If you remember, last week I let a randomnizer do my prediction. If I haven't overlooked anything--I noticed some games haven't played yet, it seems--, the randomnizer got 12 out of 24 possible predictions correctly. The "half correct prediction" curse seems to be true for most of us here. x)
Anyway, this week, I'll do my own prediction. Congrats to Paul's team for the neat comeback, very impressive!

Comment: I don't remember the name of every player. So, I went by familiarity in some cases. That said, dex has been very inconsistent these past few weeks while TPP stayed ahead. If this continues, TPP might as well claim to be the only remaining undefeated player in M4A. Pretty impressive for someone unfamiliar with the format, even if there's only one mainer in the current tournament. Let's see if TPP will keep his win streak this week. I have little doubt given their consistency so far.

Comment: I don't think I've seen much of Runo to give a better assessment. That said, Tempo could have some easier weeks earlier if they had the right Mega Pokémon. For instance, M Noivern > M Latias on the Sand team, which would have put a lot more pressure on TPP's team while worrying less about Weavile's Pursuit. And it would have fit the style much better, countering other weather teams better and generally being a great switch-in option given its incredible speed and customizable bulk. Anyway, I think there's a lot of potential in Tempo's choice of teams so far. So, I'm hoping they'll win this time. On an unrelated note, I've been watching FE recently, and it's such a visual joy to spectate. It also looks fairly interesting, I might give Fe VGC a try in the future. Whoever made the sprites, bless you. What an amazing work.

Comment: If it weren't for my bias, I think the Dave's would have looked a little bit better. Anyway, hidin has been popping off lately but will they overcome the more experienced IsoCon? As much as I like watching hidin's games, IsoCon will likely have the better advantage. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if hidin were to try very hard this week and surprise us. Looking forward to seeing what Mega Pokémon will appear this time. Have been liking the choices every time so far whenever IsoCon or hidin were involved. Special bonus for hidin for their really great taste.
