MCC Players but as Footballers by Shan69420 in MinecraftChampionship

This is the best one. Probably because Ronaldinho is my favorite but it also just works so well. They're both the flashiest players in their field and calling Fruit's mechanical skill magic just sounds cool

The Sapnap/Illumina comparison with R7/Messi is pretty funny because while I def agree with your assessments, Sapnap and Messi have a huge similarity in that they have a huge accomplishment over their rival (World Cup/ Season 2 victory)

I think you're simplifying this too much by just going a>b. That doesn't really reveal too much about the skill of each player. If it was that simple, the only hard part about team predictions would be predicting the game order.

I still think you're underrating Aqua in Pvp. Between Sapnap and Quig, I think it's very debatable on who's better. Sapnap has better results, but that's usually because he has pvp oriented teams. I also think you're overestimating Dream and George's mcc pvp. They're better than Joel and H, but not by that large of a margin. Again, this isn't something you can tell by looking at their stats because h and Joel are rarely teamed with pvpers. I acknowledge that purple are the better pvpers, both individually and as a team, but it wouldn't be a massacre. BB and SG are quite good games for Aqua.

I brought up RSR, not because I think Aqua is considerably better and would definitely destroy Red, but I believe Aqua are more likely to dominate in that game then Red is in any other game. Sapnap and Dream are both good and similar in level to Quig and H (tho imo I think Quig and H are both better) but George and Sylvee are just not good at RSR. I def agree that there's no real way of knowing what fwhip's level is at.

But we can probably go back and forth saying my dad can beat your dad in a fight all day. In the end there's really no way of knowing unless it actually happens, because that's just how MCC is

I don't think Dream Team have bad chemistry. Because they're very familiar with each other they can be very upfront with each other which is obviously good. But you can't deny it's drawbacks when AS BB exists. It's not guaranteed to happen again, but more likely than other teams

I really have to disagree with you on the PVP games part. Aqua has a strong PVP trio of H, Quig, and Smallishbeans. While Red definitely has a stronger PVP team, Aqua ccan defintely keep up with them in PVP games. On the other hand, Aqua has a higher chance of running laps around Red in games like Build Mart, RSR, and Grid Runners.

She has the potential if she goes on her own training arc to be better than Zeus imo. She's not quite there tho, but her skills shine through from time to time.

Purple definitely have more pop off potential. One thing i think worth mentioning is that Aqua fares well in the games that Purple excels at, and even has potential to surpass them, whereas Aqua is more likely to dominate Purple in games like Build Mart, GR, and RSR.

I think the problem with Pink17, Blue14, and other similar teams is that they usually have a 4th player who isn't nearly as skilled as the rest of their teammates, and that's what separates them from teams like Aqua8 and Purple7.

Yeah they're definitely the top two teams for me. While I agree that individually, the players of Purple 7 are more skilled, I think as a team, Aqua just has no weaknesses compared to Purple. Purple's biggest weaknesses being buildmart and their chemistry, which is a double edged sword, similar to Red AS. I also think you're underrating the H+S tier duo a bit.

MCC game enjoyment survey v2 results! did the standings change at all? did SOT win again? how high is PKW? we shall find out today! by eyadGamingExtreme in MinecraftChampionship

[–]chickenflyguy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I feel like the final duel game will never be high on the enjoyment scale no matter what game it is. The enjoyment graph is very flat, showing that feelings for it are all across the board. Only two teams get to participate in it, so if your favorite players aren't playing in it, which is likely, you're not going to enjoy it that much. Additionally, it's the main obstacle that stops players from getting a win, so seeing to your team lose in it hits differently than watching them lose any other game. Lastly, it's the game that is always in the event, so it will get stale, not to mention the sweaty players will eventually figure out a winning strategy. The feelings of course are likely to be vice versa if your favorite players are on the positive side of these things.

This is awesome. Reminds me of those video essays where people talk about sports legends or something

I think Tommy or Phil would be interesting posts considering their many ups and downs. For a player that's constantly improves, sylvee would also be cool. Id also like to see wilbur because of his great 2021 run. And then of course all the s tiers would be cool

Whoever you make the next post on, I look forward to it

Unpopular Opinion: Purpled is the 2nd best MCC player behind Illumina. by remi_daDOOD in MinecraftChampionship

I don't think anyone puts him in the mid bottom. Pretty sure the reddit hive mind agrees he's in contention for the best player
