Despite agreeing their big-picture diplo is by far their worst area of play, and maybe even objectively bad, I'm also rooting for Spullla due to the aforementioned anti-Greek/anti-Ottoman feelings that like on in the hearts of Byzantine refugees. Plus, Speaker is a clanmate.
However when people say they're rooting for the "underdog," what side do they mean? 5v1 means little-to-nothing when the attacks are halfhearted (HRE), late (HRE+Rome), uncoordinated (Ottomans+Greece), or just tactically silly (Mali, and the terrible terrible "keep borders open so our stack can be spotted" pre-war move in the north). I'll give credit where credit is due - Speaker and Sullla have played well to avoid loosing even a single city (at least pre-Praets), but even mediocre players shouldn't loose more than 1-2 cities against the current level of enemy play.
