Tactics
Intro
A veteran of the 4chan Cup, /vg/'s history is a bumpy ride of ups and downs. The team contains the greatest in >talent from many of the board's generals, and the hope is that at some point they'll stop shitposting and bickering enough to maybe be successful. Rarely does that happen, however exciting the on-field product may end up being.

/vg/ League
Since the 2013 4chan Autumn Babby Cup, the /vg/ League has been the way /vg/ has determined its roster for cups. Initially, only medal players were decided with this method, with other players being chosen by way of contacting the board's fastest generals. However, the /vg/ League now determines the entire /vg/ roster, with a meta player being a permanent gold (currently Git Gud), while the second gold and both silvers are determined by the top three teams in the League. So far, nine incarnations of the /vg/ League have been completed.

The Rivalry
 /v/ - Vidya Derby |
Since /vg/ is /v/'s little brother, some sibling rivalry is bound to ensue. Everything BUT Videogames vs. Everything BUT Videogames (in general form!), who will come out on top?
To date the all time record has /v/ winning 2 out of 3 matches, with both of their wins coming in friendlies. However, /vg/'s lone win in the series came during an elite cup and served to relegate /v/, so the rivalry is sure to be heated from now on. An unofficial friendly match was played between the two before the 2015 4chan Winter Cup, with /v/ winning 1–0, and both teams have met three times in each of the two Vidya Bowls. The third official Vidya Bowl came in the 2017 4chan Summer Cup group stage, three years to the last. /v/ got another early lead, but unfortunately /vg/ could not turn same magic they did long ago and only got an equalizer, which ended up being the difference between relegation and advancement. Of course, both teams went and completely shat the bed following their relegation, so it is entirely possible the next meeting of this rivalry happens in a Spring Babby Cup near (You). |

Team History
The /vg/ League 8 took place before the Summer Cup; with defending champion /ddg/ ded, veteran /llsifg/'s idols took first place and the second gold, while relative newcomer /lzg/ took second and /gsg/, one of the oldest participants, finally overcame their knockout woes and claimed third. Of note was /twg/ failing to win a match and thus being left off the /vg/ roster for the first time since Autumn 2012.
/vg/ were drawn into Group B with their eternal rivals, the white whale of their past, and a team they haven't played since 2014. The first match of the Summer Cup was against /tv/; /tv/ had beaten /vg/ twice in their early history, although technically /vg/ "won" both matches 1–3. A very end-to-end affair with each team having heavily threatening chances, the match did not see its first goal until the 36th minute, when Git Gud got gud and ended his scoring drought with a header. Just five minutes later, /tv/'s equalizer came, a result of Real Human Being and Brendan Fraser making /vg/'s defense look foolish. The match stagnated from there on, /tv/ seeming slightly more threatening on offense but unable to do anything in the final third, until the 80th minute. Wilhelm II converted an Umbrella corner into a goal and waggled his willy for a whole ten minutes as he ended up scoring the winning goal in a 2–1 match. From here the situation going into the /v/ match was simple; win and remain elite (not to mention six months of being able to brag about /vg/ beating their biggest rival). Unfortunately, /v/ scored a goal within 12 minutes courtesy of that fucking Scuttlebug and had many more chances to take the win themselves. /vg/'s defense somehow managed to hold the fort, while Git Gud stayed gud and equalized at the 68th minute. Fun was strictly disallowed and the end result was 1–1, the first draw in the (official match) history of the Vidya Bowl. This meant that /vg/ needed to not lose to advance, something they have historically had some trouble doing on the final day. It fucking happened again. Lolicatgirls scored a meme header in 2 minutes, and despite Smug Redman finally scoring, Xiao Mei Mei got /f/ a second at the 33rd minute. /vg/ had a few chances to get the draw and stay elite, but Bourbon House kept them out and allowed /f/ to (successfully) park the bus late. /vg/ lost 1–2, relegated with their rivals by a single goal. As such, the same roster from Summer will be back in the Autumn Babby Cup.
Back in the Babbies for the first time in a year, /vg/ were expected by many to easily get back up and the group draw only served to bolster these claims as they were drawn with not one, not two, but THREE teams even more notorious for choking, two of which /vg/ had officially played before (one of the matches having resulted in a rare pre-2016 goalfest, won by /vg/, and another resulting in the only point of /vg/'s worst ever performance). However, /vg/ got off to a dreadful start; against a completely stagnant /soc/, they failed to score a goal for the first time since Winter 2017 and only the third time in the past two years, without even a decent amount of shots to cry PES with, while conceding one early goal to Vocaroo and taking a 0–1 loss in their first match. The next match wasn't much better. /vg/'s offensive struggles continued, as they only put up two shots. When WORSHIP fouled /co/'s lord/lead striker Doom late, /vg/ appeared to be on the fast track to being one of the first teams eliminated from Autumn. However, in a complete miracle of PES, Doom missed the ensuing penalty, the match ended 0–0 (the first slurper of the tournament!) and /vg/ still had a small chance of advancing. The small chance became a legitimate one when /co/'s next act ended; a 6–1 destruction of /soc/ meant that be it /k/ or /vg/, the winner of the next match would see themselves headed for the Autumn knockouts and more importantly, Winter. /vg/ got off to a terrible start against /k/, conceding two goals within 35 minutes. Only 5 minutes later, Git Gud scored, and /vg/ were back in the match. Although /vg/ had many good attempts throughout the second half as momentum seemed to shift exclusively towards their side, none of them went in, and although by full time the stats actually were enough for some to cry PES, it didn't matter. With this 1–2 loss combined with the horrors of the first two matches, /vg/ found themselves eliminated by a likable team on the final day of the group stages for the second time in a row, headed towards the return of the MEGABABBY thanks in large part to the offensive failures of a medal setup maligned as potentially the worst in /vg/ history.
Shortly after the Autumn Babby, /vg/ management saw shakeups thanks to retirements and new people getting verified. The /vg/ League 9 occurred, with the defending champions and one of the last standing /vg/ League Elites being among the generals forcibly removed from the roster. /aog/ won the VGL9, /gsg/ took second place, /vitagen/ took third, and /hsg/ (who are getting a bronze rather than the starting keeper spot due to the new medal system, although this was not reflected in the 2018 4chan Winter Cup Friendlies) took fourth. The new roster saw initial action in the unofficial 2018 4chan Winter Cup Friendlies, where it ripped apart both opponents it played (the first 5–1, the second 5–2). Probably due to streamer rigging, in both cases. But who cares when you won two straight?
