North America - The regular season is over and playoffs well underway, as only 8 teams remain in the inaugural season of TGL 6v6. Will top CEVO-A teams Delectable Meats and Sorry Ass Clan meet up in the finals? Will the somewhat-unknown xensity continue its dominating regular season play of no lost rounds and oust one of the favourites? Can Black Templars and Balloons challenge the big guns? Only time.. and preds.. will tell.

Predictions:
Delectable Meats v Ministry of Pain (All Star Clan)
MP straight up confuses me - their site is way out of date, their forums are dead, and they've had FFs the last couple rounds of CEVO-A, making it impossible for me to judge if they are indeed still kicking. The only thing they DO have going for them is last weeks win over UnkindGaming (a thrashing, I might add). Either way, DM is leaps and bounds ahead of MP, and I don't see this being too much of a struggle.

xensity v Mission Control
Mission Control's ability to not only sneak into the playoffs, but sneak by HeX 4-3 last week is worthy of recognition.. unfortunately, xen's got a lot more going for them. This, sadly, won't even be close.

Sorry Ass Clan v Lossless Gaming
I'm of the same mindframe here as I was with DM - sac is a CEVO-P-to-be team that will show some dominating teamwork and roll right over L7.

Balloons v Black Templars - MOTW
To be fair, both of these teams are unknown quantities to me, yet they're both of equal standings and had an equally impressive 4-1 wins the week before. I recognize a couple of the names on Balloons, which is all I really have to go on - but this one might be close.
