I really agree about Carolina Crown, again I was blown away by them....My 3rd favorite corp of the night. If the brass was a little more solid they in my mind should easily be ahead of Crossmen. I think the visual design is so much stronger. What a pure pleasure to see.
I have to say I tend to enjoy the Cavies style a bit more then BD and were hoping they'd do well...That said I totally agreed Blue Devils won tonight. Congrats to them on a well deserved victory. They were incredibly clean and sharp. The guard seemed totally in control of their bodies, amazing.
It was obvious the Cavies have a ton of things to fix and work on. I think this outcome next week is really going to hinge on how much cleaner they can get...all the fine little details. They didnt seem to have really good energy tonight either. Without disrespecting the Blue Devils, in my mind the devils perform a much less complicated show extremely well. I think the Cavies show is a lot riskier especially on the visual design (and more demanding, too).
More often then not though clean beats hard... so we will just have to see who works the hardest this week.
It's going to be exciting!
