Really hard to guess, but right now

cheap food -> great for stocking techers, great for cashers
cheap military -> great for cashers, nice for techers

cheap military -> bad for indies, but there's so many big talented indies causing it, some will place high
cheap food -> farmers are screwed

#15 and #151 will battle for top casher
#247 and #63 will battle for top techer
#167 is the top commie. #140 isn't in gdi and is living a blessed life

if there is a land fat casher they should do well

My prediction is no techers or farmers in the top 10.

1 Rep
1 Theo Casher
8 Commies

A commie will win it. The commie I tip to win is not the fattest at the moment though, but I still think he will take it - thats because I know who is playing it

Also I know we say this every set, but this time around with the low food prices and dirt cheap tech starting from this month, all top 10s will b above 100m. In fact I think at least 12 people will have more than 100m NW.

#167 is having a brilliant round. as I said I think he'll be the top commie. btw, no one told me this, but i assume it's bakku, so that kind of finish should be expected. I stop short of saying he'll win because, after a good start for commies, this now looks like a casher's round. I don't know who to pick.

#140 is way more impressive to me. After getting retalled and hit many times and if he wasn't so noob at attacking with the multiple DHs he would be at ~70k acres. The no SDI might hurt him sooner or later when the suiciders decide to start having their fun.

If he was at 70k acres right now he would have had to sell more military in building those acres along the way, keeping net down earlier and leaving himself open to more top feeds. It's a fine balance in having the military to defend, attack, and sell enough to buy tech and build. If you sell too much to build, your military and tech suffers and you get topfed.

Anyways, most of those 6 DHs woulda been about 500 acre grabs.

I need an e key with the acute accent on it. Tres bien << doesn't sound right without it. No I can't google how to insert it. Je ne veux pas apprendre le français. Merde.

I would put money on 167 for t3... definitely the top commie.

I'm not sure what excuse a casher can have for taking a month to make a retal.

Gotta get physical resists up for that trep (Mortar does physical grenade damage, not Fire - this is from Bradygames guide for D3).

Armor and Resists multiply off each other for damage reduction.

anyway back to the topic...I'm sticking with my top5 pick.

3 commies, 1 theo and a rep and the rep takes it.

I will be interested to see if the Rep can beat the Theo. Not sure on that. Shouldn't techers have a shot? Which commies do you have holding off the techers?

the rep and theo cashers should be able to take 1 and 2 easily but i'm not sure which one of them will win. if i had to guess, though, i'd say the theo

oh, and techers never have a shot in primary :P

The rep should be cashing circles around the Theo. With so many CIs and hence depressed military prices, I'm going to give the edge to the rep.

yea it all depends on when military prices start to rise and how high. now that i think about it again the rep might be golden here with the absurd number of CI's over 60k acres and the still ridiculous military prices

Bakku, i disagree with your statement that a techer doesnt have a shot in primary. Obviously no shot in this sets tech market, but in some of those 2.2k average price markets, a techer can make 140m nw with a clean set.
