Spreadsheet | Administrative Decisions | Replays and Statistics
  • Follow all rules listed here.
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for hosts to make decisions for activity calls when we can see what went down with scheduling.
  • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to the hosts or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
  • Substitutions may be made after a week has started. When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.
  • If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.
  • Replays are mandatory. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, they contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.
  • Managers: Please send me your lineups in the same format that I used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly.

I realized after I sat down to do predicts that I have not been following this closely enough to accurately predict anything, but I tried. Explanations are half retcons for my gut instincts and half 'i checked the sheet.'

:haunter: Hauntails (5) vs (3) BBQ Squad :pignite:
SV: Ivar57 vs JeoZ (better record)
SV: Frito vs 5Dots (5-0dots)
SV: Nashrock vs Horii (idk, the sheet doesn't really back this one up but I'm sticking with it)
SV: Hax and Momola vs maybca (2nd strongest record on the team. I think this predict underrates hax tho)
SV: Stareal vs zastra (better record)
SS: The Strap vs Kabilapok (ive heard The Strap is goated)
SM: MemphisDepay vs WMAR (idk 5-3 sounded right and this was the last one I did. They have similar sheet records)
ORAS: Havocknight vs One Last Kiss (this one could be a tossup but it wont be because I don't want to predict tiebreaks)
 
:haunter: Hauntails (5) vs (3) BBQ Squad :pignite:
SV: Ivar57 vs JeoZ - Both players are fine but i think Ivar is gonna have a better MU
SV: Frito vs 5Dots - 5Dots is heavily favored in this pairing, he should be fine if he does not overcook
SV: Nashrock vs Horii - Horii is doing very good atm in NFE and looks like they were more active than Nashrock this tour
SV: Hax and Momola vs maybca - Maybca is the better player
SV: Stareal vs zastra - One sided pairing, Stareal will win
SS: The Strap vs Kabilapok - same as above
SM: MemphisDepay vs WMAR - Memphis + Quagg core has been doing well, WMAR struggled a little more this tour
ORAS: Havocknight vs One Last Kiss - i think Havock has better teams and is gonna outplay

If it goes to tiebreak i think Hauntails pick SM and BBQ pick SV and Hauntails will win 2-1 SM + SV vs 1 SV win for BBQ
 
Hauntails (2) vs (5) BBQ Squad :pignite:
SV: Ivar57 vs JeoZ
SV: Frito vs 5Dots
SV: Nashrock vs Horii
SV: Hax and Momola vs maybca french power
SV: Stareal vs zastra idk, both are strong so it's 50/50
SS: The Strap vs Kabilapok french power again!
SM: MemphisDepay vs WMAR
ORAS: Havocknight vs One Last Kiss
kabilapok is american lol
 
:haunter: Hauntails (4) vs (4) BBQ Squad :pignite:
SV: Ivar57 vs JeoZ : Better player, better builder, better prep, if Ivar doesn't troll, he will win his game. Jeoz will need a secret tech to surprise and beat Ivar.
SV: Frito vs 5Dots : One of the best player of this tournament, top build, top prep, top IG, can pay your bills and bring you a coffee. Frito needs to learn a magic trick to beat 5Dots.
SV: Nashrock vs Horii : 2 similars players, about their score and IG. I bet a coin on Horii because he has a better support.
SV: Hax and Momola vs maybca : Well, they played while I was writing this post, soooo. But I was predict on maybca because he has a better IG, build some and more experience than his opponent.
SV: Stareal vs zastra : Top player, top in game, good building. Zastra needs to shine during his prep if he wants to beat one of the best SV player.
SS: The Strap vs Kabilapok : The frenchiest americain vs a very good player. It might surprise some people, but Kabilapok already shine in the past, and with Maybca's support, I believe Kabilapok can beat The Strap
SM: MemphisDepay vs WMAR : They didn't play last week, but MemphisDepay has a better ratio.
ORAS: Havocknight vs One Last Kiss : Probably an underestimated match for me, with 2 similar players, but I believe Havocknight will beat again One Last Kiss

Wesh alors



Bon, maintenant j'ai votre attention, je peux lancer des prédictions un poil plus précis.

:haunter: Hauntails (4) vs (4) BBQ Squad :pignite:
SV: Ivar57 vs JeoZ : Son IG est juste un cran au dessus, et s'il ne décide pas à troll comme contre moi, il a toute ses chances, côté prep, team et de son niveau de jeu pour battre son adversaire.
SV: Frito vs 5Dots : 5Dots est un top top joueur de mon point de vue, top prep, top team, et top ingame, il est très difficile de le faire tomber. La meilleure chance de Frito est de compter sur une énorme prep avec une tech non connue par 5Dots, et bon courage pour trouver ça.
SV: Nashrock vs Horii : Deux joueurs aux scores, teams et IG moyens, je mets juste une petite pièce sur Horii qui a le potentiel d'avoir un meilleur support.
SV: Hax and Momola vs maybca : J'étais en train d'écrire la prédict mais les deux ont décidé de rfn doooonc... Mais maybca était favori dans tous les cas, meilleur building et IG à mes yeux.
SV: Stareal vs zastra : Son bagage théorique n'est pas aussi élevé que celui de 5Dots, mais Stareal est à minima 2 crans au dessus de zastra, et il faudra une belle surprise en prep pour déstabiliser et gagner contre Stareal.
SS: The Strap vs Kabilapok : Etonnemment, je mets une pièce sur Kabilapok, j'ai l'impression que pas mal de monde oublie qu'il a déjà brillé en SV et SS NFE avant les DLC, et avec un potentiel support de maybca, il y a matière pour battre The Strap, excellent en jeu, mais "juste" bon en prep/building.
SM: MemphisDepay vs WMAR : Avantage MemphisDepay par son ratio actuel.
ORAS: Havocknight vs One Last Kiss : Même si je ne connais pas l'ORAS NFE, ca sera probablement l'un des matchs les plus serrés, avantage Havocknight, qui a tapé son oppo tout juste une semaine avant.

S'il vous plait, pas de tiebreak, je veux vous taper la semaine prochaine.
