So, if imsorrylol wins the whole tour, will it be like ict where he keeps his trophy but at the same time he is banned?

Also i'm rooting for Malekith.

first of all ggs Malekith hope you or SoulWind can take the gold to home, think i did it well despite those times where the game just went my way i also played good ppl so was a good run in my opinion.

I didnt build a single team during the tour so think its fair and necessary to name those people who were always there giving me teams when i asked for them.
Gondra Lednah London Beats Trosko Posho. thanks you guys

also for those ppl who asked, i didnt even have def on cleffa so i would've lost either way with eq + Pyshock unless i would've para the volcarona:blobshrug:

Banned deucer.
imsosorrylol vs Malekith - they both looked pretty unconvincing and got some donations last round, but malekith can like my post because he isn't forum banned so I gotta go with him on this one.

mael vs Frania - mael is a lucky piece of shit, I will say that much. frania was competent in recent sets. not expecting a good series

WhiteQueen
vs SoulWind - "dont pretend" that whitequeen isnt the superior player here. however, kinda hoping that soulwind moves on to beat his inspiration malekith in the finals. a great cinderella story for the mexican kid

Jimmy Turtwig vs Charmflash - watching charmflash bring a game 2 pikachu and sac it to earthquake left a bad taste in my mouth. I think that jimmy turtwigs consistently mediocre play will be enough to overcome this boosted monkey.

3/8, first time all ost that my record is worse than the spl ape, time to step it up :(

2287 points btw

imsosorrylol vs Malekith - malekith's not banned so even if he had gotten byes until now to get this far (he hasn't) I'd still predict him to win this set.

mael vs Frania - as much as I like mael, Frania looked way better in their last round showings so if he continues that trend and mael doesn't step it up, he'll probably take this set.

WhiteQueen vs SoulWind - WQ has been here 3 times before and only one of them was a trophy, so if experience wins games, wq has this one. SW has been playing well though so this game is anybodys tbh.

Jimmy Turtwig vs Charmflash - Jimmy was struggling a bit in his games but eventually won (the timeout win g1 helped him a lot though) so I'll probably give this to Za Meowdo. That is, as long as he beings Pokémon that are actually viable in OU and not more Pikachu...
 
imsosorrylol vs Malekith : Both are extremely skilled, but sorry inspite of being out of the game for a few months, has shown consistently throughout this tour how good he is when he is playing a focused game. So betting my chips on yung imsoforumbannedlol. Kill em sorry! LGI
mael vs Frania : I have really been impressed by Mael's gameplay. While I do have a lot of respect for Farnia, I think mael might have the edge in this one. However this would be a good one to watch for sure.
WhiteQueen vs SoulWind : Amazing skill and Godlike luck are a formidable combination. Imagine predicting against that...crazy. Made that mistake last round already :P
Jimmy Turtwig vs Charmflash : Really no idea who wins this one, If it had not been for Za Meowdo's plays in round 8, I would have picked Jimmy here, but Za really played well vs Eternam.. Za had the MU, but still can't take away the fact that he played exceptionally in all 3 games vs Eternam the GOAT. Because of this I'm conflicted between the two, but this will definitely be a match I look forward to!

Best of luck everyone! Sorry, WQ or Za to win it all now :]
