imo i really liked the G2 crews ruleset, although i guess it would add slightly more time.

Kings of Cali: NORCAL v SOCAL 8v8 predictions

Personally, I think it should be completely character-locked even with the incoming player having the privilege of picking a stage. It encourages a more evenly-fought crew battle overall and it showcases top players' abilities to tough it out with their best character no matter the matchup.

So Norcal's going to FD every time then?

Yes because SoCal is obviously better enough that I don't really need to know the details of his skill level. I can generally assume he's pretty good, since he is being placed as a starter before stab and MacD.

OK after thinking it over and discussing it with a few people, it turns out the ruleset was up for discussion lol. Here's the new (and final) consensus:
Alan and Wes stage strike from the 5 neutrals
Losing team picks a player to go in
Winning player bans a stage (among the 6 legal stages)
New player picks a stage
Character lock. No switching characters whatsoever
I think this makes leads less devastating; with the previous system I fear we'd have too much FD and Stadium. Now, its a little more even, plus with the character lock, the incoming player still has advantage.

Good work. This is gonna be insane. When's the last time there was a super hype NorCal vs SoCal crew battle?

I approve. Five of Norcal's characters being able to chain grab spacies on fd would have made for a pretty lame crew battle.

Wow what a blast from the past. Omar and Trevyn definitely styling.

I'll bet the spread on NorCal for $10, anyone down to match? According to Tafo, SoCal is a 2.5 stock favorite, so that basically means I'll pay you $10 if SoCal wins by 3 stocks or more, and you'd pay me $10 if SoCal wins by 2 stocks or fewer OR if NorCal wins outright.

My random predictions about this crew battle:
Wes wins with one stock left against Alan.
Fly enters late and takes 8 stocks.
Zhu is taken out by Mango, and Mango is taken out by PPU.
Socal wins by 4 stocks or more.
I'm really hyped for this, I hope I'll be able to see it live!

Guys guys
Bet against the LINE. Lets be pros about this
I like Tafo's projection. Line is at Socal by 2.5. Who's got the over, who's got the under?

people are betting straight up because that's where the money is
no one's backing socal by 3 stock because we don't feel comfortable putting our money there, esp. when there are people willing to do the more reasonable socal/norcal straight up
obviously there are people who think norcal can probably do it straight up
so we're betting on that
