Phantom 22.1 Cavaliers 22.0 Considering the gap I’m referring to is between BS and Phantom, not Cavies and Phantom, I think you’re actually reading my previous comment wrong. Plus gotta include GE in that analysis. EDIT: to be clear, definitely understand the confusion Edited July 4, 2023 by college-phan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we'll see how the dance of trimming demand, as well as recurring ensemble rehearsal time goes for elevating that obvious /current caption trailing number. It's a tough show, no doubt.

That’s gonna be key imo. Personally I’m not the most in tune with Perc scoring and all, but I can only hope the staff is working to make some changes that’ll make Finals a Phantom v Cadets battle for fifth. Going to be hard to win that if they aren’t on a somewhat equal playing field in percussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know alot of people aren't paying attention to them because they are out west, but there is a little corps from Sacramento that is going to fit into the 5th place equation before its all said and done. Not saying they will finish 5th, but they will have a say before it's all said and done. Don't sleep on the Mandarins in 2023. They are a legit threat for top six. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sorta view Mandarins in a tier by themselves right now with Phantom and Cadets above them and Cavies and Blue Stars below them. That can quickly change as the season progresses, but I need to see some more additions and tweaks of their show before I move them up to the PR-Cadets tier. Of course, could be very wrong here as I am not a judge, but I’m not convinced they’re quite to that level (just design and execution wise) just yet.

Roughly a week behind coming out of ST. Gonna be fun to watch. There’s a psychology to being the “pursuer” that is more desirable than being the “pursued”.

KVG_DC Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I'm not sure we're really gonna know the 'tiers' beyond 1-4 then 5-9 and Fight for Finals until San Antonio when they're all together. Even then, they might not be distinguished much more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 2+ weeks left to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
