1. reyscarface vs. 16. Sergio Aguero - rey is currently in zen mode. He's been doing well in tournies and #1 seed speaks for itself. He'll win all of the 3 tiers provided he doesn't trip up on his own ego. (ADV, DPP, BW)
2. Bloo vs. 15. Bluewind - Highlight match of the round. Bluewind is very good at DPP, while Bloo is very good at BW. It comes down to ADV which is any of their game depending on their teams and how they play on the day. I have a feeling that Bluewind is going to reveal something in the last few turns that will sweep Bloo, so I'll go with him. (ADV, DPP)
3. Malekith vs. 14. LizardMan - LizardMan has notably been playing better recently, but Malekith will give him a run for his money. I think LizardMan will win ADV, and Male DPP. They're both even in BW, but I'm calling Malekith to get a crucial crit that will be fatal for Lizard. (ADV, BW)
4. M Dragon vs. 13. Ciele - Another good game. Ciele has the advantage in BW and is pretty good in ADV, but M Dragon knows old gens like religion and will use something unorthodox to mess Ciele up. It comes down to DPP where they're both even. It will be a long and bloodthirsty battle, but M Dragon will fall to a Hydro Pump crit from Starmie. (DPP, BW)
5. ToF vs. 12. idiotfrommars - ToF has a clean advantage in DPP, while IFM has one in BW. However, ToF has done exceptionally well in ADV this tour, so I think he's gonna take it. (ADV, DPP)
6. DracoMalfoy vs. 11. SoulWind - Draco is like M Dragon in that he has a lot of experience in ADV. He's picked up DPP well quite quickly and I can see him doing the same for BW. I haven't seen anything spectacular from SoulWind, so I think this is going to be a 3-0 for Harry Potter's Best Friend. (ADV, DPP, BW)
7. Cristal vs. 10. Steiner - I've only seen Steiner play BW, Cristal is more well rounded (ADV, DPP)
8. kd24 vs. 9. McMeghan - While I think kd has the edge in DPP due to more experience, McMeghan excels at BW and knows his stuff well in ADV. (ADV, BW)
