A little behind Aurora with Torontotokyo and Mira, but the five people also claimed to be at least for the playoffs round.
The teams from China in previous seasons play weaker, but Tide Tidebound created a good application by winning the Home's Home tournament of Clavision Masters 2025 in early August.
