What are people most excited about? For me, it's definitely going to be playing in teams. Here's my predictions for teams:

1) Armada/M2K
2) Plupbox
3) Leffen+Hax
4) Axe + SFAT
5) Shroomed + HMW, Mango + Scar

As for singles.. I am as big a Mango fanboy as anyone, but I think Armada is gonna take this one. Mango's complacency after Evo is pretty obvious, so I don't see him taking down a hungry Armada. I'm no HungryBox fan, but after his amazing play at Evo, it would be hype to see him have another spectacular run. Who knows what will happen between him and Armada this time.

Here is the stream schedule: http://www.umsmash.com/schedule/#streamschedule

And some preview articles:

No PP. And PewPewU canceled so that fucks up my teams prediction and hype. HMW will almost certainly be on the mic so I wouldn't worry about that

Most excited for Armada but that's because on the rare occasions I'm able to play, I play Peach.

Predictions:
  • Armada takes it with only Hbox putting up a fight
  • Mango drops to someone (Hax?) and gets 5th or worse. Sadface.
  • After dominating SoCal for weeks, Lucky gets 13th
  • MacD gets 9th again. Nobody notices.
  • For all this talk of SoCal being the best region in the world, the highest placing Cali rep is Shroomed at 7th
  • Leffen arrives, immediately experiencing cold hands due to unfamiliar climate, drops his controller and has to get a new one, and gets sick. He tweets about it, then gets involved in another Twitter spat with Armada
  • With wobbling banned, Nintendude finishes in 25th, distracted by DoH's maniacal laughter

Have armada/m2k ever lost a tourney in teams...? i haven't seen it if its happened...
I actually wasn't even that excited for teams but after seeing those predictions, we have some super sik team lineups. should be dope.

as for singles, mango is gonna go all falcon and win no doubt. (all that all-star practice)

I'm no hbox fan either, but I got pretty damn hyped as he took out his demon in armada. I'm rooting for him to win this major if mango doesn't. plus plupbox is pretty hype.

S2J has won like 4 tournaments in the last month in SoCal, so I'm not sure you can say Lucky has been dominating it. Also, without S2J and Fly, SoCal isn't looking nearly as strong at big house.

I think the rest of his predictions are gonna be spot on. I wonder if we'll get to see Mango's alts in singles--after what Armada did to his Fox, I think we might finally see a game out of his Falcon.

I meant doing really well (compared to his average) for a long while lately, especially Lucky vs. Westballz.

Anyway, it begins, earlier than predicted:

I would be eternally happy if Darkrain won the tournament. Realistically though, I'd say he has guaranteed top 16, and a decent chance of making top 8. Projected finish: 8th.

Nintendude had his best performance at a large regional / national at the last Big House (which also had wobbling banned), so don't count him out just yet!

That being said he'll probably end up like 13th or 17th because the competition is so damn strong.

Predictions:
1. Armada
2. Mango
3. Hbox
4. M2K
5. Plup!!, Hax
7. Axe, Leffen
9. Shroomed, Zhu, Lucky, S2J he's not going SCREW IT I pick HugS

He's definitely not guaranteed top 16. Mango, HBox, ColBol, Zhu, KK, Leffen, Hax, SFAT, Axe, Armada, M2K, Shroomed, Plup, Westballz are all heavy favorites over him.

Abate, Nintendude, Cactuar, DarkAtma, HMW, HugS, Bladewise, Darrell, Wizzrobe, and like 10 other players could take him down as well. I will make it my goal to play Darkrain this tournament. I wet myself watching that Falcon for years gawddamn

I hope we get a lot of matches of Darrell on stream. he has the most entertaining samus by far.

Also, after Leffen's twitter rant yesterday i'm hoping he shows up big just to silence all of the people doubting him. it'd be pretty hilarious if he won.

yeah zhu's falco. oh my. :3

Double post here, but I think it's important enough to warrant its own post.

Can anyone figure out how we can get this tournament on the sidebar on TL? I ask this instead of submitting the event because there are multiple streams over 2 days. If we could get all of THIS http://www.umsmash.com/schedule/#streamschedule in the sidebar, that would be amazing.

I think you need to submit the event, but you can have multiple streams under the same event.

If you want multiple events, you could submit multiple events.
