Ladle 70 predictions

Post by Flow »

Curious to see others predictions...

Octa Finals

Redemption: 2
Wild West: 0

Wild West has a pretty good team of sumoers. Good active sumoers for that matter. Don't see them in fort much though, nor do I think they're ready to defeat the reigning champs in the first round.

TeamUnk:1
Crazy Tronners:2

Should be a good few matches. It was pretty hard to decide, I think these teams are pretty evenly matched. I'm giving the edge to CT because they will no doubt have enough players there and I've seen more of them lately.

Immortal Dynasty: 0
Speeders: 2

Speeders has some great individual talent. Immortal Dynasty is still working on fielding a complete ladle team, but I have been seeing much more of them around.

Phoenix Fire:0
Revolver: 2

Phoenix Fire seems to get unlucky in their opening matches (in terms of who they are matched up against). Revolver just has better talent, maybe harsh, but true.

Rogue Tronners: 2
Serenity: 0

Sorry, Serenity, but Rogue Tronners is very experienced and aren't going to lose to a newer bunch of fort players. It's nice to see you guys fielding a team though!

6lu team:-
Phoenix Flame: 0

I predict Phoenix Flame will move on without winning any matches. I don't think 6lu will have enough. Nice to see* a new team in ladle though.

The 70's team: 2
RogueRunnerZ: 1

Unfortunately, I haven't seen much of rZ recently. Maybe I just haven't been on at the right times. Things have seemed to change since Zero stepped down as a leader. I think they'll still be able to get a match in on this hello team I think it's called. Hello team has a bunch of older players, but they haven't been a team for too long. We'll see how they work together.

OOps: 0
UnkTeam: 2

ASHI MVP!!@

Quarter Finals

Redemption: 2
Crazy Tronners: 0

Not much has changed for either team since last ladle. I don't really see any reason why the results won't be the same.

Speeders: 0
Revolver: 2

Speeders doesn't have as good skill as revolver, nor do they work together as well as Revolver. I don't really know what else to say...

Rogue Tronners: 2
Phoenix Flame: 1

I think too many people underestimate Phoenix. I don't think they have the best skill in tron, but I would say that they have the best team work for a ladle team. They're all friends, they have practices and they show it in ladle. I think Phoenix will take a match, but the skill of Rogue Tronners will ultimately win R two matches.

The 70's team: 1
UnkTeam: 2

This should be an interesting match-up. Unk has been doing very well lately, hello team is still getting used to playing together. I think they may steal a match, they may not. Unknown will win though.

Semi-Finals

Redemption: 2
Revolver: 1

Haven't seen much of Revolver besides Concord, but I guess thats pretty normal. Activity doesn't really seem to phase them. Could go either way, but I think Redemption has been working pretty well together and we've been active.

Rogue Tronners: 2
UnkTeam: 1

Another very good match-up. They both have fairly equal skill. I can't really predict this one, I'm going with my gut though and say Rogue.

Finals

Redemption: 2
Rogue Tronners: 1

Called me biased, sure. It's my honest prediction though. Gazelle will take revenge on Titan for the BRAWL loss.

Octa Finals:

Redemption Vs. Wildwild West (2-0): Ww is looking good, but its unfortunate that they were faced with the top seed in ladle :/

TeamuNk Vs. Crazy Tronners (0-2): uNks' secondary team will not be an issue for ct this time.

Immortal Dynasty Vs. Speeders (0-2): ID, like Ww, is not there quite yet, better luck next time.

Phoenix Fire Vs. Revolver (0-2): even with 28+ players, Phoenix hasn't proved that they have the skill to beat a giant like revolver.

Rogue Tronners Vs. Serenity (2-0): I am glad that serenity had joined us in fortress! I don't expect them to win, but they will get tons of help from RT

6lu team Vs. Phoenix Flame (1-2): 6lu team is also new, do they have what It takes to beat phoenix flame? idk

Roadrunnerz Vs. The 70s team (1-2): Vinny is not showing up this ladle, automatic loss for no ragers on RZ :(

OOps Vs. uNkteam (0-2): Ashis team is just stuck with players that are not experienced enough.

Quarter Finals:

Redemption Vs. Crazy Tronners (1-2): I disagree that redemption simply has better players than ct, I think ct can pull off a win, with an upset rd.

Speeders Vs. Revolver (2-1): another close match, Speeders has been revitalized, and with that an array of talent that can beat revolver, could go either way, but I like an underdog.

Rogue tronners Vs Phoenix Flame (2-0): like I said with phoenix fire, there skill is still unfortunately at the same level, whether they have team work or not, they won't get any better if they don't start training more.

the 70s Team Vs uNkteam (2-1): Appleseed rages and calls everyone gay, ladle is over. :)

Semi Finals:

Crazy Tronners Vs. Speeders (2-1): THis is tough, and I am probly being biased, but this is just a classic match where these two teams clash and battle harder than any other. these teams are the 2 oldest teams in ffortress, why not make it interesting ;)

The 70s Team Vs. Rogue tronners: (0-2) another toss up, either 70s team will win 2 nothing, or rogue will, and seeing rogues performance, I give it to them.

Championship:

Crazy Tronners Vs. Rogue tronners (1-2): Congrats on the win rogue!! also, we have rogue tronners and crazy tronners, where are all the loyal normal tronners?

Octa

RD 2 - WW 0
Ww probably has potential of becoming real good but it's not there yet

Team.uNk 1 - CT 2
Could go either way, giving it to J-Dawg because I liked his lovely predictions

ID 0 - SP 2
Nothing to say here

Phoenix Fire 0 - Revolver 2
Nothing to say here

_~R~_ 2 - Seren. 0
Nothing to say here

Phoenix Flame 2 - 6lu 0
Phoenix has some ladle experience

70 2 - rZ 1
rZ isn't that active, and 70 looks pretty pro

Ops 0 - uNkTeam 2
Sorry


Quarter

RD 0 - CT 2
Upset, CT wants this one

Sp 1 - Revolver 2
Revolver should handle this, SP might get a match though

_~R~_ 2 - Phoenix Flame 0
Yeah

70 0 - uNkTeam 2
insa, raph, ogo probably won't be 100%, orion usually lags. Pressure will be 70's carry, but the uNk team is too solid


Semi

CT 0 - Revolver 2
Revolver has great teamwork.

_~R~_ 0 - uNkTeam 2
I'm not gonna lie, Rogues have awesome sweep but uNk sweepers can probably match them. If garbage is held back and unk's attackers are communicating well, this should be the score


Finals

Revolver 1 - uNkTeam 2
Not sure who's showing up for Revolver, if 1200/xyron/hoax shows up then they could probably get some classic pro sweeping done. But sometimes Revolver switches players around, which I think is both a strength and weakness. Not all teams can switch around players and still be pretty much equally productive on the field. Sumo skill is probably equal between the teams, we'll see how it goes

Octa Finals

Redemption: 2
Wild West: 0

Wild West is looking solid this ladle, unlucky that they're facing us the first round. They're just not there yet.

TeamUnk:1
Crazy Tronners:2

Both teams are pretty evenly matched, but because of CT's recent Bowl victory I have faith they can pull it off.

Immortal Dynasty: 0
Speeders: 2

Nothing to see here......

Phoenix Fire:0
Revolver: 2

Poor phoenix facing Revolver right away again....not good enough to win it yet.

Rogue Tronners: 2
Serenity: 0

Welcome to ladle Serenity! Sorry you had to face this powerhouse.

6lu team:0
Phoenix Flame: 2

If 6lu shows up they won't stand a chance against this fortress team, glad to see you in ladle though.

The 70's team: 2
RogueRunnerZ: 0

RoadrunnerZ has been quite inactive recently. The Hello Team's roster is looking very solid and I'm pretty confident they can sweep a 2-0.

OOps: 0
UnkTeam: 2

<3 Ashi

Quarter Finals

Redemption: 2
Crazy Tronners: 0

After much talk of CT winning last time around Redemption was able to defeat them 2-0. As long as the performances are similar I don't see the results being any different.

Speeders: 0
Revolver: 2

Speeders are looking much stronger but even with this newer team I don't think they have what it takes to take down Revolver.

Rogue Tronners: 2
Phoenix Flame: 0

Sorry Phoenix, Rogue is too good.

The 70's team: 1
UnkTeam: 2

Hello team is looking good, but not good enough to defeat uNk, especially with addition of apple this ladle.

Semi-Finals

Redemption: 2
Revolver: 1

This is always a fun match, Revolver is strong but I think the reigning champs can take them.

Rogue Tronners: 2
UnkTeam: 1

A really even match that could obviously go either way. I'm not sure how Red attacking will change the outcome, but I think that the sweeper filling in for him will do just as well.

Finals

Redemption: 1
Rogue Tronners: 2

Grats on making finals. Match could go either way.

Octafinals

Wild West: 2
Redemption: 1

We pull a huge upset here; we have been extremely active lately and improving a lot. Of course, this is completely biased, but I'm feeling this victory. Also, it'd be hard to finish these predictions if I didn't pick us in the first round.

Team uNk: 0
Crazy Tronners: 2

I can't see CT losing after coming off of a few pretty solid ladles and a memorable bowl.

ID: 0
Speeders: 2

ID has some good players, but Speeders will overwhelm them. No contest here.

Phoenix Fire: 1
Revolver 2:

I really think Phoenix can pull a match. They've been playing well lately, and, although they have no superstars, their teamwork is excellent and I can see Revolver's rust at the beginning losing them the first match.

Rogue Tronners: 2
Serenity: 0

Ninja gets -300 points.

Phoenix Flame: 2
6lu: 0

Even if 6lu shows, Phoenix is strong enough to dispatch them easily.

The 70's team: 2
RogueRunnerZ: 1

I just haven't been seeing enough of rZ lately to trust them to pull this off; however, I think this could go either way, and they'll take a match.

OOps: 0
uNkteam: 2

Ashi gets 40 points each match but it's not enough :P.

Quarterfinals

Wild West: 2
Crazy Tronners: 1

Call me biased (I am), but I really think this is a great chance for us to make a run. It will again be very close.

Speeders: 0
Revolver: 2

After seeing Revolver in action many a ladle, I can't see them losing to an admittedly improved Speeders team.

Rogue Tronners: 2
Phoenix Flame: 0

Nothing to say here.

The 70's team: 2
uNkTeam: 1

I think that Hello team pulls an upset here; apple rqs.

Semifinals

Wild West: 2
Revolver: 1

Another great match. We get revenge for the last three ladle defeats at the hands of them :D.

Rogue Tronners: 2
The 70's team: 0

Hello team is good, and this will be close, but I think Rogue takes it in 2.

Finals

Wild West: 1
Rogue Tronners: 2

Our improbable run stops here. Gg.

Note: if you want my objective predictions, replace all of the "Wild West"'s with "Redemption" (and vice versa -- I still think we'll take at least a match either way).

My predictions..

Opening Round

Redemption vs Ww 2-0: Tweezy causes his team to lose, cries as roter spits on his "mighty" defense, he then rages like he did at brawl and complains about starting 20 minutes early.. All in All, Ww is new and cant compete with the defending champs..

Ok this got boring only wanted to do RD vs WW anyways..

Final Predictions: Redemption wins again, Liz rages on stream, that's if she shows up (god lets hope not, LOL!).

Before you say im biased, im not im just confident.

Oh and appleseed causes UNK to lose opening round due to his amazing fortress skillz :D
