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. After finishing 17th in the 2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup, >/fa/ fucked everything possible up to make sure /b/ got into the 2014 4chan Summer Cup. An awful 2-point performance with only 1 goal scored put /b/ back into the Babbies, where they won the cup.
4chan Cup History
- For earlier history: /b/ History
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 originally meant nothing for either team.
A twist of events happened just before the Summer Cup: /fa/'s management had been suspended, and their team was disqualified from the Summer Cup. Their spot was taken by the highest ranked team that did not qualify from the Spring Babbies and that team was /b/.
2014 4chan Summer Cup
/b/'s first two matches in this cup (as well as much of this cup, really) can be quickly summarized with this image:
The grand beauty of these 0-0 thrillers was that they left /b/ in a position where they could avoid relegation if they could just beat /f/, a team that also failed to score any goals in the cup at the time.
They didn't. Trolled 2 Death scored /b/'s only goal of the cup in their 2-1 loss to /f/.
2014 4chan Autumn Babby Cup
Back in a babby cup once more, /b/ got off to a poor start with a 1-0 loss to the debuting /t/. The 0-0 draw to /k/ made it seem like /b/ did not improve from their poor Summer Cup run at all. Fortunately, the team woke up against /d/, defeating them 3-2 with a Triforce hat trick.
At this point, /b/ had to win against /3/ to qualify for the 2015 4chan Winter Cup. An early goal from Trolled 2 Death gave /b/ all they needed in a 1-0 win over /3/ that got them back in a major 4chan cup. In the round of 16, /b/ fought hard against /lit/, and in the additional minutes of the second half, /b/ got the winning goal from The Fappening.
In the other side of the bracket, /vp/ had finally given their fans some joy with wins over /sp/ and /ck/ to reach the quarterfinals. /b/ had the seemingly tough task of facing them, but instead they ended up getting a shockingly easy 4-1 win over /vp/.
As the match against /vp/ began, a cup thread was made on /b/. The attendance for the stream steadily increased as /b/'s semifinal game with /n/ approached, and /b/ did not choke in the spotlight. Facing another team who was finally catching their break, /b/ did not have an easy time, but they got a 2-1 win in the end that sent the /b/-tards to the cup final.
Though /e/ tried so hard to put on a good show, in the end, it didn't even matter as /b/ had little trouble beating them in a massive 2-1 win. For the first time ever, /b/ won a cup. Though it was a babby cup, /b/ look to prove that they are worthy of being called champions in the upcoming Winter Cup.

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. (1-0-0)
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". (2-0-1)
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. (1-1-1)

Trivia
- In the original 4chan cup, /b/ had lower stats than the rest of the teams (because /b/'s users were hated so much by Germanbro) and avoided finishing in last place. Instead, /soc/ was the team to get last place in that cup.
- Two of /b/'s past anthems were determined with GET threads on the board. This led to /b/ having Undersea Community as the anthem since 2012 to Spring 2013.
- During the Spring season of 2013, /b/ got a Boxxy dubstep remix as the anthem for a few matches due to another GET thread. This happened because the manager Cosa Nostra was on a lengthy hiatus and was not back by the time that season's cup started. Once he came back, the anthem was changed back to Undersea Community due to that being changed without his permission.
