Notes:
Most of us seem to have a feel for how the match will end up turning out, but my are we bad at guessing how each individual game is going to go. Wild Weekend! Two more to go!
Captain Smollett and Levi Mann are about 1 missed tipping away from getting dropped from the standings :O
Sammy B. T. and Mr. Ace Rimmer are somehow tied right now
N-Sunderland has the lead by almost 3 points but
The biggest point difference this weekend was Thomas and Sunderland -> 4.2 points

Alistair MacBain:
Match 1
M1G1 OVW beats Duck 5-4
M2G2 Duck beats OVW 5-3
M3G3 Duck beats OVW 5-3
This could easily go either way. I am sure that both those teams scrimmed alot against each other which makes predictions for everyone not involved with those scrims extremly hard.
I think overall i would give the Ducks the edge but especially Fjords should give the style OVW played in the earlier stages of the tournament the upper hand. THis super aggresive style can easly beat a junker but i think the Ducks know how to beat it. This will be extremely interesting. Its a bid of a early final for me.

Match 2
M1G1 CSRY beats MH 5-3
M2G2 CSRY beats MH 5-4
While both those teams are really good i think Ryders have the edge. They defintetly have more experience in competetive matches and especially Hillerton knows alot of those tricks. The MH pilots are compared to this a bid green. Velvet got experience yes. He flew for the MH and Gents as subcaptain and got his experience from this but Hillerton just got more competetive experience.

And for everyone involved in the scrims. Let's be honest.

TBH, I think there are 4 teams really on top of things ATM. No offense to the hatters or anyone else involved (this tournament has been crazy good) but I think OVW, Mandarins, CsR, and GwTh are pretty much the top tier right now.
I think the Mandarins style was the counter to the GwTh style, and that against almost any other team GwTh would have come out ahead.
CsR have a superbly powerful pair of ships that are being flown with excellent coordination, making them a threat on every map, in any situation.
OVW feels to me like a wildcard every time. I'm not really sure what our style is. We just all mesh really well together and are on top of our game at the moment.

On any given day these teams can lose outside of this tier, but these are the matches I've been looking for the whole time. I'm so nervouscited for this weekend and next.
