In the setting, each round have around 7 to 11 games, and 3* 1vs1, 2* 1v1 or even 2v2 is among one or two of 7 or 11, so if losing in this game is not important because it just about 2/7 or 2/11, so minimal/small. Most of these games are team game 4v3 or 4v4.well, because of the 3*1v1 and 3*2v2, I think RVK will do much better this time as they have dogao and chris.
That's TFT, which is one of the most voted team above 8-)How about team of Slam,Goku and noob Fire? They are all good in TG, maybe 2k2+.
11where are the votings for 2nd and 4th place
In the scale of 10 points
"JUST MY Point of view"
Tyrant 9 [ ABSOLUTELY if their team in good shape ]
RVK 8.75 CKF 8.5
VNS A 8.25 TKF 8.25
SY 8 LoS 8 POJ 8 POZ 8
and the others....
Of course, Although RiuT is awsome, but he can not lead his team to the final win.[wait and see]
RVK can have a chane to obtain the second place, but if they vs CKF, I think CKF will win, because in The Tribal Wars 2012, RVK just won one game ).
VNS A vsTKF to get the third place. [depending on their strategy to decide who will win]
