5) Team Bartar - 85.76 (Master Moltar: +40.37 / KingBartz: +45.39)

Team Shemale Shanty seems to be making a real effort to turn things around! After being the lowest ranked team to predict every match, they've now gotten a first and a second in the last three days. They still have to gain 19 points to pass the next-lowest team, but that's 20 points less than they needed yesterday! Team AAA is second best today with a score 12 points lower than Josh and Brakmaster. Team Robo Chocobo Remix gets third, followed by Team Lions on a Plane (actually yoshifan flying solo, since RX7 disappeared) and Team Bartar.
