GosuGamers catched a bunch of profiles from the StarCraft community to make some predictions for the upcoming first round of WGTour Clan League division 1. Below is what they had to say about the matches.



WGTCL div 1, S16 R1 predictions
LighT vs. aFz
ToT
Mondragon
I actually have no clue, since I dont know any of those clans any good. But I remember my game versus aFz)heme and it was cool, AFZ for the win!
aAa
Clawson
LighT has some strong players, I'm sure they're willing to show what they're made of, so LighT will take it. LighT 3-2 aFz.
xLo
G5
LighT vs. aFz 3-2
MYM
The1Crow
Team LighT is next to Media and redCode one of the best teams in the USA. I think they acted absolutly correct when they opened their squad during the last months also for non American players. Rob, Bandit, Deadman and Hap should gurantee an easy win against aFz.
xLo
Freezer
This is a close match that could go either way, as both teams are relatively even. I expect [Light] to have a very tough season and will tip aFz 3:2.
AUS
Bman
I think aFz) and [LighT] will be the most evenly matched teams this round. Alot of games to be 2-1 with aFz) winning 3-2.
NaW
Emerald
LighT 2:3 aFz - Two hungry teams who both advanced from division 2 last season. But aFz will use their deadly Russians and get the top edge in this one.

iG vs. DkH
ToT
Mondragon
I stick to DkH, German Power!
aAa
Clawson
iG vs DkH: Will be very nice match, but I'm gonna be a bitch and root for my old team. Go iG 5-0!
xLo
G5
iG vs. DkH 4-1
MYM
The1Crow
DkH is very strong and high motivated these days. They established to the German showpiece-clan with a perfect mix of German oldschool players like Gentleman, fresh guys like GhosT and international players that come especially from Poland like Dreiven. But even iG has skilled players from Korea and China, I expect a close result.
xLo
Freezer
DkH have recruited well recently and their star players Fosken and Drieven and their strong 2v2 team should get them over the line. 3:2.
AUS
Bman
I predict iG. to bring their new Chinese lineup and they will take this match 4-1 or 3-2.
NaW
Emerald
iG. 1:4 DkH. - iG will use their dedicated koreans while DkH will rely on their roster with German and some Polish players. A strong lineup from DkH should bring home a victory for their team.

MgZ vs. NaW-/Qpad
ToT
Mondragon
Uhm tough shit after MgZ player losses... I go with NaW this time but I would gladly be shown different!
aAa
Clawson
MgZ vs Qpad: I'm not sure of MgZ's lineup at the moment, but if they can bring a solid lineup I'm sure they'll take this home. MgZ 4-1 Qpad.
xLo
G5
MgZ vs. NaW-/Qpad 4-1
MYM
The1Crow
Two of my most favourite teams face each other on playday 1. Since MgZ lost their three keyplayers recently this is of course a heavy psychological setback for them. But they have still many skilled players in their roster and QPad has to fight hard to claim the victory here. But they can do it!
xLo
Freezer
MgZ) may have lost some players, but they will be a force still and should defeat a very much improved NaW team 3:2.
AUS
Bman
NaW-/QpaD will surprise many this season and on the back of players such a Datoby, ZpuX and Mireille will win comfortably 4-1.
NaW
Emerald
MgZ) X:X NaW/Qpad - MgZ) just lost some players, but also recruited some new names. I dont even dare to predict this one, we will see how it goes on Sunday.

fAke vs. LRM
ToT
Mondragon
Easy win for LRM I suppose.
aAa
Clawson
LRM has proved it over and over again, 5-0 for LRM.
xLo
G5
fAke vs. LRM 1-4
MYM
The1Crow
Since MgZ is enfeebled by the considerable loss of Hungtran, Oldy and Iefnaij, it is maybe LRM that has no longer to fear one of its hardest opponents MgZ. They should be highly motivated now and win all 1on1 and 2on2 games against the Russian team.
xLo
Freezer
LRM), the champions, will continue with their great form and slam home a win 4:1.
AUS
Bman
LRM) have strengthened their lineup since last season and i expect them to run away with a 5-0 victory.
NaW
Emerald
fAke 1:4 LRM) - LRM just stated in a interview that they aim for a new WGTCL championship title. And there is no reason not to believe them since they have won the league many times before. And with their new European recruits, LRM will be most deadly. fAke may put up a good fight but i doubt it will be enough.

xLo vs. 3D
ToT
Mondragon
xLo will take it home!
aAa
Clawson
Could be nice match if 3D brings the big guns, although I think many are inactive. Still I have to predict a 4-1 victory for Excello.
xLo
G5
xLo vs. 3D 4-1
MYM
The1Crow
Excello is back on track now, and with their latest additions to their rooster they can win the BWCL, the WGTCL and the QPad League this year. I predict they will win all matches in the WGTCL this season, starting with a quite clear result against 3D.
xLo
Freezer
Excello I think will be too strong for the Russians of 3D. 3:2 or 4:1.
AUS
Bman
All of xLo's lineup will be all old MgZ) players with Fabian being the 4th 1v1 player. I predict a 4-1 victory to xLo.
NaW
Emerald
xLo. 4:1 3D - It's almost like David versus Goliath. xLo is a powerteam filled with well-known players. But team 3D, the newcomers from division 2, has shown that they are a hard nut to crack. I belive in a close fight, but xLo brings home the victory in this one.
