After the craziness that we now call Altador Cup V ended, we were left without a real front-runner for winning the cup this summer. With Lost Desert having won AC V, the teams I would call the original powerhouses (LD, KI, RI, and DC) have now all won gold. Someone either now has to step up to the plate and shake things or dare I say even repeat? Of the teams that have yet to win a cup, Kreludor has without a doubt had the most success. Since sitting out in the second cup, Kreludor came back and placed fifth, placed fourth, and won the silver last year. What got them there is their notorious and consistent skills in the side games.

If you tried to visit our WordPress URL, you probably noticed that it now re-directs to our new site :)  Altador.com is now up and running.  Over the next few days you will probably notice some more minor changes being made to the site.  If you notice any technical difficulties, the best way to inform me is to PM me (Alex) on the forums.  Recently in the news TNT announced that the Altador Cup 5 prize shop will be closing on MAY 25th.  This most likely means the Altador Cup sign-ups or actual tournament will be starting on the 25th of May.   That’s less than one month away!

At the top of our site you may have noticed a few new tabs. I created a dedicated page for the Altador.com Podcasts, which you can visit by clicking here. Also, I created a few polls which you can find here. Some of the polls are just related to site demographics, such as how old you are, while others are Altador Cup related. Give us your opinion by voting in the polls. And if you have a suggestion for a new poll, leave a comment in the comment box :) In unrelated news, Niku form Niku’s AC Blog came up with an amusing remix, based on the Bed Intruder Song.  I thought our readers’ might enjoy it. (Well, OBVIOUSLY we have a troll on the AC Boards!) He’s climbin’ on

I personally believed that Moltara preformed poorly because we had too much press exposure. That Altador Cup ad that kept on playing on Nickelodeon made Moltara look like one of the better teams to join. Then there was also all that buzz when I discovered the Team Moltara background, and then all the swf’s that followed it. Then there was also that our team looks a bit epic. And not to mention that Moltara was the center of the Atlas of the Ancients plot, the most recent plot
