Z Strats forced me to post my totally biased predictions.
Canada (4) vs US East (4)
Mishimono vs.
Actuarily | Very cool to see the highlight in slot 1, favoring bandit here as they should be more motivated and won last time they faced eachother in scl finals, basically a tossup though as theyve both been solid.
Eisenherz vs.
Paraplegic | Para is undefeated and has looked good so far so he gets the bold, eisen is also a solid player and doesn't make a lot of mistakes from what I've seen, overall should be a pretty close game.
Grandmas Cookin vs. DaWoblefet | Dawob stole my team last week and made it worse by not running telepathy fini.
Z Strats vs. zeefable | zee can definitely win and builds some scary teams as well but I just can't bold against ray with how dominant he's been in recent tours.
RelicanthPrimal vs. dnagerbdager | Rooting for my homie dnager but relicanth has looked a bit better this tour overall and has more experience as well as making majors finals. To their credit, dnager played a solid game last week in a pretty bad matchup and came really close to getting the win so they can definitely get the dub with some good piloting.
chlo vs.
qsns | qsns is more experienced and they're the better doubles player, could definitely go either way as chloe has looked good in pools and has brought nice teams.
KyleCole vs.
SingleThunder | Both players' play has felt shaky at times in my opinion, however singlethunder has 3 wins and has been bringing better teams so I'll bold them here.
omicorio vs. Xrn | honestly I don't think I've watched a single game from either player but predicting omi makes it a tiebreaker so I'll go for that :).
good luck to both teams, hoping to see some cool games!
