[Blue_Star]

USA East (6) vs. Spain (2)

ADV: BKC vs M Dragon - sry kevin u are still my brother but mariano is the best ADV player that is active, second only to tama o_o
DPP: august vs Malekith - both are really solid players, but i bet the notorious A.U.G. will pull a gimmick and win
BW: CTC vs Mr. Reptile - don't know the other one ?_?
XY: gr8astard vs Ecuacion - ecuacion has been playing pretty well so far, but hugo is one of the best teambuilders and a solid player as well.
XY: aim vs reiku - didn't know this guy until recently, but checked his pretty cool yt channel and he plays really well too.
XY: bro fist vs Light The Thunder - my nigga, the pkmn lord himself can win even if he misses 30 focus blasts, gg
XY: Sinclair vs SoulWind - soulwind has showed consistency in XY, unlike jj. solid match tho
XY: dragonuser vs Alastor Law - again, don't know the other one

USA West (0) vs. Brazil (9) - ez noobs brazil will go 8-0 but having me on the squad counts as an extra point ~n_n~

1.) USA East vs. 5.) Spain

ADV: BKC vs M Dragon - this match is gonna be really good regardless of who wins, but M Dragon has a better knowledge of the meta game
DPP: august vs Malekith - another good match up ._., aug is a lord tho so he has this win in the bag
BW: CTC vs Mr. Reptile - how is this even fair? As long as CTC doesn't get haxxed or choke, it's a win for east

XY: Sinclair vs SoulWind - this match is closer than the other two good ones so I legit have no idea who will win, jj and sw are both solid af so will be nice to watch this

[Jirachee]

Hide

1.) USA East (7) vs. 5.) Spain (1)

ADV: BKC vs M Dragon - BKC's cheap tactics, such as leading Suicune, stall teams featuring unexpected Pokemon, and multiple trappers will surely prevail over M Dragon's solid yet predictable teams.
DPP: august vs Malekith - An excellent game, I believe that august's love for teams as old as BKC's girlfriends will help him conquer the Spanish wonder.
BW: CTC vs Mr. Reptile - I, as well as many others, thank USA East's management for slotting CTC in a tier in which he won't use incredibly boring Stall.
XY: gr8astard vs Ecuacion - gr8astard's advanced tactics and brilliant teams will allow him to win.
XY: aim vs reiku - While aim is probably the superior player, losing to him risks you getting uploaded to youtube which should motivate reiku to bring his best performance.
XY: bro fist vs Light The Thunder - bro fist is one of the very few users who were capable of besting the almighty Garchompfan26 in combat. He has also shown that he is capable of overcoming any amount of luck he faces, so Light The Thunder will have a very tough challenge.
XY: Sinclair vs SoulWind - While SoulWind is exceptionally strong, Sinclair has shown that he is capable of winning XY OU matches on a consistent basis - unless of course, his opponent brings a counterteam.
XY: dragonuser vs Alastor Law - dragonuser is currently undefeated in World Cup, and I think it would be very surprising if he lost this round.

2.) USA West (0) vs. 6.) Brazil (0)

ADV: undisputed vs DracoMalfoy - I believe that many will agree with me; I'd rather see this matchup in DPP.
DPP: Philip7086 vs Hantsuki - Hantsuki's hax teams have been able to overcome last round's opponent, however, Philip's last round match showcases why you shouldn't rely on luck elements to defeat him.
BW: reyscarface vs yan[sogeking] - rey's World Cup performance so far has impressed me and as long as he is prepared for sun and Rotom-W balance teams he should be fine.
XY: ben gay vs Dekzeh - Dekzeh has been one of the most consistent XYers so far and his opponent is rather new to the tournament scene so this is an easy choice for me.
XY: Valentine vs Destiny Device - While Destiny Device had a great record in Round 1, Valentine's Stall CTs should be able to overcome him.
XY: Dice vs Hill - Dice is, as he would say himself, hot as fuck.
XY: King vs KratosMana - jason has shown Exceptional XY Skill since the beginning of tournament.
XY: Bloo vs papai noel - King Bloo

[blarajan]

the east victory was basically predetermined tbh

 

[Mizuhime]

1.) USA East vs. 5.) Spain

ADV: BKC vs M Dragon - this will be a close match, but M Drag is very predictable :[
DPP: august vs Malekith - aug is gay
BW: CTC vs Mr. Reptile - based lord back in his best tier should be easy w
XY: gr8astard vs Ecuacion - hugooooooooooo
XY: aim vs reiku - joey is pretty good at this game
XY: bro fist vs Light The Thunder - juan is also pretty good at this game
XY: Sinclair vs SoulWind - should be a very close game actually, looking forward to it
XY: dragonuser vs Alastor Law - he plays LoL and is still good at this game...

2.) USA West vs. 6.) Brazil

ADV: undisputed vs DracoMalfoy - good match, gotta go with draco tho
DPP: Philip7086 vs Hantsuki - should be a gg
BW: reyscarface vs yan[sogeking] - it's soge, he will find a way to win

XY: Dice vs Hill
XY: King vs KratosMana - can't use deo offense anymore
XY: Bloo vs papai noel - sorry elodin but lol

go east *-* - I think west vs BR is going to come down to how Draco and Hantsuki play

 

[Dave]

Spain's going to be a tough team. I considered them one of the better teams coming into wcop. Mdragon, Malekith, and Soulwind is a solid core and I think Spain's key to winning is how they perform and setting their pace. However, I think East is solid in every position and it'll be a fun match to see. I don't agree with Soulwind in XY, BW is where he made the name for himself and was his best tier, but we'll see. :)

West vs Brazil is going to be awesome. Somehow phil put together quite a good squad. But Brazil imo was a powerhouse coming into wcop, I believe it will be decided by the old gen vs old gen matchups which are exciting. The highlights for me though is Ben Gay vs Dekzeh, I value Dekzeh pretty high as a player. Consistent in most tiers, I believe Tama is the only guy who could have actually outmatched him for the ADV Slot but even then, Dekzeh in ADV and Tama in DPP equally would be threatening. However, Valentine vs Destiny Device will be awesome imo. Been watching Destiny and he's been an impressive rookie, I don't think Val can sleep on this guy. :)

Hoping for a 4-4 with an XY tie break in which Dekzeh/Destiny play vs Bloo/maybe King if he wins his game/or Val. :)

SLAYER

USA West (5) vs. Brazil (2)

ADV: undisputed vs DracoMalfoy - this will be super tight

BW: reyscarface vs yan[sogeking] - with dices Optimal Builds, the linear sogeking stands no chance!

All I hear is Spain is real good blah blah. They're obviously good enough to make it to the semifinals, but my team is the best. The realest best. You know, blah blah blah we 'gon win 8-0 easy since everyone is solid like an erect penis. Spain can't win against us autofellatio East fellas.

Don't tote your own horns too much, dear Stone_Cold. A little show of class is appreciated.
