Giant Pea Shooters (0 Points) vs The Dream Team (0 Points)

I originally wrote that GPS would win this in 3, but I stopped halfway and then wrote the match up between SXP and BST while rethinking the battle between Stab and DS.  The key reason I am going to pick TDT is Dranzer.  He played very good last week and great during his championship last season, however I still have not seen enough to be certain he can handle the difficulties of this weeks map.  This is a map where communication is essential and everyone will need to be involved as there are so many exits and entrances and hiding spots.  I would love to see him prove me wrong, but because of these reasons I have to go with DS, Turska, DingDang or Alpha over Stab, Torvald, Dranzer, AVC.

2-0 TDT

Sexual Panthers (4 Points) vs Best Ever (4 Points)

Congrats to RoSKing on his much deserved week 1 MVP selection on WDL radio.   Week 1 showed us that BST has the makings of a team destined for the playoffs.  RoS on offense guarantees captures and the FSN / Starrk tandem is a very strong defensive wall.  They have the ability to provide constant pressure on offense and have shown the ability to adjust to the opponents strategy.  Will this be enough to take a victory from the reigning World Champions?  My answer is no.  SXP synergy is real.  This SXP I believe is stronger and smarter than last years SXP.  All of these players have played together before and they trust each other and their strategy.  I think this map has enough chaos in it to lead to a 3 round match up but I feel the stronger team will prevail and SXP will win in 3.

2-1 SXP

[Ralphis]

2-1 SXP
