2018

The Beginning & The 2018 4chan Spring Babby Cup Qualifiers

On May 21, 2017, four individuals poked their heads into a thread on /bant/, Q2 !!dqVfJ/UWfpF, Grill !!u8ODbK/RIz+, Niner !!CirnoTm38w and EternalFlip !!57l0cbOWbkI, and later onto a PiratePad document, and the 4chan Cup would never be remain the same. Scraping together a plethora of fresh new memes and beloved characters from around /bant/, the four set out to prepare for entry in Spring of 2018.

Unfortunately, the fated four was not to last. Q2 !!dqVfJ/UWfpF and Niner !!CirnoTm38w dropped out due to life issues early within the project. However, board interest was sufficient enough to justify /bant/'s entry into the 4chan Cup, so not all was bad.

As the roster grew and memes develop, /bant/ was confirmed on April Fools Day 2018, and was granted entry into the 2018 4chan Spring Babby Cup, along autopiloted teams like /t/, /3/, /gif/ and fellow newcomer /aco/.

First up was /gif/, both team managers all newcomers to the Cup. Our Lovely Queen scored an early lead from a penalty kick, however, /gif/'s offense was undeterred, and /gif/'s JAV scored on Cockeyes, totalling it up to 1-1. Luckily for the upstarts, Alzheimer's finally remembered how to score and struck, bringing up the scores to 1-2. /bant/'s defense, pulling out the stops to retain this score, succeeded, and /bant/ secures her very first win on her very first match!

Next on the block is fellow newcomer /aco/, despite a pressuring offense, /bant/ made sure the pooftahs fucked off all in the first half, but /aco/'s defense was too sturdy for anyone in /bant/ to get anything in. However it started to go downhill in the second half, with Xenophilia failing to fuck off and scoring, giving /aco/ an lead, 0-1. With little time to rest, /bant/ is immediately paired up with /3/, so far undefeated. /bant/ is under immense pressure. They must either win, draw or lose by 1 to be confirmed for the Megababby, unfortunately Borche got his second yellow card and is thus suspended. However /bant/'s hopes are realized after Leaf Girl scores her first official goal, bringing it up to 0-1, but is immediately answered by /3/, and the future looks bleak as /3/ scores once more, 2-1. However, /bant/ held in there, and despite the loss, /bant/ was confirmed for the Spring Megababby due to /aco/'s dead GD.

The 2018 4chan Spring Babby Cup

With /bant/ out of the Qualifiers, it was time for their entry into the cup proper. First up is /ck/, a team only remembered for their owngoals and excellent blenders.

But unfortunately this isn't 2017. With /o/ fallen to /ck/ previously and /ck/ already warmed up, things went terribly for the upstart /bant/, and the team was sent packing at a whopping 4-0. With -4 in the hole in GD, /bant/ can't back out now; and it was back to the drawing board to prepare for next week's games; all the while desperately searching for new talent.

On the week of May 7, the team had picked up their first dedicated tester, and their suggestions and help paid off well. With new memetic tactics in their service, /bant/ prepared to go up against /po/. Practice on the field and testing tactics paid off well, and Toothpaste Kagari and Queen showed their wings as a result, with Queen scoring twice in the first half, and the defense and Kagari breaking every /po/ printer offense that came their way, and /bant/ secured their first win in the Babby Cup, killing off /po/ and securing their place in the Babbys!

Fresh off their first true victory against /po/, the managers and tester got right back to work preparing against /g/, the favorite to win with /bant/ as the underdog. However, despite mounting pressure from /g/, the team held firm, and Alzheimers remembered he was a GOD, and earned a beautiful Brace for /bant/, and right after the half, with /g/'s stamina shot, Burdo got his time to shine with his first goal, and our Captain Leaf Girl made a beautiful finishing header at 90+4 to secure /bant/'s safety! With 6 points on the board and a positive goal difference, the path looks exponentially clear for /bant/ to unironically reach the Elites on their very first Babby Cup. Although it wasn't /o/'s year yet, they were the final obstacle against securing /bant/'s path to the elite. With /ck/ soundly defeated at the hands of /g/, /bant/ must win or draw to qualify for summer; and by God, they did it. With Alzheimer's scoring a goal but Miata answering, /bant/ successfully held out against /o/'s onslaught, and ended the match at 1-1, securing /bant/'s draw(win) and wonderfully qualifying /bant/'s spot in the Summer Elites!

With /bant/ safely in the elites, their toughest challenge on the horizon was /soc/, who dominated their group, and it was clear it wasn't for show. /soc/ managed to score early but things were going to plan, and /bant/ planned to punish the /soc/ialites for their early gegenpress push. But then the stream and game crashed, the conditions were reset and /bant/'s strategy went out the window and /bant/'s Round of 16 ended early due to rigging of the highest tier at 3-1.

With a bitter, undeserved defeat at the hands of /soc/ behind them, Team /bant/ walked away, heads held high for the Summer Elites; which was the true achievement of this cup.

/bant/'s Elite Debut (Summer 2018)

Reinvigorated by their promotion, /bant/ came out swinging in their first Elite Debut against /an/, and despite Leaf Girl feeling down, she was able to fire off a shot, giving /bant/ an early lead and setting up a crippling goal siege, keeping /an/ well locked down and maintaining pressure with a flurry of strikes from the field. Captain Leaf Girl did not let her poor condition restrain her, and easily muscled /an/'s defenders out of the way and scored again, leaving the team sitting pretty at 0-2. And despite Aussie Girl remembering the Emu War with a undeserved yellow card, /bant/'s beginning in the elites worked out in their favor, and the team secured their first Elite win on their very first game!

After a day's break, /bant/ prepared themselves for their most important match of the day against /fa/. A win gets them through. Fears were realized among /bant/'s fans as /fa/cist /fa/shionista Fuccboi scores early; however, /bant/ set up their elite siege, and Leaf Girl equalizes after a beautiful volley, and Queen follows up about 10 minutes later with another slaying strike. /fa/ attempted to put pressure on /ourteam/ but the two defenders at the back were simply too much, and /bant/ held out. Come 90 minutes despite a last desperate /fa/ offense, it was over. /bant/ had won and became the first team to secure their place in the Round of 16 and the Winter Elites!

However, the worst was to come in their match against /tg/. Inheriting a cursed stadium from /pol/ and up against the most superstitious team in the cup, and it showed. /bant/'s defense was slaughtered by /tg/'s Orks and left in a thick line of cocaine, losing by 5 in a humiliating 1 - 6.

Powerhouse /sp/ held nothing back in their Round of 16 match against /bant/, and the numbers were against the upstarts, and despite a spaghetti first half, /sp/ broke through /bant/'s defense and ended /bant/'s Round of 16 early 0 - 2.

Despite the losses, /bant/ had much to be proud of. They were in the 2019 Winter Elites, no doubt about it, and the team had time to rest for six months, they left the stadium, with only a line of cocaine from last night with /tg/ as a note.

2019

The 2019 Winter Elites

Unfortunately for the upstart nuevo elites, this is where it all falls apart, /bant/'s favorite 2-6-2 had a longball chink in their armor, along with PES 16 having poor AI defenders, allowing /biz/ and /vg/ victories over our struggling heroes, ultimately relegating them for the near-certain future. There's a slight glimmer of hope on the horizon, but it is only a glimmer, and /bant/'s future in the Elites is looking very grim, indeed.
And grim it was. Bottoming out against /vp/ at a 2-4, ending their group and ultimately spooning the Winter Elites with no wins and a mere five goals.
Banter of banter; all is banter.

The 2019 Spring Babby Cup

Thoroughly humbled by the Wooden Spoon, the /bant/its prepare themselves to crawl back to the top. And it's the newest team in the cup, versus the oldest team in the cup for their first match, /a/. Isekai'd early on by Truck-kun, /bant/ brought on signature /bant/er by scoring via Bat Loli corner meme. And when it dragged on forever, struggling to keep up with /a/'s aggression and superior control, Bat Loli came through once more with a diving header from the corner, drawing (read: winning) against /a/ at the last minute.
Next however, was the biggest (moral) challenge yet. The only team with a (unjustified) claim on >our Queen, /jp/, which turned out to be a total slurpfest of 0-0, with The Queen's fate being unknown.

/bant/'s fight for the Babbys would finally come to an end against /diy/, and despite Okay, Real Talk getting a goal, /diy/'s MacGyver made a win out of a fishe and a Leaf, and /bant/'s run in the Babbys flopped with a 1-2 loss.

The 2019 Autumn Babby Cup

Fresh off the Wooden Spoon win in the last babby cup, /bant/ returned to the fetus with aims to rise to glory once more. The team topped the group and advanced from the fetus to the babby cup proper. There, the team met up with fellow memers [s4s], /b/, and /wsg/. /bant/ failed to qualify with an unremarkable perfomance aside from tying the record for 'most own goals in a single game' in the match with /wsg/.

The 2020 Spring Babby Cup

Once again returning to the fetus as an autopilot, the team advanced to the baby where an uneventful performance did not result in advancement.

The 2020 Autumn Babby Cup

The once proud /bant/ team floundered again with poor autopilot performance. For their efforts, the team was voted to be the 'least exciting team' of the tournament.

2021

The 2021 4chan World Cup

In recognition of the tenth anniversary of the 4chan Cup, /bant/ was invited to the World Cup. Despite a stellar performance by Leaf Girl in a tense match against the pirates of /t/ and a rare goal by Borche against /diy/, the team did not make the group stage and went out on head to head points with /out/.

The 2021 Autumn Babby Cup

For this season /bant/ got a new manager, who brought some small changes to the roster and very original tactics. The heart of the originality was Kot's promotion to gold defender-advanced-midfield in the coolest fluid export ever seen. Being very cool doesn't win games. The team had a mediocre run on the group stage, losing 3-1 against /toy/ on the first match, with the goal being Kot's first. Things looked up after /bant/ tied with /x/, that seemed the strongest team on the group. On the next weekend, /x/ got destroyed and /bant/ had another 3-1 loss, this time against /vm/. This was the first match match between the teams. The only victory came in the last game against sister board [s4s], who had just been crowned World Champion. Most of the testing was done against [s4s] so that makes lots of sense. /bant/ was spared of the Babby Spoon. For now.

2022

The 2022 Spring Babby Cup

Tactics were more serious this time, no funny fluid defender medals. The current thing was making formations as narrow as possible, most teams were using a 3-4-3 formation, with three centerbacks and no fullbacks. To take advantage of that, /bant/ devised the widest formation ever seen, focusing on playing trough the wings to score from crosses. This cup ended up being /bant/'s worst performance. Just like last cup, /bant/ was on group D and just like last cup, /bant/ lost the first match 3-1. This time against /trv/. The opposing team scored twice in the first half. On the second half, a /bant/ defender scored their first goal... for the other team. /trv/ didn't try anything else for the rest of the game and in the end of the match, Leaf Girl scored to lessen the difference. Both teams scored the same amount of goals, hopes were still high. Later in the same weekend, /bant/ would face /vm/ again, with Duke scoring an early goal. /vm/ didn't get intimidated and dominated the field, scoring two goals before the end of the first half. The second half was looking better, Leaf Girl equalized the game and both teams were playing well, until it happened again. Bantanna, the same defender from last game, scored another own goal. /vm/ then scored two more times, ending the match in a disastrous 5-2. That wouldn't be the lowest point. Two weeks later, the first match ever against /vt/. They started with a goal in the first play, Duke replied with a goal right after the restart. /vt/ then dominated the rest of the match, scoring two more goals in the first half and two goals in the second half, all of the opposing team goals being in a minute ending with 9. /bant/ did not reply. The match ended 5-1. Next: /vg/. It was a tense match. The opponent kept pressing but had no opportunities to shoot, thanks to a stellar performance of the now infamous defender Bantanna, who ended up getting the same score as whoever was man of the match that day. /bant/'s attempts would also not go anywhere, the match ended 0-0. For their efforts, Bantanna was awarded Spaghetti of the Tournment and /bant/ the Wooden Spoon.
Now there is nowhere to go but up!

2022 Autumn Babby Cup, the Lowest of Lows

So, it happened AGAIN. We can blame the new height system, we can blame PES, we can blame the streamer, we can blame the refs, we can blame conditions, we can blame the grass, we can blame society at large, we can praise /b/'s efforts but the truth is it's simply not enough. Tactics, determination you name it, it all stinks.
Don't get me wrong, I still have full faith in Borche and the lads, but MASSIVE reinforcements are desperately needed for Spring. Otherwise I'm not very optimistic about this season, or our chances in going elite for that matter. Not playing like this. What do you think, /bant/? Matches were less one sided this time, /bant/ is almost back.
