From an unbiased point of view:
The XLPC scene was doing good before CD re-opened there, hardly any clan FS,OB,Envy, OP, used tanks. The moment CD re-opened the cancer started and they had a rivalry against OP which OP won for 4 weeks, untill CD hyped it up and went bezerk with tanks. I remember CD was pulling 20-30 people and sitting in singles for 2 hours doing nothing. The reason CD brings tanks to compete in the wilderniss is because their leadership isn't trusting the quality of their returns or members, thats why Cubie is logged in on 14 tanks every weekend.
The xlpc scene can be so more enjoyable if teams dont team up on other teams, and just drop the tanks and have nice big clusters and 1-2 hour return fights.
