SS: zS vs EternalSnowman
More experience in the tier, much more creative builds from zS.
SS: Confide vs Sabella
Is more confident in current ss nu, Sabella has been struggling recently, hl matchup tho from 2 experienced nu players.
SS: Arcobaleno vs Corthius
CORTHIASS


SS: mncmt vs EviGaro
Much more experience w current gen NU, and the better overall player.
SS: Meri Berry vs TJ
Meri can fs take this, predicting TJ as he is a better overall player, but if Meri cooks up something TJ is not prepared for they can take this handily.
SS: ProDigeZz vs Elias PSY
Elias will luck his opp like most weeks beforehand let’s be honest.


SS: Kushalos vs Raptor
Kush comes off a close L from last week but is still one of the top ss nu builders and players vs someone who doesn’t have much experience w the tier.
SS: xavgb vs GW
stresh is also coming off a loss, a lot less close, but I think the trends in GW builds are very easy to notice and abuse.
SS: freezai vs Davon
If Davon brings a normal team w stops for HO, he should win this convincingly. Wasn’t too impressed w freezai last week, although tbf, he was facing me ;). Nah but in all honesty, this looks like a fun mu, and if both bring solid teams I’m looking forward to seeing this one play out.

15/29 last week bc i didnt count the activity win lets GO

wrote these up p hastily but enjoy

(4) Neo Siphylis Sigilyphs vs Bulk Up Braviarys (6)
SS: mncmt vs EviGaro - mncmt's game last wk was quite clicky which might be a one-off thing but leads me to favor evi
SS: Meri Berry vs TJ - meri's probably rather demotivated rn but also surely doesnt want to end like 1-6, i think she can get a win if she puts her mind to it more than last game where she just clicked and didnt make a play
SS: ProDigeZz vs Elias PSY - sure what the hell. prod kinda choked his ss game last wk
SM: Askov vs avarice - he's had a really solid tour in this tier, avarice did well in his one SM game to win(or tie?) the week for his team but askov should know the tier better
ORAS: Spl4sh vs gorex - bruh spl4sh is so bad for last game LOLOL howd we force out archeops w a pelipper. if he brings actual mons again i'd probably still favor him or call it even but theres also a large chance he memes bc theyre close to out.
BW: Monai vs cb aaron judge
DPP: Beraldinho vs Bughouse - Beral is 5-0 and should be favored but I think bughouse will stop the streak, anyone in the NU discord knows he cares a bunch about the tier and Beral's games have been really close so it feels like it could end at any time. No shade to him ofc still having an excellent season, but for instance last week we won if we boomed on nido last turn (which was a 50-50 on expected protect i think, tho beral didnt have it so ig also a 50-50 on going trode on boom).
ADV: Hyogafodex vs neomon - hyoga's 0-5 in advuu, must win week for the braviaries and I've liked some of neomon's meta takes such as fat Wigglytuff (iirc? or was it a different normal). think stallish mons are viable af now that adv has shifted to out-offensing each other so his teams have been fun to see.
GSC: Siatam vs Holly - ceo has a great record here
RBY: Koalacance vs Oiseau Bleu - rby ribbon winner + theyre p even in this tier

(6) Dewford Duckletts vs Shiny Charizards (4)
SS: sensei axew vs Star - sure why not, he's been on a tear this tour and plays the meta a ton for nu circuit whereas star has had an average tour by just loading whatever hes passed
SS: OnArceus vs S1nn0hC0nfirm3d - I like both a lot but Ho3n is a little better in new metas I think, he's great at finding the brokens. Both these players are so annoying to prep for btw
SS: daniYSB vs GoldCat - trust him more as a builder bc he'll def tryhard the new meta
SM: poh vs Xiri - nice win last week by Xiri who is traditionally strong in this tier so sure
ORAS: Kiyo vs Drud - plays this meta more
BW: Togkey vs NHelioX7 - 4-1 togKING
DPP: HSOWA vs Ara
ADV: Jisoo vs Roseybear - This goes against the grain since Jisoo has been kicking ass this tour (and RUPL) whereas Roseybear struggled the last few weeks. Their team is also out which reduces motivation further. However I think rosey will be motivated to save his record, and he played well against Jisoo in RUPL, winning one game and losing one in a 50-50 CM war.
GSC: Lunala vs SOMALIA
RBY: May vs Ika Ika Musume - really cool that Ika has done this well despite not being a RBYer

RBY: Finchinator vs Aawin vs stop putting me in your line-ups dog

(5) Rabioots vs Pablominables (5)
SS: Kushalos vs Raptor - raptor is 1-4 this tour (which surprised me because he beat confide and is kicking ass in rusd, scl, and basically every other tour i've seen him in) so favoring kush here
SS: xavgb vs GW - Im pretty high on stresh still but dont like how he built last week - way too copper weak, relying on snorlax as a check seems unreliable even without superpower due to its difficulties staying healthy. GW also lost last week but had a rough mu; then again, stresh did too. idk this is p much a tossup
SS: freezai vs Davon - i hate davon's VR sheet votes man im sorry lolol it just makes me unsure about his grasp on the current meta. perhaps it also means we'll see some cool unconventional stuff, which is nice, but i dont get the logic behind downplaying goodra and silvally-ground's relevance in the current meta. they are some of the best breakers around!
SM: quziel vs Garay oak - sm king
ORAS: Luck O' the Irish vs The Goomy - quz+irish part 6 and irish has had quite the nice tour including a really well played win vs kiyo last week
BW: Nalorium vs Lily
DPP: The Strap vs Staxi
ADV: Heysup vs Raichy - I like heysup's adv teams a lot but raichy has the second-best record in the pool iirc so this should be a highlight game for sure
GSC: vani vs HSA
RBY: Enigami vs Serpi
 
Serpi

Serpi

World Defender
Khaetis vs Thor - not a bad namechange but I'm gonna keep predicting for Khaetis
Koalacance vs Oiseau Bleu - these guys both click hella fire spin lol. the braviaries are in a pretty good spot tho so OB might me motivated to come up with something else here to try and seal the playoffs
May vs Ika Ika Musume - Ika's team is out of playoff chances I've heard but still, great player
​
hf Raboots, seems like this week is important™! let's see if Enigami will ruin my x-0 record like I did to him in RBYPL
