1. SoulWind vs 9. BKC - BKC is the clear favorite in DPP while, imo, Soulwind is the fairly clear favorite in BW. ORAS should be close, but Soulwind seems to exhibit more competency playing the tier than BKC at the end of the day. It could go either way tho - probably my favorite series this round and it is between two of the best players out there rn.
2. Ciele vs 7. Posho - Posho's favorited in ORAS and Ciele's favored in the other two, but I reckon Posho's very capable of winning any of the three tiers and his ORAS win seems very likely to me, so I think he'll find a way to win two of the three here. Probably a bit of an 'upset' or unlikely prediction, but I have faith in my boy!_!
4. Jimmy Turtwig vs 12. FLCL - This match-up actually is kinda shitty for FLCL because JTurt is probably the better of the two in BW and FLCL usually banks on BW+ORAS, but I don't think JTurt is anything special in DPP and FLCL should take ORAS, so should be close, but leaning FLCL.
6. dEnIsSsS vs 14. xtra$hine - simply put the better player.

Can we rearrange this so it's not SW vs BKC so early on?
kev soulwind will probably come down to luck. both of them are more than capable in BW. so thats probably a 50-50. id say oras is probably 60-40 ish sw and the same odds in bkcs favor in dpp. we'll see tho, probably the best series
ciele posho will be p good as well, ciele has been playing really well recently so id be surprised if he got upset. ive played posho a couple times tho and ive seen some replays that lead me to believe he is the luckiest man alive so he could do it
turtle man vs foolycooly comes down to whoever wins dpp i think
not sure how xtra keeps makin these finals but i expect him to bring some outright ridiculous squads so it comes down to how well denny prepares for niche threats

Welcome to Smogon, Will-I-am. I hope you'll be happy here.
That ORAS battle was a 132 turn 6-0. I guess that's something.
