- NRG (World champs who did have a downgrade but still world champs for a reason)
- G2 (I think they will fall off as the year goes on but for now will still be at the top)
- MIBR (Zekken and Aspas)
- SEN (as #1 sen hater I still think Kaplan is a great coach and Narrate Reduxx and Cortezia are great talents)
- 100T (besides the obvious outlier on the roster the only thing holding this roster back is experience and the stigma of being 100T)
- KRU (Saadhak known for developing young talents, paired with Less they will do damage but will improve later in the year-only doubt is Mwzera)
- FUR (Super underrated due to the org but the 5 players are all above average to great)
- C9 (Oxy Penny V1C solid 3 and X0ppa will have his 1 life game to get here)
- LEV (extremely talented roster, but based on Onurs previous stint in AME-specificaly his aversion to antistrating-makes me place them lower-as the year goes on could be higher, but again I think the coach/igl duo will be the make or break for this team)
- NV (I love Keznit and will think Cane will fry-Egg/Inspire will prob be fine, but my big issue is Poppin who was already a question in t2 and against tougher opponents he will need to upgrade if NV want to do well)
- EG (Potter has given me no faith in her system these past years and while I hope they recapture former glory the c0m igl, supamen smokes, and Dgz whose english isnt workable on 1 roster spells doom especially early on in the season)
- LOUD (I have 0 faith in the coachs, pancada igl led LOUD to 0 wins, and I dont think Virrty is on the same level of other AME duelists)
ofc this is subject to change as season goes on and teams make replacments and build chem or implode but this is my kickoff ranking
