• The Squid Box - They have managed great success in previous tournaments with 1st places wins at Booyah Battle 3, SCL 4, Messtival 1, Booyah Battle 2, and Calimari Cup 1.
• Name Subject To Change (NTSC) - They have had several high placing tournaments with the best being 1st place at SCL 5.
• Meme Containment Unit - This team has pulled out many 2nd and 3rd places finishes at a myriad of events. Will this be the day they finally get first?
• Koopa Clan - A French team that has found much success in Splatoon having gotten 2nd place at both Messtival events.
  
• Bloody Ink - The first Italian Splatoon team.

More information on this event is available here on Squidboards. Best of luck to all teams competing and be sure to stay fresh!

Hosted by the Splatoon Community League, SCL 6 will take place this Sunday on November 15th. At the time of writing 12 teams have signed up for the event which will included talented groups such as:

• Panda Global (SND) - Squids Next Door, sponsored by Panda Global, is a high caliber team capable of putting dents in any tournament.

• Cyberbullies - A semi-successful team having one major placement at Calamari Cup 2 with a 2nd place.

No I believe it was the design of salt spray rig before Splatoon came out they scratched that design and made another one which is the one we see today

 

Semi-successful? You know Cyberbullies is Determination/SS-C/SS-J right? We have had consistent finishes going back a while with our current roster :o

I did not know this. It is really hard to keep up with these constant shifts when you've got other things in life happening.

Nah it's cool, we changed names a few too many times lol. I find it more humorous than anything, no worries.

 

Cool. Nice roundup! If you need any clarification on anything, please don't hesitate to PM me. Here, Twitter, wherever you want. Because I'd call Cyberbullies successful as they are ex-SS-C.
