It is a World Cup year, right? I feel like I should know this but nothing really seems to be happening and we're about to hit the Continental Cup finals without a commish, GMs, any mention of the WC. Hopefully someone is on top of it.

 

In the meantime, assuming it is a World Cup year, it's a weekend, I'm not in the playoffs any more, so not too much to talk about apart from the World Cup. I hope that Team Europe has got a few more of the first-gens after the nation swaps for the WJC because previously it was just me and @Tyler pretty much. That would be a hilarious trainwreck of a WC tournament. That said, I do recall lots of the S63 first-gens opted for Asian countries and other 'rest of the world' places so I suspect that team will get a bit of a boost in addition to the existing Russians led by @Banackock's love in for their players, while Europe will be in total shit. As long as we don't get merged with Scandinavia we should be fine.

 

The World Cup is a weird one. It always feels like it's dominated by Canada and the USA, but then you look at it and actually Scandinavia is the dominant force historically (still driven by 4 straight golds in the 20s, god I timed Lars Berger's career right). Even the less fancied teams generally have never been utterly shit, apart from Mercenaries but that is pretty much expected. Here's a thread: https://vhlforum.com/topic/29475-world-cup-medals-by-team/

 

 

In my absence I lost my place atop the WC medals list to Kendrick and Smarch. Here's a thread: https://vhlforum.com/topic/22461-world-cup-medals-by-player-and-by-member/

 

 

In all likelihood, making European players will not help my chances at all, but then the massive Irishman that is Greg Clegane did get quite a few medals. So maybe all hope is not lost.

 

Anyway, looking forward to seeing stuff appear for this tournament in the next week. *nudge* *wink*
