TL 2-1 BBL
I think BBL can take a map off of Team Liquid and can make them sweat out the win, people underestimate just how good BBL aim is, especially Aslan and QutionerX, If they manage to make a good veto where they go to Icebox(not one of liquid's better maps) I can definetely see them, taking the map, sadly for the turks i think that on most maps(Haven,Ascent,Split in particular) team liquid will dominate since they have more experience and they can run their double Operator setup that has been their trademark.
FNC 2-0 OGLU
Not a great matchup for OGLU since Fnbatic is a team that has shown to be proficient at dealing with setplay heavy teams(which OGLU is) but they also have insane firepower in alfajer + derke, the thing that has been OGLU downfall in most of their losses, unless Boo comes up with really insane strats and a perfect veto, i can't see OGLU outgunning Boasters troops.
FPX 2-1 G2
Very hard game to predict, FPX does feel like the more complete team, with versatile players and super structured play, but G2 fraggers seemed on point last week and when Hoody+Nukkye come alive it's really hard for any team, to deal with them, I still prefer FPX, especially because they are a prep-heavy team and G2 isn't a super deep team and they cant be surprised by new additions like the ones Fnatic had.
GLD 2-0 BIG
Guild was the superior team even last challengers but in the break they seem to have evolved a lot, Koldamenta is implementing a very cool style of calling on Defense, with a lot of gamble stacks adn quick rotations for retakes and guild seems to be perfect for this style, they played some of the best retakes ive seen recently vs M3C and their superstar Leo seems to not be letting his foot of the gas, I odnt think the new look BIG stands many chances
M3C 2-0 NAVI
While M3C seems to be on the downswing, maybe because they still seem to be in a pinch regarding roles and maybe because of outside reasons, this game against Navi, another team that looks to be really struggling both mentally and mechanically is the perfect occasion to gain their confidence back and get a good win.
ACE 2-0 FKS
Acend looked extremely impressive in their first game, especially in the mechanics dfepartment, one of the casters compared them to the 2017 CSGO superteam and I think the comparision is very on point, Acend has a lineup full of players that can pop off hard and sadly for Fokus, I think their reliance on mechanical skill from their star duo of JuGi and Lewis isnt gonna fare wll against Acend's stacked roster
TL 2-0 BBL (TL just destroys Turkey every time)
FNC 2-1 OGLU (Fnatic looked great, but OGLU had decently close maps again Acend and I think they have potential to get even better as weeks go by)
FPX 2-0 G2 (G2 were struggling quite a lot against Fokus even when hoody and nukkye were performing really well)
GLD 2-0 BIG (GLD looked great while BIG really didn't. Even before the games I predicted that Guild would be inconsistent so 2-1 could happen if BIG guys have improved).
M3C 2-0 NAVI (I think M3C woke up after loss to GLD and will win against Navi who seem to struggle a bit due to roster changes or something).
ACE 2-1 FKS (Acend looked great, but I think there's still questions with cNed's performance and if JUGi and Lewis are popping unlike in their games against G2 I could see them taking 1 map from Acend that just added 2 new players)
