anyway if this was to actually go down these would be my predictions
round 1 winners
sonicfox vs deg222 - this can really go either way. deg has a slight edge due to the matchup but i think sonicfox would take it in a really close set
perfect legend vs whiteboi - depends on who carl plays and how prepared he is with that character but i would say whiteboi would probably win.
kdz vs noobe - noobe would definitely take this. kdz is a good player but he doesn't play much injustice anymore
jupiter vs honeybee - although the matchup is in honeybee's favor, i still like jupiter here by a little bit. i don't think honeybee has beaten jupiter in tournament yet and at TFC it was pretty one sided from what i remember. don't remember if they played each other at nec or not and i can't find a video so i assume they didn't.
theo vs saltface - i dont think saltface has a shot unless he picks doomsday. even if he does, i still like theo here
pig vs ppj - another one that can go either way. really depends on who ppj plays, but honestly at this point, i know he plays way more characters than i have seen him play so i can't comment on that, but i would say pig has an edge being a character specialist.
foreverking vs gross - i like king here personally, he has had a very successful run in injustice and has been one of the better players throughout the game's lifespan but gross has been putting in a lot of work lately. could go either way as well
16bit vs djt - unfamiliar with the matchup but on paper it seems like lantern probably has a slight advantage. two really good players that would go down to the wire but if i had to pick one i would go with djt
round 1 losers
deg vs perfect legend - i definitely like deg here but i wouldn't put it past carl that he wins
kdz vs honeybee - i dont think kdz has beaten honeybee before. i think honeybee would take this one pretty decisively
saltface vs ppj - i think saltface has a good shot here. i personally think hes one of the best fundamental players in the game. like most of these matches its up in the air but i like saltface by a bit.
gross vs 16bit - although gross has been putting in a lot of work lately, 16bit has a much better tournament record and has been consistently attending locals and winning or placing high. i like 16bit here
winners round 2
sonicfox vs whiteboi - i like sonic fox here but this match is going to have a stupid amount of buttons pressed. not sure how the matchup goes but i would assume that batwheel gives doomsday a lot of problems.
noobe vs jupiter - going to go down to the wire but i can totally see noobe not giving jupiter any respect and jupiter being unable to close it out.
theo vs pig - i like theo here by a little bit. the matchup seems like it would be pretty even. reason why i like theo here is because i feel like he is more patient than pig, and actually one of the most patient players in the game. all depends on who lands the first hit really.
djt vs foreverking - this one is tough to call. however, i like djt here a little bit. i can see king losing patience however i can also see him clutching it out. also can go either way
losers round 2
16bt vs deg - lol aquaman vs catwoman
pig vs honeybee - don't know how to call this one but i think zod wins by a little bit. depends on if honeybee is able to get a knockdown early and how on point his okizeme is. if i had to choose one i would say pig.
jupiter vs saltface - gonna be tough to call. i honestly don't think saltface would stick harley the whole way through, probably after losing 1 or 2 he would go doomsday, but i feel like he would be able to get a game or two off with her. kinda like saltface here by a tad bit. i feel like with doomsday's armor he would be a lot more confident in the match and hes a very momentum based player, which doomsday favors his playstyle. however, whatever happens, i feel like matches where doomsday is played would be pretty one sided in either direction. up in the air as well
whiteboi vs gross - i like whiteboi here. gross would put up a really good fight though. i feel like whiteboi's experience will have him win in the end
winners semis
sonicfox vs noobe - like i mentioned before, i like batgirl against doomsday. i think sonic fox would take this
theo vs djt - this would probably be one of the best matches before finals. i like theo here but i think djt still has a very good shot
losers round 3
deg vs pig - don't know if these two played before, i can see pig clutching this one out though
saltface vs whiteboi - i feel liek saltface would have a lot of confidence in this match playing whiteboi's character as well. not sure if they have played before but i feel like saltface would be able to clutch it out by a bit.
losers semis
pig vs saltface - as far as i know, pig hasn't beaten saltface in tournament, at least in a major, idk about locals. based on that i like saltface.
winners finals
sonicfox vs theo - i think theo would be able to break sonicfox's win streak but i really don't know. if theo wins here i feel like he would win the tournament. if sonicfox wins then he will win the tournament i feel
losers finals
saltface vs theo or sonicfox - i don't think saltface would beat either of them, so it doesn't matter who they play. i feel like he would have a better chance against sonicfox than theo just based on playstyle but regardless, i dont see him making grand finals
grand finals
sonixfox vs theo - whoever is in winners. i dont see either of these guys winning 2 sets, but i do think there would be a reset
