SM OU 4: John vs. ict
SM OU 5: ABR vs. Mazar - either way this'll probably be a funny match
ORAS OU: BKC vs. Get this Money - interesting that east puts their bye in oras. fr though as good as kev is, his opponent having more practice in the tier will probably play a factor in the game
BW2 OU: Jayde vs. bluri - looking forward to this one, think it's too close to call
DPP OU: -Tsunami- vs. xray - weird matchup
ADV OU: Bad Ass vs. Fakes - fakes definitely seems more solid in adv

ORAS OU: Znain vs. Jimmy Turtwig - nice matchup. go jimmy :D
BW2 OU: Posho vs. ZoroDark - great matchup between friends. think that the newest ST winner will "cucc" his opponent in a close one

Banned deucer.
Did you know that Team USA West has more current starting players whose names begin with a lowercase letter than any other remaining team?
These 6 sublime users are: psychicmewtwo, ez, craing ;_;, rozes, dice, and undisputed.
Team Germany is next on the list with 4: menci, ict, bluri, and xray.
Team France has 2: boudouche and k3nan.
Teams USA East, Europe, and Spain only have 1 user whose name starts with a lowercase letter! They are idiotfrommars, choolio, and reiku, respectively.
Team Italy, in an unfashionable display, unanimously rejected the trendy lowercase username. All their starting players' usernames are capitalized.
Team Latin America's -herO- can't decide if he prefers uppercase, lowercase, or hyphens, so he decided to include all 3!

The performance of lowercase-users in the rounds to come will undoubtedly inform generations of present and future Smogon users on exactly how to utilize capitalization in their own usernames.

The East SM is probably the best in the tournament. I think this past gen lineup isn't as strong as it could be, but East should still win this series in a fairly one sided affair. Jayde had a rough round yesterday but should still be a very close game against bluri. If any of the German SM could pull an upset it will be Mazar or ict.

2. Latin America (4) vs. 7. Europe (6)

ADV OU: .Mx vs. We Three Kings
GSC OU: Vileman vs. choolio

Both teams are very interesting and very underrated, Europe has a surprisingly powerful SM lineup backed by solid players who although don't necessarily play the tier as often as some, are still very good players. Their SM lineup gives them the edge in this matchup although LA isn't a team to sleep on. When it comes to past gens I believe both teams aren't the strongest past gens but still have some very good players like Posho and Jimmiy Turt. Nightfox has been impressive thus far and should continue vs void. Europe looks to take a very close series that will hopefully not come down to hax.


3. France (5) vs. 6. US West (5)

BW2 OU: McMeghan vs. dice
DPP OU: boudouche vs. Philip7086
ADV OU: Ojama vs. undisputed
GSC OU: k3nan vs. Lavos

I think this has the potential to best the closest series of all of round 2, both teams are fairly evenly matched and a few of the games could go either way. I believe France has the slight edge in SM but both teams are good, Welli0u vs PM2 should be one of the best games of this series. Phil coming off the bench obviously helps west a lot and free's up dice to go to another gen, glad he picked bw because dice vs roro will be a good game. Close series overall and could very easily go to tie break.

4. Italy (4) vs. 5. Spain (6)

SM OU 1: Bro

SM OU 2: -Snow vs. Trosko
SM OU 3: Will of Fire vs. Malekith
SM OU 4: Alexander. vs. Poek

This is going to be a great series. Coming off a strong Round 1 Italy holds a lot of momentum where players like alex, tricking, snow and honor did a lot of work the heavy lifting. Spain comes into round 2 boasting their typical powerful lineup focuses on past gen success. However, their past gens struggled in round 1 with only their ADV combo of Pokebasket/Mariana managed to win their pool. This series is going to come down to a couple of crucial games, Axel vs Bro Kappa, Poek vs Alex and Asuya vs Soulwind are all going to be extremely close games and will turn the tide of the series.

Looking forward to ABR vs. Mazar, Cdumas vs. craing ;_; and Alexander. vs. Poek in SM. Jayde vs bluri and McMeghan vs dice look like great matchups in BW, I'm excited for these as well.

East is most likely winning the whole thing, but I'd be very happy to see LA win it all. I love how they managed to form an organized team with solid players and their enthusiasm reminds me of the times when team Brazil was originally formed. I'd also be very happy to see Spain vs France finals with either team winning, think they've definitely been the most solid teams behind East for a long time now and it'd be nice to see someone else win for a change.
