WCG. Canadian Qualifiers Predictions

ESE8News

As suggested in my last thread in the comment section, I wanted to give it a go at predicting the Crossfire Canadian Qualifiers.

So here we are, the first Crossfire Canadian Qualifiers. The 6 LAN-going teams are set: in Group A: Expense, FG.Kanata and aihiQQ, as for Group B: YNR, Nikelos, and sprayOPS.Canada. It kind of sucks that only 6 teams will be heading towards this competition, but nether the less this LAN should be exciting to watch. Alas~ make sure to look out for my other Qualifier threads next time.

The count down begins, good luck everyone, and good luck to the teams battling for that final playoff spot!

ESE8 Canadian Qualifiers Match Predictions

Group A

de_blackwidow

aihiQQ

1-0-0

Expense
0-0-2

Prediction: aihiQQ 7 < 10 Expense

A couple of of the top Canadian teams face off in the first group play in the qualifications. If blackout can keep live up to his words and with their roster change:

expense(cdn team) has dropped alvin and added artur. gunna be the team to beat out kanata(2nd best cdn team)

roster is now,

CHRIS
blackout
artur
concept
blindhound

they should be able to take this first game easily. However i wouldn't like to count aihiQQ out, they do have a solid roster and returning lan players such as SLANT and WoTiP but i don't know if it they would be able to stop the "#1 Clutcher at lan" CHRIS, with the dominant player who rang for Undaunted at FGLAN: ARTUR. I do expect to see alot from CHRIS though, he did have a dominant performance at FGLAN, questions is will he be able to keep it up. I don't know the other 3 people for aihiQQ's roster though, but hopefully they also manage to 'do work'.

PTW: CHRIS ; SLANT

FG.Kanata

1-0-0

Expense
0-0-2

Prediction: FG.Kanata 10 > 5 Expense

Sorry expense, but this one is all Kanata. We see the Rivals that gave FGLAN quite a showing combine their dominant forces to take WCG by storm. With BLITZED's brains, MALTE's flank, saintMalice's scope and of cource Best Rifle NA mr Jordan "Ayrin" himself, they should be able to hold it down. Im not sure who takes which side but if expense should have CT first, it could be a closer game. If not my prediction still stands.

PTW: Ayrin ; ARTUR

FG.Kanata

1-0-0

aihiQQ
1-0-0

Prediction: FG.Kanata 10 > 4 aihiQQ

Same as i said for FG vs Expense, but with ankara it comes down to the peaks especially with the wide open areas in the map.

Group B

de_blackwidow

Nikelos

0-0-1

YNR
1-0-0

Prediction: Nikelos 2 < 10 YNR

I can see YNR winning this, with the performance that luWii have out at FGLAN i should expect anything lower from him.
I will edit this one later because i just seached up Nikelos team page but cant seem to find anyone on it. Someone should fill me in i apologize for the less amount of information.

PTW: luWii. ; ?

sprayOPS

0-0-1

YNR
2-0-0

Prediction: sprayOPS 6 < 10 YNR

I took a peek at one of Andrej's stream where he was facing YNR on Mexico and i have to say YNR was very strong on that map (hopefully that online work can happen again onLAN). I dont want to take anything away from sprayOPS seeing other familiar faces of FGLAN including: AYCE, RAYMOND, CHARLES and IPEE(?) i can see them getting the rounds they need, but YNR to still take it.

PTW: oneK ; IPEEZ

SprayOPS

0-0-0

Nikelos
0-0-1

Prediction: SpayOPS 10 > 8 Nikelos

I really cant say much for Nikelos, as i dont know anyone in their roster ATM, so i will update this once i do so..



NOTE* If anyone know how the scoring works for a map (Ex: in WCG.US 10 is the magic number to win hence using 10) Please let me know via PM. Thank you

Wow, that's crazy. Didn't think anyone would be able to challenge Kanata that closely. Thanks for the scores.
