I am clearly clueless, so this feels more like gambling (don't take them seriously) Part 1

:delibird: Degenerate Delibirds (5) vs (5) Whirland Kingdras :kingdra:
ADV Ubers: sugarhigh vs gostop - Sugar, how you get so fly?
ADV OU: Empo vs eden - Typhlosion is cooler than Grovyle
ADV OU: ez vs JoJ - gg ez
ADV OU: watashi vs Void - Void staff is broken
ADV OU BO3: mayopockets vs Don Eduardo - I like Don Quijote
ADV UU: Parpar vs robjr - Parparas is a Greek olive business, so I approve
ADV RU: JabbaTheGriffin vs SpoiledBerries - Kareem Abdul JabbaTheGriffin
ADV NU: ima vs Triangles - Triangles are polygons with 3 layers of Spikes and 3 critical hits
ADV PU: Montreal vs THE_CHUNGLER - Chungus is legendary
ADV LC: naere vs Alder ST - I think I have played naere before and I lost, so they are surely amazing at the game

:salamence: Sky Pillar Salamences (5) vs (5) Spartoi Elites :gastly:
ADV Ubers: Ajencis vs FatFighter2 - Probably the only prediction that makes sense. FatFighter went crazy last advpl
ADV OU: Siglut vs Kollin7 - I am Kolling it
ADV OU: AC7 vs gorgie - Uncle Iroh my goat
ADV OU: Voyager vs Johnald - Surely a spacecraft has the edge
ADV OU BO3: Kristyl vs Caloom - Oi Hughie
ADV UU: BigFatMantis vs Shiba - I will bold BFM when they agree that bpass is unhealthy and cringe in gsc uu
ADV RU: col49 vs HANTSUKI - Col de Turini is beatiful
ADV NU: shiloh vs Bughouse - Can't think of anything, flipped a coin
ADV PU: Monai vs Drud - Based on last advpl performance
ADV LC: Hacker vs Raichy - I know Hacker plays LC

:chinchou: Aquacorde Anglerfish (5) vs (5) Locked-In Magnetons :magneton:
ADV Ubers: qsns vs Charmriah - I will always bold my MG2 and MonoPet legend
ADV OU: Quarante8 vs violet river - My sources telling me that violet river is really good at ADV OU, so I trust
ADV OU: evakiyama! vs Pak - GSC UU rising star and surely ADV OU rising star now
ADV OU: Zerkas vs Lady Bug - Zerkas is nice
ADV OU BO3: Hclat vs mielke - The mielke way
ADV UU: Hydronics vs Amity - I am just a fan (why not NU smh)
ADV RU: SEA vs Fogbound Lake - SEA claims that mttar is unviable in mg2, so there is that
ADV NU: MeEsSm vs Stories - Twist Mountaineers 2024
ADV PU: Lily vs mind gaming - Last advpl performance
ADV LC: uppa vs Shing - I constantly destroy Shing in DPP OU ladder (trust), but ADV LC is Shing LC

:wingull: A Flock of Smeargulls (4) vs (6) Goo Goo Claydolls :claydol:
ADV Ubers: Magician vs Lhions - Undefeated last year, streak will continue
ADV OU: Zpanther19 vs Sheik : - Dank Darkrais 2024 + DPP CAP enjoyer
ADV OU: LpZ vs Sato07 - This guy named LpZ...
Screenshot_29.png

ADV OU: ojr vs coco - Rook is clutch
ADV OU BO3: CyberOdin✝ vs BIG WILL - Dank Darkrais 2024
ADV UU: Estarossa vs Heysup - Only mu that I am well aware of both players gameplay. I give the edge to Heysup in this tier
ADV RU: Baddy vs Eeveeto - Crocanaw + CA is too good
ADV NU: Django vs Real FV13 - I would bold fv anyway for obvious gsc uu reasons, but I am quite sure fv is good in this tier anyway
ADV PU: feen vs gulch - That's a coinflip, I got nothing
ADV LC: Quinn vs BlackKnight_Gawain
Screenshot_30.png
 
my first time doing predictions i guess
ADV Ubers: sugarhigh vs gostop - I am not sure why I believe in sugarhigh, but I do
ADV UU: Parpar vs robjr - I have no idea where robjr will be obtaining ADV UU teams for this tournament but if he can acquire them, he can (and most likely will) go positive
ADV RU: JabbaTheGriffin vs SpoiledBerries - immensely curious to see how Jabba builds in this tier
ADV NU: ima vs Triangles - NU highlight of the tournament, going to give ima the edge because he loads much better teams on average

ADV Ubers: Ajencis vs FatFighter2 - unquestionably the best Ubers in the pool, should be an interesting game to see what FF2 brings
ADV UU: BigFatMantis vs Shiba - feels like a coinflip, should be a close game
ADV RU: col49 vs HANTSUKI - BFM's teams are pretty good, I don't know if HANTSUKI is gonna load like Arbok or some garbage
ADV NU: shiloh vs Bughouse - rozes generally puts up ultra positive records in these random low tiers

ADV Ubers: Magician vs Lhions - should be a close game, Magician's game should be pretty indicative of what he is going to look like this season
ADV UU: Estarossa vs Heysup - advpl god
ADV RU: Baddy vs Eeveeto - I don't know what Eeveeto jank looks like in this tier, but I guess we're about to find out
ADV NU: Django vs Real FV13 - Django made some very questionable teambuilding choices last year, will need to see improvement this year to believe
 
SEA ok here's my end of the bargain

hopefully i do this every week

ADV OU: Siglut vs Kollin7 - hype mu, two very strong players. I haven't seen too much of siglut, though, and kollin has played in quite a lot in the past year.
ADV OU: AC7 vs gorgie - never seen gorgie in adv, adam has been grinding the tier since last advpl so I'm bolding him pretty confidently here. could certainly be proven wrong though.
ADV OU: Voyager vs Johnald - johnald has been really good recently, if he wins this game is going 100+ turns.
ADV OU BO3: Kristyl vs Caloom - both very powerful players, I think kristyl is just better though.

ADV OU: Quarante8 vs violet river - I think river is just better at adv ou. if she loads a real team I think she'll win.
ADV OU: evakiyama! vs Pak - pak is a pretty steep mountain to climb in your first advpl game. love eva and rooting hard for her though.
ADV OU: Zerkas vs Lady Bug - later in this tour I'm expecting lady bug to get really good but I'm bolding zerkas while lady bug is still getting his sea legs.
ADV OU BO3: Hclat vs mielke - i want mielke to win this really badly but i can't in good faith bold against clat. maybe o cabra can outprep though

ADV OU: Zpanther19 vs Sheik : - zpanther is the stronger player imo, pretty confident he'll win this
ADV OU: LpZ vs Sato07 - i think sato is level or maybe a bit better at adv ou than lpz but lpz will have better support
ADV OU: ojr vs coco - this depends entirely on whether or not jr will load a real team. im choosing to believe he will so i think he's got this.
ADV OU BO3: CyberOdin✝ vs BIG WILL - big will will have team preview

ADV PU: Monai vs Drud
ADV LC: Hacker vs Raichy - I haven't seen either of them much on ADV LC, but Hacker didn't do badly last year.

:chinchou: Aquacorde Anglerfish (5) vs (5) Locked-In Magnetons :magneton:
ADV Ubers: qsns vs Charmriah
ADV OU: Quarante8 vs violet river
ADV OU: evakiyama! vs Pak
ADV OU: Zerkas vs Lady Bug
ADV OU BO3: Hclat vs mielke
ADV UU: Hydronics vs Amity
ADV RU: SEA vs Fogbound Lake
ADV NU: MeEsSm vs Stories
ADV PU: Lily vs mind gaming
ADV LC: uppa vs Shing - Shing is the meta game of Adv LC

:wingull: A Flock of Smeargulls (5) vs (5) Goo Goo Claydolls :claydol:
ADV Ubers: Magician vs Lhions
ADV OU: Zpanther19 vs Sheik :
ADV OU: LpZ vs Sato07
ADV OU: ojr vs coco
ADV OU BO3: CyberOdin✝ vs BIG WILL
ADV UU: Estarossa vs Heysup
ADV RU: Baddy vs Eeveeto
ADV NU: Django vs Real FV13
ADV PU: feen vs gulch
ADV LC: Quinn vs BlackKnight_Gawain - I haven't really seen much of Quinn in action but if we compare he has more knowledge of the game, Gawain seems like a good guy in ADV LC at least in the construction part and I'm sure Reggg is guiding him excellently but... I'm going by instinct and for me Quinn is going to win, although I see this as very even.
 
:delibird: Degenerate Delibirds (6) vs (4) Whirland Kingdras :kingdra:
ADV Ubers: sugarhigh vs gostop
ADV OU: Empo vs eden This is gonna be a really cool game, think it's either the highest or 2nd highest level of play in a non bo3 ou. I don't favor Empo by much because eden has been playing more of the tier recently.
ADV OU: ez vs JoJ
ADV OU: watashi vs Void
ADV OU BO3: mayopockets vs Don Eduardo I remember kenix loading standard stuff but piloting it very cleanly, which is generally a winning strategy in this tier but mayo + jabba can definitely cook up some demon squads to prepare. Another cool mu.
ADV UU: Parpar vs robjr
ADV RU: JabbaTheGriffin vs SpoiledBerries
ADV NU: ima vs Triangles Ima and my man shiloh ofc is the player to beat in this nu pool imo. I've liked his game in this tier since he picked it up a few advpls ago. That said don't sleep on Triangles he's done well in this tier previously and must be confident if he's self buying here and not ou.
ADV PU: Montreal vs THE_CHUNGLER
ADV LC: naere vs Alder ST

:chinchou: Aquacorde Anglerfish (5) vs (5) Locked-In Magnetons :magneton:
ADV Ubers: qsns vs Charmriah solid player with great support vs the up and comer. Think both players will put up a good performance this year, giving Charm the edge on experience.
ADV OU: Quarante8 vs violet river
ADV OU: evakiyama! vs Pak
ADV OU: Zerkas vs Lady Bug
ADV OU BO3: Hclat vs mielke Hclat selfbuy means the anglerfish will lose trust. In all seriousness this is really cool match, no idea how it will go but I feel like it's either 6 of the most reliable or most batshit teams of all time coming out.
ADV UU: Hydronics vs Amity
ADV RU: SEA vs Fogbound Lake
ADV NU: MeEsSm vs Stories https://tenor.com/en-CA/view/big-tr...ak-i-am-in-big-trouble-speak-big-gif-23519858
ADV PU: Lily vs mind gaming
ADV LC: uppa vs Shing

:wingull: A Flock of Smeargulls (7) vs (2) Goo Goo Claydolls :claydol:
ADV Ubers: Magician vs Lhions
ADV OU: Zpanther19 vs Sheik :
ADV OU: LpZ vs Sato07
ADV OU: ojr vs coco
ADV OU BO3: CyberOdin✝ vs BIG WILL Just gonna comment on all the ou matches here, I feel like the claydols have the better lineup on paper by a decent amount, but the smeargulls are going to be more motivated and have a much better prep core.
ADV UU: Estarossa vs Heysup
ADV RU: Baddy vs Eeveeto
ADV NU: Django vs Real FV13 very close match, going to depend on who drops hitmonchan for no reason who's more motivated I feel, and I give the edge to Django there but FV does have the better support.
ADV PU: feen vs gulch
ADV LC: Quinn vs BlackKnight_Gawain

Mences sweep btw ofc #SkyPillarPremierLeagueV
