less serious than usual host predicts bc im bored:
Dreamyard Diancies (5) vs (3) Brave Mew World
SS:
Juno vs Chuerk - Tough game to call between two people who seem to be in the camp of "good but need to iron out mistakes" - I think Juno will take it just bc I felt Chuerk's game was a lot more sloppy than Juno's was. It really could go either way but idk, gut feeling.
SS: Accelgor vs
Adaam - Adaam seems a lot more interested in this meta than Accel does. That alone is a big difference in a matchup where I'd rate both players about the same in skill level. I think Adaam will take it just because of that motivation factor, but Accel is known to be the clutch god anyway so if they play Sunday he's taking it.
SS: Cynde vs
Twilight - I lucked Twi
SM: Xiri vs
pokemonisfun - pif is far too dangerous to bold against but Xiri knows this tier better than most people would expect. I think it's closer than it seems.
ORAS:
Killintime vs Wanka - fuck wanka
BW:
Finchinator vs r0ady - Finch is far, faaar too interested and motivated in these BW tiers. I know r0ady loves BW UU more than anyone probably, even Finchinator, but the skill disparity is a little too high for me to bold him here.
DPP:
Heysup vs esche - Everyone knows this is Heysup's tier. I do think esche is probably the person who can take him out reliably, but it's hard to go against the fact that Heysup has been playing this shit since I was learning how to read.
ADV:
Expulso vs xJoelituh - No idea. Just bolding Expulso bc he's been doing fairly well in ADV and I really don't have a clue.
Dragon's Den Dragonairs (4.5) vs (3.5) TDK Today at 22:01 lily my team has decided we will not have a team name
SS: Kushalos vs
Ajna - Kush sent Accel flying last week and that's incredible impressive given Accel is probably the person to beat in this tour. Ajna, on the other hand, took out Bushtush in one of the weirdest games I've ever seen. I don't think one is particularly dominant compared to the other but my gut says Ajna takes it.
SS:
Feliburn vs umbry - I love umbry so much but Feli owned me in UUPL so I have to bold him no matter what
SS:
LNumbers vs SoulWind - Rooting for my boy LNumbers to slay the titan, you can do it champ!
SM: PinkDragonTamer vs
suapah - PDT is fire but suapah is ridiculously good and should take this one in an even MU unless PDT brings some crazy unexpected shit that catches him off guard.
ORAS:
Pak vs obii - obii forfeited :(
BW:
Chill Shadow vs choolio - choolio always wins when I don't watch his games and always loses when I do watch them. If this game isn't linked he'll win.
DPP: Leru
vs Eternal Spirit - I have NO IDEA
ADV: brewfasa vs
Star - Star is incredible in just about every tier he touches and fatty's game last week, while decent, had some noticeable mistakes (and some poor luck) that makes me think Star will take it.
Los Cherno Bouffalants (6) vs (2) Union Cave Dunsparce
SS:
Nat vs CBU - The noodle is a demon when she's motivated and I can't see her -not- being motivated here given how much I've talked to her about this tour and forced her to want to do well. Oops. I believe in you queen
SS:
Lyss vs basaninho - Lyss has quietly been picking people off in a lot of tournaments lately. Basa is no slouch and has a great shot at taking this but his games always seem a little more shaky than Lyss's do to me.
SS:
Askov vs Moutemoute - How Askov went this late is still beyond me but he has looked very solid in both this tournament and in Snake. Moute hasn't looked poor at all lately other than minor hiccups, but I think Askov's a pretty big wall to overcome.
SM:
robjr vs Santu - I rate Santu *slightly* higher as a player atm but rob knows this tier waaaaaaay better, I think that'll be bigger than the minor playing gap.
ORAS:
Garay oak vs Kink - Garay just seems to be farming everyone everywhere at all times lately, no matter the tier. Kink's great, obviously, but Garay seems to be on another level atm.
BW: Lopunny Kicks vs
watashi - I love punny and he seems to own everyone everywhere. Just feel like watashi will take it though, hard to imagine him being 0-2.
DPP: Tomahawk vs
atomicllamas - Tomahawk was on my team for RoA Olympics and smashed EVERYONE in DPP UU. That said, llamas always seems to go crazy in this tier. Really minor edge, excited to see this live.
ADV:
BKC vs Finding True Love - I feel like I'm doing Bouff a massive disservice by not really knowing how to correctly predict these ADV games but like, it's BKC with Bouff support. No way he doesn't trash this pool.
Bebo Brand Barboaches (5) vs (3) Lake of Outrage Sandacondas
SS: Bushtush vs
odr - odr is always seemingly kinda unbeatable in these random tours and he absolutely smashed basa last week (I think), and while Bush is certainly quite a terror to face, idt he'll topple odr.
SS:
Gondra vs Highways - Bolding against Highways on request of
hs
SS: col49 vs
Sabella - Weird game but I have a lot more faith in booty to know the tier better and to pop off a little harder. col looked slightly lost in his game vs umbry last week but I think there was also some luck involved so idk.
SM:
vivalospride vs avarice - If viv goes negative in this tournament then idk what to say. avarice is good and made a mockery of me in UU Majors but I'm not sure if that'll translate to SM prowess.
ORAS:
Pearl vs Bobby Dagen - it's pearl. rodri is great at this tier, but it's still pearl.
BW:
EviGaro vs Amukamara - Evi is one of my favourite players to watch and I love her BW teams a ton. Liam smashes everyone in this tier, it's close, but my gut says Evi takes it on the back of bringing an unviable that has a god MU.
DPP:
TSR vs z0mOG - please win TSR please win TSR please win TSR
ADV: Plas vs
Gilbert arenas - Marcop owned as fuck last week and I feel like he'll continue to own as fuck this week. That double Nido team was so cool and I hope he brings more neat stuff like that.
gl all teams
