NOTES/UPDATES: Update video: ua-cam.com/video/GMlPJ62kFKQ/v-deo.html TLDR: with Falcons' coach not able to attend the major, I am now leaning toward predicting Chiefs in their place. In regards to Phase 3, the official rules say " SELECT THE WINNER FOR EACH MATCH OF THE FINALS PHASE", so that tells us what the format for Phase 3 predictions will be, but it's still not 100% clear how many points each correct prediction will be worth. I imagine they will just be 1 each so you would have to get every prediction correct to get the highest reward tier. The Battle Pass reward is for Year 9 Season 4 which is next season.
You're right! The two brothers from falcons (Guardz and dovahkin) are twin brothers. I saw them multiple times in saudi LANs, and i'm yet to learn how to tell which is which XD.
I was going to do my own predictions then I remembered how well you done for Manchester so I decided to wait for this so thanks for being quick at making this video
It seems I ended up with Upper being G2 and FearX, and lower being CAG and Black Dragons. Though I have literally no idea who some of these teams even are as I admittedly don't pay a ton of attention to the "minor" regions.
@@highgroundatz I mean, like I said. I have genuinely no idea what will happen in regards to some of these teams lol. Your assessment is almost certainly better than mine.
I went with G2 and FearX in Upper and went with BD and CL4L in the Lower bracket. I think FearX has the potential to pull something directly out their a**
Been watching u quite a lot gotta say I love ur content and also love u for being open to opinions I would rather have Chiefs over Falcon, as a OCE watcher, Chiefs have been amazing, they're a very playbook siege team but most importantly they are really consistent and composed, they are unlikely to throw rounds and much more likely to take advantage of any momentum (Went against a powered up Bliss with the OCE Beaulo pick that is Tuhan and still won), as for Falcons, they'll just be the same as Geekay last major, MENA has little scrim times and overall rely on imports, I doubt Robby can carry them against Chiefs but ofc any upset is possible. and CL4L... I mean I'd be so happy for them if they make it out of Stage 1, but not only they lack major international experience; but they are also lacking a core member of the team that being Tristan, and from what I heard he was a core part of the morale of the team, everyone had such level of trust that made CL4L work, and without him they could be heavily haltered. But other than that great predictions! G2 could be cagged tho, knowing G2 they might just throw it just like last major. Also Ooziie for CL4L is just a rumor, he's not going, otherwise he would've been inactive on twitch trying to scrim, I could be wrong but I don't really see him practicing either.
Packer did announce that Oozie will be playing with CL4L at the major. I may be underestimating Chiefs, but having not watched the minor regions much, I have to take a few guesses. Something makes me think Falcons will be better than Geekay was at the last few events, but maybe that's still not enough to stack up against other regions.
I heard the Falcons coach won't be able to attend the event. I'm already considering changing my predictions, but if the same happens to any of their players I'll have to. That really doesn't have anything to do with CAG, but if I start changing predictions MAYBE I'll reconsider CAG.
They seem like a reasonable team with a lot of potential, even if I'm not super familiar with them. They're definitely the team I feel the least good about excluding from my predictions to advance from Phase 1.
the only part that I disagree with is the chiefs falcons match, just because, as you mentioned, falcons don't have the experience playing in best of 3 matches.
@@highgroundatz It's entirely possible that Falcons pull through, but I just don't think it'd happen. Especially if Chiefs take the first map, I think they can take the momentum and really run with it, like they did in the OCE final.
so what do we choose among these clowns? These?: Teams qualified in the Upper Bracket: Chiefs Esports Club, G2 Esports Teams qualified in the Lower Bracket: CL4L, BNK FearX
Hiii HighGround! I've been watching your R6 content on my other account, and it’s really solid! I think with some improved thumbnails, you could attract a lot more viewers. I’d love to help out as your thumbnail editor, I can offer you a low rate since your channel’s still growing. Let me know if you’d be interested, and we can make your content stand out even more!

I still have no idea why they even have teams in the drop downs that aren't even in the phase, glad you're here to make it easy every time though
A truly puzzling phenomenon
You're right! The two brothers from falcons (Guardz and dovahkin) are twin brothers.
I saw them multiple times in saudi LANs, and i'm yet to learn how to tell which is which XD.
At least they have very different names and they're not like Rock and Block or something.
I was going to do my own predictions then I remembered how well you done for Manchester so I decided to wait for this so thanks for being quick at making this video
My predictions were passable
been waiting for this video! can’t wait for the major
Predictions have me nervous, but I'm excited too
I did
Upper bracket: G2 & Chiefs
Lower: Falcons & BD
Reasonable picks. I will be doubly disappointed if CL4L go out sad
Huge underestimated on cag and fearx, fearx with nova feats the shield meta so well and cag are more strong enough as a team
I mostly based my predictions for them on their abysmal past performances, but maybe they'll break the trend this time!
Damn that battle pass is gonna be so hard to get
I made them give away too many last time, they are near bankruptcy.
@@highgroundatzthey knew they didn’t have the high ground against your predictions
Man you are such a legend, please keep us updated :)
I'll do my best
thanks mate i got 6 points in day 1 bcs of you im waiting for part 2
Soonish
It seems I ended up with Upper being G2 and FearX, and lower being CAG and Black Dragons. Though I have literally no idea who some of these teams even are as I admittedly don't pay a ton of attention to the "minor" regions.
Maybe I'm underrating FearX or CAG, but they need to prove to me that they are worth betting on before I feel comfortable doing so.
@@highgroundatz I mean, like I said. I have genuinely no idea what will happen in regards to some of these teams lol. Your assessment is almost certainly better than mine.
last time ur predictions won me the BP.. im following u this time also for the predictions.
Fingers crossed, but it's a much higher threshold for the battle pass this time.
I went with G2 and FearX in Upper and went with BD and CL4L in the Lower bracket. I think FearX has the potential to pull something directly out their a**
Phase 1 isn't looking as scary for FearX and CAG as last major, so maybe now's the time for them to go big
I have the same as yours except the Falcons vs Chiefs match is flipped.
And then you have CL4L beating Falcons?
@@highgroundatz yup
Wait Oozie is playing in the major??? I can’t bet against my sweet prince
Luckily you don't have to. Just cope
Been watching u quite a lot gotta say I love ur content and also love u for being open to opinions
I would rather have Chiefs over Falcon, as a OCE watcher, Chiefs have been amazing, they're a very playbook siege team but most importantly they are really consistent and composed, they are unlikely to throw rounds and much more likely to take advantage of any momentum (Went against a powered up Bliss with the OCE Beaulo pick that is Tuhan and still won), as for Falcons, they'll just be the same as Geekay last major, MENA has little scrim times and overall rely on imports, I doubt Robby can carry them against Chiefs but ofc any upset is possible.
and CL4L... I mean I'd be so happy for them if they make it out of Stage 1, but not only they lack major international experience; but they are also lacking a core member of the team that being Tristan, and from what I heard he was a core part of the morale of the team, everyone had such level of trust that made CL4L work, and without him they could be heavily haltered.
But other than that great predictions! G2 could be cagged tho, knowing G2 they might just throw it just like last major.

@@highgroundatz Packer just mentioned today? That's so awesome yeah
Yeah earlier today
I think virtus and bd are gonna suprise all of us
They are two of the teams with the lowest expectations from the big regions, so it's very possible
I chose upper bracket G2 fearx
And lower bracket cl4l falcons
I think upsets with happen
Almost certainly they will
This channel got me the pass last time i got faith he will do so again
We shall see
I've seen some people putting CAG in the lower bracket your thoughts? I'm a little torn between cag and falcons for lower bracket
I heard the Falcons coach won't be able to attend the event. I'm already considering changing my predictions, but if the same happens to any of their players I'll have to. That really doesn't have anything to do with CAG, but if I start changing predictions MAYBE I'll reconsider CAG.
Bro your my goat you got me 3/4 thats good as
Could have been better, could have been a lot worse
Putting my faith on you man. Get us home!
I feel like I gambled a bit here, hopefully it pays off
what do you think about chiefs?
They seem like a reasonable team with a lot of potential, even if I'm not super familiar with them. They're definitely the team I feel the least good about excluding from my predictions to advance from Phase 1.
Do you guys think CL4L is a cope pick?
Yeah man! Especially with a sub. I think G2 will get Cagged before qualifying in the lower bracket
I didnt realise they did the predictions again thanks for reminding
No prob
@@highgroundatz bruh just did my own predictions came back and saw u have just BD and falcons switched from mine and thats why im subscribed
following ur preds!
A few gambles in there for sure, but honestly I don't think there's any way to predict Phase 1 without some guesses.
how abt playoffs? are u planning to make a vid abt it as well?
Yeah, after we see what happens in Phase 1. Or do you mean top 8?
Guide us to victory !
Phase 1 has me cowering
are you doing a watch party when major comes around high ground?
I haven't made a plan, but I'm hoping to watch party at least a bit.
If win battle pass can I use it on next seasons one or does it just give this seasons
It's for next season, Year 9 Season 4
Cag will Cag، I have a feeling that they will do to G2 what Fearx did to them in the last major.
Surely not...
When is the video for the playoffs coming out?
I guess after Phase 1 is done
I expect the battle pass! hehe
Looking quite dubious
When phase 2 predictions
Soon tm
On which app do you vote
Click on the first link in the description
balance your audio dude
can't hear a single thing you're saying from the lofi music
Maybe the music is a bit loud at points, but you can definitely hear my voice clearly over it
@@highgroundatz :|
Don't worry there isn't even music on the update video!
the only part that I disagree with is the chiefs falcons match, just because, as you mentioned, falcons don't have the experience playing in best of 3 matches.
But what if they have sauce?
@@highgroundatz It's entirely possible that Falcons pull through, but I just don't think it'd happen. Especially if Chiefs take the first map, I think they can take the momentum and really run with it, like they did in the OCE final.
I hate being a G2 fan. I'm waiting for another lower bracket run
Wdym run? Lose 1 match then win 2 to make Phase 2?
You're not alone bro
@@highgroundatz Yeah basically. I'm expecting them to be on the edge of continuing throughout this event
LETS GOO
But who do you think will go to Phase 2?
so what do we choose among these clowns? These?:
Teams qualified in the Upper Bracket:
Chiefs Esports Club, G2 Esports
Teams qualified in the Lower Bracket:
CL4L, BNK FearX

No thanks, I think I'm good for now
If you dont vote for CL4L dont even bother voting.
and why is that? CL4L might use their coach instead of a proper player :D
They got Oozie
@@jarskii4786 they are a T2 team playing against some heavy hitting T1 teams. Why would you not cheer for these guys?
@@highgroundatz I dont care too much about streamers but from what I've seen Oozie is fine, doesnt seem like a toxic guy or anything.
@@Kaleb._you think CL4L is gonna win the whole thing??
Chiefs will make it 2-0
Could be
