Me & waffle04 aka the most accurate OLT predictors semis predicts (current record: 47/69)

Separation vs Alhen (55-45) (Separation indirectly caused Leng to get tourbanned, which is crazy, so we gonna favor our chinese protagonist here)

Ewin vs Vert (40/60) (Vert's teams have been really ahead of the curve + he got plot armor, so I don't see him losing)

Interesting notes:

+ This is the first ever SV OLT that will feature a finalist that qualified during Cycle 1 (Vert or Ewin)
+ If either Ewin or Vert wins this OLT, this will be the first time ever a player has won OLT when qualified during the first cycle.
+ If there's another SV OLT next year, and if Sep loses, there is an opportunity for SV OLT to have a winner for each cycle.
+ If Vert wins in semis, this will be his second OLT finals in 3 years, and his 4th individuals finals that features SV OU.
+ If Vert loses, there will be a new player features on the Smogon Hall of Fame.

Separation vs Alhen
Ewin vs Vert

Separation's probably favoured in that matchup, but Alhen has looked really solid against an even tougher slate of opponents (wins over clean, Storm Zone, Giannis, ima and Originality vs xavgb, TDNT, Typh, Rumble, Gray). Plus, if Alhen wins I have a fun post planned for the finals and everyone's already pointed out the fun part about a Separation-Vert finals.

Yeah, I think Vert's gonna win, but I think it's worth pointing out that Ewin literally has the most SV OU sheet wins this year (13), with Attribute, oldspicemike and Fusien all sitting at 12. That's good for 3rd in overall sheet wins this year, behind only Santu (18) and zS (14), and tied with Finchinator. Combine that with hellom/clean/zS/3d/Tace wins (which is honestly probably the strongest set of wins of anyone left here; Vert's beaten clean, JJ09LIE, TDNT, heileone and MRH1102) and you have genuinely one of the most impressive resumes you could write up that's still getting completely overshadowed by their opponent.
