*reads Ponyland* Great, now I can't get this image out of my head of Firefly being the leader of pony Poland.

Fellow comrades!!! It’s time to bring in the nightmare to the game with the Queen of the night, Nightmare Moon!

 

[Batbrony 15,992]

*Luna reading this*

 

 

"HOW DARE THEE DECLARE THAT NIGHTMARE MOON CONTROLS THE MOON, 'TIS WE WHO CONTROL THE MOON! WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS TRAVESTY?!"

 

*(For real though, I seriously need a 'Nightmare Moon vs. Luna' subplot for this entire tournament like I need to breathe air now, MAKE IT HAPPEN FORUMS, DON'T DISAPPOINT ME!)

 

 

Let's see, what else we got here... ha, I like to imagine Spitfire's thinking, "Celestia-dammit, why couldn't I have been made captain of like, IDK, Las Pegasus or something? Wonderbolts Academy is my bucking dayjob!"

 

 

"All I want are slots and pony pina coladas, is that REALLY so much to ask for?!?!?!"

 

On another amusing note, Tirek's pretty much been assigned captain of his hellish prison which is HILARIOUS.

 

 

*Tirek realizing he's gonna be spending this entire tournament planning a 1-man 'The Great Escape'*

 

Don't really have anything else other than Maud may be a sneaky strong competition, especially assuming most of the other Pie sisters are part of her team. Don't understimate Team Rock Farm, ya'll! 

[Jeric 46,819]

Shenanigans are afoot, CLEARLY the Lord of Chaos is already throwing a wrench into everything by making a ninth division when there are eight to begin with! 

 

Also, I just love this image in my head of Discord in a bathrobe staring out his front window and muttering to himself, "What are all these creatures doing on my lawn? Fluttershy, did you invite some guests to our tea party? Oh, I'm gonna need more plates and cucumber sandwiches..."

 

 

Meanwhile Poniverse's very own Buffy be sitting over here like, "What do you mean I'm a team captain, I'm a mascot for a fandom site, THIS IS SO MUCH PRESSURE!!!"

 

*Buffy assembling a squad to take on beloved canon staples*

 

 

And finally... don't you DARE be fooled by the denizens of the Thicket. Aspen and the deerfolk can be downright diabolical schemers, isn't that right, @Ashen Pathfinder?

 

 

As my beloved Milwaukee Bucks say, FEAR THE DEER, FEAR THE DEER INDEED, YOU FOOLS!!!

Really? No team captain or location dedicated to Equestria Girls? That's a shame though I can understand why.

Are you sure about that? Take a look in division 3.

Manehattan - Coco Pommel

I guess it's pretty obvious which team I'll be joining (again). Even if there are a couple of other quite appealing ones...

CANON for "The Moon" during the last World Cup is that Luna finally found a healthy common ground with her darker & more powerful alter-ego. Nightmare Moon re-appeared as an apparition at the start of the games, because Luna needed to embrace that part of herself in order to finish off Grogar. It will be interesting to see how this pans out., if there's anyway that can still fit into the continuing story.
