We break down four of the eight teams during this weeks preview. With the other 4 teams scheduled for next weeks show. We analyze the records and accolades, the strengths and potential vulnerabilities of each athlete on each team, and the strategic paths to victory that each team might pursue.In our preview, we start with Team 10th Planet. We discuss the interesting team dynamic and how EBI pioneers like Geo Martinez and EBI 19 Champion Alan Sanchez, who are specialists in the submission-only format, will integrate with a newer CJI Quintet format. We talk about PJ Barch, the ADCC bronze medalist, whose formidable wrestling background and top pressure has proven to be an effective against the top level. PGF, EBI and CJJ champion Ryan Aitken with his blend of classic 10th Planet style with modern high-percentage techniques adding to the interesting and unpredictable team.Next, we turn to Team Australasia, a squad meticulously assembled by respected coach and strategist Lachlan Giles, known for his analytical approach to the sport.
