From what I saw last year, bandits and badgers were the 2 elite team, with bandits having the upper hand. However, there are probably 5 teams that can challenge for that third spot. 32, outlaws, warriors, legacy and cudas. All depends on the changes that were/we're not made to the rosters. To say anything else before practice and tournaments would be a complete guess. Don't think empire is in the running yet because it didn't look like the talent level at tryouts was high enough yet. But they're brand new and a lot can change.
