Round 3:

Rage Critters vs Bad Manneroths vs Free Ena vs Church of Renaud

M17
HighTac [Rage]
EvilPeanut [BM]
Jaod [Ena]
Fail.Life [CoR][/color

Pretty good game.  I think any of the 4 can win.  But jaod has the best late game imo maybe hightac.  So jaod wins.

M18
LssL [Rage]
WRECKTIFY [BM]
TomToast [Ena]
Zs.Supercumulo [CoR]

Wreck cum and Tom can all win.  But wreck is the best late game so if he survives he wins easy, plus staff abuse.

M19
Airenikus [Rage]
Slythe [BM]
Trunks [Ena]
Seksi [CoR]

2 top tier players in seksi and trunks.  The other 2 are second tier so are very capable of winning if a few things go their way.  I'll go with trunks because these 3 won't be smart enough to team him and he will continue to dominate this season.

M20
Aarnikratti [Rage]
Dinamo [BM]
QQs [Ena]
Renaud [CoR]

Reno wins easy.   Especially if he goes my hero combo :) but he will go blexs and still win.
---

Fetta Inc. vs Free Agent Squad vs Suicide Squad vs Zig Zag ZIGGURAT!

M21
MrSweets [Inc]
ludakatapro [FREE]
Noexxx [SS]
Mog [Zig]

Noexxx is favored.  Unless mog can tinker abuse enough.

M22
IWANTWC4 [Inc]
Joggel [FREE]
AlienWareOwnZ [SS]
Eshan [Zig]

3 USA so hopefully we get an American bot.  Alien is favored to win, Eshan could possibly but I doubt it.  Also who the fuck is jiggle? This will be my first 4th place finish with many more to come.

M23
Betoon [Inc]
Gradient [FREE]
SosoHasRedHair [SS]
Tyrant [Zig]

Tyrant because he is amazing micro and mechanics.

M24
Fetta_ook [Inc]
Supremo [FREE]
Ponty [SS]
Junkerzam [Zig]

Ponty will win is my guess.   He has been chatting with me and learning different hero combos?!?!   I hope so....LOL

[FML|Mog]

M17
HighTac [Rage]
EvilPeanut [BM]
Jaod [Ena]
Fail.Life [CoR]

Peanut is looking good this season. Pretty even cast, I think it will depend a lot on who knows the map and who doesn't...

M18
LssL [Rage]
WRECKTIFY [BM]
TomToast [Ena]
Zs.Supercumulo [CoR]

Really hated cumulo's play last round if I'm being honest. However, LssL may be harboring some ill will toward Wrecktify from his horrible treatment in the last round. TomToast is a total wild card. Some times he can look pretty good, and sometimes he simply doesn't care. I think he takes after Shave 

M19
Airenikus [Rage]
Slythe [BM]
Trunks [Ena]
Seksi [CoR]

Trunks been on fire this season, some say he is the favorite to win it all, but his manip is really poor and I highly doubt players like slythe or seksi will fall for it.

M20
Aarnikratti [Rage]
Dinamo [BM]
QQs [Ena]
Renaud [CoR]

I expect at least 3 hours for this game. I also expect Renaud so somehow have 10k gold more than the others at some point, despite mining from the same mines and in the same upkeep. Oh, but he will only have 35 lumber.

M21
MrSweets [Inc]
ludakatapro [FREE]
Noexxx [SS]
Mog [Zig]

Can't believe I match Noexxx 3x in a row....Not sure yet who will replace ludakatapro; and quite frankly, that will have a big impact on this game. Mrsweet is a strong fighting orc, so maybe whoever survives Noe's rush can have a chance here. I have a feeling he will rush me though 

M22
IWANTWC4 [Inc]
Joggel [FREE]
AlienWareOwnZ [SS]
Eshan [Zig]

I definitely expect an eshan/iwantwc4 suicide, because they both chat aggressively in ways that tend to piss other players off. Sometimes Alien can be hotheaded too, so hopefully we will see some fireworks this game! Joggel is definitely a mystery to me, he seems solid, just needs more ffa experience (especially FML type ffa experience).

M23
Betoon [Inc]
Gradient [FREE]
SosoHasRedHair [SS]
Tyrant [Zig]

Some may say Gradient should have been on Sanctuary...but I've played vs him on Monsoon and he can be quite good with his annoying style. Could be a headache for these other players. Especially while Shave suicides Tyrant 

M24
Fetta_ook [Inc]
Supremo [FREE]
Ponty [SS]
Junkerzam [Zig]

I predict fetta picks elf here, and then rolls to a victory. I mean anyone who saw Supremo's last couple games know he will just pick a target and then suicide (seemingly unknowingly/totally unaware of the fact that ffa has multiple players). I guess it depends on spawns.

[Peregrine]

m22 thread link does not appear at top of website

[FML|Renaud]

Yeah, joggel din't have a forum account, so I can't auto create it :(
but I guess I can do it manually!

edit: created it, but it won't appear on the calendar until I can figure what his forum account is

[FML|HighTac]

Rage Critters vs Bad Manneroths vs Free Ena vs Church of Renaud

M17
HighTac [Rage]
EvilPeanut [BM]
Jaod [Ena]
Fail.Life [CoR]

I'm really looking forward to this match. Jaod slowly getting back in shape and Peanut probably the favorite here, despite the map not favoring human. Life is still a bit of a secret to me. Not talking much and playing few matches only. On the previous Gold Rush match he played poorly after a decent creeping.

M18
LssL [Rage]
WRECKTIFY [BM]
TomToast [Ena]
Zs.Supercumulo [CoR]

Wreck and Cumulo are the clear favorites here. I think the map is so overloaded with creeps, that it can become a burden for players that don't know it inside out. It was the map on which Wreck secured his fourth FML title and Cumulo created it. LssL might be able to compete, if he changes to usual human FFA style. His micro is alright. So is Toms, who has proven he can win, if he doesn't fall into troll mode.

M19
Airenikus [Rage]
Slythe [BM]
Trunks [Ena]
Seksi [CoR]

Great map and great line up. I feel players often let Trunks creep DH to level 6 here too easily (he always finds tome of power). If no player fails to scout and Slythe isn't suicidal, everyone can win this, else it'll be Trunks. I hope for a long match though and cheer for Airenikus of course.

M20
Aarnikratti [Rage]
Dinamo [BM]
QQs [Ena]
Renaud [CoR]

This will become a hoarding fest most likely. I expect Aarni to call out Renaud and QQs for hoarding and Dinamo being the silent pinball who will accidentally suicide another player to death. I cheer for Aarni, but hope he will come to his sense again and play nightelf.

Fetta Inc. vs Free Agent Squad vs Suicide Squad vs Zig Zag ZIGGURAT!

M21
MrSweets [Inc]
ludakatapro [FREE]
Noexxx [SS]
Mog [Zig]

Strong cast on a rather unpredictable map. I would love to see a good player subbing for Ludakata (b100 please!) to make this even more interesting. Mog seems to be in great shape and probably the most reliable bet here. Godlike Noe not playing much these days and always at risk of being teamed for name, which can be really painful on this map.

M22
IWANTWC4 [Inc]
Joggel [FREE]
AlienWareOwnZ [SS]
Eshan [Zig]

Oh dear. I already see Eshan and Alien raging in front of their screens and Iwantwc4 laughing his ass off. If no one suicides in this game, it will come down to a 3-way between Alien, Eshan and Joggel, I guess. The latter will need to step up his ffa sense in order to not be tooled around. I'll bet on Alien if he manages to stay calm and continues mannered chat in the late game.

M23
Betoon [Inc]
Gradient [FREE]
SosoHasRedHair [SS]
Tyrant [Zig]

I think this match will be all about spawn positions and who manages to tome Gradi and Betoon the most. I agree with Mog that it can be a potentially good map for Gradi to rebuild, but I doubt he will be able to do so vs Shave and Tyrant. Although Shave claimed that he always suicides Tyrant, I don't believe he will do so with this line up.

M24
Fetta_ook [Inc]
Supremo [FREE]
Ponty [SS]
Junkerzam [Zig]

Difficult line up. Junker seems to be in good shape and should be the clear favorite here. Still, if this match remains a 4-way for some time and all players have gold, I think it may become dirty and a pain. Supremo tunnelvisioning as always and Fetta having a lovely chat with Ponty for two hours.

[Wrecktify]

M17
HighTac [Rage]
EvilPeanut [BM]
Jaod [Ena]
Fail.Life [CoR]'

EvilPeanut's power skyrocketed once he embraced the dark side.  Now, on the frozen fields of... Freezing Fields... really guys?  We couldnt have a more creative name than that?  OK whatever, Peanut is basically a sexier version of Noexxx bringing early game and late game skills that thrill.    I REALLY thought Fail Life played NE so I am confused by his orc icon.  Im genuinely sad that Jaod decided to play this season but not on the Bad Manneroths.  HighTac is my new streaming buddy, so I will just be nice and say "Good Luck" to him.  Because he'll need it.  Cause Peanut is going to destroy him.  HAHAHAAHAH.


M18
LssL [Rage]
WRECKTIFY [BM]
TomToast [Ena]
Zs.Supercumulo [CoR]

I only think ive played Supes once and I think I suicided him?  Ill just call now I will probably suicide him.  Or he will suicide me after I start complaining about his map.  Speaking of which this map is bananas.  Your natural expansion is cross map and guarded by a fucking purple golem.  FUCK YOU SUPES.

LSSL will suicide me once im done suiciding Supes, then Tom will be like 'Pip pip cheerio m8s.'


M19
Airenikus [Rage]
Slythe [BM]
Trunks [Ena]
Seksi [CoR]

Slythe keeps drawing the toughest MU for the Bad Manneroths.  And for that:





M20
Aarnikratti [Rage]
Dinamo [BM]
QQs [Ena]
Renaud [CoR]

Definitely not biased with my picks here.  100% unbiased coverage.  Zero bias.  None.

Fetta Inc. vs Free Agent Squad vs Suicide Squad vs Zig Zag ZIGGURAT!

M21
MrSweets [Inc]
ludakatapro [FREE]
Noexxx [SS]
Mog [Zig]

Mog willi preteam Noexxx with Tyrant, who will sub for Ludakatpro.  Then Hightac will kick everyone but Mr.Sweets who will win by default.


M22
IWANTWC4 [Inc]
Joggel [FREE]
AlienWareOwnZ [SS]
Eshan [Zig]

I dont know why people think Karfal and Eshan will suicide eachother.  Eshan only threatens suicides and Karfal is a passive player.  I do think one of them will over-commit against the other though.  Unstoppable force meets immovable object.   I also expect the observers panties to get in a twist over all the manip, while I will be sitting back drinking coffee outta my BobaFett mug and laughing it up on stream.


M23
Betoon[Inc]
Gradient [FREE]
SosoHasRedHair [SS]
Tyrant [Zig]

The highly underrated Gradient vs. the highly overrated Tyrant.  Gradient uses ninjitsu secret techniques like no-passive Tinker which will confuse his opponents into submission.  I genuinely dont know if SosoHasRedHair is Shave, Soso, or Noe-smurf, and really dont care.  Because Gradient is that powerful.  Betoon sounds like what you'd call your farts after eating too much chipotle. 

M24
Fetta_ook [Inc]
Supremo [FREE]
Ponty [SS]
Junkerzam [Zig]

God I just love Fetta so much.  He gets so mad, he pours his heart into every missed stomp, and his name reminds me of cheese.  Whats not to love.  Hes like an honorary Bad Mannerothian.

[AlienWareOwnZ]

 M17
  HighTac [Rage]
  EvilPeanut [BM]
  Jaod [Ena]
  Fail.Life [CoR]

This is a good cast as far as balance goes. To me jaod has the edge here based off of ffa exp so Ill go with him. Peanut can make a good showing if he can make good decsions when it matters. Fail life is kind of aa wild card so whoever gets stuck next to him better beware
 M18
  LssL [Rage]
  WRECKTIFY [BM]
  TomToast [Ena]
  Zs.Supercumulo

Its hard to bet against wreck or cumulo in this matchup but cumulo will probably kill wreck early and wont be teamed enough to not win. Ppl always think he has 5k gold when he has 20k so my pick is cumulo.
Tom can make it interesting if he plays the undercard role well enough.
 M19
  Airenikus [Rage]
  Slythe [BM]
  Trunks [Ena]
  Seksi [CoR]

This cast will never let trunks win, ever! that is probably why trunks is trying to swap himself out of this match (lol)
Seksi slyhte and airenikus all have the same style to me but its between seksi and slyhte IMO. Ill pick seksi if he goes undead

 M20
  Aarnikratti [Rage]
  Dinamo [BM]
  QQs [Ena]
  Renaud [CoR]

I get the feeling this will be a 6 hour game, the only one who will force some action is probably dynamo which will be his demise. Ill pick Renaud because hes always underestimated IMO

tyrant has a knack  for puppeting noobs while he has more gold than all of them put together. That being said, knowing my buddy shave as well as I do he wont stand for this and suicide tyrant. Gradient wins

 M24
  Fetta_ook [Inc]
  Supremo [FREE]
  Ponty [SS]
  Junkerzam [Zig]

Junkers has a slight edge here but it will all depends on who supremo tunnel visions on. This game has potential for some rage fireworks :D

[Toast]

M17
HighTac [Rage]
EvilPeanut [BM]
:Russia: Jaod [Ena]
Fail.Life [CoR]

Skillswise i would say Jaodboy has the upper hand here if his ping is ok this time, but Hightac and EvilPeanut are both snakes. Jaod will win his 1v1, probably Peanut will tank his mainbase down and hightac snips peanuts castle. So i expect a lot of babyrage upcoming!

M18
LssL [Rage]
WRECKTIFY [BM]
TomToast [Ena]
Zs.Supercumulo [CoR]

Ok guys this is how this game is going to be played out! Wreck and i will make it look like we are fighting each other, so we can force a hu 1v1 which is the only fair match up, we all know hu is totally op and elf cant beat hu! Even a peruvian lama like cumulo looks decent with this race. But Wreck and i both smarter than stephen hopkins will just hoard talking some about the newest Worpex nudes and feed each other some hippos from time to time to get decent hero levels. After cumulo won his 1v1 vs Lssl, we will snipe his castle with 200 food chims and cumulo will die with 20k gold bank! So Cumulo has to decide which one he is going to suicde and he will pick me because i called him a peruvian lama.

M19
Airenikus [Rage]
Slythe [BM]
Trunks [Ena]
Seksi [CoR]

Im expecting a early 3vs1 vs trunkz, after 63 hero kills he will probably be out of gold and lose the game. Slythe will go for a firelord pitlord beastmaster build, which make him look like super weak and not worth fighting 1v1 so 3way will be easy for him to reach. After a lot of manip and hiding units everywhere on the map it will end up in a baserace and Slyths Vulcano ulti will seal the deal for him.

M20
Aarnikratti [Rage]
Dinamo [BM]
QQs [Ena]
Renaud [CoR]

qqs the new rising star for the hu race, no micro at all but who cares if u play hu. After renaud reaching the 60k gold mark because of skipping wood wisps entirely qqs will kill him easily because elf cant beat hu no matter how much gold u have. Aarni and dinamo will suicide each other because of no scouting at all, so easy win for qqs.


M21
MrSweets [Inc]
ludakatapro [FREE]
Noexxx [SS]
Mog [Zig]

no way for noexxx to win this, everybody fears him even if he is rusty as fuck and plays on his tablet without mouse while studying physics so no way for him to win 3vs1. Mog seems to be unbeatable with his robo goblin technology lately.

M22
IWANTWC4 [Inc]
Joggel [FREE]
AlienWareOwnZ [SS]
Eshan [Zig]

Alien and joggel both very good players, but one of those dicks karfal or eshan will win the game in the end. Both players would prostitute their mother to get more gold to secure the win for them but eshan is able to use staffs so he should have the upper hand here.


M23
Betoon [Inc]
Gradient [FREE]
SosoHasRedHair [SS]
Tyrant [Zig]

After seeing gradient rebuilding on anarchy castle i became his biggest fan. Shaved will make sure tyrant cant win the game. so it will be a final showdown between Gradient and Betoon.


M24
Fetta_ook [Inc]
Supremo [FREE]
Ponty [SS]
Junkerzam [Zig]

Nobody of those tryhards can beat lord fetta. His 100 food micro is unique, im sure not even 300 food are enough to beat fetta.

[SteppinRazor]

M17
HighTac [Rage]
EvilPeanut [BM]
Jaod [Ena]
Fail.Life [CoR]

I don't know a ton about anyone except Jaod, but he has a knack for being a cunning player so Ill go with him.  I expect something like 3v1 on the human for hu imba and then faillife randomly suicides into hightac while jaod is "dead" with like 10k more then everyone else

M18
LssL [Rage]
WRECKTIFY [BM]
TomToast [Ena]
Zs.Supercumulo [CoR]

Never bet against Tom Brady, The Golden State Warriors, and of course King Wrecktify 8D

M19
Airenikus [Rage]
Slythe [BM]
Trunks [Ena]
Seksi [CoR]

Time for seksi to win some games.  If you are taking into account the history of all of these players, he's the best one here and while he's maybe not in TOP form he's still plenty good to win.  Surely trunks cant just steamroll his way to an undefeated season can he?  I don't think hes aggressive style will work against seksi and slythe who are too smart of players to lose a fast game against a micro monster type

M20
Aarnikratti [Rage]
Dinamo [BM]
QQs [Ena]
Renaud [CoR]

Sanctuary is the ultimate renaud map.  I expect dinamo and qqs to suicide while letting renaud bank like 90k

M21
MrSweets [Inc]
ludakatapro [FREE]
Noexxx [SS]
Mog [Zig]

Considering noe already lost to mog once, he can't possibly lose twice can he??  I think he will rush mog and then have an easy 1v2 against the others with mass tp abuse

M22
IWANTWC4 [Inc]
Joggel [FREE]
AlienWareOwnZ [SS]
Eshan [Zig]

If eshan dies first this game is way easier for everyone, so I think it will be a priority for alien to rush him out if it all possible. 

M23
Betoon [Inc]
Gradient [FREE]
SosoHasRedHair [SS]
Tyrant [Zig]

Easy win for tyrant if he can rush out shave, then take a 2v1 vs the others.  I think gradi has an outside chance if things get out of control and he can get a lot of gold and buildings

M24
Fetta_ook [Inc]
Supremo [FREE]
Ponty [SS]
Junkerzam [Zig]
[/quote]

Supremo is a mad suicider so he has no chance.  I think if he rushes fetta or ponty they will have some issues while junker will prob just tome him easy.  I predict supremo to die first, after he suicide rushes and then someone else cleans him with a 80 food push.  I see fetta winning as long as supremo doesnt suicide him since he will get a lot of gold and the likely 3 way with ponty fetta and junker will result in teaming junker and then fetta batting ponty to oblivion. 

[IWANTWC4]

I agree steppin nice summary.  Alien should rush out Eshan and then joggel :)  lol

[Peregrine]

Prediction thread manip is low

[Wrecktify]

@AlienWareOwnZ lol your prediction post is hideously formatted but spot on.  i totally forgot supes rushes me.  which will probably lead to like a 25 minute game.

[Peregrine]

Wreck do u remember semifinals with me u and supes a few seasons ago? it was 3way, he manipped into teaming me out, and then he pwned u with mass gold and mass tp
