Rivalries
/vg/ vs /v/ - Since /vg/ is /v/'s little brother, some sibling rivalry is bound to ensue. Everything Videogames vs. Everything BUT Videogames, who will come out on top?
Managerial History
May 2012 - June 2012 Trofflesby !!fPFxZBomxK6
The original founder of /vg/. Never left his name on the page, and so went uncredited for months. However, he was the one who developed /vg/'s popular and stylish 3-5-2 X Quick-Counter formation, as well as creating the initial roster, developing many of the face files, and picking the anthem, Just Wanna Play Video Games. The full extent of the changes and testing done during this period will likely never be revealed, but the earliest save states hint that Chie at least used to be a team member before being subbed out for Matador. This was also the time during which /vg/'s games against /v/, /tg/ & /b/ took place, telling a tale of (mostly) success, earning the team a good standing to start off on.

Late June 2012 - Current CancerousAnonymous !!aW26533QJ29
/vg/'s current manager. Stepped in just after the Summer cup. Gained infamy among fans by spending the first two friendlies of his regime wasting time changing benched 66-skill player names on the roster, making a kit which has so far been completely unused and changing the team's goalhorn with each match, rather than making any tactical changes whatsoever. Likely only managed to avoid being ousted due to the fact that the team inherited from the anonymous founder(s) still somehow managed to find a way and win the friendlies against /h/ and /s/. Ironically, once he did make tactical changes in time for the /tv/ friendly, the changes were not spotted by Germanbro, leaving a loss on /vg/'s hands and his tactical competency still completely unproven.
The Babby cup went off to a rocky start for /vg/, barely drawing 1-1 to a /b/ which was being actively rigged to be worse by GermanBro, due to failing to meet roster deadlines. The /vg/ prospects in Cancer Group of H continued to look poor, as they scraped a win against /u/ - despite Gracen Hallibaster, the /u/ manager, not being present for the match. They seemed to show a bit more form against /r9k/, though lost, a situation which made it possible for /vg/ to be eliminated if /b/ beat /u/, who was by this point already eliminated from the running for Winter.
Thankfully, Gracen delivered, and /vg/ soared into the Round of 16 and, along with it, the Winter Cup. With a match against the 5-defender formation of /y/, it seemed entirely possible for /vg/'s offense to be completely locked out. However, seemingly through sheer dumb luck, /vg/ managed to hold /y/ at 2-2, not only for full-time, but into extra time too. The penalties which followed were one of the greatest gambles in /vg/ history. The following game, the Quarter-finals, were against /soc/, who were fresh from eliminating /v/ in the Round of 16. As such, immense pressure flooded the /vg/ thread from /v/ fans to "avenge" them. Thanks to tactics donated by Gracen Hallibaster, /vg/ managed to dominate the game, finally ending it 6-4 after extra time, it having been 3-3 at full time.
/vg/ had reached the semi-finals, against /wg/, however, the pressure of the last two games going into extra time was weighing heavily on /vg/'s players, while /wg/ was still comparatively fresh. /vg/'s defense completely fell apart from fatigue, with their offensive conditioning doing them no favours. They lost, knocking them out of the running for the cup, and forcing them to fight for 3rd place against the team which had historically stomped them, /tv/. Both teams were appallingly tired, with /vg/ seemingly having the advantage in conditioning. Nonetheless, /tv/ managed to lockdown the game at a solid 3-0 until, in the last minute of the last match of the cup, Gootecks, who had before now completely failed to do anything in the tournament due to a combination of conditioning and chokes, echoed DesWOW's performance in the September 22nd /tv/ friendly and somehow scored, saving face and letting /vg/ "win 1-3".
For a team which had come so close to failing to qualify for Winter, to finish 4th showed great promise for the raw potential of /vg/. However, the apparent reliance of the manager, CancerousAnonymous !!aW26533QJ29, on Gracen - the /u/ manager - to produce any tactics which were halfway competent and innovative, seems concerning. It may cause problems, come Spring, if not Winter. Nonetheless, /vg/'s future looks bright, as it steps into the brave new world of PES2013.
