in this version of snake predicts, i will not be predicting who wins but which matchups will end up being dead games, courtesy of hariyana grande . for all intents and purposes, activity wins will also count towards dead games. that being said, here is the one and only edition of dead game predicts!

bolded matchups are the ones I think will deadgame

SS: Amane Misa vs Monky25
SS: Fc vs Lyss
SS: udongirl vs ausma
SM: Pak vs etern
ORAS: Ayaka vs Micciu
BW: Fakee vs Amukamara
DPP: RealJester vs Seldanna
ADV: fatty vs Parpar
GSC: Inder vs Sage
RBY: Unowndragon vs Shellnuts

good to see the current top two seeds duke it out. i expect all games to be played because both teams are obviously looking to lock themselves into the playoffs, and differential could end up mattering if the series doesn't end in a tie. the only way i see any dead games possibly happening is if the playoff elimination scenarios for both teams here end up being impossible.

deadgames expected: 0
SS: Mimilucha vs Allen-xia
SS: lax vs Moutemoute
SS: Brexus vs Armada
SM: Raptor vs Adaam
ORAS: pinorska vs Snowy
BW: Bushtush vs eden
DPP: snaga vs innovamania
ADV: Garay oak vs Heysup
GSC: Finchinator vs vani
RBY: phoopes vs Torchic

this matchup is for sure a wildcard, but ideally the volcanions try to guarantee themselves a playoff spot by winning out. how many deadgames happen probably depend on if volcanions can close it out fast, but there's certainly a possibility some of the TDKs won't have any motivation to play.

deadgames expected: 2
SS: dunoks vs pdt
SS: Specs vs Corazan
SS: xujing691691 vs TJ
SM: vivalospride vs robjr
ORAS: Santu vs Chaos23333
BW: EviGaro vs Punny
DPP: Lily vs Spl4sh
ADV: Bouff vs BigFatMantis
GSC: col49 vs Raichy
RBY: juoean vs AM

two more playoff teams in the middle of the pack. if the wurmples manage to win before all the games are played, then there's no reason for the rest of the games to be played, hence a strong possibility for meaningless games to be deadgamed.

deadgames expected: 1
SS: avarice vs passion
SS: KM vs Luirromen
SS: DugZa vs Celebiii
SM: Beraldinho vs Highways
ORAS: Elfuseon vs Ninja
BW: Lunala vs dingbat
DPP: hariyana grande vs MrAldo
ADV: Expulso vs A Hero's Destiny
GSC: Ika Ika Musume vs holly
RBY: stunner047 vs emma

similar situation to the volcanions vs tdks; although teas don't have a guaranteed path into playoffs, beating us would be optimal for them. expect some deadgames to happen if we manage to knock them out of contention.

deadgames expected: 2

:Scyther: WEEK 7 INDIVIDUAL MANTIS RANKINGS :Scizor:
(approved by Smogon, UU, Nintendo, PBS, and viewers like you!)

The time has finally come for the final chapter... Welcome to the Week 7 Mantis Rankings for each tier! This will be the final installment for this season, as these are only done for regular season weeks with a full roster of players. I hope you have all enjoyed them thus far. So, here I will rank those who are currently starting this week in 1-10 for SS and 1-4 for other tiers. All of the Wurmples are obviously #1 in their respective tiers so I won't be ranking them here since it would be unfair to everyone else.

The rankings are mostly based on a combination of track record + potential for explosion and/or implosion, as well as general performance last 6 weeks and in other tours. I do watch the games, so it's not as simple as Ws and Ls, it's the passion you put into that L that transforms it into a W in your heart.
