ranked 6th and have made it to Final 8 of CC4. That might explain the "early exit"
