Tournament National Dex RU Invitational - Round 2

jawabarat vs Marss Barss - jawa is thanos
Winner of (Velcroc vs spoo) vs mrfraud - any of these 3 could take it and wouldn’t be surprised, spoo is tuffbob tho
THE_CHUNGLER vs Winner of (Rafadude vs salmonelephant) - chungler has a nice cook but SElephant is proven
Hoops vs Winner of (Interlinked vs kimer) - hoops gave his last opp belt, could go any of their way will come down to cooks
LB vs sealoo - fight me in beastcord. I promise I won’t lose.
3MoreMinutes vs pannu - no comment
db vs Danbear02 - db02 > db67

seed vs LBN - wins unless he overcooks which is likely
Dead by Daylight vs Big Chungus irl - ts mu = tuff final boss
Loser of (Velcroc vs spoo) vs Don Bork - Donny B brought some curious teams last round while Velcroc is the de facto tier leader
Loser of (Rafadude vs salmonelephant) vs Micaiah - better in game but rafadude could pull some wizard mus if he puts in the prep
Iride vs Medasus - Iride is tuffenheimer
ARTYMASION vs Loser of (Interlinked vs kimer) - tier knowledge will get him the win I think
SapoDaG30 vs JeoZ - close one but sapo in game has been inspirational
about15gals vs dewfew - about15tuff

Looking forward to some good games! :{D
 
Winners

Winner of (Velcroc vs spoo)  vs  mrfraud - This one is really hard to predict before seeing Velcroc and spoo's game - how seriously is each one taking it and how are their builds looking? For now I will do the safe bold of mrfraud who hopefully doesn't bring my double meteor beam ho technology again...

seth  vs  Runo - Highlight mu, both won super hard fought sets. I was really impressed with Runo keeping it together after that diabolical g1 and closing out the next two so I'll back him to keep the momentum going.
THE_CHUNGLER  vs  Winner of (Rafadude vs salmonelephant) - I think chungler is the best pilot here but both of Rafa/salmon are likely to exploit some of chungler's samey builds. It will def be close af though, chungler's r1 was super comfortable.
Hoops  vs  Winner of (Interlinked vs kimer) I hadn't heard of Hoops prior to this tour but they took down Iride super impressively which has to count for something
LB  vs  sealoo- Another highlight mu, sealoo looked better r1 but maybe now that the classiest are out of whatever "smogon premier league" is, LB can focus on getting paid?
3MoreMinutes  vs  pannu - both won r1 comfortably but I really liked pannu's picks and 3mm won against... scarf florges? As my dad says about football "you can only beat what's in front of you" but pannu more proven so far imo.
db  vs  Danbear02 - I appreciate regidragoat immensely but pidgeot in the big 26 is not him. Still not seen any gaming from Dan but he seemed disappointed not to get to play Roginald so he probably is at least vaguely motivated.

Losers

seed  vs  LBN - better
Dead by Daylight  vs  Big Chungus irl - I think this is another highlight mu; both are long time players of the tier. I want to see Chungus get his redemption because in ndrucord he was gutted after his loss to seth but also analytical about what to do better next time.
Loser of (Velcroc vs spoo)  vs  Don Bork - I wasn't a fan of bork's teams or play in r1
Loser of (Rafadude vs salmonelephant)  vs  Micaiah - pulling Micaiah in the first round of losers bracket is some diabolical luck and I want to see more cookery from the mind that brought ancient power togekiss ho but had the gall to call my picks dogshit unviable
Iride  vs  Medasus - The other final boss of losers bracket r2. I can't see my legion manager going 0-2 sorry meda
ARTYMAISON  vs  Loser of (Interlinked vs kimer) - scarf florges
SapoDaG30 vs JeoZ - I would love to see more sapo this tour but JeoZ has the entire chargers cord worth of jawabarat and heatranator cookery to pull from.
about15gals vs dewfew - I think about will bounce back and I don't know who dewfew is
 
Winners
jawabarat vs Marss Barss - Hard not to bold the #1 ndru player of the last few tts
spoo  vs  mrfraud - Great mu, I think both have a good read on the meta. Bolding spoo bc his w1 performance was more impressive (mostly off g1)
seth  vs  Runo - both had strong performances but Runo did it vs Micaiah and owns this tier. seth thinks crobat is S+
THE_CHUNGLER  vs  Rafadude - the chungler
Hoops  vs  Interlinked - Hoops seems good at the game and it's rare that someone beats Iride without being successful
LB  vs  sealoo - I bold sealoo in national dex, this is a hl though
3MoreMinutes  vs  pannu - pretty sure both are bad?
db  vs  Danbear02 - the db rivalry, I rate both but Daniel Bear will probably bring stuff that beats Regidrago and Registeel and any other Regi too ig

Losers
seed  vs  LBN - LBN = good at ndru. seed has had it rough in this tier, I'm hoping they win ngl
Dead by Daylight  vs  Big Chungus irl - Both looked pretty solid r1 despite losing, I liked DBD's teams more though.
Velcroc  vs  Don Bork - Velcroc is not losing to Carbink
salmonelephant  vs  Micaiah - This mu is way too good to be an early elimination match, I bold Micaiah vs anyone after ndcl
Iride  vs  Medasus - Iride is good
ARTYMAISON  vs  kimer - Not sure about this one, I think Arty has a good shot if he loads stuff like our g2 rather than like our g1.
SapoDaG30 vs JeoZ - Looking forward to this one too, Sapo is more active in this tier but Jeoz has good support + is a good player. Close one
about15gals vs dewfew - NDCL Winner about2-1gals here to collect a fat W (I'm not familiar with dewfew's game)
