Eshan and Shave dodged a bullet here. Unless Shave delegated his suiciding job to Ponty, Eshan should be the favorite here. But in the end, it's still Gold Rush, usually allowing anyone to rebuild several times if he's in tryhard mode. I hope Aarni is, so he can secure the second victory for our team. I hope he either randoms human, which is his worst race, but good here or NE/UD, the races he's best with.
Very balanced game in my opinion. As usual on Silverpine, spawn positions may have quite a big impact. All players can be quite aggressive early, but I hope Airenikus and Peanut won't be too passive in the later stages, cowering behind their towers. If so, Junker and Shave will have an edge in my eyes, unless the latter switches into suicide mode.
An interesting one, particularly on Anarchy Castle. Anything can happen on this map and races will play a major role. I think it's particularly bad for NE (unless Trunks style) and UD (unless necrowaggons). I can't really figure out how Wreck or LssL are supposed to win here and Alien disappointed me heavily in M8 yesterday. I will put all my gold on Tyrant for that reason. :)

HighTac [Rage] Slythe [BM] Noexxx [SS] Mog [Zig]
Mog and I will try to keep this a gentlemen's match and prevent Slythe and Noe from turning into rage mode. Noe is the clear favorite here, followed by Mog. Everyone's talking about your tinker Mog, but for whatever reason, I'm never witnessing that. Where is your tinker?

Fetta Inc. vs Free Agent Squad vs Free Ena vs Church of Renuaud
How can you not seat Gradi on Gold Rush????? Probably team-internal miscommunication. Please correct this asap! I guess this is the lineup liberal lefty QQs always dreamed of. Annoying no staff Karfal, passive pizza Supremo and Life, who's distracted by the construction side in front of his house.
Again, this match will depend a lot on spawn positions and on dragao's sub (as he will not show). If B100 subs, he will destroy Trunks and secure the victory for Renaud. Else, Trunks takes home his second victory.
This must be another mistake by Free Agents (aka 50% no show and 25% confusion). Even turtle rock crazy would've been a better map for Gradi than this one. If Spielmann with his cool hero combos (big like) can tome Gradi out, this could become an exciting 3-way. Otherwise, it will become a quick (1h in Gradi-terms) 1v1 between Seksi and MrSweets. The latter is more trained in 1v1 and will win.
Most likely the calmest match of this playweek. I've no clue about Ludakata's skill level, but I assume it will be challenging for Betoon and him to stand a chance here. If Jaod manages to prevent Cumulo from hoarding and toming too much, I think he can take home his second victory here. I hope be will see a flashy 1v1 between these two and I want to see necrowaggons! It almost feels as if all necrowaggon players retired or stopped to random undead.
4 Nov CET 8 pm - 11 pm EST 3 pm - 6 pm 5 Nov CET 4 pm - 11 pm EST 11 am - 6 pm (best day for me) 8 Nov CET 8 pm - 11 pm EST 3 pm - 6 pm 9 Nov CET 8 pm - 11 pm EST 3 pm - 6 pm 12 Nov CET 8 pm - 11 pm EST 3 pm - 6 pm
My availability in the next two weeks is even funkier than Wreck's.
Oct 19 (today before 11 pm CEST / 2 pm PST) Oct 20 (between 10 am CEST / 1 am PST and 4 pm CEST / 7 am PST)
Oct 25 (between 10 am CEST / 1 am PST and 11 pm CEST / 2 pm PST) Oct 26 (between 10 am CEST / 1 am PST and 11 pm CEST / 2 pm PST) Oct 29 (between 5 pm CET / 12 pm EST and 11 pm CET / 6 pm EST)
For me either today, tomorrow or Sunday Oct 29 would work best.
I wasn't part of this community before 2017 and missed many years of fabulous FFA, but damn was I looking forward to these predictions (Wreck's in particular). Here are mine:
Eshan is right, Pizza Supremo sounds tasty, but not sure if that's going to help him winning here. Fetta will provoke Slythe into suiciding him by gloomingly bragging about the items he found. Shortly before taking home his victory, Airenikus performs a fetta stomp in Supremo's main. Supremo, not following the community for long, is fully unaware of this strategy and, in a state of shock, sacrifices his DH into Samuro's blades.
After watching too many recent replays of Shave, Wreck will lose his DR to creeps early. With great foresightedness, my APs were already built next to his main to recklessly exploit his painful loss. Orcs will just blindly search the map for my main, but won't find it, since I'm disguised in Wreck's main now. Transmute will finish the job.
As I heard, DkHDennis still thinks he signed up for a 2v2 competition. So be it. I already briefed Aarni to team up with Peanut, just having a piece of the Baltic Sea between themselves. That edge will help them to end the game before Peanut gets his AM to level six and messes up everything with his horrible usage of mass TP.
Every rage critter was advised to take at least five lessons in Polish, to be prepared for these exact situations. This will come in handy now. Being by far the weakest player on our team, we told Soso to keep a low profile and let Gradi do the work. Also Soso was told to play Pitlord Pala combo since I once successfully played these heroes in a random hero pub match.
Seksi seemed still kind of strong the first few days after he returned, but the Neon City match yesterday left me unimpressed. Use your owl damnit! If Shave survives creeping and starts chatting again during a potential 3-way, he may win, else it's Eshan's match to take. QQs will successfully hoard 20k and invest it profitably into books of retraining, since finance guy Eshan told him that's the way to do it.
I'm sad that we don't see famous Nelfs as Wreck or Renaud in daily inhouse FFAs, so I can only assess their skill level via FML VoDs. Renaud and Tyrant might be good, but not in shape maybe. Ponty accidently picks UD as his race, but prefers to observe anyway. So he immediately sells mine and necropolis at the start. I quite liked what I saw from Spielmann so far (especially his hero choices), so I'll go with him.
A match half of young blood. Unless Noe plays with touchpad, because he still hasn't gotten a mouse, he should bulldoze over his 1v1 enemy. Not sure if Fail.Life is aware of the common strategy "teaming for name". If he's on one side with either Mog or Sweet, it's definitely Noe's victory.
I think everyone in this match can consider him or herself as a winner if they manage to schedule it with Trunks. The latter would be a favorite here I think (despite his lag of FFA sense in my eyes), but stopped playing and rage quitted all matches I've seen in the last 1.5 months. Still, I think this is the most interesting and balanced match of the playday. If Alien gets Orc or UD when playing random, I think he wins.
I'm a curious person and would like to know why your main race became your main race in the first place. What do you like most about it and (independently of the race), what's your favorite hero in the game. Storytime!!!!
I'm one of the less experiened players here, but I wouldn't agree on the all races are balanced statement.
Although FFA is so different from solo and has way more viable strategies, I feel BM crit and tanks are the two things that feel wrong in both game modes. Crit calculation should be based on base damage only and tanks either take one more supply or give more xp.
