Genie predicts the CEG XiAn playoffs

CEG Xi'An is ongoing, and there are only a few matches left in the group stage - two spots is still to be determined - but apart from those matches, here I will personally give you a slight bit of my truth, who do I think will win?



CEG Xi'An predictions
Italic - slight winner | Bold - certain winner

China mouz.Fly100% China WE.inFi
Not saying that inFi is in any way a bad player (the other way around), I can see Fly win this match. Fly is really, and I mean really, hot right now and he might have a good chance on going top 3. Let's see, we'll put him under "slight winner" - italic.

China Colorful.LL China Colorful.Lyc
Two of the Colorful Night elves are up against each other, still I don't see how LL could win it. Lyc is amazing right now, and he will break LL down, despite his victory against Sai in the group stage.

China WE.Sky South Korea MYM]Moon
Wow, a real showdown so early on in the tournament? My fellow editorial member SteniS stated his opinion on how badly the brackets looked like, with almost all the top players in the first half of the tree. Anyway, as for this match, I won't even dare to state a winner. It's pretty even between the two of them, but I think Sky can work his magic.

South Korea BeT.FoV South Korea MYM]Susiria
Two good Undead players of which I do see a certain winner. Susiria hasn't really shown any good results lately, except for some wins again Orc. FoV might not be on fire, but he sure has the upper hand in this match.

South Korea BeT.Check China WE.suhO
Yet another hard-to-predict game. I'll dare, though, to put suhO as the favorite. He is strong, while Check has been strong but is going up and down skill-wise all the time.

China wNv.Sai China WE.TED
Two players I personally lost faith in a while back, but reclaimed it not long ago. TED has had a long down-time now, and I'm pleased with his latest results and expecting him to show more of it. Sai on the other side won last CEG at the Wuhan stop. I have a huge faith in him right now, he should be able to fight his way to top 6 in my opinion.

China Colorful.Ace China wNv.xiaOt
I do not have a big trust in xiaOt right now, but if he doesn't win this match, he simply has to do something harsh. Ace is not a world class player like many others in this tournament, so he shouldn't be able to get further than this.

China WE.DuCui China Syc
Worst match up in this round? Seems so. I seldom see Syc winning versus any good players, but neither do I see DuCui doing so. The orc is still a carrier of the World Elite tag, which is all the information I need to put an italic on him.
