GREETINGS /animu/

The Infinity Cup is returning once again, and 8chan's boards will be fighting it out on the pitch to claim divegrass supremacy. As a board that has participated in the Cup at one point or another in its history, you are invited to the reveal stream for 2019 Summer edition of the Cup. On Saturday June 22nd, at 3 PM EDT/7 PM UTC, on cytu.be/r/8cup I'll be giving you guys an early look at the Cup's 5th edition, which will include revamped aesthetics, team stadiums and other quality of life improvements I've figured out how to do in PES 17. Hopefully this will get anons back on board with the Cup, considering it has struggled mightily since its 2nd incarnation.

So how is it going to go down? I'll be staging a couple of exhibition matches between teams using their rosters from the last Cup, and we'll shitpost our merry way through the stream. Once the stream ends, entries will be open for the Cup, and boards can start putting together/editing their rosters and kits. Entries will close in early July, the field will be determined, and the Group Draw will take place approximately a week before the Cup kicks off in August. I'm also hoping to possibly introduce managers for the Cup, although I'm still working out the details to keep this from devolving into a namefag dick measuring contest. I hope you all will tune in, and in case you aren't caught up on your board's history, I've provided some links below to get you caught up:

Positions remain the same as before I'm assuming? Visual Novel seems to be new so what's it's position? Also, there's only 1 gold 1 silver and 2 bronze medal players per team, so those bench players you noted will not be medalled (unless you want to run a starting lineup without a couple medals, which would be an absolute madman strategy)

You will need three kits at least this time around. If you're fine with just using the white/pink one as your away kit this Cup, then you're set, but if not, slap together an away kit for the squad.

This pink kit still is part of the team.

We are reusing all the 3 kits from last game, but want to use the blue one more often since they weren't used last season.

Wouldn't it make sense to keep blue as away and pink as home if you want to see blue more often?

Then again, all 3 kits were registered last season and blue was never used in any of /animu/'s games despite being an away uniform.

It'll depend on how the group stage stacks up. Some teams will be 2 "home" games 1 "away" and some will be 1 "home" and 2 "away". Past the group stage it'll be open season. I put those in quotes because there's no home turf advantage in the game mode I'll be using

The entries for the Infinity Cup are now closed. 24 teams total submitted the required base elements to be a valid entrant. While not the 32 I envisioned, 24 is still a viable number to host a tournament. The full list of 24 teams can be found at >>>/8cup/3322. A stream will be held at https://cytu.be/r/8cup , on August 4th in order to determine the Group Stage of the tournament. As one of the 24 boards participating, you will need to cobble together enough autism to complete the entry and fully personalize your team. What I need from your board is as follows:

Player Heights (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Rules#Player_Builds.2FAbilities)

Player Cards (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Player_Cards)

Team Strategy (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Team_Strategies)

Feel free to post the final pieces in here or in your thread on >>>/8cup/. A reminder that this is a call for any Blenderfags who are willing to help out to make faces/models for the players in game, as well as anyone with a nice voice and a microphone willing to be part of live commentary at one point or another. I also ask that the board vols please sticky this thread until the Cup is over so as to contain any shitposting, OC, banter, or Cupposting, as well as keep a highly visible place for remaining announcements to go.

Quarterfinal Preview

/christian/ vs /b/

Primers

/christian/

- Finished top of Group A

- Back to back champions

- Won their last Cup on a Winnie the Pooh goal at 90'+4

- Undefeated since losing to /bmn/ on January 12th (8 game streak)

- Current Golden Boot leader in St. Peter

- Yet to concede a goal this Cup

- Just try and stop them

/b/

- Finished second in Group B, behind /a/

- Conceded only 3 goals in 4 games

- Have yet to make it to the Semifinals in their history

- Play what is essentially a 7 man backline (5 backs, 2 DMFs)

- Dubs Guy had only scored 3 goals coming into the Cup, currently sits 2nd for the Golden Boot with 5 goals.

Which team will you root for? Kickoff is Friday, 12 CST, 1 EST on https://cytu.be/r/8cup

Quarterfinal Preview

/kind/ vs /bmn/

Primers

/kind/

- Finished top of Group C

- Returning to the tournament for the first time since the 2015 Winter Cup

- 4 different goal scorers this tournament (tied for most among non-eliminated teams)

- Fan favorites include Gold forward Anti-Bully Ranger and the ever-joyful Kirby (non-medal DMF)

- Bronze forward Tender Hugging (4 goals) is currently tied for 3rd in the Golden Boot standings

/bmn/

- Finished second in Group D by virtue of a tiebreaker loss to /u/

- Conceded only a single goal across 4 official games (3 in 5, counting the tiebreaker match)

- Their 4-1 victory over /monster/ in the Round of 16 was their largest victory in team history

- Defeated /christian/ in their last Cup appearance, and followed that up with a shock upset of /a/ in the Round of 16.

- /bmn/ have improved with every Cup appearance: Debut Cup saw them lose in the Round of 16, next Cup ended with a Quarterfinals exit. Is a Semifinal berth in their future?

Be kind, rewind your shitty movies. Quarterfinal 2 goes Friday, 12:30 CST, 1:30 EST. This game and the rest of the Knockout Round will be shown on https://cytu.be/r/8cup

The Golden Boot winner is St. Peter of /christian/ with a whopping 10 goals over the course of the tournament. Full tournament results can be found on the wiki http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/2019_Summer_Infinity_Cup and full statistics as well as match summaries and update team pages will be produced on the wiki in the coming days. Thank you to all the anons who tuned in at one point or another and I look forward to hosting all of you, hopefully with a more stable home base, for the next Cup, coming some time in 2020.
