Heavy Metal Highlights (5) vs (3) Optical Illusionists
SV - Floss vs snaga - even though snaga's record is better, I think floss is still better and should be able to win this one
SV - Raptor vs cyanize - raptor is the better player but cyanize is a p good builder and could win if they manage to get a good mu
SV - Kev vs Inder - inder is imo an underrated player in general and is coming from a win after subbing in last week, so I am expecting another win from him
SS - Attribute vs BluBirD - both seems to be picking up SS pretty well, but I still don't have too much info on Attribute so I am bolding blubird. Interesting match tho, should be a good watch
SM - xXcrossbowXx vs Master Chief - rabbit and this stupid nickname isn't going anywhere against my hero crossbow
ORAS - Chaitanya vs Isza - isza is a p good player but I've never seen him playing any RU, and despite not having a good start, chaitanya is still one of the most dangerous names in oras and I expect here to be the start of his comeback
BW - Guille14 vs avarice - better player and I think we can already see some of guille's tendencies, so I am not sure if his techs will put in work here
BO3 - Feliburn vs Lunala - With a 2-0 record playing only SV and SS in both series, I give feli the edge in these two, mainly SS. Luna seems to be favored in SM after his win vs. Franklin, but Feli still has to show us what he has in mind for SM atm, which is something to take into consideration. I think this series will come down to whoever wins the SV game, but both are p good so I can see it going either way

Sleek Slush Rushers (4) vs (4) Almighty Gluttons
SV - NHelioX7 vs DugZa - dugza is showing the great player he is with two pretty solid wins and should be able to win another one
SV - Ampha vs Leru - VAMOS AMPHA CARALHO PORRA
SV - Togkey vs Lily - lily is doing a p good tournament and togkey doesn't seem to really be enjoying the current state of the meta, so I am bolding Lily here, but both are p good and I expect to see a good game
SS - GW vs zS - zs is the better player and has more experience in the tier, but I am not a fan of the teams he has been bringing. However, I am also not a fan of what GW brought last week, so I am giving zs the edge here and I expect him to start picking some wins
SM - lighthouses vs Clementine - Diogo is pretty good and I don't see him losing this one unless some misfortune
ORAS - Xiri vs shiloh - xiri is not doing a good tournament and rozes won against the best player in the oras pool, so I am bolding him
BW - Finchinator vs ninjadog - both very experienced players in the tier, but i expect a finchinator win here
BO3 - Danny vs crying - despite losing to feli in a pretty frustrating series in week 1, crying is still a pretty strong player and is coming from a huge win vs. pdt. However, Danny is also solid and is more experienced in all ru tiers than crying, and I honestly doubt that he will lose three in a row

Rocky Mountain's Payloaders (4) vs (4) Noble Guardians
SV - kythr vs gum - kythr has been having a better tournament, but gum is building some pretty solid teams in this meta and should be able to get a favorable matchup which will lead to their win
SV - devin vs umbry - as I said in week 1, umbry is imo the strongest player in the sv pool and I really doubt I am ever gonna bold against her
SV - Yourwelcomethanku vs Fc - fc seems to be a bit lost in this tournament and was already moved to another tier, so he will need to learn sv ru asap. In the other hand, ywt has way more tier knowledge and I trust him to win this one
SS - dunoks vs Lyssa - better player and should win as long as she doesn't bring punny stall again
SM - Ajna vs lax - i think this is the most interesting matchup of the week, both are really solid players but my gut says lax will win
ORAS - Shaneghoul vs QWILY - qwily is having a pretty good tournament, but shane is coming from a pretty good win and i think he will win again, but ofc a qwily win wouldn't be a surprise
BW - GoldCat vs Jisoo - gc has a lot of experience in bw ru and won against two p good players so i am expecting a 3-0 from him
BO3 - pdt vs Punny - this is my personal highlight of the week. I think I give a slight edge to Punny in all three tiers, but I think it's in games like these where pdt shows that he is a formidable player and is capable to beat anyone. Should be a pretty good watch in which I think pdt will need to win in the builder to beat the strongest player in the bo3 pool

Hey good evening, could you please explain how this adds up to Durant? Double football being 12 means one is 6, with this knowledge basketball + football is 7 + 6 to obtain 13, which means basketball + voleyball is 7 + 10 to obtain 17. That means that the last equation would add up to 6 + 7 + 10, aka 23. Am i missing something? How is the result a Durant? I'd like an explanation if possible. Thanks!

After popular demand (one single person asked me) the Luna predictions are back. Sorry for missing out on week 2...


Sleek Slush Rushers (2) vs (6) Almighty Gluttons
SV - NHelioX7 vs DugZa - Helio has been ok this tour so far, but Dugza had a better showing versus stronger players, hard to not predict for him here.
SV - Ampha vs Leru - I'd say Leru is the better player but he only had one game so far which is a loss while Ampha has the mainer energy, predicting for him.
SV - Togkey vs Lily - already happened but would have bolded lily anyways
SS - GW vs zS - i don't see zs going 0-3 to be honest, gw just needs to not load dark type sharpedo
SM - lighthouses vs Clementine - didnt like some sequences and movesets against Ajna last week but in general he looked decent enough, dont like moving Diogo out of oras after a 2-0 streak.
ORAS - Xiri vs shiloh - shiloh is really good
BW - Finchinator vs ninjadog - Ninja has been struggling and while i do still think Finch in BW RU is a waste he should win this one.
BO3 - Danny vs crying - as much as i love Danny, the bo3 pool was really not suited for him. If theres someone he start the comeback tho is from a non-mainer, so i hope to see that happen here.

Rocky Mountain's Payloaders (4) vs (4) Noble Guardians
SV - kythr vs gum - i'd love to root for my gumstie but kythr has been really good at expanding in other tiers outside LC.
SV - devin vs umbry - completely biased and shes the better player in general
SV - Yourwelcomethanku vs Fc - YWTU should win this one on the builder, i dont think FC even knows what a Mabostiff looks like
SS - dunoks vs Lyssa - completely biased and shes the better player in general
SM - Ajna vs lax - Ajna wins this as long as he doesnt load the same team thrice in a row
ORAS - Shaneghoul vs QWILY - This matchup is probably a coinflip so im just following my gut, both are p good
BW - GoldCat vs Jisoo - only a BW RU moment will stop GoldCat
BO3 - pdt vs Punny - im not predicting against punny ever

Deranged Hustlers (2) vs (6) Punk Rock Perpetrators
SV - Vulpix03 vs ishtar - Vulpix sleep powdered a revavroom, if i cant trust you to at least hover on a pokemon im not trusting you to win a game sorry...
SV - Thiago Nunes vs EviGaro - while Evi has been struggling shes also been facing good players, if she can start the comeback its now
SV - C0nfiden1 0yster vs sasha - mainer power or smth idk what to say here
SS - tlenit vs Metallica126 - never really impressed by tlenit, so this one is just me hoping to see metallica win
SM - robjr vs odr - now that odr faced our team, hes not losing another game
ORAS - HANTSUKI vs Staxi - hantsukis games have been really uninpressive
BW - LpZ vs Feaniix - new comer struggling to get into the tier vs new comer thriving, not much to say here
BO3 - Beraldo vs Star - i dont wanna predict 1-7 and i want beraldo to win tbh...

Let's go illusionists! You did great so far keep it up :swole:
 
Heavy Metal Highlights (5) vs (2) Optical Illusionists
SV - Floss vs snaga - i trust floss more in ru. snaga has looked good from the little we've seen though so like, only 60/40 or so in floss's favour imo..
SV - Raptor vs cyanize - enri's been bringing unique teams to say the least and while i think that's a good thing, i think that sort of building struggles more vs a team with a lot of sv support. raptor's also the better player so i give him the edge
SV - Kev vs Inder - umm tbh idk
SS - Attribute vs BluBirD - bolding him cuz gknot sball reuniclus is an insane cteam, so i feel like i should trust the heavy metals more in the builder here
SM - xXcrossbowXx vs Master Chief - i think he's 2-0? and idk what rabbit's record is sorry. but looks like a close match 2 me
ORAS - Chaitanya vs Isza - i shouldnt be bolding him but im biased and chait's 0-2 so idk go isza :D
BW - Guille14 vs avarice - havent been too impressed with guille's playing so far and i'd trust dillon more
BO3 - Feliburn vs Lunala - tbh go luna a bit but feli has been doing rly well this tour so far

Sleek Slush Rushers (2) vs (6) Almighty Gluttons
SV - NHelioX7 vs DugZa - good player, i trust his playing abilities while i haven't really seen much of his opponent. i think the almighty gluttons have also been doing well in sv? idk
SV - Ampha vs Leru - basically what i said above
SV - Togkey vs Lily - already happened but would've bolded her before, she's been doing well while tog has been struggling a bit to find her footing
SS - GW vs zS - he is quite good at swsh ru! so im rooting for him. i think gw has been alright so far though so
SM - lighthouses vs Clementine - he's a great sm player, clem won vs ajna last week but lighthouses has still been more consistent in this tier for multiple years so
ORAS - Xiri vs shiloh - tbh idk just the vibe im feeling
BW - Finchinator vs ninjadog - idk how they've been doing this tour but i think finch is better, and he's also good at bw tiers in general so
BO3 - Danny vs crying - better player and i think her building could easily give her an edge against an opponent like danny. i think it could just as easily backfire though, and danny's a capable player so should be a fun watch

Deranged Hustlers (3) vs (4) Punk Rock Perpetrators
SV - Vulpix03 vs ishtar - can't root against my foomfie.. anyway i trust her building a lot and i think she's a solid enough player to take a game from pix, who's less familiar with the metagame. should be a close one
SV - Thiago Nunes vs EviGaro - tnunes is good at the game while evi has been struggling so far. perpetrators have also lost both weeks and im wondering how the team morale is for them
SV - C0nfiden1 0yster vs sasha - tbh idk but umm go sasha
SS - tlenit vs Metallica126 - a more proven player and i think? he's 2-0. or maybe 1-1, idk. either way, the hustlers also have solid swsh building support, and i rate the perpetrators's building lower
SM - robjr vs odr - idt i can really bold against odr vs like, most if not all people in this pool
ORAS - HANTSUKI vs Staxi - i have not been keeping up with this flop gen enough to form an opinion on this matchup x
BW - LpZ vs Feaniix - he's been doing well. i think lpz could win this since he has a lot of experience with bw lower tiers but feanix seems to be comfortable here
BO3 - Beraldo vs Star - the perpetrators's building support has been lacking at times imo, which i think can easily come back to bite them in a slot like bo3. and also im biased tbh, but berald's good!!

go team!!
