Easykiller vs. Speedo


Easykiller are definitely the big favorites coming into this match and Speedo will most likely have a tough time giving much resistance.
Prediction: 2-0 to Easykiller.

Fanatics! vs. eSuba




Based on that, Fanatics! might have a slim chance if they prepare well, but I'm still gonna give eSuba the upper-hand.
Prediction: 2-1 to eSuba.

Team Acer vs. noop


But despite that, Team Acer needs to be looked upon as most likely winning this match. Although don't be surprised if noop wins a couple of rounds against them as well.
Prediction: 2-0 to Team Acer.

Druidz vs. QuiD

For
QuiD, their group-experience was much different. They were placed in Group 8 (same group as Team Acer) and they could only secure their playoffs-spot in the very last round when they won against Ravage 3-0. This meant they got 3rd in the group and were one of the eight best to get a spot in the playoffs.

Druidz are big favourites for this match and will probably win it rather easily, seeing as they have many players already in the top dedi-records.
Prediction: 2-0 to Druidz.

Fureur vs. Core | iGn


As for
Core | iGn they managed to qualify as 3rd place in group 1, where they lost against both Easykillers and eSuba. They certainly have good players in their team such as
Klaas or old-school player
SiS who returns for TmT, but it's going to be a uphill battle vs Fureur, and while they might win some rounds, they're probably not going to win any maps.



Prediction: 2-0 to Fureur.

enthuse vs. insects fun squad


Prediction: 2-0 to enthuse.

BX3 vs. impact
In my opinion, this is the best looking match on paper for the first playoffs round.
BX3 obviously has been showing lately that they are to be considered top 3 in the world with placing 2nd in the previous major team tournament ESL Competition Premiership. Granted they did not have a smooth group-stage in this tournament, but despite losing 33 rounds in total they still went undefeated, and are likely more motivated now that the playoffs are going to start.

For
Impact (whose line-up consists of players from many other French teams), they had a hard way to the playoffs as they were placed in the same group as Druidz, Natur Viecher and minipeace who all gave a good performance. But they still managed to sneak in to the playoffs as 3rd place, and if you look at their line-up they have many good players who if they trained enough could give BX3 a run for its money, atleast for 1 map.

Prediction: 2-1 to BX3.

Dignitas vs. TRTeam

However
TRTeam shouldn't be much trouble to defeat. They also finished 2nd in their group (Group 6) behind Rule them All which they even won 1 map against. So they have some skills and could possibly win some rounds against Dignitas if they're lucky. But this is looking to be a piece of cake for the British organization.

Prediction: 2-0 to Dignitas.

HOT vs. Natur Viecher
This is a hard match to call.
HOT won their group with only losing 4 rounds in total, but one could argue that they had a pretty easy group. In comparision to
Natur Viecher (formerly known as @) who finished 2nd in a very hard group consisting of teams like Druidz, Impact and minipeace.


On paper I would say Natur Viecher has the better players overall, but HOT seems to have more motivation and perhaps taking it a bit more "serious" which might help them. And for TmT they also have leant
Flyer from BX3 who is a very good player and should help them out a great deal in this match.

Prediction: 2-1 to HOT.

Trackmania Heroes Europe vs. Cream | iGn


Prediction: 2-0 to THE.

Sex Alcohol & Weed vs. THC
The battle of the drug-teams.
Sex Alcohol & Weed (SAW) qualified as 2nd place in group 10, only behind Vination which was their only loss, and they didn't have much trouble qualifying for the playoffs.


So THC has a lot of experience that could possible give them the victory in this match. But I have strange feeling SAW won't be an easy task.
Prediction: 2-1 to THC.

Rule them All vs. iDream

Their opponents
iDream finished 3rd in Group 12 where they got defeated by both Iconic and VSP, so even if Rule them All might not be in form, this should still be an easy match to win.

Prediction: 2-0 to Rule them All.

Very Short Players vs. Team United


I will give VSP the advantage in this match, although admittedly I don't know much about either teams.
Prediction: 2-0 to VSP.

Vination eSports vs. eSports-Turkiye




Prediction: 2-0 to Vination.

Team Iconic vs. Dac-SP & Artex


Prediction: 2-0 to Iconic.

Tera vs. Team Happy



Prediction: 2-0 to Tera.
