Second Founding

Main Article Foundings

The Second Founding marked the first wave of new teams to enter the 4chan Cup. Technically, the four new teams were not expansion clubs, but instead replaced teams relocated due to lack of fan support after the 2011 4chan Summer Cup. The Second Founding teams' first competition was the 2012 4chan Winter Cup. All of the "relocated" teams bar /adv/ (disqualified due to having an incomplete roster) would later be reformed for the 2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup.
