Week 1 mostly TWLD Predictions

[Poseidon]

TWLD:


*dicE vs. Rapid* *twld game of the week*: 40-50

dice was already overrated and on top of that just lost 3 of their 5 starters within the past week, rapid was already gr8 but acquired 2 gud wbs in creature and mega newb, along with an already deep WB ensemble. expect 2 to see brokenfirst sling a lot of aces.

MVP: Sphinktor


Thunder vs. Sage: 50-35

the reason i am giving sage 35 is because i think that while they arent great at wbs they are patient enough to not be bored 2 death. since thunder wins by boring teams 2 death i think the game might be closer than expected, but in the end thudner has better aimers.

MVP: chuckle


Shinobi vs Wolf: 39-50

if either rasaq or paky dude wasnt playing the score would be closer, but i dont think shinobi can handle that combo. shinobi could surprise me as i dont think they even have a clue as to what their starting line looks like so they might be trying new combos every week, and one could click.

MVP: Rasaq


Mad vs Quicksand: 50-38

if quicksand was as good as they like to think they are, i would deem this matchup the game of the week, but, they arent. unfortunately players like apok and deez are gr8 at countering the bum rush, and rushing is generally the only thing there to compensate for lack of depth apparent on quicksand. i expect geio and racka 2 be angry at the rest of the squad for being poor, with a possible squad dissolve happening shortly thereafter

MVP: Apok


Fatal vs. Epidemic: 36-50

if last weeks defeat vs warpath wasn't enough to humble fatal, hopefully their upcoming loss vs epidemic will be. epidemic has regrouped and reacquired some key player(s) and fatal just isnt that gr8. 2 many chokers and not enough carriers.

MVP: delectable


Warpath vs Serenity: 50-44

this is the matchup i am the most uncertain about. if jaa and guero have good games then this will go to serenity, but i am leaning towards sir spider and iron survivor having the better game.

MVP: sir spider


-------------------

TWLJ:

i dont know the skill of squads and javelins well enuff 2 make a good assessment, but based on what i have seen, here is a quick run by of the winners

sage vs Mad : 38-50

Boss vs Shinobi: 41-50

Respect vs Thunder: 36-50

Hydra vs Rapid: 50-48

dicE vs Fatal: 50-34



-------------------

TWLB: i base a lot and like 2 base but i dont really watch a lot of games and pay attention to who are gr8 players, but this is my take from my experience


Brainwave vs. Techunique: 15-7

Penetrate vs Rapid: 13-15

Thunder vs Sage: 15-12

*Respect vs Mad* *TWLB game of the week*: 15-13.5

Anti-scrub vs Dice: 4-15

i highly doubt Penetrate can lose to rapid again but anything can happen.

[Black Mage]

I think Poseidon's squadtag may have had something to do with that basing pick.

We agreed on everything but Shinobi - Wolf (and i said in my explaining part that I was probably overrating them)

[zhou]

wolf might stand a chance if they start Rasaq from the get go, amiright?

[Poseidon]

or maybe cuz rapid just beat penetrate in preaseason while short 3 or 4 starters, not that penetrate had starting line in either, like i said, i dont rly know. penetrate could definitely win, but imo out of any of the leagues, basing games are always the least predictable, its just the nature of the league. however, rapid are underrated by a lot of people, they have terrs and sharks that can get the job done and when they are all there, a nice spider core. dont think we r gonna win the league or n e thing tho, but probably shouldnt be considered the pushover that a lot of people think of us as

wolf might stand a chance if they start Rasaq from the get go, amiright?

i think we will win if paky dude and rasaq are in, they didnt really play in the preseason
