If you would like to discuss anything about the /adv/ team, you can do so in the talk page.
Being one of the Original Sixteen, /adv/ has been a quiet yet reliable team for the entirety of the 4chan Cup. By now names like 5inchdick and S/adv/irgin are recognized by nearly all Cup spectators because of their long road traveled. They were slow to find their footing early on, ranking 8th in the inaugural 2012 Summer Cup and failing to qualify for the first Spring Babby. Things changed by Autumn 2012 with progression to the Round of 16, and improved further in the 2013 Winter Cup. It was there that /adv/ were grouped in the famous Group Hell. After hard-fought but bitter losses to /a/ and /mlp/, /adv/ were considered dead-on-arrival in their third game against /m/. What happened next, to many, was the most celebrated upset not only in team history, but in all of 4chan Cup history. /adv/ humiliated /m/ with a 6-1 blowout, confounding absolutely everyone present, relegating /m/ and /mlp/, and themselves surviving all the way to the Quarter Finals. After that, /adv/ was a quintessential yo-yo team, being relegated and then promoted from every cup right up until the 2014 Spring Babby, where they failed to promote. Most recently, they failed to promote again in the 2015 Spring Babby, losing twice after a good start to bury themselves.

History
Summer 11: The Original Team
/adv/ was one of 16 boards that entered the inaugural 4chan Cup competition, the 2011 Summer Cup with a team of players distinctly different from the sort of players that teams use today. Their first match was a 3-1 loss to /tv/, but they did form a brief losers bracket run eliminating rivals /soc/ as well /int/ before bowing out to /mu/. Their performance was just enough to put them in the top half, finishing 8th overall.
Winter 12-Winter 13: The Fall and Rise
For the 2012 Winter Cup four new boards were added. To keep the bracket from needing any byes or preliminary, the 4 least popular boards were removed from the competition to make way for Second Founding. /adv/ was one of those boards. Though the other 3 boards that were dropped soon made their return for the 2012 Spring Babby, /adv/ were disqualified for not completing their team on time and were instead replaced by /an/.
Their return finally came in the 2012 Autumn Babby. They started out with two draws in a row against /soc/ and /lit/ with their gold striker 5inchdick providing all their goals. With both of those teams on 4 points by /adv/’s final game they needed a win against /gif/ to advance to the knockouts and out of the babbies. A 4-0 victory secured /adv/’s place in the Winter Cup. They earned 5th place in the babbies, eventually being eliminated by rivals /r9k/ in the most dreadful match of football ever seen in the cup.
/adv/’s 2013 Winter Cup started with them being placed in Group Hell with /m/, /a/ and /mlp/. Given the strength of their opposition they were instantly deemed relegation favourites. Though there were plenty of goals in their matches against /a/ and /mlp/, they would both end up being losses for /adv/. Their final match was against the titanic /m/, ranked 2nd best team in the cup at the time. A 2 goal victory was needed to give /adv/ safety from relegation. The now legendary match between is considered by most to be one of if not the biggest upset in 4chan Cup history: /adv/ 6 - 1 /m/.
Summer 13-Winter 14: Yo-yo Seasons
The Summer Cup started with /adv/ being drawn against /mlp/ once again, /trv/ and /f/. The momentum had certainly dissipated from their previous cup run as they eventually found themselves being relegated. 1-0 losses against /trv/ and /mlp/ meant their win over /f/ was not enough for survival. AI glitches were not kind to /adv/, though the fact they did not score a single goal from open play shows how weak they were.
/adv/ were much improved for the following Autumn Babbies, where they won all three of their group matches against /asp/, /c/ and /po/ to 9 point their group and bounce back up to the elites. /toy/ defeated /adv/ in their first knockout match and eventually went on to win the babbies themselves.
Now looking to prove a point that their elimination from the elites was just a fluke, /adv/ started the 2014 Winter Cup with a win versus /cm/. When it came to a rematch against /a/, /adv/ once again let 4 goals past. Though they still had a good chance of qualifying, an embarrasing 3-7 loss against /cgl/ saw relegated /adv/ once again.
Spring 14-Present: Stuck in the Babbies
The 2014 Spring Babbies was /adv/’s worst ever performance in a cup, failing to win a single match or even score a goal by themselves. /k/’s keeper Castle Doctrine’s own goal meant that he was /adv/’s top scorer. Losses to /pol/ and /co/ as well as draws against /k/ and /lit/ meant that they finished 34th place out of 40 teams.
Their fortunes were better for Autumn, where they managed wins over /tv/ and over /v/ in a very entertaining 5-4 match. However it was losses against /lit/ and /s/ that saw them promoted over /adv/ where a draw against either of them may have put /adv/ through instead.
Disqualification in 2012, a dreadful performance in 2014 and some bad luck in 2015 meant that the season of spring started to seem cursed. An opening win against /y/ gave /adv/ some hope early on in the campaign. The next match against /po/ saw a 69 minute long lead for /adv/ swing the other way as /po/ scored in the 88th minute and again in injury time to steal all 3 points. While they controlled the match against /cm/ for a solid 70 minutes, they failed to find the back of the net and once /cm/ got a goal the match was theirs. Mathematically relegated by their last match, a 4-2 loss to /o/ capped off another bad cup.
Rivalries
/adv/ vs. /r9k/: The Beta Bowl
Sharing so many identical features, /adv/'s main rival is the once-feared ROBOT9000, now a festering shell of its former self as ROBOT9001. Matches between the two sides usually result in no-score draws due to both teams being scared of touching the ball in case anything bad happens.
