Alistair MacBain:
G1: Mandarin beats CSR 5-1
G2: Mandarin beats CSR 5-2
G3: CSR beats Mandarin 5-4
G4: Mandarin beats CSR 5-4
G5: ------------------------------
Mandarins will probably have the upper hand on fjords. Their usual aggresive rush when the game starts will give them the upper hand and allow them to react to anything CSR wants to do.
The map is just to open to sucessfully charge the mandarins. They are aware of the angles and they will move as soon as they see CSR moving into position.
Paritan will be a bid better for CSR but the higher altitudes still grant to much open field to approach the Mandarins.
Canyon ambush however with all the hard cover and clouds will probably give CSR the ability to get an approach on the Mandarins. They might loose the first engagement but once they know the Mandarin positioning they will most likely get some good charges on the Mandarins.
Duel can get interesting but the superior midrange fighting the ducks are able to do will probably give them the upper hand. They dont fear a CSR charge when they can disable one enemy ship and just outbrawl the charging opponent.
I would love to see Dunes and i actually think the experience in superlongrange fights CSR has with their old dual mobula style could give them the advantage.
I am super excited for this games and im sure it will be great to watch.
PS: redria you mixed up the numbers for game 4 and 5. You called both game 3 aswell ;).

Ahhh but then if Allien' predicts that CsR wins 2 matches, I lose to him. Also, do I bet against my actual prediction (sorry CsR :/)for a shot at winning?
Ah, why not. Let's make this a game. :D
G1: CsR def Duck 5-3
G2: CsR def Duck 5-4
G3: CsR def Duck 5-4
G4: ---
G5: ---
With regards to this, Paritan and Canyon should favor the mandarins.
Fjords favors the mandarins if we see pyramidions, but mobulas could make things interesting. However, with large height range mandarins should still have the advantage.
Mandarins should hope the match doesn't go past 3 games since they have troubles on Duel and Dunes probably favors the mobula builds CsR has taken previously.
Overall I see the mandarins winning. But that's not why we're here, is it?
CsR in 3 matches! New outfit, here I come!

Bah. Oh well.
Skrimskraw:
none of the teams show up 0-0
Alistair MacBain:
Would need to predict pretty different from Sunderland. But thats not how i think the games will actually end.
I stay with my predicitons.
I also dont need another outfit that much ^^.
If i ever want another one i can play in a devmatch or just buy it. Even if im thinking of a new dye for one of my outfits. But i dont want to delete the current one so i stay with it for now :D.

G1: Mandarins def CsR 5-2
G2: CsR def Mandarins 5-3
G3: CsR def Mandarins 5-2
G4: Mandarins def CsR 5-1
G5: CsR def Mandarins 5-4
I feel that Mandarins will have the advantage on the more open maps(Fjords/DaD) with their artemis/hades junkers, while CsR will be able to maneuver the tighter maps and spring heavy ambushes. In the end CsR takes the final game on the most open map with a clutch final kill after a 4-4 tie.
