Out of curiosity, how would you rate our team? 
BTW, I think your analysis about the strongest teams is absolutely correct. Teams we need to really watch for are LP/Arki/Mango and Slaze/Maga. Especially if Maga runs diplo for their team, that's my strongest winner canditate as well. At this point my strategy would be to play solid game, end up likely somewhere in the middle of the pack. Then depending on geopolitics it should be relatively easy to ally with other middle tier teams, let the two top dogs to dish it out and then dogpile the one who's left. Of course we have about 150-200 turns to play before we get this far, but that's my initial assesment.
