BDT and TTM lead the playoff appearances on the strength of their consistent regular season play.
TTM and Aethernauts are the most under performing playoff teams, drawing high seeds and losing in their first round regularly. The Ferries, Homespun, Trichs and psychdog are all at the top of the rankings on the strength of low seed champion years.
The 1 seed unsurprisingly still leads, although a 1 hasn't won since 2017. Bad news, news good news for psychdog as no team has yet repeated in consecutive years, but no team has ever drawn the 1 seed the year after winning it all. Pelican Brief will take a shot at ending the 4 seed's goose egg (they're already responsible for two of them) and their own playoff win drought.
Utter parity in the four and five games as expected.
And confirmation that the six seeds give the threes a run for their money pretty often.
And the furthest round the seeds advance to. Threes and sixes have a good track record making the finals if they clear the first round, buoyed by twos long history of going out in the semis.
And finally, the rings. We have a rare opportunity at three new outcomes this year. A new co-leader (psychdog wins). A new multiple winner (Phat Girlz, BDT, SFF, or TTM win). Or a first time winner (Pelican wins). One of those things will happen.
