Since the dawn of time, anons from far and wide have come to /sci/ to post their IQ and take autism tests. The best and brightest of these pseuds have come together and put forth 23 of their finest memes and beloved scientists to represent them in the 4chan Cup. Over 10 years after the team's founding, the /sci/entists are looking to put their Ph.D's to use and sperg their way into the history books, and after many trials and tribulations the team had achieved victory in the 2023 Autumn Babby Cup. So put down that CS book and get ready to do some real science, brainlet.

Cup & Match History
Main Article: /sci/ History
2024 Summer Cup
After a fourth place exit in the previous winter, /sci/ was excited for its team to ignite its engines and leave the competition inhaling whatever exhaust products they produced. With a 5-2 win over the previous spring's runner up /sp/ to start the group stage, /sci/ had established itself as a powerhouse on the very heavily offensive PES 16. Such energy would not be seen from /sci/ in the next two matches against /toy/ and /x/, as against the former the attack only managed to secure 2 goals in regulation. This wouldn't have been a problem, /toy/ had only managed to respond once, but then the game would completely fall apart for /sci/ in injury time as Woody and Madoka Titus sunk in two 90+ goals to rob /sci/ of another 3 points. Instead of /sci/ being more or less safe at the top of a 6-6-3-0 group, the game against /x/ had effectively become a must win in order to advance, the only way to move forward on a draw or a loss was is /toy/ could beat /sp/. /sci/ was staring down one of its many white whales, tensions were high as the first half of the game was uneventful but was eventually opened up after Feynman had lodged a penalty kick in the back of /x/'s net, A follow up by You SHOULD be able to solve this a few minutes later had the team on a 2-0 lead that it would hold until /x/-tan managed to score in fergie time. Thankfully the game ended before the debacle with /toy/ could repeat itself and /sci/ confirmed through to the knockouts. Continuing onto the Round of 16, the /sci/borgs once against faced /d/, and once again /sci/ managed to dispatch the /d/eviants just as they did six months prior. While it may have been that /d/ was sitting at 2 goals to /sci/'s 1 at the end of the first half, the offense that was so sorely missed after the game against /sp/ returned in full force in the second to swing the game to a victorious 5-2 and the team would move forward to the final day to face /u/. Unfortunately disaster would strike and /sci/'s metaphorical rocket engines would explode in a miserable 2-7 defeat, leaving /sci/ with yet another Quarter Final defeat while /u/ would go all the way to the championship game, only to lose to the [wsg] in the same 3-4 scoreline seen in the previous Winter's third place match. While somewhat demoralized, /sci/ had largely performed well on a PES it had previously done poorly on and was looking forward for what would come in winter.
2025 Winter Cup
With the end of the Summer, the cup returned to PES 17, a version PES that /sci/ had historically done well on. Drawn against /his/, /int/, and /v/ many still favored /sci/ to advance out of their group and stay in the elites. However the first game against /his/ did not go very well as his managed to rack up two goals before Shinichi managed to get one on the board late into the game. The anemia undermining /sci/'s offense would continue into the next game against the white whale of /int/, who ran up a 4 goals with only a pitiful few shots that were wide from /sci/'s strikers in response. The loss relegated /sci/ and had the team looking at the possibility that they might spoon the tournament, and when ultimate group stage game against /v/ began it looked like /sci/ would fail yet again as /v/ got an early goal and /sci/'s offense failed to amount to much for most of the game. It was only with tactical changes in the last minutes that You SHOULD be able to solve this managed to score a couple of goals, securing a win for the team when all seemed lost. /sci/'s would be headed to the Spring Babby for the first time in 3 years, the only consolation in light of its poor performance being that the ignominy of coming in dead last was avoided.

Statistics
Main Article: /sci/ Player Statistics
Trivia
- /sci/ is one of only 2 teams to have drawn 30 or more games.
- Despite being the longest tenured keeper on the team, Stephen Hawking finished his goalkeeping career only recorded seven clean sheets in an 11 year period, averaging less than 1 per year, and his first recorded clean sheet did not come until 2017. For comparison, Thorium, the second leader in clean sheets, had a short career spanning four years averaged over 1 clean sheet per year.
- /sci/ went 10 years without promoting from a Spring Babby Cup in a way that didn't involve a scandal or a controversial decision (2012-2022), being eligible to play in 6 of them; staying within the same subject, /sci/ spent 8 years without promoting from an Autumn Babby Cup (2014-2022), although they only participated in 4 thanks to a combination of staying elite and one forfeit.
- As of the time of writing /sci/ has conceded goals in 91.1% of games played.
- In the 2023 Summer Cup, Norman Wildberger scored /sci/'s first double brace since Richard Feynman's against /diy/ in 2015
- As of October 2023, /sci/ has never won on Halloween weekend.
- /sci/ became the second team to register a four medal performance in a Final, against /mlp/, the first team that achieved this feat against /tv/ in Spring 2013.

Rivalries
/lit/ - The Intellectualism Derby |
A match filled with brains and boredom (specially the 10+ minute managing spaghetti at the 2013 Spring Babbies), both boards enjoy reading but /sci/ prefers books that have the purpose of understanding the universe and physics while /lit/ prefers to read made up stories that are 2deep4u. The /lit/erati see the /sci/entists as a soulless team, as for The Science Team say they are just jelly of their 300k starting jobs in Math because they took an actual helpful God Tier Major instead of ending up on the dole because of their shit tier majors. As for 4CC matters, /lit/ has won three official matches and an old offical friendly, but /sci/ will keep on testing until they can find a scientifically proven tactic that will drive them to victory.

/pol/ - The Progress Bowl |
Both boards want the best for humanity, although they both disagree on some aspects: /pol/ disagrees with the moral values of /sci/ and /sci/ disagrees with the ethnic cleansing proposals of /pol/. These matches are filled with air raids and nuclear testings so the happenning is now. Both boards have met three times, the first time was a 2-1 victory for the /sci/entists with goals by Richard Feynman and Dawkins, the next one was a 2-1 win for the /pol/acks in the 2012 Summer Cup friendlies. Given /pol/'s elite status and /sci/'s decline both boards had to wait one year to face each other again, this time in the 2013 Summer Cup, where both teams were already eliminated but that didn't stop them from having fun at the infamous Doompaul pitch, whereas /sci/ won 1-0 with a goal by Bill Nye to put the ball back in /sci/'s court. These teams would not face each other for nearly 4 years, this time in a complete different scenario, the 2017 Spring Babby Qualifiers, /pol/ in shambles after disastrous performances one after the other and /sci/ returning after a year of hiatus, both teams were put on a do or die situation where a draw would favor /sci/, taking into account the horrid performances by /pol/ in their new stadium, /sci/ opted to use their stadium instead of the Time Cube, this time around both teams gathered for a joint anthem to protest Bill Nye's brainlet views on gender. Richard Feynman put 2 goals that were enough to gain the draw to advance and bury /pol/ in their stadium, being buried by a Jewish scientist that scored twice on them on the same day that marked the anniversary of Hitler's suicide. The most recent matchup was in Summer 18 and saw /sci/ bury /pol/ 2-1 and staying elite at their expense, while they headed to the inferno of the babbies. /sci/ and /pol/ would meet again in Spring 22 losing to /pol/ 1-2 for the first time in an official cup match, both promoted anyway. While /sci/ normally opposes the idea of slavery, they seem content on owning /pol/.

/x/ - Take Your Meds |
A rivalry as old as /sci/'s founding. Many a post about supernatural horseshit or schizophrenic opinions about physics has found it's way onto /sci/ from the Time Cube to Electric Universe, yet they do not belong here and most /sci/borgs would wish that whoever posted them would instead go to /x/ where they belong. Starting off with a painful 0-3 loss in an official friendly back in the spring of 2013, /sci/ would grind out an uneventful 0-0 draw when the two teams met for the first time in a cup match 6 years later. Another loss against /x/ would occur in the fall of 2023 in the group stage, what was /sci/'s first game in what would become its title run. Despite the poor showing that had been established, /sci/ rose to the challenge to beat /x/ in the Summer of 2024 during a must win game in order to advance to the knockouts, finally overcoming a opponent that would have become an recurring obstacle.

1 Win - 1 Draw - 2 Losses

/diy/ - Science vs. Engineering |
An age old question that has been argued for years: Which is more useful, Science or Engineering? This derby plans to settle the debate once and for all with /sci/ and /diy/ facing each other for philanthropic dominance. The first matchup between these two boards was in the 2013 Autumn Babby Cup friendlies, on which /diy/ managed to pull a draw with the /sci/entists. These two teams would not face each other (barring friendlies and invitationals where /sci/ won a game and drew the other) until the 2015 4chan Winter Cup in a decisive match where it was a situation of do or die for both teams in order to advance, /diy/ struck first with an early 2-0, but with Feynman’s once-in-a-lifetime shot, a miracle performance by CB Triple Integrals and a goal by Bosnia’s Brave Nikola Tesla made /sci/ take a trip to the knockouts and the advantage on this rivalry. They would meet again in the 2015 Autumn Babby Cup but with a strong /diy/ and a /sci/ in a do-or-die situation, things looked to be a bit lopsided… and they were, in favour of /sci/, giving the /sci/borgs their largest win recorded so far. Both teams failed to advance but at least /sci/ can still maintain the “all engineers are fags” statement as law.
