From humble beginnings as one of the original 16 teams of the 4chan Cup to a championship all their own, /mu/ have persevered through good times and bad. Managed by a crack team (though "alcohol team" sounds more appropriate) of patricians and overseen by Jesus Christ himself, the team seeks not only to win titles but to have fun as well. Whether through our goalhorns, silly socks or ridiculous banter, fun is valued both by the team and the board. After all, how seriously can actually take virtual roundputt based on a Tagalog face-painting website? We have plenty of exciting things planned for 2020, so stay tuned and thank you for your support!

- For earlier history: /mu/ History
Heading into 2020 off a promotion in the Autumn Cup, /mu/ was poised to reclaim it's former glory. Better late than never, a cold reality check was given as effortless throughballs from /u/ led them 3-0 by the 11th minute. After some rocky attempts to plug up the holes, the sacrificed offensive was unable to score until a successful cross at the end of the game. Heading into their next match against /lit/, only god given luck was able to prevent /lit/'s attack from scoring off /mu/'s still shaky defense. Though they were able to score early, /lit/ were able to equalize by the end of the game for a 1-1 draw. After the unexpected shelling of /u/ by /lit/, /mu/'s fate was left to the incredible task of winning by 5 against /fit/ to proceed to the knockouts. /fit/ was riding on a win as well however, and a slugfest ensued, ending in a 4-3 win for /mu/, with Mangum snatching up a double brace. Though relegated once again, the last match was a satisfactory ending note to the cup run.
How do you defend? The question remains unanswered for /mu/ this Spring cup. After conceding twice against their first opponent, /his/, /mu/ were able to soften the blow by scoring once before the end of the first half. Fortunes changed as a more prepared /mu/ were able to reverse the tide and go up 2-0 against /w/, tactical changes by them however quickly washed away the lead, ending the match in a 2-2 draw. With /w/'s win over /his/, /mu/ was relegated and had only glory to gain in their last match against an also relegated, and also autopilot /aco/. Wills broken, /mu/ ended their spring run with 0-3 loss and quietly exited from the cup.
Once again fetused, /mu/ was thrown into the group of fan favourites for the autumn qualifiers. A 3-0 victory against /tg/ brought good tidings, which were needed for the shakey 2-2 draw against /vr/, which was blessed with last minute fumbles or bad passes by /vr/. Despite a flurry of shots against /co/, 6 saves from their keeper gave them a 2-1 win. With 4 points, /mu/ advanced to the autumn babbies proper.
Placed into group B, /mu/ repeated their qualifier success with a 3-0 lead over /v/ by the first half, softened to a 4-2 after some managing changes by /v/. The next match with bant was also a draw, with mostly midfield slog. A breakthrough by /bant/ led to a quick kickoff abuse by MC Ride for a 1-1 result. Due to /v/'s 4-0 thrashing of /w/, /mu/'s advancement rested on not losing by 3 in the next to /w/, with the power of Captain Beefheart, Pierro Scaruffi stepped up to give /mu/ a 2-0 victory before changes by /w/ gave them a concession goal. With this, /mu/ topped the group on 7 points and advanced from an autumn cup for the third straight year. /mu/'s Round of 16 match against /n/ began with some trouble as /n/ dominated the first half, a quick kick off allowed for /mu/ to remain equal until the second half, where /mu/ was able to control and win 3-1 after key interceptions at the end of the match. Moving on the quarter finals against /p/, an early goal by John Lennon gave /mu/ the lead in an otherwise midfield heavy first half, with /p/'s players tiring out, /mu/ were able to score 3 more goals until changes by /p/ at the end were able to give them 2 concession goals for a result similar to the earlier /v/ game. After slaying the unstoppable /trv/, /fa/ were /mu/'s next opponent in the semifinals, and they continued their onslaught with an extremely quick throughball in the 5th minute, and another goal right before the end of the first half, leaving /mu/ with not even a single shot. Some changes were able to keep the team together and a moment of brilliancy from John Lennon equalized the game with a 2 minute brace. Shots began to fly from both sides and mass murder was committed, but nothing was able to enter the net, bringing the game to penalties. Things took a quick nose dive as Pierro Scaruffi, the first player, failed his shot. Later on, two subsequent failures by /fa/ put the fate of the match on Merzbow's shoulder, who with Penalty Specialist, was /mu/'s 5th shooter. In a sign of things to come, he failed the shot, bringing it to sudden death where Viper the Rapper was able to win /mu/ the game with his goal over Meme Shoe. With this, /mu/ entered their first babby final against /o/, and their last final since Winter 2017. Guns blazing, both teams played a tense first half, just failing at the last moment from a bad shot or excellent defending. Things ramped up to 11 as /mu/ began an endless siege of shots, but with 3 kapows and a god tier performance by Black Ice Tree saving every on target shot, none were able to put /mu/ on the board. In one of the most spectacular ways to end a final, a header by Takumi bounced off the crossbar, and off Merzbow's back for an own goal in the 78th minute, giving /o/ the win for champion of the 2020 Autumn Babby Cup. With their 2nd place finish, /mu/ have the 2021 Winter Cup to look forward to.

Rivalries
As an original sixteen team and a champion, it stands to reason that /mu/ has a storied history in the 4chan cup and a host of rivalries to go along with it. These rivalries have been important, recurring, and most of all, loads of fun!
The Ol' War Song The best rivalries develop organically. /mu/-/k/ is the perfect example of this and in many ways the perfect rivalry in the 4chan cup. /mu/’s oldest and fiercest rivals, the /k/ommandos have never failed to meet up with the /mu/tants somewhere along the way whenever both teams have made their way to the same tournament. The first meeting between these two storied sides occurred in the original 2011 Summer Cup, which /mu/ took by a scoreline of 2-1. /k/ however returned fire next Winter, defeating /mu/ in a penalty shootout on their way to hoisting a 4chan cup. Once again, the two sides met the following Summer Cup, which ended in an explosive 3-3 stalemate in the group stages. Meeting again next Winter, we were to see a completely different story. /mu/ would reassert their dominance in style, outgunning the weapons board by seven goals to one, led by captain Jeff Mangum’s then-record 5 goals in a single game, helping send /k/ down to their first-ever babby cup. The two would not meet again until /mu/’s own Championship run in Summer 2014, where the game was decided in /mu/’s favor off a late Talentless Hack goal. Back in Winter, the /k/ommandos look to find /mu/ somewhere on the battlefield so they may tip the scales of this historic rivalry back in their favor, and the /mu/tants not only expect but relish the opportunity to meet the old enemy on the field once more in the best rivalry in the 4chan Cup. /a/ and /sp/ wish they could have a rivalry this great. /mu/ leads this rivalry with 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. |
