For me Blacklist Rivalry have upper hand in this match, their team chemistry is now good and they showed it to the last game. They are in the middle of the standings with 1 Win and 3 losses while the Geek slate have 0 win and 4 losses. We can already see who has the upper hand in this matchup. For me, SKEM is struggling so there is a high chance that Blacklist can pull this thing out.
SMG VS Army Geniuses +1.5 or Match winner - LOST
SMG is so strong, they 2-0 the Army geniuses, I though that the AG will have the game number 1 because they have good intro game wherein the pudge and nature's prophet have good farming and laning stage. But they struggle in the mid game and teh SMG fully take over the game 1. In game number 2, yowe picked Tinker again but it is not enough to tie the match, the SMG really destroyed the AG in game number 2.
Blacklist Rivalry VS Geek Slate +1.5 or Match winner - WIN
I thought that the blacklist will be 0-2 with the matchup between geekslate, but they did a good run where they achieved reverse sweep. In game number 1, Raven has a good farm and aslo laning stage but Karl and Kuku are both gap in their lane and for me it is the reason why they lose in the game number 1. The blacklist have good run in the game number 2 and for me this is where raven showed that he is still the best carry in the SEA. His sniper is really really strong. They destroyed the GS in the game number 2. I like the pick of the Blacklist in the game number 3 even though their mid game is not that good. For me this game was considered as comeback because Sf is so rich in that game, but they able to turn the tide of the game.
Entity VS Gaimin Gladiators +1.5 or Match winner - WIN
Gaimin is so strong, there is no doubt about it. They are playing out of the world. they only proved that they really deserve the number 1 spot in the WEU. They literally beat the entity with 2-0 in their favor.
I'll post again my predictions and analysis for the next DPC matches
