SNC Mini-Scuffle: Power Rankings

1. Grumpy Bears
These future ZGG Gold league participants look strong in every lane, and their new starting mid laner --  Dark Kreutz (Socileo) is taking over for DarthSunTzu --  has already displayed his prowess in last night’s scrim versus Sunset Ravens. From our scouting department, “there are no foreseeable exploits here, and the core three of HilkTV, Natoa, and Nocent seem to have a lot of time put in together.” We’ll see if any of the other SNC teams can put up a challenge against Grumpy Bears, but for now, these are the favorites to take it all!

2. Radiant Twilight
Featuring a support carry in RGE Wildstar that can help his laners get fed — or take over the game himself — Radiant Twilight will have the type of jungle and top pressure that will enable their ADC to scale into late game. Radiant might be the newest SNC IBS team but they’ve been practicing the most lately, so we’ll put them at number two on the power rankings.

3. Sunset Ravens
As one of the best mid laners in the tourney, substitute SNC Mayhem always has solo kill potential. Every other lane here is also super solid, with the bot lane duo of Xandradraeda and whatbotlane already established as having winning synergy. Edit: Scorpio Darkwood will take over support duties for whatbotlane today, so with that unknown X-factor, we’ll slot Sunset Ravens just below Radiant Twilight.

4. Sun Guardians
Working with just two of their regular players — SNC Hades and SNC Titan — the Guardians could find themselves lacking in coordinated team play. ADC sub SNC Cerionna has high carry potential — assuming he doesn’t run it down — and adding super-fill CT Albedo to the jungle will turn that into an area of strength heading into the Scuffle. Sun Guardians are hard to guage on paper, but could have a dark horse chance to take it all.

SNC End 2023 Recap

What an end to our fourth, or fifth split, we can't even recall! In a shocking turn of events, SNC is now an org with championships! 🏆🏆 Two of them in fact! How did this happen?!? I have no idea, but it’s certainly due to the time and effort you all have dedicated to LOL and to each other. “I wouldn’t give up the community of SNC for the world. It’s a really great [and] positive community.” For this split, we had a smaller amount of teams by design. Less mouths to feed, more snacks for all! 🧁 Hopefully that still made it a fun time for everyone and for next split it looks like we’ll grow by a team or two, as post-split, you’ve indicated that you’d like to have more SNCs hanging around. As always, we’re here to serve at SNC. Thank you for a wonder end of 2023 all!
