love the football themeseems like fun, so imma channel my inner sunday nfl countdown and make some expert picks here, as well as some bs vegas odds. i know i really haven't been on here for too long so please take these picks with a grain of salt
SolarflareRo (-800) vs e~t~h~e~y
don't have enough information on solarflare from personal experience, but from what i have heard, he seems like a very solid player. ethey on the other hand is garbage, probably worst player in TLT maybe even on showdown in general and i have no doubt he will get 6-0d every game. jk im going ethey.
Cheese5555 (-140) vs halaman95
from playing them both in tours, both are very solid players for sure, I can see this series being pretty close, but I'm going to have to give the edge to cheese
Decem (-300) vs Ronman5
seems like Decem is a dark horse pick to make a deep run here, and Decem is a very solid player, dont think he should have a whole lot of trouble winning here.
RaJ.Shoot (even) vs MJ
both very good players from what I have heard, however I don't really have any sort of experience with either of them really as well as any information to really go on, so not gonna choose a winner here.
t0te vs (-160) Sets
from what I remember Sets seems like the better player here, gonna go with him on this one
KabilaPok vs (even) TheFranklin
kabila is actually extremely solid in a couple of tiers, although I think arce might be better all around, with all things considered. gonna go with arce, but would not be suprised at all if kabila won this
Baloor vs (-100) get_lucki
imreallysus or baloor, whatever he goes by was very solid whenever i saw him play, but the same goes for lant. lant is one of the friendliest users around, so gonna have to go with lant on this one.
micoytancinco12 vs (-200) realSurfyTeen
micoy has always been decent, but I think surfy has been consistently better. picking surfy for this one.
Stareal (-500) vs 7u9i2
i don't even need to read the next guys name, stareal is winning this one.
Pamplona (-100) vs NotAnHacker
no idea who pamplona is, but i have played notanhacker a couple of times, but due to the incorrect use of "an" in your name as opposed to "a", which tilts me for some reason, im gonna pick pampalona
PokeArt2004 vs (-300) Luthier
big fan of pokeart, but luthier is one of the best, if not the best player in TLT. going luthier on this one, but would love to see pokeart pull off an upset
Let's Rumble Shall We vs (even) lkapkd1
this is just a funny matchup. seems like the hyper offense bowl. i don't want to pick LKAP, but rayquaza is one of my least favorite pokemon. so with that being said im picking "lets rumble shall we" in 3 games all less than 15 turns.
MrDoTooMuch* vs (even) Angels & Airwaves
don't know either of these players, so im gonna pick angels and airwaves, because that seems like more of a winning name here
saba1111 vs (even) Shadowmonstr7
both very good players again, one of the better r1 matchups, but i like saba, and i dont really know shadowmonstr too well so im gonna go saba.
LethalHobo723 vs (-180) Maki
lethalhobo is actually a very good player, but I think Maki is a decent amount better than him as well as more experienced, so going Maki here
PrinceOfAllTacos (-170) vs Kaif
poat by 90.
Hys vs (-280) 100%GXE
xhys is also a very solid player, but GXE is one of the best. kind of a shame that hys got GXE in the first round, as I would probably pick him against a lot of other people but, i'd be dumb not to pick GXE here.
kythr vs Failures
already happened
Lugia_numair (-100) vs blinkboy
dont know blinkboy at all, lugia was always decent, so gonna pick him just bc i have never seen blinkboy
henguinie (-150) vs 52Gambit
i think hengunie was ban drizzle lol? he was always solid from what I have seen, so going with him on this one.
Alternatif vs (-200) Sificon
don't know alternatif, but sificon is a good player, going with him
TeamCharm69 vs (-999999) Maple
teamcharm is garbage, ez dub for maple
The Thunderbirds vs Suzize*
dont know either of them, not even gonna choose
Furya* vs (-150) ZUALBR
dont know furya, but zualbr is a super nice dude, and very good in a couple of tiers i know for sure, going with him on this one
Roxiee vs (-120) Trade
great matchup, but i have to give trade the edge here. both very good players obviously, but i think trade is a bit better
giove97 vs (-200) EternalSnowman
sorry giove, ESM is very good, picking him here
TheGreenRoman (-300) vs dragon246
going with thegreenroman here. not much else to say
atiman (-100) vs skipkan
atiman actually makes some pretty good unique teams, and plays very well with them. i've heard skipkan is good too though, but i really don't have any knowledge to back that up, soo gonna pick atiman
imjustgray vs fatfighter2
this is actually my favorite matchup, fat is one of my good friends on this site and one hell of a player. but gray is good. really good. I will be rooting for fat and very interested to see this series
vumshi vs (-300) sensei axew
vumshi is very one dimensional and the way he plays isn't very skill based, and i really have only seen him play one style. i think sensei is the more skilled player here, so he gets the edge on this one.
inolife vs (even) richardpepper
imacry is a very solid OU player, and richard is a very solid all around player. i think this series will be close, but i think i might give richard a slight edge here
APW001 (-150) vs SiceXIV
sice aka 3500 fo da coat aka whatever name he has now is a good player there's no doubt about that. but this dude loves to talk more smack for no reason than anyone i know on this site, so rooting for Mal on this one. for sure will be a good series though as both are v solid
ill take this as a compliment lmao, gl this week yourselfHi I am hungry for likes, thus I'll be doing predicts that no one cares about
SolarflareRo vs e~t~h~e~y: oo my boy solar, also I really found ethey's attitude very cringe lately
Cheese5555 vs halaman95: Haven't seen halaman play since blt and I've seen cheese more around
Decem vs Ronman5: Is this Ron...5 alt? Unless that's the case decem wins.
RaJ.Shoot vs MJ: Idk who either of them are
t0te vs Sets: Sets already has a custom so I'm bolding against them
KabilaPok vs TheFranklin: KabilaPok is a tours room reg iirc but ru main arce is my preferred pick
Baloor vs get_lucki: omg lant sogood pls win
micoytancinco12 vs realSurfyTeen: I haven't seen micoy play in a good while but I have also been inactive in a good while
Stareal vs 7u9i2: idk the other guy
Pamplona vs NotAnHacker: idk both but names with bad grammar are always better
PokeArt2004 vs Luthier: from what I heard this guy is good but idk
Let's Rumble Shall We vs lkapkd1: don't really wanna bold in favor of lkap, but idk who the other guy is, I think he played in blt but I don't remember too much.
MrDoTooMuch* vs Angels & Airwaves: better name
saba1111 vs Shadowmonstr7: hate to bold against saba but uh this could be close considering how versatile + underrated sabaoat is.
LethalHobo723 vs Maki: LethalHobo is literally THE better name but
PrinceOfAllTacos vs Kaif: Grats on driver
Hys vs 100%GXE: Grats on driver
kythr vs Failures: Grats on voice
Lugia_numair vs blinkboy: I think lugia played good in blt iirc
henguinie vs 52Gambit: fun match but I haven't seen much of bdl after blt
Alternatif vs Sificon: hi sifi
TeamCharm69 vs Maple: also interesting match, TeamCharm is a good tours room reg but Maple is really good
The Thunderbirds vs Suzize*: Suzize is a tp reg but uhh no smogon acc? Bolding the goat tbirds
Furya* vs ZUALBR: this name is familiar for no reason
Roxiee vs Trade: heat matchup, trade's versatility is on a higher level than roxiee's imo but they're both very good players
giove97 vs EternalSnowman: Haven't seen giove play much lately
TheGreenRoman vs Dragon246: I know neither but numbers suck
Atiman vs Skipkan: Gonna go with the name I know
imjustgray vs FatFighter2: same as above
Vamshi vs Sensei Axew: same as above
iNoLife vs RichardPepper: from what I heard this guy is really good.
APW001 vs SiceXV: apw is god but sice is a . Also in all seriousness I haven't seen apw play as much as I used to.
