O there is one. CLG v Vulc. It's one of those weird thing. For example, I don't think that Curse is ACTUALLY going undefeated all week. But, looking at each match, Curse is the favorite for each. Who might beat them? I don't know. But dig vs Curse with blu-side dig will definitely be close. EDIT: GODDAMMIT WHY IS EVERYONE NINJAING ME.
I also feel the same way about CRS, I kinda feel that they're gonna get their first loss this week but its pretty hard to predict vs who. Watching their scrims they definitely do have some "off" days and look much more beatable, but then again those are mid-week scrims where they just pick whatever so they definitely are not as prepared or refined as their real games.

Curse have said they sometimes mess around during scrims, and caught themselves in bad positions and would have to play from behind. Supposedly thats why they're good at playing from behind (of course the screwing around is unintentionally)

If it were say, a bo5, you could say your prediction is a 3-2 or 3-1 or 3-0 and it suddenly puts more emphasis on how close you think the teams are. Bo1 all you can do is say, yeah this team looks better right now. (And the standings already should tell you that.) Yeah, in sports it's usually complicated by the fact that one team is the Away Team and one is the Home Team. Usually, even if one team is perceived as better than another, the fact that the better team is on the road results in trendy upset picks. In this case, all you can really use to differentiate picks is whether or not someone is on a hot streak or a cold streak. In this case that might mean you could predict CLG to continue their slow trend, or predict Vulcun to continue their hot streak. Actually Blue side win percentage gives us exactly this phenomenon.
They'd have to acknowledge it, and then grant it the same as Home Field Advantage. Which, given asymmetrical map design, I would totally support.

You have all the text in the predictions for Day 2 bolded instead of just the winners.
Also, the past tense of lead is led, not lead. I see this mistake all the time and it bothers me.

These articles are getting better and better, somehow. But I would just like to say that the day 2 predictions are (except for the last one) are really messed up. Might want to edit that.
Thanks guys
