Maru's 9SL quest begins with another easy group on paper, with TY, Creator, and SHIN looking like doomed challengers. However, after Maru's struggles against soO and SHIN last season, can he really take advancement for granted?

After a turbulent off-season, the WTL is back for another go—now with team alliances allowed! The new system seems new players like ShoWTimE join the fray, while familiar faces like Spirit and Kelazhur return under different banners. See how these new rosters match-up in the TL.net power rank.
