1: ~Void~
Obvious pp pushing tribe with a 40k lead on the rank 2 tribe. Only know a handful of players in the tribe, and sadly they don't impress with known poor showings in the past. Also note that their duke account has already been rimmed lol to hop onto an account that can pp for him. Second biggest account has a grand total of 22.6k combined resources from both farming and scavenging, obviously hasn't; been using any pp yet. 1 member in top 25 farming and 3 in top 25 gathered. Location is also core locked in k44, and will thus have to fight other top tribes early to try and gain rim access.
2: DI
Core group from 107 with new additions to fill out the roster. Under new leadership from 107 tribe and missing some of the biggest names and carries from that world. Time will tell if new people can step up to fill in the holes and if new leaders can live up to the old ones. Located on k55 rim. 1 player in top 25 gathering and 1 player in top 25 farming.
3: EAT
Again only recognize a handful of accounts, none of which make great impressions, but also no obvious red flag accounts. Duke account looks to be a bit of a red flag though at rank 8, yet only having 27k res combined from farming and gathering in a day. Spread out over k54 rim they have good rim access. Will likely have to contend with rank 9 tribe for continent dominance. 0 players in top 25 farming and 2 players in top 25 scavenging.
4: .OS.
Recognize a decent amount of veterans in this tribe, which is both good and bad. They have some strong players to help carry them, and also some obvious weak links that will be taken advantage of in later game. Biggest red flag for this tribe is its tribe location at the top of k44/45. By being split over both ks they will have lots of competition, in both ks to face and plenty of current top tribes are located in the north with Qukka on the west, Life on the east, and Void to the south, they will have to fight some early bigger war, if not wars to try and gain control over one of the main ks. 2 players in top 25 farming and 4 players in top 25 gathering.
5: HDS
Fairly recognizable cast located on the k45/55 border. Despite having a good amount of recognizable names they typically have a poor reputation on worlds for not working well with others. They suffer from the same location problems as .OS. where they will have to deal with tribes in 2 main ks during start up as diplomacy will likely be key for them, with DI to the south of them, LIFE to the north, and twisted in the core of k45. 1 player in the top 25 farming and 3 in the top 25 farming.
6: Twist
Only recognize a single player in the tribe, so not much to say. Location is fairly terrible and similar to VOID but with 3 other top 10 tribes to have to deal with early on instead of 2. They are core locked in k45 with .OS. to their north, Life in the middle, and HDS in the east. Oh and they have rank 1 VOID to the west, if they have any players worth recruiting. No players in either the top 25 farming or gathering.
7: Quokka
Recognize mainstay names from w106. And I might be biased here again, but they aren't impressive. Of all the tribes ranked so far, they probably have the worst tribe leadership. Sadly an upcoming tribe will somehow manage to take this title from them. Located on k44 rim, and thus will have to deal with rank 1 tribe in the core and potentially .OS. in the northern part of the k. 1 player in the top 25 farming and 1 player in top 25 gathering.
8: LIFE
Don't know a single person in this tribe lol. Location is pretty bad though as k45 looks to be the most hotly contested continent so far with .OS., HDS, and Twist also looking to expand and takeover the continent. they do benefit from being on the rim and having some controlled rim access. 1 player in top 25 farming and 2 in top 25 gathering.
9: Joker
Sam's tribe. Is there really anything else one needs to say. Takes worst leadership award away from Quokka. Recognize a handful of accounts, but when you are doomed with leadership, you can't expect to much from them in the long term. Will likely fall apart as soon as the going gets tough lol. Located in k54 and thus will have to contend with EAT for continent control. 1 player in top 25 farming and 0 in top 25 gathering.
10: GS
Huge family tribe with 4 tribes making up the family. Nothing more gross then a large family tribe, and nothing more nooby. Located in k55 core. Will be cannon fodder for someone, unless they can manage to mobilize their massive size number of having 4 tribes into doing something, but I wouldn't count on it. Top players will likely in time be picked up by other tribes if any top players come out of the tribe. 0 players in either top 25 farming or gathering.
To early to call if any 1 or 2 tribes stick out from the rest imo, will have to see how each tribe navigates its core k and see if growth can be stained or falls off as pp usage starts to decrease and wars start to kick off. North looks to be more contested then south based on top 10 tribe rankings, but I recognize multiple premades who have yet to break the top 10 wall and will likely change future rankings.
