The Death Group of the Army World Cup tournament is shaping up to be one of the most competitive yet. Results in both groups shocked the community, with notable armies seeing shock losses. Now, with four strong teams remaining — Void Troops, Romans, Scarlet Republic, and Shadow Legionaries — everyone can expect high-stakes battles in every match. Before we dive in further, join us for the Army World Cup recap and community predictions. Let’s look at the previous rounds and see what the community has to say about the upcoming Death Group matchups.
Group Recap
With eight armies participating across two groups, the matchups were always going to be exciting, and, they did not disappoint. Armies that many considered favourites to top their groups fell short, with the smaller armies shocking the community with dominant performances. For Group B, the Romans, spearheaded by Znation, came out on top with dominant 3-0 wins against each army they faced. In second place were the Scarlet Republic, who were able to grab a victory against the Teutons and Shreks.
In Group A, with the Void Troops only having one full battle against the Shadow Legionnaires, one which they lost, the army strolled to second place after their other two battles ended with no shows. The Shadow Legionnaires came in first place after securing their victory against the Void Troops, Fire Vikings, and Crimson Sovereign, a three-peat that left many community members both shocked and impressed at the surprise results.
Community Predictions
With the stage now set, it’s time to look ahead. We asked members of the community to share their predictions for the Death Group and how they believe the standings will unfold. Here’s what they had to say.
Predictions were recorded before the Death Group kick-off.
Znation, Romans Leader: Romans is doing the best, sl is doing decent, vt is also putting in the work, sr is eh so my prediction is Romans 1st, SL 2nd, VT 3rd and SR 4th
TD999, Community Member: I think Romans will come out on top because of their recent rise, VT placing 2nd despite their recent struggles as they are a battle trained army and I think SL and SR would come in 3rd and 4th but will put up a really good fight against the others.
YellowTyper, SMAL Administrator:
Format: [W-T-L]
SL Vs. Romans 2-1-1 SL victory
VT Vs. SR 2-0-1 VT victory
Romans Vs. SR 2-0-1 Romans Victory,
SL Vs. VT 2-1-0 SL Victory,
Romans Vs. VT 1-2-0 VT victory,
SL Vs. SR 2-1-0 SL Victory
So my top 4 is Romans, VT, SL, SR.
William, SWAT Leader: 1. SL, 2. SPQR, 3. VT, 4. SR. Really is between SL and Romans, maybe VT will at least be visible at their battles. I believe SL will triumph.
Pranav, Dark Warriors: Romans and Void Troops each beat SL and SR, Romans vs Void Troops end in a close battle, with Romans winning 2-1-1
Final: Romans, VT, SL, SR
