Let's do some old old gen predicts

BW: Finchinator vs hellom
DPP: Hubriz vs vivalospride
ADV: Medeia vs Parpar
obvs

BW: Rewer vs Tack - dog
DPP: A plague doc vs Real FV13 - great results so far
ADV: Shitrock enjoyer vs Xrn - idk this could go either way

BW: Oathkeeper vs Bughouse - BW Cup final replay is fun, I don't see a different result this time around
DPP: JabbaTheGriffin vs HSOWA - cool matchup with good records so far, have to side with the old PO squad
ADV: ima vs heysup - hype game of adv, honestly this is like 5050

BW: Lily vs SOMALIA - someone to get their first win
DPP: Rabia vs Monai - solid gamer
ADV: SEA vs goldmason - another cool adv game, seems to be on a roll atm
 
[will edit in my correct % ltr]

another week, another set of predictions by the goat


New Moon Absols (4) vs (6) Vibrant Vivillons - No surprise, absols haven’t been doing insanely good. If that’s the team with mada on it, bring back my goat if you wanna see playoffs.
SV: Drud vs Tuthur - this is a cool MU and I think both are of relatively equal skill levels. Drud should bring another cool offensive style team and Tuther will bring boring balance and lose but I don’t wanna see that happen
SV: Thiago Nunes vs Danny - to be real even if Danny wasn’t my friend and rlly good at the game I would bold him because I think it’s rlly funny to see 30k losing
SV: avarice vs Baloor - wtf is happening here, did either of them play yet? Vamos Dillon gl baloor
SV: mj vs Django - I recall seeing a bit of djangos game, someone got lucky either him or his opp vs an incin
SS: azogue vs zS - bleh who cares
SM: Xiri vs Ampha - bolding against Xiri is just hard to do, consistently goated
ORAS: Gondra vs Trade - see above
[edit: apparently gondra thinks im the worst player to touch the globe so lgi trade!!}
BW: Finchinator vs hellom - VAMOOOOOOS, my homie got robbed last week, if god is good we get our get back this week
DPP: Hubriz vs vivalospride - see oras
ADV: Medeia vs Parpar - I feel like I’ve seen this dudes name before… he might be on my advpl team or smth

The Rare Bone Cubones (1) vs (9) Fabled Nine-Tailed Foxes - wow y’all r gonna get smashed
SV: mncmt vs Floss - oddly boring MU, they’re both definitely good players and I don’t think they will do some dumb shit but I’m not necessarily on the edge of my seat over it
SV: Ninja vs GXE - lgi king imma see u on the finish line going X-0
SV: Skyiew vs frankjosh - goat check
SV: MarcosPr710 vs Taka - has Taka played a game yet? I wouldn’t bold them vs the more experienced players but I have literally no idea who their opponent is
SS: TDNT vs damien the genius - see DPP of last series
SM: toinha vs Kushalos - Idt Kushalos’ record is too great rn right? Regardless I don’t think it reflects how good of a player it is, if the record is fire then my fault lmfao
ORAS: kimerCat vs lax - better
BW: Rewer vs Tack - cool MU, I think tack has been doing better recently tho rite?
DPP: A plague doc vs Real FV13 - I’ve seen a plague docs name a lot recently in some other tiers too but they’re unproven in my head so I’m not gonna bold them
ADV: Shitrock enjoyer vs Xrn - goat check

Big Back Snorlaxes (3) vs (7) Diancies are Forever meh in my head the teams making play offs r alrdy cemented
SV: freezai vs Diamonds_realm - get the YouTube video out
SV: Stories vs robjr - gobjr hopefully you don’t get cheesed
SV: TheFranklin vs Ac1D_13 - while I was happy the see FC beat Franklin, he is still a phenomenal player who I expect to win most games
SV: roxie vs fish anemometer - better player
SS: twinkay vs Master Chief - wtf we doing anymore… cmon
SM: watashi vs ishtar - idrk how good Ishtar is as a player, and I know watashi is strong but idk how invested they are and how well they’re doing
ORAS: temp vs Kiyo - shrug
BW: Oathkeeper vs Bughouse - I’ve learned a new side of bughouse yesterday… no longer is he a teacher of BW and the savior of the youth but instead a spiteful person who detests 0-7 GW AND THEY HAXED MY FRIEND. Regardless they still seem funny and interesting so imma just bold them
DPP: JabbaTheGriffin vs HSOWA - this dude is great in PU at least so I assume he is cooking
ADV: ima vs heysup - cool mu, super interested to see what happens here, gl to both

New Moon Absols (4) vs (6) Vibrant Vivillons
SV: Drud vs Tuthur better teams, better nu player, drud will fall victim to some random zunderused pokemon
SV: Thiago Nunes vs Danny even in a meta he hates i think danny has showcased much better understanding of the tier than tnunes has
SV: avarice vs Baloor the loor doesnt know how to pilot scovillain so this is an easy bold against
SV: mj vs Django i am a django stan tbh
SS: azogue vs zS zS is one of like 4 users on this website that know ss nu
SM: Xiri vs Ampha xiri one of the better sm nu players in the pool, ampha is probably just loading an etern team
ORAS: Gondra vs Trade
BW: Finchinator vs hellom even when he's not 100% there, finch is always a tough bold against
DPP: Hubriz vs vivalospride best dpp in the pool lol
ADV: Medeia vs Parpar parpar has some very exploitable building trends that i think any cursory glance at will be easy enough to exploit for a positive matchup off rip. this could be the week he fixes a lot of that tho

The Rare Bone Cubones (2) vs (8) Fabled Nine-Tailed Foxes
SV: mncmt vs Floss there is a non-zero chance mence does not play this match
SV: Ninja vs GXE closer matchup than I think most will give credit to Ninja for
SV: Skyiew vs frankjosh
SV: MarcosPr710 vs Taka
SS: TDNT vs damien the genius the genius is in a slump but i think he can right it here. the teams have been fine enough all things considered
SM: toinha vs Kushalos if im completely honest here, i did not know toinha was a user on this website until just now. worst tour from kush i've prob ever seen but i cant justify bolding against him
ORAS: kimerCat vs lax
BW: Rewer vs Tack rewer prob been the biggest surprise of this tour for me (maybe not for others), i think he can keep the momentum up here
DPP: A plague doc vs Real FV13 simply load a build that doesn't lose to Dusclops and you will win
ADV: Shitrock enjoyer vs Xrn neither player is really prolific nor has showcased great adv knowledge this tour, xrn is a name bold more than anything

Big Back Snorlaxes (3) vs (7) Diancies are Forever
SV: freezai vs Diamonds_realm freezai is not "easy" to prep for but i feel he is someone that you can go into a week roughly knowing what to expect. diamonds is a pretty active builder so i will give him credit here to put in the work needed to have a good matchup at preview and he certainly is capable of outplaying
SV: Stories vs robjr rob hasn't been great this tour, some bad luck in some games but i feel his matchups have consistently sucked. idk if that's a prep issue or an sv nu issue or some other third thing, but imo stories will find a way to keep that trend going
SV: TheFranklin vs Ac1D_13 love ac1d but bolding vs franklin is hard
SV: roxie vs fish anemometer fish radiometer
SS: twinkay vs Master Chief i am willing to admit i have no stakes in this tier. twinkay has great support tho
SM: watashi vs ishtar prob a weird bold but i think ishtar has proven she's solid at this tier and fooly im like 99% sure is recycling teams from when sm or ss was the current gen. there's high chances for some egregious matchup to be given to ishtar imo
ORAS: temp vs Kiyo KID KIYOOOOOOOO
BW: Oathkeeper vs Bughouse
DPP: JabbaTheGriffin vs HSOWA
ADV: ima vs heysup adv highlight matchup for sure. gonna lean heysup just because of this tour performance lol
