  • 【 TWLJ 】 predictions for playoff round one

    Dudgeon vs Fierce
    (50 - 46)
    (50 - 42)

    The second seed, Dudgeon, definitely has an edge over their opponents despite being dismantled by Fierce in the regular season. This team strives to perform at the highest of levels, and their greatest strength is their flexibility in lineups and play style. The only concern on their side is Zizzo, and whether he will will mange to play on the same level as he did in the regular season as he has never been that great in high pressure matches such as this one, often even outright throwing games for his team.

    Fierce on the other hand has nothing to lose. This squad had a great performance against their opponents in the regular season, and as they come to this match as the slight underdogs, it means they should have no pressure and that could lead into an upset. Their veteran players need to show some confident play in this match if they wish to come out with a positive result as there is little to no chance of beating Dudgeon in a drawn-out game.

    The key to this match will be the weak links on both sides and how well they will be shut down by their opponents. However, as Fierce does not have the luxury of having insane depth in their roster, they simply can not afford a player to get singled out due to the lack of quality substitutes. This simple fact could very well be the deciding factor in this game.



    BurN vs Juans
    (46 - 50)
    (50 - 41)
    (50 - 39)


    BurN is one of the favorites to win the title this season, but they still have one enormous Achilles' heel they need to get rid of as it could prove to be fatal for their tournament hopes. The fact is that most of their members are very susceptible to performing under their expected levels, often resulting in a match that has already been won to be thrown and given away to the opponents in the most ridiculous of ways. It will be interesting to see whether their newly acquired key member Ease will stand behind his words and honor his promise of not playing against his former squad as the loss of him could very well prove to be detrimental to his squad in this seriers. Nevertheless, this squad does have enough depth and class to most likely get out of this match with a positive result.

    On the other side of the ring we have the challenger team, Juans. This team is quite special as they have formed a great camaraderie among all their members, with the exception of the black sheep of the group, Steadman, and thus should fare well in the tournament. However given their opponents relative strength, Juans might be biting off more than they can chew in this series and will have to bounce back after being relegated to the lower bracket.

    As for my prediction, it is probable that Juans will win the first round, in miraculous style one could add, but then get simply outclassed and thrown into the oubliette by their opponents with no chance of escaping their inevitable fate of playing in the lower bracket. Thus, with that being said, BurN will advance to the second round of the playoffs with their next opponent, barring any shocking results, being their rival squad Dudgeon.



    Cobra vs You2be
    (50 - 39)
    (50 - 42)

    This is a match that I do not have much to say about, but given the relative strengths and weaknesses of both teams it is easy to single out the favorite and underdog.

    Cobra is a strange squad when trying to assess their true strength. They have shown moments of brilliance, and at times it seems like all their players have hit a slump that could last for weeks. While they do have the quality to clean-sweep their opponents this week no matter which Cobra shows, their next opponent, most likely being Juans, will be a much tougher nut to crack and all of their players will need to step up if they wish to advance any further in the tournament.

    Their opponents, You2be, have definitely fallen short from the dream and every passing day shows that there is close to no chance of a miracle similar to Boss happening this season. I would call it the upset of the season if this team manages to pull through and beat Cobra, and in theory You2be does possess the quality and unpredictability to perform an early Christmas miracle.



    Potenza vs LEGO
    (50 - 40)
    (41 - 50)
    (50 - 46)

    These two squads had one of the better matches in the regular season with Potenza reigning victorious with an overall score of 50 to 47. This speaks how closely matched these teams are, and we should this to turn out to be a great series to watch and play.

    Potenza is a very curious squad, and their lineup is a mix of pure talent, high latency and skill. They have had their periods of highs and lows, and should they show up with confident play and a winning mentality, this squad suddenly becomes a very tough team to beat. They do not have any superstar players, but most of their lineup can and will carry their own weight which is more than enough to win this series.

    Their opponents, LEGO, has shown how inconsistent their lineup is with only two players performing at a decent level in each match. The fact that one of their key players, Infrared, can not show this weekend is a huge blow for this team as they will have to rely on a players with less experience in the ship which is probably going to be our downfall.

    I hate predicting against my own team, but we are definitely the underdogs given the shakiness and uncertainty of our lineup and at times you simply have to be a realist. LEGO does have the ability to take at least one round in this series, but unfortunately most of the time the squad with more consistent players will win in a best of three series thus Potenza is the team expected to advance. Nonetheless, whoever advances will have to face Fierce or Dudgeon in the next round, both of whom are formidable opponents and extremely hard to beat.
