GREETINGS /pone/
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:

I mixed in some really old memes with the new memes implying there was recent content :^) for any older anons from 2014-15 still left. I'll wait a couple days before submitting so if any of you lads have any suggestions the player names can be easily changed and as for A S T H E T I C S i'm pretty sure no one minds keeping the old shit. The abilities and strategies are still a work in progress and the due date for those are a month from now so I won't post it here today.

This is insane, ridiculous, moronic, and incredible and I will certainly accept your submission. Just so long as you explain what a ZMF is. PES doesn't list that position.

Translation fuck up from one of the info pages I was using, the correct one was CMF.
>LWF but no RWF
I wanted to emphasis passing to the captain on the left side, with Aryanne being a loose cannon and try to score whenever she had the chance on the right side with a good defense wall behind her. If there isnt anything else, I'll be submitting later tonight.
I'll be honest I dont know much about PES

The other tactical stuff is still in progress will post when it's done. Asthetics should be done in a couple of hours.
*The Instigator was renamed into Build-Up for PES 2017. The editor still lists it as The Instigator for some reason.

Yeah I kind of feel bad about that but I've already put in 2 weeks of testing the full team build in the game. I can say that against teams from last cup with 2 gold, 2 silver, 2 bronze we only lost 1 in several matches against the top teams. So I'm pretty optimistic about what happens when I put it against teams that aren't stacked against /pone/ and in line with the current rules. /ita/ recently put up their entire strat so I'll be testing against that soon.

The /pone/ Kit is finally complete. These are recreations of the originals used in Cups 1 and 2 except the Away kit, which is the one we've been currently using. I figured the guard uniform was more appropriate as a home kit. whoever the fuck decided to use dropbox to archive the Cup 1 and 2 kits please kill yourself you retard it expired

Forgot to post this for you guys:
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:
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.

The shit I posted was a work in progress and the build has changed a fair bit since I posted it. Some players have changed positions and some skills and playing styles were changed based on results from games against the teams that have already locked in as far as I know they could easily change them on the due date :^) their strategies. The player roster is still the same and I'm still using the 4-2-1-3 formation.

You've been placed into Group B with /b/, /a/, and /ck/ and your schedule is listed in pic related.
