It's been a long time, but the tradition of making tournament predictions is too good not to disturb its slumber. Would love to see all of y'alls predictions as well!
Opening Round NA:
Fini
Click
--> Force Decent enough on a good day.
Agility
--> Send Nudz Assuming his nets alright, Noodz is a class player and would get out of any opening round.
--> Carnage Carn is definitely top 4 here & even likely to finish on top.
--> Renegade Arguably the best set of instant chats in the game, but also good at sumo.
Charizard
--> Andrei Even though it's a US server, Andrei has been very good lately so I gotta pick him over Magi.
Wolf
--> Raph Solid player, has heaps of tourney experience.
Magi
Mr.Saur
--> OnlyMassMail The obvious choice.
--> Gazelle Haven't seen Gaz's form lately, but it's hard to rule out a 2 time SBT champion. (SBTs 3 and 8)
Jofish
Opening Round EU:
--> Olive Despite layers upon layers of rust, olive is still a top sumoer.
Belter
Ritsuka
--> Jericho
Para
--> Johnny There'll be a battle for 4th here between Para, Johnny and pyrrhus. Despite the ping disadvantage Johnny should prevail.
pyrrhus
--> Appleseed Another 2 time SBT champion (10 and 11) and one of the best regardless of server location. (His east coast ping doesn't hurt)
Nemesis
Stereo
--> Vira7 His mazing style should be effective in this type of tournament.
--> Vov The most obvious choice here in an otherwise tight opening round.
--> Liz Experience prevails.
GluGGsel
dóggié
--> Titanoboa I mean, I have to believe in myself.
Semi-finals NA:
Force
Send Nudz
--> Carnage Top 3 will be between Carn, OMM, and Gaz.
Renegade
Andrei
--> Raph And raph will just about squeeze into 4th in the end.
--> OnlyMassMail
--> Gazelle
Semi-finals EU:
Olive
Jericho
--> Johnny Would be a clear top 4 player on the US side, but here just about squeezes infront of olive.
--> Appleseed Should be in the top half of this match at least 9 times out of 10.
Vira7
--> Vov 10 times out of 10.
Liz
--> Titanoboa I mean, why not?
FINALS 1-3 in order, the rest in alphabetical order.
--> 1. Vov ... Vov wins!
2. Appleseed
3. OnlyMassMail
Carnage
Gazelle
Johnny
Raph
Titanoboa

Re: SBT March 28 2020 Predictions
OPENING
Noodz NA
Carnage - S tier sumo god
Send Nudz - obviously the best sumoer south of the equator
Fini - always a very solid sumoer who can easily deal with high ping
Force - force to be reckoned with Dx
Click
Agility
Renegade
Charizard
Kevin NA
OnlyMassMail - mass mail is trash at iMessage word hunt but good at sumo
Gazelle - former S tier sumo god, usually unrusts in about 3 rounds
Andrei - A tier sumoer with a solid camping style which is good for sbt
Raph - very addicted to sumo atm
Magi
Wolf
Mr.Saur
Jofish
Noodz EU
Appleseed - S tier
pyrrhus - I forgot how good py is, he keeps beating me in Smoko shed x_x
Jericho - another solid player
Johnny - very consistent, should make the top 4
Olive
Belter
Ritsuka
Para
Zman EU
Vov - aggressive S-tier man
Liz - liz always does well in sbt, using her small binds to conserve space
Titanoboa - very experienced, knows how to win matches
Nemesis - B tier'er who has rapidly been on the rise recently, keep an eye out
Vira7
Stereo
GluGGsel
dóggié
SEMI
NA
Carnage - S tier sumo god. If he is playing well, this man is basically invincible due to his robotic maneuvers and calculated speed cuts.
Raph - raph is simply an annoying opponent to play, does not die very easily because he is a cockroach
Gazelle - Highly experienced sbt player, always makes finals. If he is not too rusty, he should make it easily.
Send Nudz - One of the smoothest players with some of the prettiest binds. Noodz will just beat OMM and Andrei, but 4th place will be close.
Andrei
OMM
Fini
Force
EU
Appleseed - S tier, has never NOT made it to a finals in sbt LOL
Vov - S tier, always does insane tunnels and never dies. vov could be messing around and still make finals easily
Liz - liz always figures out a way to win. also she does not give a **** about anything so she will be relaxed, leading to better performance
Titanoboa - he will use his triple binds to take the last spot. If he gets to the second 1/2 of a round, he has very high chances of winning it with his 1v1 skills
pyrrhus
Jericho
Johnny
Nemesis
FINALS
Carnage - S tier sumo god
Appleseed - unplayable lag and chokes against Carnage
Vov - S tier sumo god, but his skills are more aligned for TST because he doesnt know how to camp
