Vilu, the Paladin from Knockout (now known as ID Gaming) wrote a blog entry yesterday with some juicy details about some of the teams, which he was kind enough to share with us.

Avada Kedavra (Stormscale Alliance droodrog)
Not much introduction needed, they're the winners of the last tournament, seeded first for the 2nd one, always fielding solid performances, especially by their mage Coold the Undying. Brutal in mirror matches due to their superior human and nightelf racials!

WE RLY CARE (Shattered Hand Horde droodrog)
Unrepresented in the first tournament due to scheduling conflicts, they're probably the most consistent droodrog team out there. When you could get away with few mistakes against other teams fielding the same lineup, Vexed & co just come in and kill something. Fast. It's really quite inexplicable, they do in 5 what others do in 7 seconds. One of the rare top teams not based on Stormscale, they're the pride of Shattered Hand.

Showtimed (Stormscale Horde droodrog)
Bokkle's apostles, Zom's posse, call it whatever you like, they mean business. Last tournament's 2nd place, now hungry for more. These ex-Al'Akir'ans were among the first to play this setup to it's fullest. Compared to other team's Shadowstep specced rogues, they usually field a deep mutilate one. This not only changes the play style of the rogue, but also that of the team, making the fights against them much more unpredictable compared to their sister setups. Combined with the fastest Massdispels on Cyclone they're a pain to face.

COOL AZSHALLEROS (Stormscale Horde 2345)
German transferee's from Glutstrum, they play probably the most eccentric 2345 ever. A mix of defensive outlast and gibs combined with amazing kite by their shaman Totempo. Their play is top notch, and they do honor to the setup, sadly with the invasion of warlocks and hunters the setup ain't a top contender anymore. Regardless, they're a team everyone loves to fight, mainly due to them making FotM something that's definitely not mainstream. But who knows, their offbeat play might surprise in a tournament mode.

Four Kings (Ravencrest Alliance mage/lock)
Playing the 'old' CC setup, they might be a bit outdated. Fairing well against the db's after the mage buffs that came with the last patch and a new play style, they do well against most teams. Most in this case doesn't quite cut it, as their setup has some severe disadvantages against some teams. They can go far though, unless they get out-comped early in the tournament.

Nihilum Arena (Stormscale Alliance drainburn)
A real powerhouse for a team, they're a top contender for the first spot. Surmounting the setup's only real weaknesses with dwarf racials and superb play, only thing that prevented them from winning the last tournament was inexperience against droodrog teams. Now they come prepared, are other teams prepared for them? Even more interesting was the call for benching Slòt, probably the best elemental shaman in the BG, and the 2346 setup they were familiar with for Cherez the hunter & drainburn.

I R TANKER (Ravencrest Horde 2346)
Playing the old CC setup with an amazing success, but acknowledging it's flaws, their mage leveled and geared an elemental shaman. Swapping from CCS to 2346 with only a week to prepare and train, can Omaster absorb the essence of ele shammy fast enough, and well enough? Ravencrest's finest.

Nagas (Stormscale Alliance drainburn)
Having struggled with activity as of late, Paralol & co have probably the best team play on the BG. Having dwarf racials to cover for the setup's weaknesses, they're a real contender for the most coveted spot. Or at least were few weeks back. Can they get in to shape fast enough, will Paralol ever recover from his windfury addiction?

Cowboys from Sweden (Stormscale Alliance droodrog)
I don't know them really, but Raphiron said they were all **** and were carried by their human priest.
