Raphael is the clear favorite, and H2O is the clear second (although Garja is the runner-up favorite, interestingly enough) Aizamk and Mitoe are too bad in tournaments to win, ranking with Samwise12 whom I reckon is too rusty. I can't even pick whom I want to win! I like all of these players...

In a tournament setting , ppl dont think aiz will try fancy stuff , + there are 14 civs and he has fancy builds for each + u have to prepare a lot against his fancy builds to predict what he ll do and then execute your counter. NOT EASY , especially in a tournament setting
Advanced Wonders in a tournament finals will be glorious, wait and see. It's up there with Fencing School in the list of must-have cards to win tournaments with.
I am actually looking forward to a really dominating performance from the mankle @H2O_ . Considering the ESOC tourneys its due. Its time to show why he is regarded as the BEST the game has ever seen. #MankleFan .. Also, the stage is set , there are a lot of previous ESOC champions this time.
Underdogs that might win: Prince, Snowww, Aizamk. Mitoe would choke in a finals.
mitoe scary no underestimate plz
For individuals, yes, but I'm sure he will at some point not be in the right mindset and lose because of that. It's inevitable in such a long tournament.
Gotta feel bad for @_H2O who I imagine woke up all excited about that cash and glory on offer ...
Probably sends a message on discord to his sole practice partner @Mitoe :
"oh boi mike I'm super duper pumped to crush some noobs, when can you play buddy? we have the best of practice games and no one else will play with me, super sadface, can't wait to play xxoxxo yours truly mr mankle"

Checks the bracket ...
Indeed, H20 anticipating to get tower rushed to death by opti once again.
