Power rankings and rationale
1. WIN/Dream Team: Tribe with the highest bash despite having low amount of members
This tribe is made up of the usual winners of previous US world. Despite taking number 3 on the point leaderboard, it still has the overall best power in the world. Also has a tribe level of 44. Amount of top 50: 7
2. Ghosts of Democracy/GOD: Tribe with the highest points per person. Unsure about the origins here, but this tribe has a very secure spread across NW with respectable bash. Amount of top 50: 13
3. Old Friends Again/OFA: Recent winner of a world and tribe with the highest amount of members. Despite it being an MRT, MRTs can be very effective if used correctly. Amount of top 50: 10
4. Utterly Senseless Associates/USA: Not as strong as the top3 on the list, but still a valid contender. Amount of top 50: 6
4. Red Ax Regalia/RAR: Seems to be on par with USA in terms of strength. Amount of top 50: 6
Percentage of Winning
1. GOD/Ghosts of Democracy: 42.5ish % Although the second on the power rankings, WIN has had terrible diplomacy, with the rest of the tribe seeing it as the number 1 threat and forming a coalition against them. In addition, GOD seems to have great players capable of winning the world.
1. OFA: 42.5%ish as well. OFA certainly wins by the numbers. Although the members in OFA is less elite compared to GOD or WIN, they are still better than average. Therefore, the world seems mostly going to be a toss up between OFA and GOD, probably depends on there diplomacy. If either tribe makes the same mistake as WIN, the victory will go to the other.
2. Dream Team (WIN): 10%ish. WIN, even though having the best member composition has blundered in terms of diplomacy, having most of the other top tribes banding up against them. Although having definitely elite members, Win has already shown signs of faltering, losing villages and a continually rising DBP to OBP ratio, signaling that its defense has been greatly strained. WIN has made itself diplomatically unreachable as well as closing all recruitment, no doubt greatly lowering their chances of victory. Since it's a domination world, other tribes have probably adopted a "kill them first or be killed" mindset. WIN has little chance of victory indeed. The only real chance WIN has to win is to go beyond the 35 member limit. It's really too late for them, as they have already expressed their sentiment on honoring the 35 player competition challenge (which is a respectable endeavor). Their lack of diplomacy and communication with other tribes is unfortunately their grave. With them being the number 1 threat, the rest of the server will band and fight against them.
3. RAR and USA: 2.5% each.. Both of these tribes have some great members but I doubt they can win on their own. Perhaps a merge will happen, either to each other or to one of the top 3 tribes.. But then, they will no longer be RAR or USA eh..
4. Rest of the tribes: less than 1%.. barring a great upset, I don't see much chance of those tribes winning on their own. At most, it would be a merge to win. Personally think that the better players in the tribes might very well join the tribes higher on the power ranking. These tribes definitely have great players, but the overall quality and quantity is still a bit lacking to compare with the previous three tribes. They have pretty much no chance of competition, with the only possibility being disbanding and merging into one of the stronger tribes.
Predictions
WIN gets eventually steamrolled, with some members going on to the new world or merging into other tribes (OFA, GOD, etc). OFA and GOD clash, with the tribe with the best diplomacy winning. The rest of the tribes will probably pick a side between OFA and GOD with the better players eventually merging in.The winner will kill the rest of the tribes.
This world is definitely still very uncertain. I think the winner will be a coin flip between GOD and OFA. I personally respect the smaller GOD tribe though. They seem to be great contenders despite having little members, and one of the few small tribes that TW2 needs to make it more competitive, rather than a near 100 member MRT (sure its a great tactic.. but is winning really fun without fighting anyone?)
Overall.. diplomacy is of the essence in this world and will be the determiner of who wins this world
