H2H7 / The Draft Log

^After all, Heaven's Kitchen was the underdogs last year and look how that turned out.

same was thought of h2h6 flying germans...

I'm going to play a fun game called "let's copy Cocoa" haha. I actually really liked the idea of this so here goes:

R1: Everyone picks Pacificoaster here imo, but I'd say that there are some really strong R1 picks [obviously] so basically any of the R1 picks would work here. I'd go with Pacificoaster though, with Airtime and 5Dave close second.

Kumba

R2: Being picked in R2 kind of means that I'm obliged to keep myself. However, I'd say that Gee is probably the best R2 pick followed closely by nin and Cocoa.

Robbie

R3: Tough choice between Loopy and Maverix here. Depends on if LL will be strong this H2H.

Trav

R4: Coups has shown some real quality, but I'd actually go with wheres_walto here. Close one.

Robbie

R5: Given Six Frags was actually a R3 pick I can't really include him here. It'd be between Bill and ][ntamin for me. Pre-draft would have gone Bill.

Liampie

R6: Don't know enough about Sulakke [despite involvement with Lijiang], and although PizzaWurscht has some incredibly detailed RCT I'm not sure how well that would translate into H2H. Milo seems to be the best pick this round for me.

Roomie

R7: Hmm, Seb or Rene tough choice. I think that Rene is probably just above here, although I think either would make a great pick this round.

Trav

R8: Some good picks available here. gdb, FredD, Sephiroth any of which would make great picks. Would probably go for FredD here though.

Liampie

R9: Like Cocoa, don't know much about the later picks. RWE has shown some decent screens, but I'd go with bigshootergill based on finished work.

Liampie

Final Tally:

Kumba: 1

Trav: 2

Robbie: 2

Roomie: 1

Liampie: 3

inthemanual: 0

Not a bad overall distribution of players here, I think that Liampie got the best of the later picks whilst Robbie had some great early picks. Despite inthemanual not having the best [in my opinion] picks for any of the rounds a lot of them are probably 2nd or 3rd choice for the respective round.

^thats also my impression of itm's choices. often amongst the better ones, just not the best. which is fair, becaues the best ones go earlier in the round so you can't always get the top choice
