21/30 last week
Goldenrod Gengars (6) vs Cinnabar Charizards (2)
USUM:
Waszap vs martha - martha would need a really good mu to get a win here
USUM:
EviGaro vs Vodoom - they played in monotype wcop semis as well, and evi won so expecting history to repeat
USUM:
Chaitanya vs Alpha Rabbit - wouldn't predict against chait no matter who the opp is, plus rabbit's game was kinda wack last week
USUM:
dahli vs Harpp - it's a hot girl summer, no way peachy loses, and being negative is probably messing with Harpp's psyche
ORAS:
Finchinator vs maroon - maroon sucks and can't put his money where his mouth is as seen below
ORAS: Megazard vs
Izaya - picking against him so that he wins failed last time. Giving him the edge because he's had more success
BW: KuraiTenshi26 vs
North - North has had a dominant season, reminding everyone that he is a top bw player. Kurai has never lost to the same person twice tho, so can't count him out
BO3:
Feitan the steam vs Trichotomy - A match between the two underrated players that I hype the most, and they both boast strong 5-1 records. Should be really fun as they are very familiar with each other and will be very motivated to get a win over the other. Picking Feitan because I think he's a better player and has better wins in the tour
Lots of fun matchups, as there should be in a semis.
Most interesting game: Feitan vs Trich
Really looking forward to see what these two friends bring against each other.
-------------
Hearthome Honchkrows (5) vs Two Island Tapus (3)
USUM:
1 True Lycan vs MetaRiolu7 - Surprised to see Lycan here but he's one of the best monotype players, hard to bet against him. Also I saw Namranan telling Meta what he did wrong in a game today, not good looks
USUM:
Clearly vs Pak - really nice pairing. Clearly gets the edge for being undefeated and I think his motivation will be high because it's his first playoffs in so many years. Pak is obviously not to be underestimated tho, this will be a close one
USUM: Star vs
FLCL - both of them are undoubtedly two of the best pokemon players on the site, but they've had a rough tour thus far. Giving FLCL the edge because his record is slightly better
USUM:
Bitana vs trash - Bit has had a really good tour
ORAS:
Jase The World vs Catalystic - Jase has done well and is obviously very hungry to prove people wrong. Bit disappointed we don't get to see him vs Sae since both are 5-1. Cata has been delivering this tour too, so I wouldn't count him out
ORAS: Crashy vs
Cell - Cell seems to be getting back into things after a big slump in the middle of the season. He'll probably have additional support in prepping and testing from friends that were eliminated
BW:
Sabella vs dcae - I don't think he's lost a BW game all tour? Whether it be just BW or in the Bo3 slot
BO3: Oberyn vs
Sae - Oberyn is more familiar with the older gens I think, which is unfortunate for him because Sae definitely has the advantage in those
A bit surprised by some of the honchkrows choices, mainly the Oberyn in bo3 instead of Lycan. I guess being knocked out by Magma in mono gens has scarred Lycan from ever playing bo3 again. Should be a fun series between the two teams.
Most interesting game: Clearly vs Pak
One of the best possible USM matchups in the whole tour, let's not get a lopsided mu please
Good luck to all the teams, let's have some good games!
