EMEA:
FPX vs Gambit: Biased 2-0 FPX, Actual 2-1 FPX(somewhat close maps I think these teams are good at their map picks and have limited map pool) ✓
Guild vs Acend: 2-1 Acend(I think not praccing with cNed won't hurt them a lot but it may affect a few rounds; they should still win out)
LDNU vs BIG: 2-0 BIG(Sorry boo but can't lose to NAVI like that. Also BIG has too much potential.)
BBL vs Fnatic: 2-0 Fnatic(Big surprise here)
G2 vs SMB: 2-0 G2(Huge surprise here)
NAVI vs Liquid: 2-1 Liquid(Both teams lost but I think Liquid can still edge out NAVI.)
NA:
Knights vs Sentinels: 2-0 Sentinels(Should be free for Streamertinels.)
Evil Geniuses vs Luminosity: 2-1 Luminosity(Big slugfest between T1.5 teams. Interesting matchup if not at the highest level.)
XSET vs Cloud9: 2-0 Cloud9(I like the XSET players and mentality but C9 is just stronger individually and teamwork-wise.)
Rise vs Version1: 2-1 Rise(I think this match could go either way. I just felt V1 faced a weaker opponent so I can't really base my predictions off Week 1 only.)
NRG vs OpTic: 2-1 OpTic(OpTic definitely fell off a bit but they still outclass NRG by a bit. Also could go both ways.)
100 Thieves vs Guard: 2-1 100 Thieves(Trent is amazing but the expectation for 100T is that they win out here.)
BR:
Sharks vs NIP: 2-1 Sharks(The teamwork of the Sharks and the Portuguese players surprised me last week vs VK.)
FURIA vs Ingaming: 2-0 FURIA(Should be a comfortable win for FURIA before their BYE week.)
Liberty vs LOUD: 2-1 LOUD(Liberty has a good team culture but LOUD has better players and coaching staff, etc.)
TBK Esports vs Gamelanders Blue: 2-0 Gamelanders Blue(While I wasn't impressed by GLB last week, TBK aren't on the same level as the GLB players fresh from NA BootCamp.)
Bump for good luck in ranked
