Tuesday Picks
Break and Run @ BlackSilver This could happen. Now first off, let me say BNR got the arse end of the divisional draws because...if they were still in the Mountain they could easily be a playoff threat. Now they really need to dig and scrape for it even more. After that match against BeerBallers (which they would've won had someone noticed Ivey's tourney record, bummer) they just simply took what BBM gave them. Teams like BNR and BA get underestimated early on, and that's why they're so dangerous in the early goings. With BlackSilver keeping Eddie, it'll be tough for BNR to win this match, but I do think if they play their cards right, Break and Run can steal an upset W here. If they, it's gonna be those same guys I keep talking about that need wins, badalnighter, patriciamalkin, and redhot. Obviously kellyhero can easily be added in there as well, along with bigjerm if he shows. They'll need their A+ game tonight, but I think they have a legitimate shot to win 4-3.
WildAngels @ UnitedPool Angels pulled off a good win last week against XPool, and now they're against UnitedPool. Both teams actually do have some good shooters, the only thing either would need to work on to become deadly in MLP would be decision making, and of course, that'd include when to safety and where to shoot. If ketan plays a little earlier, perhaps he can put some pressure on the Angels team, and possibly swing the momentum into UnitedPool's favor. I'm gonna say the Angels win 4-3 here, but if ketan plays sometime around game 5 or 6 when it's 2-2 or the Angels lead 3-2, UnitedPool could win.
DreamPool @ ElitePool Now here's a match. I didn't give ElitePool the respect they deserve apparently in the preseason. They pulled off an impressive rally against LPL last week, while DreamPool rolled against the Keepers. That was away for EP, now they're at home, and of course...We all know the big story here, Jack, former EP captain, now with DreamPool. The Elites are gonna be out for blood tonight, and you know what? While DreamPool may very well have the better team, I'm gonna take ElitePool to win this match. The key obviously will be to have more than 7 players tonight for EP, get a little depth going, and pick who plays when very carefully. If they do it right, 4-3 Elites.
ChampionsPool @ HotShotz So, are the HotShotz that good or was BlackSilver just off their game? We'll likely find out tonight. I don't know much about either team however so it's ging to be a pure guess. So let's just throw out 5-2 HotShotz. =\
