The cup has been delayed by about a month.

The GameWelcome to Virtual Divegrass.
Each board creates a team to represent them, choosing the roster of players, and selecting their skills, formation and team tactics (within the set rules). Our teams are then played against each other in AI vs AI matches, with some live management for substitutions and switching tactics.
But more importantly, we mod our teams with aesthetics! Choose player names to represent our culture, create glitchy 3D models and uniforms, select hype anthems for each player when they score, and most important of all, spam dumb banter at the other boards. This game is purely entertainment, PES is notoriously chaotic and broken, such that it is colloquially called a Random Number Generator, so if you play to try an win, you're a loser. Remember, when we win, the Left was right all along. When we lose, it wasn't real socialism, and also the game is rigged by /pol/ anyway.
Our TeamWe traditionally play with an extra player on the left side. I've made a few changes (and am still making changes) but we're currently playing well against the boards in the ongoing World Cup.
These players are forwards and most likely to scoreCenter Forward: Stalin (captain, gold-tier player, hangs around up the front to receive the ball and score)
Center MidFielder: Alunya (gold-tier player, technically a midfielder but often plays a deep attacking role whenever the forwards are halted by their defense)
Left-Wing Forward: Lenin (silver-tier player, supports and pushes the ball forward from the left side)
Second Striker: Porky (silver-tier player, supports and pushes the ball forward from the right side)
These two positions play a supporting role along with Alunya, to move the ball from our defensive line to the attackers, as well as providing a player to pass back to when an attack stalls.Defensive MidFielder: Critical Support
Defensive MidFielder: TYBNA
The other players form a defensive line to break down attacks, along with a goalkeeper who can use their hands to block goal-scoring attempts.
You may notice that our team and others on implyingrigged.info shape their formation or have players in positions with figurative meaning or jokes. We have Stalin as the captain and attacking 'star player', Porky on the right wing, CRITICAL SUPPORT in a supporting role, and goalkeepers as cheesy retorts like 'post chin' or NOT REAL COMMUNISM being the annoying jerks blocking all their shots at goal.
So yeah, currently they're in a solid central defensive position blocking attacks (excuse the misalignment in the image). "Chapters 1-3 of Capital vol 1" is solid.
