Season 8 Predictions Thread

[DaigaroOgami]

Mastercheesers vs Boomstick

Cheesers to win comfortably; hopefully Moose takes out a few rats.

Spiders vs Team Shrek

Spiders.

Wonderz vs Ducklingz

An utterly engrossing 1-1 draw, then a skink scoring in OT, 56924 turns later.

Bad Elfs vs Fables

If ID3 is on form then this could be quite the match. But, NJ so Dark Vomit Inducers to win.

[Gandalf]

Mastercheesers vs Boomsticklers

The Skaven begin their journey to redemption by beating the slow lumbering boomstickers.

Spiders vs Team Shrek

It keeps happening so I'll just predict it here. Ogres to roll shocking dice in the first 4 turns thus ending the match as a contest. Elves to win. Now I will be less sad if/when it does happen

Wonderz vs Ducklingz

The two undefeated teams meet! Something's gotta give.... I'll go for Orcs. They've got all the skills needed to beat the Lizards. How will the Lizard's inducements perform? Will the orcs manage to stretch themselves to score more than their regulation one touchdown?

notj vs fables

In the week's late kick-off, lots of people hit each other, the Fables! have a player killed/forcibly retired, and the match goes to overtime, before notjarvis eventually wins.

------------

Prediction bonus point available to anyone who gets all 7 cup matches correct. Good luck!

[Raveen]

Mastercheesers vs Boomsticklers

Got to be the Cheesegrubbers. 3-0

Spiders vs Team Shrek

The elves should win, but how many will make it through to the semis? 3-1

Wonderz vs Ducklingz

Tricky. 1-0 to the Duckz

Bad for thy Elf vs Feebles!

Dark Elves are looking good so I'll call for them to win 2-0

Oof! Predictions!

Elfs vs Lizards
Hard to know what to think here. Rav is a bit of a cup specialist, winning something like 50% of all our cups, so you’d want to back him. Idan is the reigning league champion, so you’d probably also want to back him. The elves are top top scorers, but the lizards are stronger and aren’t exactly rubbish at scoring themselves. But I think the lizards may have some MNG players? So it’ll probably be decided on how many elves leave the pitch and how quickly. I’m going to go for elfs, to set up (spoiler alert!) an elf vs elf final. Probably 3-2 or something like that.

Bad Elfs vs Skaven
I watched some of the Bad Elf vs Necro quarter final, and didn’t like what I saw. AV 12 until turn 15, and a levelled assassin who would be mostly useless against any team who isn’t mostly AV7. Anyway, Dark elves are solid, and NJ is more than solid, and the TVs are quite evenly matched – I expect it will be 2-1 to the Elves.

[Gandalf]

Elf vs Lizards
This Lizardmen team have NEVER LOST A MATCH. Come on guys, someone do it!!! However I think this elf team will struggle... wrestle/guard will help a lot against the sauruses, and the elves have no wrestle and 1(?) guard. Lizards to win.

Bad Elfs vs Skaven
This goes to overtime when.... notjarvis wins, following la's reasoning.

[Red Lion Three]

Elf vs Lizards - 2-3

Bad Elfs vs Skaven - 2-3

[Raveen]

Elf vs Lizards - 2-1

Bad Elfs vs Skaven - 2-3

[DaigaroOgami]

I predict NJ vs Idan in the final and Idan does the first double.

[Gandalf]

I predict a team of elves will win the final!

These two coaches met in the season 5 final which saw notjarvis' lizardmen play Raveen's Khemri. I think Rav won that day (BBDB tells me it finished 1-1, errr OK...) so I will go for notjarvis this time round.

[Red Lion Three]

Ok, I'll go for Rav's not-so-dark elves 3-2.

[Raveen]

I'll match RL, Spiders win 3-2.

[notjarvis]

Pfft I'm doomed.

Me and Rav. rotate wins and defeats generally (OK he drew with me last season, but for halflings - that's pretty much a win). I won the last game, I'll lose this one.
QED.
Can't argue with logic

[DaigaroOgami]

Vomitball final.

Let's all hope a huge fireball obliterates both teams and we can all rejoice in elf death and the moral victory.

[lawastooshort]

Bad elves to win.

[lawastooshort]

I'm bit tired, but someone should stir up some cup final fever. Yeah!
