Today is the start of the main event! What are your predictions for Thursday's matches?
iG vs Mouz
Liquid vs Newbee
DC vs VGJ
VP vs IG Vitality
I'm pretty much just going with the safe picks, I guess. I can't see any scenario in which Mouz will upset iG--they have looked pretty terrible since their run at The Boston Major. Liquid also has looked quite poor lately, but I'll still pick them for no good reason. They seem to just run the same couple of strategies over and over to mixed success. They also have a terrible record when matches go 40+ minutes (IIRC, Nahaz mentioned it was the worst among all teams in this event). I love me some Miracle though. I haven't really watched much of DC or VGJ lately, so that is a blind pick. VP has looked really strong, but CIS teams have a patented way to fuck up completely...I don't think iG Vitality will have it in them to pull off an upset, but I can see VP losing in the next round instead.
