After netting 4/5 correct guesses on both weeks I did predict, thereby showcasing my fantastic luck, it is time to aim for a perfect score

SS OU: Fc vs Ikaishi - For those wondering if I am ever going to stop glazing Ikaishi: no. Putting aside the obvious momentum he should have with that 3-0 start, I've seen his name in pairing threads more than I have seen Slowpoke Fan build around ZU mons. Ikaishi's dedication is really difficult to match right now, and a player achieving a dominant SPL run on the back of an entire year of borderline maniac grinding doesn't sound far-fetched imo. Regardless, this is the kind of story I want to see so let the Ikaishi show begin.

SS OU: ChrisPBacon vs entrocefalo - While Entro should not be underestimated, I'm going with the most experienced player on that one, ChrisPBacon's losses were both close (one could even say he was unlucky during his w3 game).

SS OU: damien the genius vs 1 True Lycan - I think damien has been performing better than his already great (2-1) record may indicate, only loosing an arguably favorable position on timer during week 2. Considering how he succesfully bounced back week 3, I am inclined to believe that he will keep the ball rolling this time. Small caveat, if Lycan brings another Diggersby type of mon, I will have to switch sides and start a new cult.

SS OU: Gtcha vs Mattz_ - I'm a Gtcha glazer even though I have no idea how his name is even supposed to be pronounced, someone please enlighten me

SS OU: Corazan vs MichaelderBeste2 - Predicting a german to win against a french might get me in trouble with my countrymen, but Mdb's just had too good of a showing for me not to bold him. With that being said, people, me included, might be sleeping on Cora and breaking his curse last week could just be what it takes to bring back his prime form. Hoping to be proven wrong on that one

After getting a brilliant Zero correct guess last week, it is redemption time:

SS OU: Mattz_ vs Corazan: In spite of claiming that people were sleeping on Corazan, I still bolded against him and we know how that turned out. I am thus flip flopping once again, hoping to finally be on the winning side of a Corazan pairing. Mattz_ will be a dangerous opponent, especially after finally claiming his first victim last week, but I don't think anyone will be able to stop Corazan after he's broken the curse.

SS OU: 1 True Lycan vs MichaelderBeste2: Both players have had some nice brings during this tournament and I am really looking forward to seeing what is currently beeing cooked (its not too late to bring in starmie please). I feel like Mdb's played really well so far in spite of suffering his first loss last week. Will keep bolding him.

SS OU: Ikaishi vs Gtcha: Is it a biased bold? Probably, but I won't be betting against Ikaishi during this tournament, especially against a player whose name I still can't pronounce. On a more serious note, I am expecting this game to be quite close, really hyped for this mu.

SS OU: entrocefalo vs Fc: Great stuff from both players last week, My money is still on Fc since he is the only one so far who has been able to stop the Ikaisweep. However, I've been really liking the Entrocefalo brings and he is definitely capable of taking this one.

SS OU: damien the genius vs ChrisPBacon: This season is looking grim for the ruiners and I am not sure how invested ChrisPBacon or any other player would be at this point. Not like I can put myself in his shoes anw, the only thing I've ever won was the Motistrat tournament alongside Le Don. On the other hand damien has been great so far in this season
