Fourth year running, same rules as before, the Ponies that are backing the Losing 3 teams will be forced into Marble Related Punishments, with more and more humilations for how bad they did, with the winner picking a special punishment to humiliate the overall loser, I want to keep the Ponies and Teams consistent from the previous years, so with that said, here's the 16 ponies and their assigned teams.

Crazy Cat's Eyes - Ato (Reigning Champions)
Gliding Glaciers - Osla (Host Team)
Savage Speeders - Arro (2nd Place 2023)
Bumblebees - Umbe (3rd Place 2023)
Balls of Chaos - Lyca
Snowballs - Togue
Green Ducks - Ana
Hazers - Nine
Chocolatiers - Opal
Black Jacks - Don Kro'No
Team Momo - Iba
Raspberry Racers - Yuki
Solar Flares - Yuda
Jungle Jumpers - Malon
Team Galactic - Tsukai
Wolfpack - Luff

Makes sense the Winter Marble League has an icy team hosting it, and the Glading Glaciers make for good host with Osla, let's hope she does better than last year in the process, I'm sure that headset helped her cheering out. Alongside the hosts auto qualifying. so do the previous top 3, those are Unbe with the Bumblebees, Arro with the Savage Speeders, and reigning champion Ato with the Crazy Cats Eyes.

Big surprises in the qualifiers, some of the traditional strongest teams did not qualify, maybe the icy conditions proved to difficult for them. So it's a no show for Zor, Weroc, Tula, Aryll, Izel or Suan, even past champions, Chie with Mellow Yellow and C.T. with the Pinkies didn't make it. Yuki, Iba, Togue and Tsukai returned, celebrating the teams they usually, we have some past returnees, wAna for the Green Ducks, Opal for the Chocalatiers and Lyca for the Balls of Chaos who were last seen in 2022, and Nine is back with the Hazers after last seeing them in 2021.

We also have 4 newcomers as well. Yuda with the Solar Flares, Malon with the Jungle Jumpers, Don Kro'No with the Black Jacks, and Luff switch the Wolfpack.
