Division 3 , one of the largest divisions in the NXL had 60 teams entered and ready to do battle . D3 is the first division where the vast majority of its teams don ’ t play all five events . Many of the D3 teams play the two or three events closest to them . That said , going into the ‘ Cup it was Dynamic that held the top spot on the season leaderboard and not surprisingly , they have played all five events of the season . Very surprisingly Texas Titans , a team that ’ s played only two events coming into the World Cup , still has real shot at the title , which tells you all you need to know about how good they are .
Like some of the other divisions , D3 is made up of teams from all over the U . S . and places like Guatemala , Mexico ,

Canada , Panama , Aruba , Columbia and more . Some of the top teams from the preliminary rounds were Punishers Paintball , Dynamic , Raleigh Razorbacks , Noobies , Aruba Madness , Malaysia , Buffalo Wing-It , Kickin Factory , BR Factory , Wolfpack , Houston Hate , LA Wildcards , and EOTS First Degree .
In the end it was the Raleigh Razorbacks over Dynamic 31 to take first place . Interestingly , in their three other events the Raleigh Razorbacks finished in 37th , 24th and 19th place . Safe to say no one thought they had a chance to win the ‘ Cup . But as we ’ ve seen time and time again , sometimes teams make remarkable improvements as the season goes on and that was clearly the case with the Razorbacks .
