droplet here -- im rooting for a fun battle! i can see it going either way
water has a *lot* prepped for this push, we planned to go all out for the fire V water battle. now that focus and preparation has shifted towards water V ice

ice is at a disadvantage because they have not had NEARLY the time to prep for this. but imo that makes it way more fun, and way more like the dom we used to have and the dom culture i missed -- spontaneity
i think dom-oriented people will support ice in excitement of dom being "like it used to be" and wanting to support the underdog of the battle

ice is formidable in its own right and i'm positive they'll put up a GOOD fight, despite the lack of preparation. OOF support is gonna be huge game changer in this battle, but i think ice has the potential to put together a better raffle with better prizes, due to how many breadwinners are in ice that can donate bigger ticket items to entice support

i hope ice dom people are as excited about this battle as i am! i know ice used to love dom (i was a partial dom organizer way back in the day) and i hope a lot of the people who missed what dom used to be come out of the woodwork to support their flight. water has organization, but ice has zeal

i think this is going to be a LOT of fun
