As to what legitmately constitutes "super" I think it's actually a silly notion because in essence the comparison is between Pro level teams and everyone else. What's the point of making the comparison at all? Are the New York Yankees super compared to all the minor league teams in baseball? I suppose so but so what?
The only legitmate comparisons are those among teams of presumably equivalent level and as Arsenal doesn't play Xball and 7-man is fractured staking the claim they is a super-team seems premature if not fanciful. But, you know, whatever makes you all warm and fuzzy.

1. So Arsenal, 5th in Super 7s last year, currently 5th this year, and the only team to take a Millennium off Dynasty, doesn't compete at 7-Man? O-K.

2. OK, let's ban all adjectives ever...great, good, middling even.

As I said, if it makes you all warm and fuzzy, Maestro, please call them super to your heart's content, but--
Super is one of those adjectives so badly abused in sports talk as to amount to mostly hyperbolic nothingness. No doubt empty accolades make them all warm and fuzzy too.
And don't get me started on The 18...

Gyro, you too, may dispense super superlatives on whomever you wish. And while it was a nice try they aren't "super" either.

And what, pray tell, does sports talk have to do with Paintball, hmm?

Hoisted by your own petard.
