No. 31 Dynasty Last poll position: N/A Quick hit: Has recorded a few strong performances in tournaments, and more importantly, he’s starting to earn some respect from the community and its members. No. 32 Fool Last poll position: No. 32 Quick hit: Hand it to him, he won a Madden Challenge world title, which is something that even some of the biggest names can’t say. If he doesn’t rebound with something remotely impressive in the next year, we’ll be saying bye-bye to Fool on our rankings, but for now he is still a recent champion and could show up at almost any event and do serious damage. No. 33 Young Jarvis Last poll position: No. 29 Quick hit: Another Madden Challenge champion who proves that you need more than one great year to have staying power in this community. No. 34 Tommie Hill Last poll position: No. 26 Quick hit: When he’s in the mix, you can’t rest. He’s a consistent factor. No. 35 BTEP Last poll position: No. 40 Quick hit: This kid’s stock is rising really fast and there was even some chatter pegging BTEP as one of the favorites at The Player’s Bowl. With confidence behind him, he should be able to do some pretty decent things this year. No. 36 JayO Last poll position: No. 38 Quick hit: An excellent Playstation 2 gamer who is a little behind the times as he looks to iron out the kinks in his Xbox 360 game. No. 37 JRosas Last poll position: No. 33 Quick hit: This year, he’ll need to transfer those skills online to the tournament setting. He does have the stamp approval from a lot of solid gamers in the Midwest. No. 38 JR Last poll position: No. 34 Quick hit: There has been a bit of confusion with this selection…this is J.R. from Baton Rouge, not from Madden Nation. If you don’t know who that is, then you’re probably not deep enough in to the community yet. No. 39 Big Tymer Last poll position: No. 9 Quick hit: Hey BigTymer, grab a Madden Challenge regional championship this year and you can say hello to the top 30. No. 40 CTOP Last poll position: N/A Quick hit: Seems to do well in tournaments…other than the Madden Challenge for obvious reasons. No. 41 Shayan Tariq Last poll position: No. 39 Quick hit: Him and his former Madden Challenge champion brother have done nothing to speak of recently…they might be soon falling from the list. No. 42 Evil Ryu Last poll position: No. 42 Quick hit: Plain and simple: a solid competitor, nothing flashy. Wait, is that a good thing? No. 43 Litez Out Last poll position: No. 9 Quick hit: He’s putting in the effort to get out to the tournaments, and performing well in the process. Litez Out will be a strong competitor on this year’s Madden Challenge. No. 44 Pause Last poll position: No. 43 Quick hit: One of the very few, if not the only, Problem-solver during the Madden Challenge. Pause knocked Problem out of a Playstation 2 tournament during the tour. No. 45 The Preacher Man Last poll position: No. 47 Quick hit: Baby steps are better than no steps at all. The Preacher Man makes it out to the tournaments and slowly, but surely, raises his stock. No. 46 VisorMan Last poll position: No. 46 Quick hit: There is something to be said about a gamer who is talented, but also a leader in the Madden community. VisorMan is both. He’s quickly becoming a household name. No. 47 SJR Last poll position: N/A Quick hit: He didn’t blast on to the scene in the middle or at the top of the list, but it’s a start for a gamer who has labored hard at his craft. No. 48 D.C. Bama Last poll position: No. 48 Quick hit: His position was reflective of his recent performances on the Madden circuit: unchanged. No. 49 Chuck Hollywood Last poll position: No. 50 Quick hit: Mr. Hollywood is everywhere, playing in tournaments, blogging, trash talking, but he’s yet to come up with the big win. Not many believe in him quite yet. No. 50 Gares Last poll position: No. 49 Quick hit: He’s a fairly consistent player and definitely not your average or casual Madden gamer.
