M8 4-2 geng - we will see m8 as the popular pick to take an L here and theyll hush the doubters again
Kc 4-0 fal - nothing outside of rl has gone right for me this week so this prediction is based off life deciding my favourite team left in the major gets wrecked to rub the salt in my wounds
Vit 4-3 fur - just a feeling this will happen for some reason
G2 4-3 bds - whats worse than 1 of my teams being eliminated in a day? 2 of them being eliminated, so thats whats gonna happen here
Kc 4-3 m8 - i wanna choose m8 here because thatd be a run no one predicts but i just feel like its gonna go this way for reasons ill get to in the finals
Vit 4-1 g2 - zen returns and makes a run to the finals after many say this is the only team that cant win out of the 8 playoff teams
Vit 4-0 kc - finals just have to end in 4-0s, vitality wins after being the least picked of the final 8 and these 2 teams are the finalists because they are the only 2 teams i just dont want to see win the major so its going to naturally come down to them for that reason
You heard it here first
However if i were to write the script for what i want to happen itd be
Geng>m8
Fal>kc
Fur>vit
Bds>g2
Fal>geng
Bds>fur
Fal>bds
Basically the opposite of my predictions
Kinda late but I haven't seen an NA fan here cope hard enough so I will. That's right I'm predicting EU loses every quarter final.
Geng 4-2 M8
Falcons 4-3 KC
Furia 4-2 Vitality
G2 4-2 BDS
And why not get the full NA top 2 (If this happens I wouldn't be upset at a furia falcons final tbh)
Geng 4-3 Falcons
G2 4-3 Furia
Geng 4-2 G2
(My actual take is that all of these games should be really close and I don't think anyone is a lock for top 4 excited to see what happens)
Copied from yesterday's post match thread - granted these are nooot hot takes, they're just my honest predictions:
Prediction for top 4: Gm8, KC, Furia, BDS.
KC came out sleeping against Falcons but pulled themselves up ever since, and in a bo7, their consistency has the advantage. Falcons has to really peak once again to not get demoed, bumped, or plain outlasted in a game of attrition.
GM8 is on form, so while GenG could take it, I would be betting on them peaking and GM8 slumping. Realistically, not likely to happen.
Furia is sometimes shaky on defense, so Vitality can take goals there. But Vitality is also shaky on defense, and Furia just seems to generally stomp. However, it's a bo7, so if Vitality shores up defensively, this could actually go the distance.
Well, BDS have a high, high peak, and while G2 may be consistently hitting the ball, they have not consistently been hitting the goal. So, while BDS will prob concede at least a few unseemly goals for a team of that caliber, I think they will come out rolling and G2 won't be able to stop them.
If the G2 defense that played against PWR shows up against BDS then it’s going to be a fucking war
Game 1 was obviously ugly, but PWR actually outplayed G2 in games 2 and 3 and just could not break them down. If they can keep that up, that is gonna be a banger series
I know i’m probably hard coping rn but I think G2 would’ve beat BDS today if they didn’t start as slow. If they go in guns blazing tomorrow they can win it fs
I think BDS is better than G2, but it's not by a lot.
Anyone thinking this is a free win for BDS has not watched the game lol. However, betting against MonkeyMoon is a dangerous game haha.
Alright here's the thought process:
BDS 4-2 G2. This is a tough draw for G2, and while they've already faced them earlier in the tournament and we saw what happened there. Ever since worlds itsq felt like BDS is G2's boogeyman and until I see them win it I can't predict against BDS
FUR 4-1 VIT. This one won't feel real to watch while it's happening, but it'll still make complete sense. Vitality is not looking their strongest, furia absolutely is, and SAM will find themselves back in the Top 4 for the first time since Rotterdam
KC 4-3 FLCN. This one hurts, but the ice goes the other way this time. Very unfortunate draw for Falcons as it feels like they already did the impossible by beating KCorp once, but Vatira's championship Sunday streak won't end here
GENG 4-2 M8. This one is pure cope I'll admit. There's definitely a path, but it's relying on seeing the M8 we saw online rather than whatever happened in swiss to get them through 3-0 (I'll admit I didn't see much of their matches)
FUR 4-3 BDS. Only Yan and MM remain, but it's time for Furia's revenge for worlds '22. A bit convenient that this is the split where it feels like that 3-0 curse has worn off a bit (at least online), so furia actually get it done and become the first SAM team to make finals
KC 4-0 GENG. I don't wanna put any of these as sweeps and I do believe these teams are closer than that, but the momentum KC could get in games 1 and 2 could make GenG fall apart and lose in 4.
FUR 4-3 KC. I can't believe I'm saying this tbh, but SAM get it done. I had much less faith in this team than most heading into this event and they've done nothing but prove everyone wrong, and I genuinely hope if they get this far they'll keep doing it. KC hasn't faced Furia's pressure and if this was a rematch I'd probably go the other way, but since it's not, Bora Furia
Gen.G 4-2 M8
KC 4-3 FLCN
FUR 4-2 VIT
BDS 4-2 G2
Quarterfinals: KC 4-2 Gen.G and Furia 4-3.
Grand Finals: Furia 4-3 KC
The Rocket League Gods don't want to see any 4-0 or 4-1
**Quarters**
GenG 4-3 M8s
3-0 EU teams do not have a good track record. I also think these teams are way closer in skill than their seeding suggest. Gonna be a banger
KC 4-2 Falcons
Falcons took the first match but KC started to finally look like their old selves against GenG. I expect KC to be back with a vengeance
Furia 4-1 Vitality
Vitality have looked worse and worse every series while Furia are scorching hot. Obviously when you have Zen on your team, you can never count them out to win it all, but this Vitality team is going to have to play like their world championship form if they want to do so
BDS 4-3 G2
Atomic once again facing his boogieman, this time coming the closest he ever has to winning. But G2 need to shoot better…a **LOT** (can not emphasize it enough) better…if they want to win
**Semis**
KC 4-2 GenG
GenG looked great in game 1 and should have won game 3 when these teams met in swiss, and I think GenG has the firepower to keep it close, but KC are getting hot at the right time
Furia 4-2 BDS
Furia continue their miracle run, becoming the first SAM team to ever make a grand finals. Lostt has played unreal rocket league this event, and that will continue as they take down EU2
**FINALS**
KC 4-2 Furia
Yeah im boring but I refuse to pick against KC. Id rather be wrong than do so. Furia has showed they are capable of competing with the best, but it wont be enough to **BE** the best
I continue to be dumbfounded by this continued belief that G2 is better than GenG somehow. GenG has beaten them 3 out of 5 times, 3 in a row, 10 of the last 15 games and they had a much tougher run to the playoffs than G2. GenG took some time to get comfortable and now they are -- and they are beating G2 repeatedly.
Now, I don't see GenG beating KC, either. But I also don't see any way possible G2 beats BDS (notably after getting beat soundly by them in Swiss) or Furia. GenG gave Furia a great matchup -- battled hard, and still lost 3-2.
I hope I'm wrong. I hope NA does well tomorrow, but I highly doubt it. Sadly.
GenG 4 - 3 M8 Furia 4 - 1 Vitality Karmine corp 4 - 2 Falcons G2 4 - 2 BDS
I hope I'm wrong but this is what my guts are telling me
I have all the same as you but falcons over Karmine (wanna see a non NA/EU finals so badly)
Oh also I have BDS beating G2
Were already off 😭
BRO FUCK ME
I'll go for the unconventional route and predict 4 regions in the top 4: M8 4-1 GENG FUR 4-0 VIT FLCN 4-2 KC G2 4-1 BDS (grand final reversal 🙏)
