[Zephyr Dragon Lord]

Well. someone was on the ball, so I can't do the complete predictions... so I'll just do the ones that are left! Closer predictions in italics.

The Immortal vs DarkAngeallenq.q TI took out Highlord. This is convincing me he's actually incredibly powerful, including in Mix and Mega.
Jrdn vs Gmansour20 Jrdn is too good at this to really lose at this point.
Pigeons vs Chloe Well, I WAS going to give the edge to Chloe here based on MnM experience, but I suppose the show had to be finished quickly.
Quantum Tesseract vs Arushi Was also going to make a press Q joke here, but Arushi is pretty good. Not quite as good as QT, though.
maroon vs Anaconja Anaconja's going to outmeme maroon here, let's face it.
Hamhamhamham vs cscl Ham is an allegory for "win" in this case.
QY_CS vs czim Haven't heard of either of these players too much, so I'm going with who I think is better.
Zephyr Dragon Lord vs Plas I might punt my way into the shark of defeat, but I have my doubts.
Fardin vs In The Hills This is going to be wild and close either way, but I think Fardin's teambuilding gives him a slight edge here.
Zorro349 vs DurzaOffTopic Actually a tough call. My gut's telling me Zorro, but I can see Durza pulling something here.
Terracotta vs OM room Also a tough call. Terracotta's a good player, and OM room pulled off some upsets this open...
MetaRiolu7 vs Jucherz I mean, there's "meta" right in that name, which means the better tuned player here is clear.

 

[Gman]

Won in 3 ggs, with some (a lot of) luck on my part.

 

[maroon]

won in 3 vs anaconja

 

[Quantum Tesseract]

Won in 3 vs Arushi . I’d love to call em great games since they were fun, but if I’m being honest both rng and techinical errors ended up making far too much of the game for me to call it a clean series, sorry about that.

 

[Fardin]

won in 3 vs the best teambuilder in mnm

 

[Hamhamhamhamham]

Won in 2 super tight, fun games. ggs

 

[Meta]

Won in 3 fun games vs Jucherz, ggs!

 

[Terracotta]

Won in 3 ggs and sorry for the little hax g3

 

[DurzaOffTopic]

won in 3 ggs

 

[Zephyr Dragon Lord]

So I won this one in 3 close matches.
I feel like my predictions went haywire. Guess I'm not the good visionary that others are. Sorry about that.

 

[QY_CS]

[The Immortal]

The last game (The Immortal vs DarkAngeallenq.q) is scheduled for before the deadline. Putting round 4 up in the meantime so people can get an extra day.
