LAST WEEK SCORE: 5-0
BERKELEY SCORE: 5-0
ZoroDark vs Mambo
Even though ZoroDark is coming off of what should've been a win last week (fuck HJK amiright) this predict doesn't seem too hard. Mambo is simply a very good LC player. ZD isn't without merits in this matchup, however. For one thing, he played better than I think most people expected him to stepping into a somewhat unfamiliar tier, and I know I was pretty happy about that. On the other hand, because he's relatively inexperienced in the tier, it might be harder for Mambo to put in his trademark preparation for this match. Regardless, I think metagame experience comes into play, and Mambo takes it for the Wolfpack.
OP vs Heysup
This looks like a highlight match, and it's one we haven't exactly seen recently! OP and Heysup are both incredibly good LC players, but as OP drafted Heysup to his LCPL team we've been missing out on high quality matches, at least in the public eye. I'm sure the two have tested together often, so this matchup will probably come down to experience, where Heysup will take it. On the other hand, OP could surprise and actually prepare for Onix / Honedge / Geodude / Aipom, but Heysup could see that coming and CT the CT ... and so on. Heysup takes this one, but only barely.
blarajan vs Kingler12345
This one isn't too tough at all, to be frank. Kingler did not play well in last week's match, and blarajan is a pretty consistent set. As long as blarajan doesn't bring something like manual rain, he should take this one without too much trouble.
Star. vs ZoroarkForever
Star has been doing pretty well as of late, and from ZF's Week One performance it's apparent that he's at least a little rusty. ZF has the motive to bounce back in this match, obviously, but I don't think he'll be able to topple Star.
fitzy72 vs mad0ka
mad0ka got beat last week, but since it wasn't a haxxxxxxy match she's not gonna go full-on tilt at all. Instead, the Most Winningest LC Circuit Tourney Player™ will find a way to win against fitzy; however, fitzy looked pretty solid despite a loss last week, so he's got a fighting chance. This will likely end up as one of the funnest matches to watch this week, especially with the hax potential d0ka always carries ...
