Round 7
Eternal Spirit vs Insult - insult will have to heavily overperform to win here, es is too strong
Bro Kappa vs Ojama - bk took down soulwind wich is very impressive, but ojama is still the favorite here.
Kickasser vs (The Hallows vs Sjneider)- kickasser has been very very strong
Zuchtrest vs Simia - zuchtrest is another very entretaining one, god knows what the hell he will bring this time

disclaimer: these might b pretty off & im biased

Eternal Spirit vs Insult: pretty close MU and it's definitely anyone's win but insult has the stronger building support behind him & he's been very impressive this whole tour, i've faith he will pull it off. tht being said ES just beat ABR & can definitely random.org his way to victory vs insult's prep so will be interesting to watch for sure

Bro Kappa vs Ojama: these 2 did meet again previously & bro kappa came out of it with the (arguably undeserved) win, i dont think ojama will let that happen again. BK is a wild one though so he shouldn't be counted out, i just feel ojama is more favored here.

Kickasser vs (The Hallows vs Sjneider): ben hallows the comeback kid. hallows has probably the best building support in the tour along w/ insult & has played quite a bit better than sjneider during the tour (imo) so the real match is kickasser vs hallows. kick does ofc have the french battalion behind him, i think this will be the most enjoyable matchup this round as it is quite evenly matched. i'm going w hallows because i am BIASED, but i truly do feel he will do it.

Zuchtrest vs Simia: another one w the baguette army, zuch hasn't been playing bad but like his teams have been...yeah. i feel simia takes this as long as he gets proper help from his compatriots during prep & doesn't completely discount his opponent out.

Lmao at all those beta frenchies supporting kickISasser. Easy win for big ben The Hallows.

It's coming home

Predicting either the kingping or the kickping to take this one

Eternal Spirit (65) vs (35) Insult - Insult is solid for sure, but nobody seems to know how to tackle Gama in the battle or teambuilder. He has a growing list of high profile victories and he has hardly lost over the past year, so you kinda have to favor him imo.
Bro Kappa (40) vs (60) Ojama - Ojama has been one of the most consistent in SM over the times he has actively played the tier. Bro Kappa is all over the place, but I don't think he takes this series unless he gets match-up advantage in a couple games, which tbh isn't out of the question given his crazy team choices, but yea strongly favor Ojama here
Kickasser (65) vs (35) (The Hallows (50) vs (50) Sjneider) - As long as he doesn't use webs :cwl:
Zuchtrest (45)vs (55) Simia - Close set, but I think Simia will pick up on some things about Zuch that will give him an inherent advantage here
