Join Spain CeeJaey, Latvia Clark and England Jon on BlackOut TV tonight at 21:15 CET for the first Premiership match of week 5, with European Highpander© facing Ireland Stacked on our old favourite pl_badwater.

Neither of these teams will be thrilled with how their seasons have gone so far – England Hildreth‘s pandas currently sit in 4th place, with Ireland b33p‘s petit chou-fleurs occupying the 5th spot. European Highpander© notably gifted Russia WASP 2 points by losing a round of Barnblitz, which will have come as a big wake-up call and also a sign to their opponents that they can be taken down. They recovered with a comfortable week 4 victory over Russia Unpoppable, but still look less dominant than we’re used to seeing them. NA Heavy UnitedStates Polk‘s sketchy turnout so far seems to be hurting the team as a stream of merc Heavies step through the revolving door, although the roster is far more stable than England Hildreth predicted in his pre-season interview.

Meanwhile, Ireland b33p has been busy gradually losing his mind, pioneering the “kill yourself with your own level 3” strategy against European PremTech and causing something of a stir over his interpretation of the mercenary rules. Many people tipped Ireland Stacked for a strong season before things got underway, but despite strong performances from the likes of Belgium droso and France Hidan results have been going against them left right and centre. The roster is still about as stable as a matchstick spawn room, with UnitedStates Dimento coming in to replace France NULL and lasting roughly 24 hours before being unceremoniously booted from the chateu by Prem’s newest Engie main. Their 6v6 DM machine Scout mains are also nowhere to be seen, with Finland ekkelund stepping in and putting in a good shift against European PremTech. Despite all the madness, Ireland Stacked still managed to take a round from Finland BAITO‘s terrifying biker gang on their strongest map and are still capable of pulling something out of the bag tonight.

The only question that remains – whose third hold is deadliest?
