Bote 6v6 vs Cant Predict Stupid
Vipa takes on his former teammates in what I expect to be an aggressive, fast-paced game. Should be close but I expect Cant Predict Stupid takes it.
POST GAME UPDATE: Bote's slow steady play gave them the W, 5-3.
kuwumbu jungle 2 vs Ie Sparkle Gang black
I expect a roll in kuwumbu's favour, but Sparkle Gang black's players could be good enough to prove me wrong.
POST GAME UPDATE: Boy did they ever prove me wrong... a 5-0 roll for Sparkle Gang Black, with roamer Megaboy nearly hitting 400 DPM.
Every Villain Is Lemons vs ChibiBoutique ESPORTS
Slight edge to EVIL, who have been looking good on gran so far.
POST GAME UPDATE: After dropping 2 fast rounds due to wiping at mid, EVIL pulled it back together (mostly on Faust's back).
Not Around Bears vs Egg Salad Dressing
I'll give it to ESD, who have been playing with their most recent pickup considerably longer than NAB have been scrimming with new scout Saturn. They are very evenly matched teams most days, though.
POST GAME UPDATE: a nailbiter of a game, with ESD taking it 5-4 in golden cap.
WuT dUdE vs The Lolipoppers
The big challenge for WuT dUdE this season will be getting topfragger Bwelp to push his mic button occasionally. I think the experience of Br0nze will give Lolipoppers the edge in this match, especially on a map like granary that's been in rotation since the dawn of time.
POST GAME UPDATE: Proven wrong yet again... Lots of back-and-forth, but WuT dUdE takes it in the end, due in part to Br0nze having less impact than expected & Lysol putting up great numbers.
Egg Salad Dressing vs WuT dUdE
Brimstone & gang should be able to win this one, WuT dUdE will have to play very coordinated to have a shot.
POST GAME UPDATE: ESD had a very good showing, especially from their scouts. That combined with a couple mistakes from WuT dUdE gave them a decisive win.
ChibiBoutique ESPORTS vs Hurricane Watch
Hurricane Watch has won the majority of scrims between these teams, and I anticipate that to translate into a match win for them. Chibi shouldn't be underestimated, though, and it might be a close game.
POST GAME UPDATE: Hurricane Watch took 2 slow rounds in the first half, then Chibi bizarrely all disconnected after readying up for the 2nd half
Cant Predict Stupid vs No Johns
No Johns narrowly avoided death when juicy forgot to pay up, but with that out of the way they are looking like a team to beat - rolling nearly everybody they scrim. I predict they take this match fairly smoothly.
POST GAME UPDATE: Didn't get the chance to watch it yet but I was correct.
Bob-omb Squad vs Shutup Mom im Bowflexing
The result of this match likely depends on if Bowflexing shows up and performs up to the standard we expect from these players. If they play like their scrims so far, Bob-omb will take it. Probably one of the closer games this week.
POST GAME UPDATE: I couldn't have been more wrong. An astounding 530 dpm from demoman fdwdo kind of sums the game up.
