After struggling to drop the stigma of being a breakaway board from the larger [[/b/]], even the legitimacy of boards existence was in question. While one of the [[Original Sixtee]] competitors in the [[4chan Cup]], the board was for some time one of the weakest sides. Miserable [[2011 4chan Summer Cup|2011 Summer]] and [[2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup|2012 Spring]] campaigns did nothing to raise appeal, but they have been dragged to success under manager {{anonymous|Sexcopter|!!DmLjci16Djv}}'s guidance. The recent [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn Babby Cup]] campaign was by far their most successful yet with vital goals from gold striker Feet. /soc/ are fast earning a reputation for being part of high-scoring games after eight and ten-goal thrillers against [[/gif/]] and [[/vg/]]. If /soc/ can plug the gaps at the back then expect a formidable dark horse in the [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|Winter Cup]].

Featuring a [[/vg/ roster|diverse array of talent]] (does ''your'' team have a double amputee playing center midfield?) /vg/ spent their early days under the guidance of {{anonymous|Trofflesby|!!fPFxZBomxK6}} who led the team to wins against [[/b/]] and [[/tg/]]. The incumbent {{Anonymous|CancerousAnonymous|!!aW26533QJ29}} took charge in late June and continued /vg/'s promising form with another two wins against [[/h/]] and [[/s/]], sending the team into the [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn Babby Cup]] with four wins out of six matches. /vg/ had to prove their worth in the Babby Cup and stake their claim for a shot at the big time. The gold/silver duo of DesWOW and New Thread were integral to their advancement, scoring all but one of their fourteen goals in the tournament. Fourth place was more than enough to see them on their way to the [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|Winter Cup]], with an eyebrow-raising 6-4 quarter final [[2012_4chan_Autumn_Babby_Cup_Knockout_Stage#Quarter-Finals|victory]] against [[/soc/]] being the highlight of their campaign. Victory in the unofficial [[Trip Cup]] cemented their credentials as an able team with much to look forward to come February.

The team took some time in getting into gear with a pair of unceremonious exits from the inaugural [[2011 4chan Summer Cup|Summer]] and [[2012 4chan Winter Cup|Winter]] Cups. /tv/ languished in 24th place in the [[rankings]] prior to last year's [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|Summer Cup]], though he outcome of their campaign was perhaps unfair as they managed a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7wzB-IpXj8 memorable win] against [[/ck/]] but were still relegated to Babby Cup level with three points. Long-serving manager {{anonymous|Director|nclpOLpceA}} was able to turn things around with a formidable nine-match unbeaten run from July to the [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn Babby Cup]] quarter finals, finishing in third place overall. The partnership of Poor Lil' White Guy and Real Human Being became one of the most renowned strike partnerships across the boards, with the duo regularly scoring as a pair and putting defences to shame. With their great run of form, /tv/ secured a Pot 1 berth for the [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|2013 Winter Cup]] by a comfortable margin and will have to prove their worth against [[/wg/]], [[/trv/]] and [[/y/]] in the group stage.

Mecha is a name now synonymous with goals - and lots of them. They are one of the highest-scoring sides, made all the more impressive by a late start. Only rivals [[/sp/]] are ahead on goals scored in official tournaments. The quadrumvirate of attacking medal players sum up /m/'s style. The objective is to get the ball to gold striker Gundam, but this team is a special case. In Alteisen they have one of the Cup's greatest silver players and he isn't goal-shy, scoring seven goals on the run to winning the [[2012 Spring Babby Cup]]. It was all looking rosy for the fledgling side, but a [[/int/|certain unmanaged board]] dashed hopes of a consecutive cup in the [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|Summer]]. A [[2012 4chan Summer Cup knockout stage#Third Place Playoff|thrashing]] of [[/toy/]] to take third place again cemented credentials, but credentials couldn't set up the date with destiny versus /sp/ in the final. Based on past form one would have to say /m/ are favourites to advance to the knockout stage of the Winter Cup, but [[/a/]] have already humbled them once before and the group's other two sides are very much unknown quantities. It's up to manager {{Anonymous|GoldTiger|!!IdTmTK73Akq}} to navigate [[2013 4chan Winter Cup Group H|Group Hell]] and set a course for success once again.

Unfortunately for /po/, they were the recipients of a true baptism of fire, conceding the {{tt|then-fastest|1:38}} goal in 4chan Cup history - a gift sent direct from the boot of [[Rigged_Wiki:Players_of_the_Week#Wednesday_2nd_January.2C_2013|Spacebat]]. They lost the [[2012_4chan_Spring_Babby_Cup#Preliminary_Round|two-legged match]] 6-3 on aggregate and played no further part in the competition.

Sadly the match has come to be remembered [[Wardrobe Malfunction|for all the wrong reasons.]] Star players for /po/ include the razor sharp X-Acto and the gracefully gliding Paper Plane, their top scorer to date. /po/ is one of the slowest boards on 4chan, and support is on the thin side, when present at all. The worthiness of the team as an official competitor has even been brought into question. Nonetheless, this is a team with has a respectable record, new management, and visions of breaking the glass Babby ceiling come [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring]].

As such they would not compete at a tournament until the [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn]]. On the plus side this meant plenty of practice, and /ic/ developed a respectable record in friendlies in that time. They defeated the likes of [[/f/]], [[/diy/]], [[/vp/]] and [[/hr/]] while pushing [[/a/]] and [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|Summer Cup]] finalists [[/int/]] very close. It was in this time that /ic/ formed a reputation for always winning by a single goal; whether in friendlies or tests, the same scorelines kept manifesting themselves. Unfortunately Autumn was by no means a close-run affair, and the side suffered [[2012_4chan_Autumn_Babby_Cup_Group_E#.2Fv.2F_vs_.2Fic.2F|4-0]] and [[2012_4chan_Autumn_Babby_Cup_Group_E#.2Fg.2F_vs_.2Fic.2F|6-0]] hammerings at the hands of [[/v/]] and [[/g/]] respectively. The latter of the two was put down to /ic/'s defensive line being severely hampered by poor conditioning. They would not go winless however, managing to beat eventual promotees [[/h/]] by nothing other than the familiar single goal margin. Gold player Main Dude is the side's top scorer, netting seven in seven in friendly matches. Other medal players include the talismanic Loomis, Baseball, and outspoken midfielder Your Art Is Shit. The [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|2013 Spring Babby Cup]] is /ic/'s next major competition, but not before their preparation [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup Friendlies|friendlies]] versus [[/co/]] and [[/tg/]], both of which should provide a stern test.

They fared well once again in the [[2012 Winter Cup]] but were knocked out of the losers bracket final by [[/sp/]]. Nachos quickly laid claim to being one of the [[4chan Cup]]'s star players, scoring the many of his team's goals in those early days. Following an uninspiring couple of friendly seasons, /ck/'s next tournament outing was much less successful. The side failed to advance beyond the group stage and narrowly escaped relegation to the Babby Cup. One positive to draw from the Summer season was the establishment of Masaokis and Pink Himalayan Salt as regular goalscorers. {{anonymous|Tunamerchant|!!+U8b1gCk0rk}} arrived on the scene towards the end of 2012 and made a number of squad changes, namely dropping bronze player Fridge Ketchup for Perfect Coffee. By the team's own high standards of the past, the [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|2013 Winter Cup]] was a miserable performance with a series of heavy losses, topped off by a crushing 7-2 defeat at the hands of [[/hm/]]. The Spring has brought further, extensive squad overhaul and things may be looking up after two strong performances against [[/vg/]] and [[/v/]] in recent [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup Friendlies|friendlies]]. Momentum will be the key for a team looking to rebuild and rediscover past success. Their first challenge is to return to the top tier this [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring]].

The excellent goalkeeping performances of {{tt|The Burdened|he carries their sins and defends their goal}} and {{tt|Derpy Hooves|SAFEST HOOVES}} kept /mlp/ in the hunt when opponents exerted their own pressure.

Coming into the tournament, it had been 3 years since /i/ had won a game in an official 4cc match. In their previous 18 matches, they had 0 wins, 4 draws, and 14 losses, permanently stuck in the Babby Cup or Qualifiers during this span. The goal for /i/ was clear, just win a goddamn game.


{| width="100%" style="background: transparent;"
The small yet loyal fanbase had watched the team for many years, and were eager to see how the team would function with the new PES version, hoping it could spur some ideas for the /i/ team to finally win that game. In the third match of group stages against [[:/m/]], it finally happened. In a glorious 1-0 victory with a goal by SS GF, /i/ won their first match in 3 years. Bel/i/evers everywhere were ecstatic as the team also clinched a spot in the knockout round as well as the [[:2019 4chan Summer Cup|2019 Summer Cup]], the first elite cup that /i/ will participate in in 4 years.

They may win and they may lose, but the only thing that's certain is at the end of the day some other team's shit will get trolled once /b/ walks on the field. They are one of the [[Original Sixteen]] teams, though early on shown poor to mediocre performances which have left them stuck in the Babby Cups, but not without doing some trolling along the way. /b/ has been able to upset traditionally powerhouse teams such as [[/a/]], [[/sp/]], and [[/v/]], demonstrating that playing against /b/ doesn't automatically mean an easy win. Manager Cosa Nostra would go on an extended hiatus after the 2012 Autumn Cup, and in the meanwhile /b/ more than any other team would prove the mantra of the [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring Babby Cup]] that 2013 was dead teams' year. The then-managerless /b/ would put their trolling into overdrive in [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Group G]], winning two out of three of the group stage games, surviving relegation, and crushing the dreams of [[/co/]] and [[/c/]] in the process. {{anonymous|Cosa Nostra}} returned at this point, only to be halted in the first knockout game against [[/soc/]].

However, /i/ weren't done yet. Their desire to win wasn't satisfied just yet. The sketches got their pencils out and were ready to make quick work of the knockouts.
Securing a win over [[:/diy/]] on a 120' goal from SS GF had any previous fans instantly converted to bel/i/evers, as /i/ drew up a play that was sure to get them to penalties, which they would end up winning as each /i/ player converted successfully.


{| width="100%" style="background: transparent;"
After a win over [[:/h/]] in the quarterfinals, /i/ pulled off another miracle win over [[:/jp/]] in the semis with a goal by Taking Requests at 90+1' to force eggsdra diem which would lead to another trip to Benuldy's Pub, winning again with all players converting their shots.

Though that prize escaped them, and it would seem /wg/ vowed revenge for [[2013 4chan Summer Cup|Summer 2013]]. With hopes as high as their expectations, they began their cup run by topping [[2013 4chan Summer Cup Group C|Group C]] with [[/soc/]] presenting the most viable threat with a 3-3 draw. Careful, meticulous managing would be /wg/'s penultimate asset as one by one they toppled their opponents on the road to the cup. Their greatest weapon, however, came in the form of AMF Headphone Girl and star CF Cunt Destroyer. This duo cut through defenses like a scalpel, scoring 14 goals throughout the cup between the two of them. Honorable mentions also go to Spacecat, Descartes, and finally goalkeeper Dolla Dolla Bill Yall who saved /wg/ from [[/mu/]]'s vicious assault, including the final /mu/ score attempt in overtime, preventing the championship game from going into penalty kicks. Congratulations are in order to /wg/ for being the first team to win both a babby and major cup, but their story is far from over. There are over 50 other teams in the [[4chan Cup]] looking to replace them at the top. Is /wg/ up to the challenge of defending their title? Good luck, and never be afraid to drop it.

By this time, everyone knew it was their turn. In the [[:2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup Final|Finals]] against [[:/c/]], /i/rene had woken up from her sleep to score a hat-trick when it mattered most. Fans across the 4cc were cheering her and /i/ on when the oh so familiar goal horn would play again and again, "Come On /i/rene!".


{| width="100%" style="background: transparent;"
/i/ would win the [[:2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup|2019 Spring Babby Cup]] in what was a new turn for the 4cc. It had been a while since a team as unique as /i/ and their story had pulled off something so great and enjoyable for fans everywhere to watch. Watch out for them this summer as /i/ try to draw up a new strategy now that they are on the radar again, here's to hoping they don't get erased and become a one draft wonder. Whatever happens, just know that we bel/i/eve.

Despite this handicap, they were still able to defeat [[/mlp/]] and {{greentext|>autumn /s/}} during the cup proper. {{anonymous|Tr4pD00r}} would take over the team for the [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn Babby Cup]]. Through circumstances which were as questionable as they were fortunate, /r9k/ dominated [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup Group H|Group H]], and continued in the knockout rounds by slapping down [[/cm/]], [[/adv/]] (in penalty kicks), and finally [[/tv/]].

Through [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|Winter]] and the following Spring the team would go through failed managers or be managerless and lose game upon game until the streak counted to 10 losses. It became so bad that in [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring]] a passionate Saudi /r9k/ fan offered to pay real-life cash for someone to take the reins.

===November===
Flashback to the [[2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup Qualifiers|2019 Spring Babby Cup Qualifiers]]: /cm/ is in Pot 3; an absolute unknown, and "just an autopilot" -- one that hasn't seen any success since [[Dragongate]]. But after drawing their first match, /cm/ then cutely devastated the competition, finishing with a +7 goal differential and a teal and purple ticket to the [[2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup|2019 Spring Babby Cup]].<br />


{| width="100%" style="background: transparent;"
So as the cup began, all eyes were on /cm/, many expecting Len-kun!!! and Nagisa to carry the team through on another powerfully cute run; the power duo did exactly that. In [[2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup Group F|three matches]], the pair scored all 7 goals for /cm/, including 4 in a win-or-go-home match against [[:/mu/]]. While the two would once again fetchingly carry them through the [[2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup knockout stage|Round of 16]] against [[:/x/]], /cm/ would be shocked in the quarterfinals at Benuldy’s Pub when a penalty kick by Nagisa was denied by Captain Meido. Among this and reports that Nagisa had drunkenly yelled “Shinji is a bitch-ass motherfucker”, /cm/ missed out on Babby glory, but qualified for their first Elite Cup in [[2018 4chan Winter Cup|almost two years]]. But this team of heart-melting boys would be up against stiff competition, as their first match was against defending champions and aesthetic debonairs [[:/gd/]] -- or so the 4CC thought -- as /cm/ would make quick work of them in a charming 3-1 win, making a statement to the 4CC that this team was not going away. However, after a shock draw to /x/ and a loss to [[:/wg/]], some viewers began to believe there was a chink in /cm/'s cute-yet-strong armor.<br />

They have secured their way into the knockout rounds in the 2012 Winter Cup, the [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|following Summer Cup]], and the [[2013 Winter cup]] as well, securing themselves at the time “neuvo elite” status. Hopes were high for /tg/ for the next summer after claiming first in the unofficial [[Tottoric Up]], but then a turn of events happened which seemed as unthinkable as they were heartbreaking; /tg/ underperformed in the group stages, walking away with two draws and a loss. The two meager points meant they were finally booted them off from their elite throne, as well as into the [[2013 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn Babbies]].

Then, in a finish for the ages, /cm/ were paired against [[:/diy/]] in the [[2019 4chan Summer Cup knockout stage|Round of 16]], where hope looked lost after an 82’ go-ahead goal by /diy/, except that Nagisa was not quite ready to let go. Scoring at 85’ to dab on the /diy/nosaurs, /cm/ ultimately advanced when their fellow autopilot overheated and committed an own goal; possibly the cutest spaghetti end to a game the Elites have seen in quite a while. The very next day, /cm/ then went on a destructive run unmatched in 4chan Cup history: across the span of the quarters, semis, and the final, they went on to win the cup with a total aggregate score of ''11-1''. With 12 goals across the entire cup, 9 alone in the final 2 matches, Kaworu went on to take the Boot from under Summer's noses, with Len-kun!!! taking the Ball as his cute second. <br />


{| width="100%" style="background: transparent;"
Proving that you can be cute, ''and'' a boy, and yet a monster on the pitch, it is thanks to Kaworu and the rest of the boys that /cm/ are now undeniably the best, with a star to prove it.<br />

Founding-and-current manager {{anonymous|MauledByTheTigers}} earned a reputation early on as one more interested in making kits than managing, reinforced by the fact that he reportedly didn't have a copy of ''PES''. Despite this /trv/ would earn another reputation as lucky after advancing from the [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|2012 Autumn Babby Cup]], though that luck would not hold in [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|Winter]]. In the [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|following Spring Babby]] /trv/ made two astounding comebacks against [[/hr/]] and then [[/ic/]] earning them a new reputation as comeback kings, one which still remains to this day. From that point on the improvement in /trv/'s game was steady and noticeable. Sex Tourist, Superpornowat Farangbang, and Couchsurfer Rapist joined the ranks of the Cup's memorable strikers as /trv/ secured a quarter-final finish in [[2013 4chan Summer Cup|Summer 2013]]. Now /trv/ swept past the [[2014 4chan Winter Cup|2014 Winter Cup]] with one draw and six wins and has earned itself the most prestigious of reputations: they are now the best. In the future it will be their job to try and defend their new title, but for now, /trv/ has earned a restful and relaxing vacation. See you [[2014 4chan Summer Cup|next Summer]].

By now names like 5inchdick and S/adv/irgin are recognized by nearly all Cup spectators because of their long road traveled. They were slow to find their footing early on, ranking 8th in the inaugural [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|2012 Summer Cup]] and failing to qualify for the first [[2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring Babby]]. Things changed by [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn 2012]] with progression to the Round of 16, and improved further in the [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|2013 Winter Cup]]. It was there that /adv/ were grouped in the famous [[2013 4chan Winter Cup Group H|Group Hell]]. After hard-fought but bitter losses to [[/a/]] and [[/mlp/]], /adv/ were considered dead-on-arrival in their third game against [[/m/]]. What happened next, to many, was the most celebrated upset not only in team history, but in all of 4chan Cup history. [[2013_4chan_Winter_Cup_Group_H#.2Fadv.2F_vs_.2Fm.2F|/adv/ humiliated /m/]] with a 6-1 blowout, confounding absolutely everyone present, relegating /m/ and /mlp/, and themselves surviving all the way to the Quarter Finals. Since then, /adv/ has been a quintessential yo-yo team, being relegated and then promoted from every cup thereafter. [[2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup|This Spring]] /adv/ is pitted against a slew of classic foes in [[2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup Group E|Group E]], and as it stands currently the only ones they'll help is themselves to another shot at an Elite cup.

The Reich would demonstrate their wrath early on against [[/mlp/]] with a 4-2 win against horsefucker scum. Success would continue for /pol/ as they reached the knockout rounds for the both the Spring Babby Cup, and the following summer. Then in [[2013 4chan Winter Cup|Winter 2013]] /pol/ demonstrated that while its right hand is always closed in vengeance, its left is open with compassion, where the glorious leaders of /pol/ [[2013_4chan_Winter_Cup_knockout_stage#.2Fpol.2F_v_.2Fsp.2F|allowed /sp/ to beat them]] in the Quarter Finals just so /pol/ could [[2013_4chan_Winter_Cup_knockout_stage#Third_Place_Match|remove /cm/'s degeneracy]] in the 3rd place match. But much like the Blitzkrieg, /pol/ would be quick out the gate but fade in the stretch in [[2013 4chan Summer Cup|Summer 2013]] when Jew saboteurs systematically clubbed the kneecaps of /pol/'s starting line, as well as paid off the refs, so [[2013_4chan_Summer_Cup_Group_H|/pol/ saw its first relegation]] into the Babbies.

Victory was assured the next winter until Grand Leader Rowan <code>[THIS SECTION IS REDACTED]</code>. Now [[2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup|this Spring]], /pol/ had no room for compassion in their battle-plan. They heeded no advice, burned all the books, shredded their paper trail, and ousted lewdness all by themselves, and looked damn good while doing it. Congratulations /pol/.

Since then, for better or worse, they have spooked their way all throughout the [[4chan Cup]]. Their early performances were generally above average, including a semi-final finish in [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|Summer 2012]]. [[Dragongate]] would demonstrate that cheating was the first way to decisively beat /x/, relegating them to their first Babby Cup for [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring 2013]]. At that point /x/ received a major overhaul to their roster, beaming aboard strikers such as [[Rigged_Wiki:Players_of_the_week/2013#Wednesday_22nd_-_Pyramid_Head|Pyramid Head]] and /x/-tan, some of the most familiar and feared faces of the Cup. This new blood, (some of it even their own!) brought them an incredible 4th place finish. For the next cup, /x/ was without a manager, but death only served to make them stronger with a [[2013_4chan_Summer_Cup_Group_A#.2Fx.2F_v_.2Fc.2F|win over /c/]] and [[2013_4chan_Summer_Cup_Group_A#.2Ftoy.2F_v_.2Fx.2F|tie with /toy/]] which brought them to the [[2013_4chan_Summer_Cup_knockout_stage#.2Fa.2F_v_.2Fx.2F|round of sixteen versus /a/]]. With a Mugi slow roller, Bert's triple spaghetti, and the Tomogoal, they firmly established the second way to beat /x/ is to be so silly that shit can't get spooky; further demonstrated by [[/mlp/]] [[2014_4chan_Winter_Cup_knockout_stage#.2Fx.2F_v_.2Fmlp.2F|forcing spaghetti down Pyramid Head's shorts]] at the same stage in [[2014 4chan Winter Cup|Winter 2014]].

Putin saw that the divegrass was good. Thus is the the genesis of '''/int/'''. An [[Original Sixteen|original team]] of the [[4chan Cup]], /int/'s story is that of roller-coastering success, but constant hope. They would be slow to find their footing with only three of their first 12 games resulting in wins, but would suddenly rocket to success as runners-up of the [[2012 4chan Summer Cup|2012 Summer Cup]]. Team captain Putin was so pleased with this outcome, he ordered that the rest of team would NOT be sent to the gulag and be given a whole half portion of rations. (They received a quarter portion.) Two more strong knockout finishes would follow for the next two major cups, but Putin's starvation diet would be /int/'s undoing with the coming of the [[2014 4chan Winter Cup|Winter 2014]] season. With a loss of all games in the group stage, /int/ saw their first relegation and would be among the first of the long-time [[Elite]] teams to lose such status. Humbled once more in [[2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring]] by failing to advance to Summer, the team has been soul-searching for what truly matters. The answer is obvious: to beat arch rivals [[Rigged_Wiki:Featured_teams#May_2|/pol/]] in their own hosted cup and to return to the Major cups where /int/ belongs. Fresh management hopes to do just that, and asks its fans to bring the hype while /int/ brings the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXpj3x2oLho dope Serbian beats].
| width="80%" align="justify" style="font-size: 90%;" | In [[:2019 4chan Summer Cup|Summer]], little [[:/cm/]] took the cup by storm. The [[:2019 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring]] before that, [[:/i/]] went on the underdog run to dwarf any before it. If there was any doubt before, you can be sure now -- 2019 is the Year of the Small Market.
But before them -- once, there was a small team. Smooth, and inoffensive, it became the basis of a revolution — and few other boards could be better suited to start a trend than the innovative '''/gd/'''.
Even before they truly made a mark in Cup history, it was — {{tt|intentionally or unintentionally|a now-banned former /gd/ manager was accused of throwing /gd/'s 2014 Winter Cup matches for better Rankings placement}} — thanks to /gd/ that the Cup adopted its current seeding format. However, what truly put /gd/ on the map was the [[:2014 4chan Summer Cup Group A#/sp/ v /gd|now-legendary upset]] of Cup stalwart [[:/sp/]] — an achievement that kicked off the story of the little team that could. Following another [[:2015 4chan Summer Cup Group C#/gd/ v /s4s/|miraculous escape]] the following year, they soon became a near-permanent fixture of the Elites, and a common sight on the final day of any Cup they appeared in. Yet, for all their sleek aesthetics and masterclass tactics, /gd/ seemed unable to ever reach beyond the quarterfinals — until, [[:2019 4chan Winter Cup|one Winter]], a cunning little cat made a wish upon a genie... a wish that led to a star, and, as luck would have it, an honest-to-goodness logo redesign.
But as their fellow [[:/u/|Elite colleague]] had learned [[:2018 4chan Summer Cup|the year before]]... every wish has a price. Though /gd/ now faces [[:2019 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|Autumn]] with their reputation on the line, expectations will be high, because as their history shows: it doesn't matter if your team is small — all you need is the drive to make it bigger.

These communities were quick to form teams in hopes of playing in the [[4chan Cup]] and would collectively be called the Provisionals, now known as the [[Fifth Founding]] teams. But amongst these new faces one classic, established board decided to join as well: the girls of '''/e/cchi'''. Now that the total number of 4CC teams totaled more than 48, /e/ and the rest of the provisionals would spar against each other in a qualifier round just to get into the [[2013 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|2013 Autumn Babby]]. With a win and two draws, /e/ scraped by into the eighth and final spot, but quickly gaining a fanbase with their spunky play and a popular goalhorn. Though they failed to advance further in the group stage, /e/ established themselves as a high hurdle for any team. While all eyes were the fiery wreck of /m/ for [[2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup|Spring 2014]]'s [[2014 4chan Spring Babby Cup Group A|Group A]], /e/ finally emerged victorious to see their first knockout rounds and elite cup. Once again /e/ were an afterthought during the Summer of Fallen Giants, especially for scoring zero goals in the infamous [[2014 4chan Summer Cup Group C|Group ZZZ]]. Finally, [[2014 4chan Autumn Babby Cup|this Autumn]], /e/ were ready to dress down and play for keeps. Squeaking by the group stage, it seemed /e/ would bow out in the round of sixteen as /e/'s management was absent. But then /e/ found their groovin' magic as they heaved their chest all the way to the championship match. Though [[2014 4chan Autumn Babby Cup Final|/b/ trolled /e/]] out of the Babby trophy, /e/'s performance is something to be proud of. In the future, /e/ must consider their history of mixed success and also the 2nd Place Babby curse, but perhaps the stars will continue to favor /e/ as they play their way towards another trophy [[2015 4chan Winter Cup|this Winter]].

Ranking: 30th
Key Players: /i/rene Captain, SS GF, Bait-Chan, Beardanon, Reibear
Recent Form: W W W W W
It's only /i/, they said.

Coming into the tournament, it had been 3 years since /i/ had won a game in an official 4cc match. In their previous 18 matches, they had 0 wins, 4 draws, and 14 losses, permanently stuck in the Babby Cup or Qualifiers during this span. The goal for /i/ was clear, just win a goddamn game.

The small yet loyal fanbase had watched the team for many years, and were eager to see how the team would function with the new PES version, hoping it could spur some ideas for the /i/ team to finally win that game. In the third match of group stages against /m/, it finally happened. In a glorious 1-0 victory with a goal by SS GF, /i/ won their first match in 3 years. Bel/i/evers everywhere were ecstatic as the team also clinched a spot in the knockout round as well as the 2019 Summer Cup, the first elite cup that /i/ will participate in in 4 years.

However, /i/ weren't done yet. Their desire to win wasn't satisfied just yet. The sketches got their pencils out and were ready to make quick work of the knockouts. Securing a win over /diy/ on a 120' goal from SS GF had any previous fans instantly converted to bel/i/evers, as /i/ drew up a play that was sure to get them to penalties, which they would end up winning as each /i/ player converted successfully.

After a win over /h/ in the quarterfinals, /i/ pulled off another miracle win over /jp/ in the semis with a goal by Taking Requests at 90+1' to force eggsdra diem which would lead to another trip to Benuldy's Pub, winning again with all players converting their shots.

By this time, everyone knew it was their turn. In the Finals against /c/, /i/rene had woken up from her sleep to score a hat-trick when it mattered most. Fans across the 4cc were cheering her and /i/ on when the oh so familiar goal horn would play again and again, "Come On /i/rene!".

/i/ would win the 2019 Spring Babby Cup in what was a new turn for the 4cc. It had been a while since a team as unique as /i/ and their story had pulled off something so great and enjoyable for fans everywhere to watch. Watch out for them this summer as /i/ try to draw up a new strategy now that they are on the radar again, here's to hoping they don't get erased and become a one draft wonder. Whatever happens, just know that we bel/i/eve.

What a ride it has been for /cm/.

Flashback to the 2019 Spring Babby Cup Qualifiers: /cm/ is in Pot 3; an absolute unknown, and "just an autopilot" -- one that hasn't seen any success since Dragongate. But after drawing their first match, /cm/ then cutely devastated the competition, finishing with a +7 goal differential and a teal and purple ticket to the 2019 Spring Babby Cup.

So as the cup began, all eyes were on /cm/, many expecting Len-kun!!! and Nagisa to carry the team through on another powerfully cute run; the power duo did exactly that. In three matches, the pair scored all 7 goals for /cm/, including 4 in a win-or-go-home match against /mu/. While the two would once again fetchingly carry them through the Round of 16 against /x/, /cm/ would be shocked in the quarterfinals at Benuldy’s Pub when a penalty kick by Nagisa was denied by Captain Meido. Among this and reports that Nagisa had drunkenly yelled “Shinji is a bitch-ass motherfucker”, /cm/ missed out on Babby glory, but qualified for their first Elite Cup in almost two years. But this team of heart-melting boys would be up against stiff competition, as their first match was against defending champions and aesthetic debonairs /gd/ -- or so the 4CC thought -- as /cm/ would make quick work of them in a charming 3-1 win, making a statement to the 4CC that this team was not going away. However, after a shock draw to /x/ and a loss to /wg/, some viewers began to believe there was a chink in /cm/'s cute-yet-strong armor.

Then, in a finish for the ages, /cm/ were paired against /diy/ in the Round of 16, where hope looked lost after an 82’ go-ahead goal by /diy/, except that Nagisa was not quite ready to let go. Scoring at 85’ to dab on the /diy/nosaurs, /cm/ ultimately advanced when their fellow autopilot overheated and committed an own goal; possibly the cutest spaghetti end to a game the Elites have seen in quite a while. The very next day, /cm/ then went on a destructive run unmatched in 4chan Cup history: across the span of the quarters, semis, and the final, they went on to win the cup with a total aggregate score of 11-1. With 12 goals across the entire cup, 9 alone in the final 2 matches, Kaworu went on to take the Boot from under Summer's noses, with Len-kun!!! taking the Ball as his cute second.

Proving that you can be cute, and a boy, and yet a monster on the pitch, it is thanks to Kaworu and the rest of the boys that /cm/ are now undeniably the best, with a star to prove it.

And who knows? Maybe when they fly to the moon next Winter, they can make it back-to-back as they play among the stars.

In Summer, little /cm/ took the cup by storm. The Spring before that, /i/ went on the underdog run to dwarf any before it. If there was any doubt before, you can be sure now -- 2019 is the Year of the Small Market.

But before them -- once, there was a small team. Smooth, and inoffensive, it became the basis of a revolution — and few other boards could be better suited to start a trend than the innovative /gd/.

Even before they truly made a mark in Cup history, it was — intentionally or unintentionally — thanks to /gd/ that the Cup adopted its current seeding format. However, what truly put /gd/ on the map was the now-legendary upset of Cup stalwart /sp/ — an achievement that kicked off the story of the little team that could. Following another miraculous escape the following year, they soon became a near-permanent fixture of the Elites, and a common sight on the final day of any Cup they appeared in. Yet, for all their sleek aesthetics and masterclass tactics, /gd/ seemed unable to ever reach beyond the quarterfinals — until, one Winter, a cunning little cat made a wish upon a genie... a wish that led to a star, and, as luck would have it, an honest-to-goodness logo redesign.

But as their fellow Elite colleague had learned the year before... every wish has a price. Though /gd/ now faces Autumn with their reputation on the line, expectations will be high, because as their history shows: it doesn't matter if your team is small — all you need is the drive to make it bigger.
