A founding member of the 4chan Cup and the original board of 4chan, /b/ are a well-established and (somewhat ironically) respectable side. After going winless for two tournaments in a row, /b/ finally got their break in the 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup and kept up the good form in the 2013 4chan Summer Cup, winning 3rd place and dramatically changing the way people see /b/.
After /b/'s success in the 2013 4chan Summer Cup, they promptly lost 3 out of 4 friendlies. In a futile attempt, /b/ got knocked out of the 2014 4chan Winter Cup, putting them is right back where they started.
4chan Cup History
2011 4chan Summer Cup
/b/ was an unwanted entry in the original 4chan Cup. As much as everyone hates the board, you can't have a 4chan cup without /b/. In the first tournament and the first 4chan Cup match ever, /x/ proved to be 2SPOOKY4/b/ as they won 2-1, sending them to the Losers' Bracket. /fa/ would eliminate /b/ here in a match that ended 1-0 with Cufflink being the man of the match.
2012 4chan Winter Cup
Though /b/ didn't get too far into the competition, this was a very memorable performance from the team. In the first round, /b/ would send the defending champions /a/ to the Losers' Bracket due to /a/ scoring an idiotic own goal, and Chocolate Rain scoring for /b/ at the last minute. Next, /x/ would once again scare the shit out of /b/, who couldn't win despite a Chocolate Rain hat trick as /x/ won the match 4-3. In the Losers' Bracket, /b/ won against underdogs /o/ 2-0, with /o/'s fanbase being remarkably calm about this loss as they went out of the competition without scoring goals. /b/'s run would end in the next round as /tg/ beat them 3-0.
2012 4chan Summer Cup
With the new format and teams from the Spring Babby cup joining the fun, /b/ was hoping to have a performance similar to the Winter cup. Actually, that's not true since /b/ doesn't care about the competition and it's best if it stays that way. /b/ was drawn into Group E with /sp/, /o/, and /d/. After /sp/ made a very memorable comeback against /d/, /b/ cooled the crowd off with a dull 1-1 draw with /o/ with their queen Boxxy scoring. Next, /sp/'s single goal from Messi gave them all they needed in a rather calm match against /b/ that ended with the score being 1-0. /b/ needed a win to have a chance to go through to the next stage, but instead they were greeted with a 5-3 loss to /d/ and were sent to the babbies along with /o/ due to the low amount of points both teams had.
2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup
Before the cup even began, /b/ had a memorable 4-3 win against /v/ in their preparation friendlies. Apart from that, they had a 0-0 draw with /c/ and a 2-2 draw with /soc/ to think about as they went into the competition. Their cancerous cousins /r9k/ would join them in Group H along with /vg/ and /u/. Because Germanbro forgot to make certain changes to the ratings of some /b/ players, the team had to be rigged with said players being placed out of position. While it seemed like /vg/ would win the first match of the group, /b/ would draw level with a goal from Triforce, much to Germanbro's butthurt. Next, up-and-coming /r9k/ would win against /b/ with Japanese Lettuce Hardcore drowning /b/ with feels. With /vg/ losing to /r9k/, this left them with 4 points, meaning that if /b/ could win their next match against /u/ by 2 goals, they would qualify for the next Winter Cup. Despite conditioning being against /u/ in comparison to /b/, the match ended in a 0-0 draw, keeping /b/ in the babbies.
2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup
After the previous babby cup, Cosa Nostra had taken a lengthy hiatus from 4chan cup activity. Said hiatus went on for so long that /b/'s first group stage match was already played by the time Cosa Nostra came back. /c/ enjoyed a 4-1 win over an unmanaged /b/, with Triforce scoring the consolation goal. Though /co/ had just lost to /fa/, a team that hadn't won since the Wardrobe Malfunction incident, they were still considered favorites against /b/. Despite Cosa Nostra's absence, /b/ was able to surprise everyone by winning 1-0 with Anonymous proving he is, in fact, LEEJUN. Cosa Nostra returned soon after this match and it was time for him to do or die: Even winning might not have been enough if /c/ won against /co/ by enough goals. Despite this, /b/ got another surprising 1-0 win with Triforce scoring the winner against /fa/. Because /co/ beat /c/ in the match that followed, /b/ returned to the Summer Cup. /b/'s troll-tastic streak of wins was cut short by /soc/ in the Round of 16 after a tough 2-0 loss.
2013 4chan Summer Cup
/b/ went into maximum overdrive with their troll football: /b/ was not only one of the tallest teams in the cup, which led to more butthurt about height abuse, they also had a historic run to 3rd place. Their run started with a 2-0 win over the hyped /d/. Triforce danced all over /d/'s defense, and James Holmes finished the match off at the 80th minute. /lit/'s horrific debut to a major cup continued with a 4-1 loss to /b/, with Triforce scoring 4 goals. The cancer derby (or Popularity Derby as it's known on this page) with /v/ was up next and it disappointed. /b/ lost 1-0 in a dull match where Gaben's goal was the only bit of excitement.
In the round of 16, the >/m/ council came up with rather strange tactics that made their defense very leaky. /m/'s offense was still something to look out for, and by the end of the first half, /b/ was winning 3-2. A killer shot from James Holmes gave /b/ their 4th goal, which was enough to eliminate /m/ in a 4-3 win. The quarterfinals brought /b/ a great struggle with /trv/, but they got past it in true /b/ style. Despite /trv/ having twice the shots, /b/ won 1-0.
/mu/ ended /b/'s dreams to win the whole cup in a tense 1-0 loss in the semifinals. However, /b/ still managed to get somewhat of a happy ending: /v/ also got sent to the third place playoff, so /b/ got a rematch for the previous 1-0 loss. Triforce got /b/ ahead first, and then No Fun Allowed scored a ridiculous own goal. Though SANIC tried to make /b/'s players go deaf with his goalhorn, Triforce put the match away with a goal of his own, giving /b/ an originally unexpected third place finish.
2014 4chan Winter Cup
After such a great run in the last summer, /b/ had to prove themselves worthy of that third place finish. Instead of getting third place in the cup, /b/ got third place in their group, relegating them once again. The once great James Holmes had such an atrocious run in the cup that a video was made out of his horrible decision making. In the final group stage fixture, /soc/ had a 4-2 win over /hr/. /b/ only needed a draw against /an/ to survive, but instead lost 1-0 with a massive blunder in /b/'s final push for a goal that led to /b/ trolling themselves out of the cup.
2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup
The Babby Cup had a new format with 8 groups of 5 teams, and /b/ was drawn in what some would call a gay group since /fa/, /hm/, and /lgbt/ were there along with /b/ and /out/. At the start, /b/ looked strong in a 3-1 win over /out/, but then drew against a rigged /fa/ that had 3 silver players and only one gold as a punishment. Disaster stuck when /lgbt/ crushed /b/ 4-1. The combination of results from /lgbt/ vs /hm/ and /fa/ vs /out/ made it mathematically impossible for /b/ to get promoted back to the 2014 4chan Summer Cup. /b/ unleashed their rage at this on /hm/ with a 5-2 win that meant nothing for either team.

Rivalries
Old Firm - /b/ vs. /a/
As two of the oldest and biggest boards on 4chan, a rivalry is expected. Some others call this the Cancerigenous Derby, both teams have a reputation they must uphold.
Cancer Derby - /b/ vs. /v/
/v/ and /b/ are the two most high-traffic boards on 4chan, and there is always a substantial amount of vidya content on /b/ while /v/ is often plagued by non topic threads. This often leads to cries of /v/ being called "/b/ 2.0".
Cancer Derby Jr. - /b/ vs. /soc/
Being a child board of /b/, /soc/ considers /b/ to be their archrivals. It wasn't until the 2014 4chan Winter Cup that /b/ acknowledged this as a rivalry.
