There will be at least one, possibly 2. We will be debuting an aerial view for some games.

Experts ranked V at #1 by 1 pt, followed by JKID and four points behind them is Panik. With home field advantage and a full roster how do you not give them #1? JKID is missing people and it's Paniks 1st tourney back minus some players.

This ^

With 2 pools and a clear top 4-5 (team X sounds pretty solid), it's still setting up for the top 4 to meet in the final four anyway. If you trade out Situation for JKID or Panik I'm not clear on how things are that much different.

If reports are true, PA has been practicing a ton leading up to this tourney. I think they'll be quite the opposite of the Meatballs in Jax and will come out firing this weekend.

Take them lightly and you'll find yourself wondering what just happened when it's all said and done. I expect them to be the team to beat.

By the way, not being ranked #1 might be the best thing to happen to Panik. They are going to have a huge chip on their shoulder. I wouldn't want to be the first team they play tomorrow.....

who exactly are the "experts" this is a really lame way to seed a tournament. I have nothing against Flying V, id like to see them win a tournament but they dont derserve to be #1. To be the #1 seed in a tournament you need to have earned it. Just handing that to them is joke.....good luck paper champs

I dont think Panik has any chip on their shoulder . Their season just begins now. NBD... They have a different attack plan on the season thats all. They will win at least 2 events before CC. Trust me.


Teams need to attack the feb-nov season with a game plan. I like what they are about tp do.

It is curious how this tournament was seeded and the pools laid out, and not even talking about just the top 4 teams. It seems like it would have been easy to split teams evenly with only two pools, but pool A is a pool of cake. Beyond the top two teams, Pool B also got the better availables team (Team x), supposedly the best local team (We Own You), and the best remaining non-local team (Legit).

To be fair, JKID would have done MUCH better than PA in the finals. A few innings we only had two guys in the field that had ever played with Panik before.

I think SFKO was done well. How the seedings were done in this tournamrnt really rub me the wrong the way. To base them on "the experts" is a total joke. It looked like everyone on Flying V got on the boards and voted themselve #1. Are we really gonna do seedings based on this?

Def congrats to Flying V for beating PA when they did, but clearly being #1 was huge advatange over #2 and #3. They prob got to rest there pitchers all morning while the other teams had a grind all day.

Seedings need to be done on past results and not on potential Epic Fail IMO

I voted Flying V #1 after careful consideration. They've had the best year of any team in the field and home field advantage. I believe the seeding was fair.

Haha. No. JKID definitely should have been number one in this tourney. JKID has made the finals and what two final fours?

Without a doubt, anyone who would think the seeding in the tourney actually made sense was someone who did not play in this tournament.

The seeding might not have really affected us, but it affected JKID, Team X, and Legit for sure. (Legit and JKID probably the most)

I think our seeding was irrelevant but a total disrespect to JKID. If we were seeded third instead of second it wouldn't change much for us.

They did make the Final 4 in Austin and Jacksonville. Flying V made the final 4 in Austin and jacksonville. JKI played better in their home tourney, and Flying V played better in their home tourney as everyone knew they would.

Personally, I had JKID at 2 bc of PA's 7 month layoff and JKIDs successful 2012 year. I had V #1 bc they won the last game between the two and were at home.
