Fuck this cup. Might as well have let /mlp/ get a third star.
I hope that /fit/ wins so that it confirms my thought on the new curse.
Team wins a cup and gets relegated the next cup. That curse was broken with /mlp/.
So the new curse is that a team wins 2 of the season cups back to back, THEN gets relegated!
So /mlp/ win 2 summers in a row, we get relegated the next winter. /fit/ win 2 winters in a row, they'll get relegated in summer!
/)
Is this what you killed /asp/ for, /sp/?
/mu/st salvage this cup
An attempt was made.
The gypsy did well.
It's fine, we at /sp/ already have two stars
Get fucked /sp/
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
YOUR WINTER CUP WINNERS ARE
NO FANS, OR NO FANS
holy shit the whole final day but /vp/ vs /jp/ was abysmal.
I guess it was too good to be true.
>"One of these managers is going to win a second star."
I want the circlejerk to fucking leave. Restaurants win awards, not chefs. Teams win stars, not managers. Why didn't Boris call him out?
Shiggy diggy

This is the results of the semi-final pick.
AAAAAAND Also the final pick for this cup!

Can this shit get any worse?
Whose's /bothsecondaryboardsareinthefinal/ here?
I'm just glad I'll be able to shitpost about main main and my secondary have TWO STARS
>>169518969
Yeah/yourteam/ could be in
>>169518954
>>169518969
Yeah /jp/ could be there instead of /vp/
/sp/'s new delusion is that they have three stars. This has superseded their previous two-star delusion.
>>169519000
>horsefucker
>it's coming home
>>169518969
I mean, replace /mu/ with /mlp/ and /sp/ with /soc/ and you had the most absolute vomit inducing finals.
GET YOUR ASSES TOGETHER LADS, IT'S FUCKING TIME
>>169518969
/mlp/ and /soc/ instead of /mu/ and /vp/
Begone gains goblin,
>>169518969
Best final four in years tbqh.
>>169518969
Sure it can. This game will take 50 penalty kicks to end.
I still think /jp/ would have played a closer game against /mu/.
>>169519123
More like /sp/ is going home.
>>169519000
kill yourself already pf
So what do you think the awards look like right now?
HAHAH XD LOOK AT ME IM POSTING /A/ WEESHIT WHEN WE'RE IN FETUS. AHHAHAUIDFGIUDFSF
FUCK YOU /A/, WE'RE BETTER THAN YOU, WE HAVE TWO FUCKING STARS WHILE YOU ROT IN THE BABBIES, YOU THINK YOU'RE SO TOUGH AND EPIC WITH POSTING ANIME GIRLS?
FUCK YOU, YOURE NOTHING WITHOUT /SP/. OUR MANAGER IS BETTER THAN YOU, OUR TACTICS ARE BETTER THAN YOURS, AND OUR TEAM IS BETTER THAN YOU. FUCK YOU, END YOUR LIFE

That's where you're wrong, buddy.
>>169519390
>/vp/ blew them the fuck out
listen man i'm also a /vp/ fag but that's not even close to the truth
>>169519390
Because /jp/ didn't lose by 3 last time lol
>sick cunts who just want you to make it brah

the choice is clear
>>169519250
Not really.
We were down a medal and our conditions woud have been around the same
>>169519297

You have exactly as many as /a/, SENPAI
>>169519250
Probablybut they would've still lost
>>169519297
Being shit doesn't mean we can't laugh at you for you for also being shit.
>>169519474
Which is...? Really hard choice for me, both are fucking shit.
>>169518860
>>169519347
I mean, when the teams are always nearly equal on paper and have no human effort other than the manager's, it's hard to think about the """"team"""" when something is achieved.
>>169519047
>/fit/ vs /u/ final
>again
Wow, surprisingly I must agree.
>>169519297
Have a (You) for your troubles, falseflagger.

but gains memes can only be so entertaining.
>>169519474

you're implying /fit/ are Australians
Fuck Australians
Have we ended up with the two most boring possible teams?
>>169519706
Zyzz was Australian.
>>169519751
It could be /m/ instead of /fit/ so no

>aesthetics are barely above placeholders save for 2-3 players between them both
>/fit/'s fucking kits
>half of /mu/'s goalhorns are just sounds from a busy restaurant kitchen
this is a nightmare
I genuinely dislike /fit/ at this point. Even their tactics are boring.
>>169519751
/mu/ is fine with me, but /fit/ is awful (unfortunately they somehow know how to play virtual divegrass)
>>169519886
/Out/ have pretty good blenders thoough
>>169519886
I kind of like /out/
>>169519886
considering who got to ro16 he's correct.
>>169519961
Can we swap the third place and finals?
>>169520001
They exercise their bodies and their minds. They truly have made it.
>>169519961
>both teams play an extremely cagey and boring style
Blame PES 17 for making this a thing. The next three Cups are going to be a bus parking contest
>>169519751
/asp/ here.
This is like if jobbers ended up main eventing Wrestlemania. Literally Sami Zayn vs Zack Ryder tier.
>literally who
Exactly.
>>169519963
For me it was the last cup they won that made me hate them, and nothing will change that.
t./u/fag
>>169519886
/out/ is comfy and friendly
>>169520306
To be honest. I don't hate /fit/ even after that final.
>>169520515
You should hate them for being a bus parking nofans noblenders nofun team.
The commentary sometimes, yeesh.
The 2011 Summer cup did not have a traditional "Third-Place Match", where the winner was declared 3rd place and that's that. There was a point in the tournament where only three teams, /ck/, /sp/, /a/, were in contention for the cup. The Loser's Bracket match that would decide the two remaining teams in contention was the 3rd-place match, with the loser being in 3rd place.
Funny thing, that match was /sp/ - /a/. The very first El Classico was the very first Third-Place Match.
>>169520397
/out/ also has no fans
>>169520306
I don't hate them, but I don't like them either.
it's like sure, ok.
quite literally all I feel is "atleast /mlp/ didn't get a third star"
Just a quick Bracket Challege update (teams in parentheses haven't played yet, but those are worth 8 points, so this could get interesting at the top).

Tenko's predictions were a disaster, having 2 Round of 16 Losing teams playing in the Quarterfinals, having /a/ lose in the Quarterfinals, and /v/ winning both the third place match and the final despite losing in the Round of 16. You go, Tenko.
>/mlp/ taking both summers
>/fit/ could take both winters
So lads, do you think Boris will rant about "I want new winners" like the last time?
am I the only person here who likes /mu/?
fit can totally choke on a dick though
>>169520515
For me it was disgusting - their run was riddled with resident sleepers since their group stage, and that final was just bad. See >>169520620
>>169520306
You don't have to hate them to have a rivalry.
Although if we lost to them a couple more times I'd hate them too.
>>169520681
But it also has no real haters, so whenever it played some people rooted for them to spite their rivals
>instead of /sp/ it has to be /fit/
why
>>169520639
2011 is also when /sp/ had /asp/'s support and players. Mandrama made /sp/ good, now /asp is where its at.
>>169520809

>>169520801

>>169520809

>>169520809
They are OK in my book.
Agree on /fit/.
>>169520913
It's based on the Koln badge.
>>169520801
No, because the winner isn't /mlp/, which is the only time winning another star is unacceptable.
>>169520801
He meant: "I don't want /mlp/ to get a third star".
>>169521032

>>169523270
Not even close.
>>169523359
this
>>169523359
The /o/ blenders were fantastic too
Aren't most of /sp/'s players Euro? Its almost like 12-1 AM on there and they're low test so they're fucked.
Can someone greenscreen that Dab walking across the screen?" seems like it'd be exploitable for some kek videos.
>he just slowly dabs across the screen

>>169523359

>>169523359

Admit it, you're a vidya board but you have weeb inroads. You're at least 20% weeb. which is enough to piss off /sp/

You're a board about a Japanese video game with a fucklong anime. Sorry, but you're a weeb vidya board.

boy i sure am glad /4ccg/ got their dream final
>>169524857
Right now to sack Messi and put Tom Brady.
Thank you /vp/ for exposing Messi so that he can get removed and thus /sp/ gets better for Summer Cup.

>>169526620
Just hope /mu/ wins so horsekillers win
I'm actually glad one of these teams is winning a second star. They actually have fans, culture, and getting a second star would no longer make /mlp/ a special snowflake.
>horsefuckers no longer the only ones who can brag about 2 stars
>>169526752
>They actually have fans, culture
You're fucking kidding
do your worst, /4ccg/
>>169526752
I think people dislike it because /mu/ and /fit/ are very culturally isolated, nobody outside of the boards can really root for either of them because they don't have a site-wide influence.
I hope this game goes to penalties at 0-0.

Not only that, but the team themes themselves are a blast. The characters, music, and of course the culture is uniquely 4chan.

Which teams would those be?

>>169529457
It's deserved desu, but the fact that /fit/ is one of the most boring team with most boring tactic, one goalhorn, the same players all the time and nothing particulary interesting about. Winning one cup was finet. /u/ fag, but winning second in one year is just meh. Not as annoying as second star for /mlp/, but just simply meh.
So, is height abuse a thing?
>>169529781
Does /fit/ even know they just won the Cup for a second time?
>>169529752
>/fit/ and /mlp/ are blackhawks and kangs
does this mean /tg/ will win winter 17 as the pons?
Absoultely disgusting.
The most boring (almost non-)team wins this shit again...
I hate you /fit/, but congratulations, and have fun I guess.
Also: /mlp/ and /fit/ winning back to back - can it get worse?
So...when is the Spring babby happening?
Look at the bright side:at least it wasn't /sp/
So this is rigged right? It makes no sence why /fit/ and /mlp/ are the only ones who are winning
>>169529839
Non-normalfag teams of course.

Of course not.

>>169529897
>>169529980
They have a pretty big thread up right now actually.
Tbh I'm a /mu/ fan, but the final matches were great, stop fucking REE-ing. At least it's not the horsefckers.Also this must serve you as a reminder that being physically fit will always do good shit so get off your ass and work that sqat rack, boi
>start thinking of Spring
>remember the absolute state of /myteam/
Why do I watch this again
>>169529958
/sp/ would at least be fun for memes because their fanbase actually takes it seriously. /fit/ and /mu/ dont care about the cup, theyve each had one thread open for the whole tournament while /sp/ has gone through nearly 15
>normie team wins
kys
/jp/ would have beat /fit/
JB fed tactics to /vp/ to defeat /jp/ and then had them throw the match to /mu/ to make the final look less obvious.
Please spread my meme theory.
>>169529958
I would take /sp/ all the time - at least memes wouldn't make it boring.
>>169529889
yeah, it's pretty much confirmed, most of /fit/ goals came from height abuse.
I guess this is a sign I need to start working out
>>169529945

We left everything out there. Congrats to /fit/, they played one hell of a game. Thanks to /mu/'s fanbase for all of their support. Sorry we couldn't bring it home this time around.

do the team awards get decided and announced on stream, or does that come later?

>>169530929
>height is already controlled in the rules
That doesn't mean there's not a way to abuse it, especially if PES17 is different.
Nice win fit but...
JB and /mlp/ management should intentionally relegate their teams to Autumn just for memes, no joke
>there will NEVER EVER be another final as hyp as Spring 15
/jp/ vs /vp/ for match of the tournament
>>169530929

Didn't stop /merit/ from nerfing it for Winter 15. Either give it a bigger nerf or go back to the pre Winter 15 ruleset
ded wiki pls fix
>>169531074
this one is a obvious one, no contest.
can we start giving some sort of real award for winning a Babby? If the last four disasters we've witnessed in Elites are worth a star than a Babby should be worth something too
>>169530941

>>169531239

>>169531007
Where did the /mu/ has no fans meme come from?Or am I just responding to horse bait.
Here there are, those are the last Bot-chan results.
This cup has been the worst one for her with a score of 24/64

Also here is her pick for the final boss match/fit/ will score

Now the cup is over I'll explain all the talk about me retiring
I'm not quitting managing, but I'm stepping down as /AesCo/'s king/captain/top shitposter.
The past 6 months has seen me barely involved with the heavily lifting, and my knowledge has fallen pretty far behind when it comes to all the new aesthetics techniques
Not that the head status matters, seeing as the other guys have been carrying my lazy ass all this time, but I wouldn't want them to feel they need my permission to carry something out or that I'm dragging them down by being ded most of the time, so I'm sticking the #offishul badge on Shakes for what it matters
I'd like to thank all the /AesCo/ guys for not only keeping this cup in top check, but for also just getting us on 17 in the first place.
You guys are irreplaceable, thanks for making this cup happen
Until Summer I'm on vacation, cya then folks
>>169534251
Are you the one responsible for precisely calibrated?

>>169534251

>>169534484

I really don't like to read texts like this because I think it's fucking cringy to do something like this on 4chan. But here it is
This was the first cup that I witnessed, I always got hyped before but never could get into it at time. /mu/ was my home board, but I found myself cheering for /o/, /sp/ and even s4s at times. And that was fun you know? spend my saturday afternoon watching fake players divegrassing, and along with this autistic community, it has become so much better. It was nice while it lasted, shame that we couldn't win, and now as it ends, IDK how i feel, but I think all this journey was worth it, I will be back on spring, and I will enjoy it as always, mad props for boris for being this meme machine and unironically a nice host. thanks to you all.

>>169545047
It's definitely an /sp/ guy.
>>169545000
Nice trips but don't be a merc. Unless /yourboard/ already has a testing army, I'm sure the manager could use a hand. Testing is a good way to get practice and you don't have to know PES to run tests.
>>169545132

If a merc manager actually ran roster polls and stuff what would the problem be?
>>169546582
he's pushing a team into the cup that doesn't have enough interest in having a manager themselves
>>169546582
as long as they didn't throw matches when they came up against their actual team, then no problem imo
Will /jp/ (Rorona) and /vp/ (Worst) be the new /mu/ (Feedback) and /fit/ (JB) of the next 3 years?
>>169544360
Asking that question in public wasn't your best choice to begin with. Congratulations, you've failed on the very first step.
So as you guys who've been tuning in to First Bait might have overheard, I've got faith in the /vp/ I'm leaving behind. Meanwhile I've started being a regular on no less than three /vg/ generals so I guess I may as well go all the way.
See you guys in Summer ;)
>>169546582
Nothing as long as the board are making changes. Managers are stupid and if a board has fans but no manager they should be able to autopilot. We pull 2000 viewers for a cup and maybe 1 in 20 of them want to manage
>>169546738
>rorona
lel she can barely manage in VGLs
>>169546582
It depends
When twinky managed 3 the board(all 4 of them) actually asked him to keep mercing it after he did OK in Fall 2014, and he ran a roster poll/got them involved making kits/blenders
That's not abhorrent(well besides the fact that it was >twonky)
However 99% of the time mercing involves someone keeping a dead team with 0 fans alive for their own personal enjoyment(and to be honest some non-mercs have done this too in the past. They're the only fan of their own home board so they just manage it and make roster decisions based on their own knowledge of the board)
>>169546582
my thoughts exactly, of course things like >>169546704 and >>169546737 can make things like this fucked situations. i can see the apprehensiveness
>>169546765
why? I dont see why simply asking would hurt anyone. hell, maybe this might give a resurgence to those boards to want to care for their team again. could work both ways.
>>169547201
Why didn't you meme arrow Worst when he didn't even advance out of VGL but Rorona did?
Both were quality additions to their teams and (opinion) above average tacticians.
>actually wanting to manage
why would you want to suffer like that
>>169547586
cuz it's fun
>>169547496
>VGL
Who cares, stop circlejerking managers
>>169547284
If you are open about willing to merc someone, then casually approach Lear few days later with "hey, can I manage for /fa/, /cgl/ or whatever" your chances are equal to zero. Not only for managing for said board, but also for managing for any board in the future as you will end up noted down as merc.

that, a bunch of slips of paper with the board names on them, and a plastic tupperware container, which is why I repeatedly called it the """"hat"""" pick. You can use anything that can act as a container to put the papers in.

Because they're in the fetus with /co/, /i/, and /a/
Can we all calm down and agree that the /jp/ /vp/ game was more important and exciting than the actual final?

Ramen "cares more about circlejerking than his team" Raisin.
Ramen "balls deep in the /po/ manager" Raisin.
Ramen "leaking tactics to /jp/" Raisin.

>half the interesting teams in the fetus are going to be bailed right the fuck out of it
hahahaha
HAHAHAHAHA
Don't underestimate how asinine the commissioner is. We're getting a 12-team fetus to kill off 4 teams and you know it.
>>169553926
Pretty sure it was Nomo who 'leaked' tactics
>>169553807
/i/ are literal dogshit, /co/ are a fucking joke, and /y/ are somehow even more of a joke than /co/
THAT is why

The /a/ council is an even bigger joke than the one /m/ had in '14.

>>169553807
tbf, NED wanted Lazyturd to sink or swim when it came to responsibility of the team because he was burnt out. And, while he did take responsibility, he ended up sinking /tg/. expect /tg/ to be average this cup, maybe even promote.
>>169554524
they were diagnosed with NFR. I'm afraid it's terminal
>>169554198

I must've missed that one
>>169555004
/d/ made elite knockouts twice with NFR

it's the only way you can explain a team running silver fullbacks + gold DMF, in PES16 no less

But that team beat everyone even actual cup teams
I shouldn't care this much about fucking virtual divegrass. Anyways congrats to /fit/.
So, while we've still got at least SOME cup-related energy before this place dies down.
Early favorites to win Spring?
Early favorites to Wooden Spoon?
Teams that you think will be the 'surprise' of the Babby?
So yeah I've been verified as an /h/ comanager.
>>169558134
Replacing one kangaroo for another eh
Who is the most consistent manager in the cup when it comes to performance in matches?

/mlp/, /u/, /w/

/trv/, /wg/, /k/
>Teams that you think will be the 'surprise' of the Babby?
/g/, /biz/who will then immediately get relegated from Summer
>>169557891
it hurts but at least >we are back in the game
I believe that Twain will find a way
>>169558185
Still 50/50 if Flow will retire not. I'm trying to convince him to stay onwhich would give /h/ THREE Australian managers
>>169557917
Define favorites, because the most expected to win would be
>/mlp/ or /u/
Spoon
>/n/ /trv/ /pol/
Surprise
>/tg/ /ck/
>>169558875
Call it personal preference. If it were 'most expected' it couldn't be a surprise, could it?
>>169536787
fuck are you me?

>>169557917
I can definitely see /mlp/ winning the whole thing I'm afraid. Same goes for /u/.
Spoon contenders would be /an/, /i/ or /t/ (if they get out of the fetus).
Surprises would be /tg/ or /a/ being any good with their current management.

>ywn hear JIBUN WOOOOO ever again
kill me
>>169560502
surely they can beat /y/ and /co/
New thread when?
>>169560715
I'm on it
>>169560692
They have become the new /co/, except they're circlejerkers instead of whiny losers.
