CAL Week 7, teams take one of the smallest maps of AA, Collapsed Tunnel. Favored and mastered by many, strats need to be solid in order to pull off a victory. Flashes, smokes, and spams, yet again, have a huge affect on the way the match plays out.I was able to get three prediction sets, so I took a backseat this week. We have xtopherus from Conviction, @venger from Fragweiser, and whiz from IceNine.

Fragweiser has started off really well this season so far with a record of 6-0. Rumor has it... Cal client is easy to get around. With neg coming off a huge win vs jCp. How do you beat a team full of (ex)hackers? 14-0 neg	This could be the MOTW in my opinion due to both teams being very good. due to the fact that fragweiser will be missing 2 key starters i see this match alot closer than it could have been. I see fragweiser taking this in a 8-6 match with several 1v1s	Considering neg's recent win against jCp on tunnel wait never mind... Still I don't think that the king of frags has much of a chance at all. New Era wins this one in peerless fashion.

Ess should be the favored in this matchup since mischief.. Is just a team of old school players. That I am guessing just show up and pub it. If Ess puts anytime into practicing they will come out on top. 8-6 ESS	Ess has still yet to show people why they should be in main, and due to this mischief...if they can field 4 guys should win this pretty easily 9-5	In this matchup of the new school versus the old school I honestly have no idea what will happen. But, I will hazard to say that the new kids on the block will win... somehow

Make No Hesitation.. The undefeated team will be more than Ds can handle. 14-0	Deadly shot has yet to also show teams why they deserve to be in main and will loose this one 12-2 if they even show up. Toby will be a beast and drop a 20-2 if they even play this match. <3 Toby	This is pretty straightforward: If Deadly Shot shows up for this match it would be safe to say that Toby could 1v4 them. nH doesn't lose a round.

Both teams have been struggling and have been losing some close matchs. Hard to say who will come out on top. I will flip a coin.. fd wins the flip. 8-6 fd	I see this one as a close match, and if v3 is scrimming hard they should win this one by a close 8-6.	Version 3 seems to be doing well recently and if fd-m is truly worse than fd-i I don't see them winning. v3 takes the win by a close margin.

Lc is a solid up and coming team that is hungry. They seem to be practicing alot and if they have there sutff together. I can see Lc beating the experienced fc. 8-6 Lc	Probably one of the closer matchups and I have played against fc on tunnel. If they are on their game expect a nice solid victory of 9-5	Fightclub has some solid players but after their upset loss last week this could be a close match. Lc squeaks out the win in the dying rounds. Plus I'm not jinxing fc by picking them.

If joe shows up for this match then etu doesnt have a chance. If not... then iN maybe in trouble. 10-4 iN	I have had the liberty of playing both teams and ETU is definately outmatched here. expect inno to come out with a vengence after losing lasts weeks WC match.	With zeratool MIA I think eTu will be able to pull off an upset here. But, with iNNo's recent streak of successful crusades you never know.

Team bigballa has been struggling as of late. There only win has been against a new main team Deadly shot. If the U fields a decent roster and Mr. Craig (aka ex-hacker). I dont see Team bigballa winning this one. 10-4 U	I expect a close match maybe even going into extra rounds as both teams are very good on close quarters. I see U inching out a close victory over knights as they have struggled a lil bit.	UO has been pulling themselves together lately and Knights are just a stepping stone on their path to rejuvenation. UO wins in a close match.
