(no stats sites work, so this a top 12 simply based on the eye test)
1. Legions of Eligos
Started day 1. A few decent players and a few more heavy golders. Weak leadership. Benefiting from weak competition - which to be fair isn't their fault. I question their longevity when their golders lose interest (inevitable) or face a real enemy.
2. Zero tolerance
Another alliance who started day 1 with very weak players, and much less decent players than #1. If Eligos or any other alliance with some firepower runs into them, they'll fold.
3. The Vikings
Not even worth writing about.
4. Strawberry Trojans
Recently took over Vikings as "the" MRA of the server. They will go as all MRA's go.
5. Titans of Teos
A handful of decent players, and a buttload of dead weight. Quoted by one of their leaders as saying the only good players in MP were Dan and Capable... who promptly lost a city to neither of them. Internal issues and deadweight will be the death of them.
6. Masked Profanity
Mine and Ali's crew, we do what we do. Anyone with a higher IQ than sema can figure out where we stand (which is everyone)
7. See 2
8. Krypts
Not the real krypts and they should be ashamed for taking a name of a respectable group of players.
9. Gruesome
I know nothing of this team or almost anyone in it, but being in o45 has its advantages for sure. They will last as long as a decent team doesn't pop up deeper into 045, after that it's game over (if it happens).
10. Cobra Kai
Basically Vikings 2.0. Recently have tried to distant themselves from Vikings knowing that they are going downhill (won't commit to their wars but will ask for support for their own). A weak ocean in o55, they will be OK so long as any real alliances don't venture their way.
11. Dirty South
I mean they have moon so they are immediately better than gruesome.
12. The Awoken
Straddling 44/54.. wont be pleasant for them when MP / Eligos decide they want northern cities.
Not much to talk about here, but it's better than sema's nonsensical rambling.
