Ill/Emp Controller
Ill/Emp Controller
Sonic/Sonic Defender
Rad/Psi Defender
Ice/Thermal Corruptor
Ice/Thermal/Cold/Kin Corruptor (depending on the other team)
Ice/EM Blaster
Ice/EM Blaster
Rad/Psi sets up and calls targets, and then the corruptors and blasters spike Bitter Ice Blast together for basically a guarantee'd kill. Empaths keep everyone upright while the res buffs from the corruptor and the sonic mean that their job is even easier. The thermal puts Melt Armour on the target the Rad/Psi calls, and then Heat Exhaustion on their empath or other support. Sonic keeps his cage on either their empath or their damage, depending on the team. As long as everyone is co-ordinated, this team is damn-near unstoppable.
I'll go with something like this:
*/Empath defender
Ill/Empath controller
Ill/Kin controller
Sonic/Sonic defender
Rad/Psi defender
2 X Fire/Nrg blasters
Any of spines/regen scrapper, */nrg tank, */kin controller/defender, */thermal corruptor, another cager or another Fire/Ice Nrg blaster
Last slot could be any build tbh since you already have the core of the team already before it and leaves you with either adding more dmg, buffs or a extra cager.
Its basically what every US pvp team consists of really since theres very little variation involved

A lot of of the US arena matches i seen recently have a few ill/storms in them which makes watching more than a little annoying with all the damn pets out

Its your fault
Its your computers fault

Ill/Emp/PF Controller
Ill/Emp/PF Controller
FF/Sonic/Power Defender
Kin/Rad /Psi/Power Defender (depending on opponents)
Ice/Thermal/BS Corruptor
Ice/Thermal/BS Corruptor
Ice/EM/Ice Blaster
Grav/Ice/BS Dominator
Pretty much like Xan's setup and tactics but with a few small changes - FF/Sonic instead of Sonic/Sonic because bubbles will stack better with Fort and the def shields for Corrs/Doms (Black Scorpion Shield) and Blasters (Ice Mastery APP), and Ins Shield gives end drain resist. (Also, the Blaster and Dom will have the benefit of self-PB'd def shields at least part of the time.) Force Bubble will also screw people's rhythm up far more than Liquefy ever will, if used sparingly.
With a Rad/Psi in the team, the Rad/Psi calls targets; with a Kin/Psi, the Ice/EM calls targets. I'd expect the Kin/Psi to see more outings than the Rad/Psi given how a lot of arena matches work out; Kins just have more utility in big teams, and if you're going to have a kin in the team you're better off with it being a Defender rather than a Corruptor.
The Grav/Ice Dominator is my wildcard - with all the Forge/Fort flying around, there's more than enough damage floating about in that team. A buffed Dominator in the middle of that provides not only decent damage, but has the benefit of being able to fire off Domination pretty much at will. Teams without Kins would also be crippled by the amount of Web Envelope + Crush you could have flying about, but the main reason for the inclusion is essentially to throw people off their stride. You lose a little damage, you lose a little survivability, and you need someone who's damned good at playing a Dominator as opposed to being able to throw any old monkey into an Ice/EM slot. I think the benefits outweigh the negatives past a certain level of ability, though.

Hey! The team I wrote basically is our 8 man team, except we have an FF/psi instead of a rad/psi!
No worries, you get props for the signature 
I had lots of spare time at work today so this is what I think 
Each member had fitness, acro, ss and the pool in the bracket
Illusion/Empathy/Primal (Fly)
Illusion/Kinetics/Primal (Leadership)
Rad/Psi/Power (Leadership)
Sonic/Sonic/Psi (Concealment)
Ice/Thermal/Mu (Concealment)
Ice/Kinetics/BS (Leadership)
Ice/Energy/Force (Concealment)
Fire/Energy/Force (Concealment)
I have gone duel kinetics which gives 6 memberd of team a 100% Recharge boost, gives them high unsuppressed speed, and basically takes out slows from the equation and provides good protection to end drain. The recharge boost provides perma hasten, allows the empath to keep AB perma in one person and with good timing provide 7 team mates with fort, allows the thermal to keep everyone forged, allows the EM blasters to have perma boost range and power boost, and aim & build up 40% of the time, allows the Rad to lingering rad every 25 seconds (not including AM buff) and have PBU up half the time. The combination of the webnades, or telekinsis and lingering rad, siphon speed etc means targets can be called more often and blaster able to inflict maximum damage more often One kinetics and can kill and another with PB gives a nice mix. I found my ice/kin especially on small maps did as much ranged damage as blasters thanks to fulcrum (a corruptor can make much more out of fulcrum than a controller or defender can) but you wont miss out on the PB slows and endrain.
I have both an Ice/ and Fire/ blaster as they both have great ST attack chains and gives slows from Ice and DoT & HOed Snipe from Fire Two blasters also lessen the damage if one is taken out the game through taunting, cage or whatever. I also think Phase shift could be a good defence against cagers because if the blaster phases as the sonic goes to cage again, that cage is wasted.
This team also gives the possibilities of stacked PB vengeance, although requiring great co-ordination through either binds or TS, would be awesome and stacked with the defence bonus of GI and resistance of epic shield, thermal, and shield make the team very strong

Go for it. As always, no more than 2 of the same AT. Fights at level 50. No holds barred.
I bet I could probably get some guys from the french server in on this as well.

Hell, lets do this properly. I'll post on the Vigilance and Zukunft boards and sort out some kind of international tournament or something.
Teams of 8, heroes OR villains
All fights at level 50
No more than two of the same AT
Inspirations and temp powers are allowed
Anyone have any suggested dates for this?
WOOO PVP!
(I'm in).
Sunday next week?
What do people think the best lvl 50 8 Man Arena PvP team is? You can use up to 2 of each AT both hero and villains. Gives me something to think about at work tomorrow be interested to hear peoples views and arguments
