Pledicts:
Goldenrod Gholdengos (6) vs (4) Raging Rashirams
SS: hex vs Hiro80223001
hex is having a strong tournament while Hiro80223001 hasn't been so hot; however, Hiro80223001 did notch a pretty dominant win last week, so that momentum could lead to an upset.
SS: Lacks vs Mollymiltoast
Tough to bold against the crazy phenom Lacks. Mollymiltoast also has had some pretty big SS wins this tour so I think this'll be a close one.
SS: Ainzcrad vs veti
I'm not too familiar with Ainzcrad's game, while, if memory serves, veti is a dedicated grinder. I'm gonna guess that veti'll have the advantage in this finals matchup.
SM: Career Ended vs Fdmw
Another close one, but Career is very powerful so I think he'll win.
SM: Charmriah vs Eelektrone
I got folded once by Eelektrone so on that basis I'll bold him. Did I already mention that these are really close matchups?
SM: evakiyama! vs Astoria
Unfortunately I am in the dark about Astoria, and evakiyama! seems to be pretty good at whatever tier they're playing, so I'm gonna bold them.
ORAS: AM vs Django
Very solid performance in this tour by Django. AM has literally centuries of experience and major sauce when it comes to ORAS though, ergo I predict an upset.
ORAS: Hacker vs Insou
I wanted to tribally bold Insou but Hacker's sustained commitment to ORAS over the course of the tournament leads me to believe he has the advantage in this matchup.
ORAS: Maxisc23 vs Avendesora
Despite being familiar with Avendesora's penchant for building fun stuff, the game differential between him and Maxisc23 this tournament leaves the outcome inconclusive for me. Could go either way here but I'll guess Avendesora.
Masters BO3: SKC44 vs Horii
SKC44 importantly managed to crack his loss streak in semifinals, but I'm a bit more familiar with Horii's game and recall him being more consistent.
Congratulations to both teams for making it to finals, and best of luck to all!
