I LOL'd! Anyway, you know why I got back into DoD. More importantly, I'm not even that active as I once was. Anyways lemme get the broken shit up and running again:
Invite
5.5 Men > megas
As much that I fucking love Milo and Chuck, THUNDER core is just too strong on a map such RR2. They don't have Dorito this time (though he is on their roster) but they have Jules and Taylor. They're both playing amazingly well throughout the past seasons and judging by the end round screenshots I saw, they won't let the trend to cease so close to a undefeated season (5.5 won last season but they lost to xternal's (bannedlolololbanned) team). Anyway, I don't expect otherwise this win to be achieved lightly. Megas have frankie and cableguy, which can (and will be) a secure reason to say that this is Invite's MOTW.
Final score: 5.5 Men by 1 cap worth of points.
Players to watch: Jules, Taylor, Milo, Greetz
angryface > NewTeam
Roster-wise speaking, there is no way to deny that the Pinto brother's team have an edge here. It's slighly, but they do. I don't know who are they starters but I assume that at least 5 of them are cK- vertex BNP Austin and Hobbler. And these 5 kids destroys everyone whenever they scrim, 12man, etc (minus cK- sometimes
). However, RR2 isn't pretty much a pure skill based map and when we have such a map, the teamplay gathered across the years playing together (KevinEdmunds) combined with CAL(rrupt) experience (MilleRiopelle) can also bring some upset. Who could possibly bet that these
sand-baggers fine group of gentlemen would be the #3 seed on invite? So, it's not quite far that they can perform the underdogs trick and spoil cK-'s dream of beating THUNDER.
Final score: Angryface by 50+- pts.
Players to watch: Vertex, Hobbler, Stealth, Jackson/InSaNe
Main
92DT > LIVEVIL
Although Nunz is all about being the coolest kid on 1911 nowadays, like I've said when I was interviewed by nhoj' I expect 92DT to win Main quite easily. They're playing absolutely well and despite the rumours that poo56 hacks, they're playing very consistent. LivEvil in the other hand are relying on the experience of two great players (Brandon N. and MoJeRz) and that's been working thus far. And talking specifically about Bewton, he seems to be into a very good shape, getting crucial frags in many moments of his team matches. I don't expect this to a be total blowout but I'm very confident that 92DT will dominate both halves, with Subject locking mid down.
Final score: 92DT by 100+- pts.
Players to watch: subjecT, TheBear, Bewton, TheMattRoJeRz
NoGo
GLHF @ NeT
Since I got back into playing (<3 TinBad) I can't deny I was expecting to have a rematch against Khoi's squad. I've been catapultated into our Week 1 match against them but I just joined the server on the 2nd Half. We got wrecked during the first half but we were down of 1 player. It's such a coincidence that we are due to play against NoGo in the same map. I don't know if I'll be able to play nor if our so called starters will show up but this time around I can guarantee that we will have 6 during the entire match. Oh, I hope Andry Sheen cheats so that we can dispute him and advance
Final score: Either teams with a very small margin of points (10+-)
Players to watch: Mino, Andy Sheen, tsT, Pdx
