EM10
L77
ReFlekKt
SteppinRazor
Nooblex

Ok ill actually predict this one.  Reflekkt seems to be having a tough time adjusting to FFA, so I will actually predict fourth for him here.  Razor seems to be better on bnet than in FML; however, L77 seems to be on some drunken post-championship bender of downward spiraldom.  Cmon dewd you da champ!  You got this!  But im predicting you to come in third.  Steppin second.  Blex has home map advantage (hippos ftw against those imba dragons in the middle, chippo-over-trees, etc.)  Yes I predicted finish order.  Im a badass.

3wD.SimO
Uzi-Madone

Kruppe

Maga is gayyyyyy.  I hate him.  And his playstyle.  Fortunately Im not playing against him so I can judge this impartially.  And he shall win.  Even against the godly Sir Kruppe.  He will own up the creeps then tome someone.  But its easier to defend on this map which will negate the typical 2v1 Magadom. 

WM9
DkH.Starshaped
Ghost-Burne
bRyAnIsBack
UnholydreadlorD

Brian seems to be a generic orc abuser, and while I want to pick SS, this map really blows for using mass tp.  The GhostBurne guy needs to not sit at 100 all game.  Hydro needs to show up for this game.  Id say SS could win but Bryan probably will.  Then SS will write an essay on how bad FFA is.

WM10
DkH.Rain
crowjam

Daseland

Daseland seems be to be on a "Im playing my bad race and not using manip" downward spiral and its gonna cost him here.  Sorry brah, but youre an orc abuser and FFA is the only format where even having in-game chat is worthwhile, if not crucial.  Even that putz Maga manips (albeit poorly) when hes getting reamed.  If youre just gonna take it in the ass youre gonna end up like 0-0-0-0-5.  Yes, youre getting 5 fifth place finishes in a 4 week season.  Jerk.  Man up and eat some donuts.

(Rain will win.  Toejam will lose.  MK needs a shorter name.)

WM11
[b Q-veta[/b]
Maddog
ntropy
w8man

No PM will really handicap Veta, who needs it to win.   Hes like a conductor.  Or something.  And without PM its like the orchestra said "fuck you buddy play an instrument."  Well vata can play this game.  Decently.  Hes like gypsie-ebony.  Well maybe better than ebony but doesn't have orc to abuse.  Maybe you should play orc, vata.  Anyway I think you will win.  Ntropy's style is worthless on this map and he cant fight for shit.  W8man will hoard 30k then leave.  Maddog... I have no clue who he is, but hes german so presumably he can wage a decent war.

Although if Sparkle is gets going without much pressure early his army will be strong, especially versus Human or Undead. 

EM9
PLZLEAVEDUCK
ATi.Bright
Rygorych
Persuade

I'd like to go old school with LouisArmstrong, however he plays SC2 and in the one game of WC3 I played against him recently he was out of sorts.  Persuade seems like a cerebral player with an open mind to FFA unlike another certain solo player who thinks he is the best...

EM10
L77
ReFlekKt
SteppinRazor
Nooblex

This could be a great underdog win showing skills that have been dormant of late!  Confidence is key my friend.  Nooblex is not an elite micro player and L77 is tricky... use this to your advantage and apply pressure whichever way you go.  Don't let it be a macro type game for it would be to your disadvantage (especially being Undead)

I think he's still going to be on a revenge streak from all those 11 point games last season.

WM9

UnholydreadlorD

It's too bad this isn't on a smaller map since I think SS rushing Bryan would be really interesting.  I haven't seen many games yet where Bryan's heroes don't get completely out of control, but I trust SS will know how to keep them in check, assuming he doesn't get frustrated and quit.  Either way, if Bryan tries creepjacking him then this game should be pretty quick and very entertaining.

It's an interesting map and I think Darker adapts nicely.  I had a tough time picking between him and lw, but I think LW is more likely to get teamed early on so I'm going with Darker.

Should be an... interesting game.  Maybe someone will change it up and not go human.
WM14

Should be an excellent game I think.  3 of the previous weeks winners and all they're all great players.  I think Sly will probably go in as the favorite and get teamed because of it which will give F10 the opportunity to hoard for a while.  Either way I look forward to watching this one.

[FML|Mage]

To make it a bit more interesting I'm going to try to keep track of overall predictions correct throughout the season.  So here's round 1

Ugri: 4
Beljone: 3
Duck: 4
Steppin: 4
Wreck: 5
Mage: 8
Humstar: 4
PBM: 6
Worp: 4
Sly: 2
Sparkle: 3
Renaud: 0 (though he didn't predict the west matches... still Renaud, please never pick me to win a match =D)

If you think I miscounted how many you got right let me know and I'll go check. 

[FML|WorpeX]

Oh shiiiiiiiit Practicemage making this interesting! I'm predicting this time. :D

EM6
Walking.TrL
SicKTheGreat
Redz7z
JineiUdou

most experienced FFA player in the group. He shouldn't have too much trouble in this unless he fights Jinei straight up and loses a micro battle. If that happens, then Red will likely win cause Jinei has no upkeep management skills and would be out of gold.

EM9

Duck has gotten pretty powerful in FFA. He should have the micro to win this game but the key point is, his macro and ffa sense which have become pretty damn good. Ebo might give some issues if he goes Orc, but we'll have to see!

So here goes the curse of Renaud!

EM6
Walking.TrL

JineiUdou

If we watch last season's replay, we can conclude that Walking is a great UD that simply can never defend his main correctly (despite having such a sexy base build).  He is now given a map on which he might be able to pull it off!  Go walking go!

EM8

Beljone
Kajetan
paterique

Beljone seems to be a dangerous "I hit everyone" player, Kajetan likes to fight it straight up, pat seems to have trouble scouting, and WRECKTIFY is like that uncle that always cheat whenever he plays with kids because he knows he can get away with it.  I can see him asking for a straight up battle, then mass tp in a main instead; then complain about how he was being harrassed (which he wasn't) and that's why he lost the battle (which he din't).  And everyone will believe him, since HES THE TRUE KING!

Horrible ground map, HORRIBLE (unless you have mass tp to move around, and everyone has 50 food of useless AA).  That being said, it doesn't look good for Persuade who does weird fun ground army :(   So I shall give my vote to Duck!
