As the titans tg, tv, and b all fell to g in the Summer knockout rounds, fans were astonished at the results. Their rationale? “It was only /g/.” But up until that point there was sound reasoning behind such underestimation. Of all the Original Sixteen teams, few would disagree that no team has endured more struggle than /g/. Hard times would fall on the team during the inaugural cup which would kick off a 10-game winless streak and their first descent into the Babbies. Dragongate briefly allowed /g/ back into an elite cup, only to once again see relegation. Things changed somewhat in Autumn 2013 when the team received a big roster and tactical overhall and they finally punched their own ticket to the following Winter. From that point on /g/ upgraded themselves from a punching bag to one of the cup's most reliable yo-yo teams. But this Summer, something truly changed about them. /g/ pulled together as a team to have one of the most ironclad midfields of any team in the cup. Seemingly anyone at all was suddenly capable of scoring a goal. And when all that failed, Golden Glove winner Richard Stallman was there as a veritable firewall against any opponents' attacks. In the end mlp may have hoisted the cup, and they were a stampede through the knockouts, but it wasn't until they met /g/ that they actually started to sweat, and /g/ should take pride in that. After this performance, there's likely few left who consider this team to be “only" /g/. | ||
