If the trends continue - is there going to be a Pick Em winner?

Surre - a lot of people might have predicted one or two of the upsets, but if trends continue - would there be a winner?

I mean - is there honestly someone who have predicted all of the following (I know nothing is set in stone yet, but still): Group A - CLG, Yoe Group B - FNC, C9 Group D - OG, KT?

I've just calculated and the possible outcomes of the groups are ~330 000. The total amount of players taking part in the competition are 2,247,137, so there is ~ 1 in 7 chance one of them to guess all of them, IF they were picked at random.

*btw - all the variants from groups to finals are 42 467 328 - that's 3 times more unlikely than winning a 6/49 lotto. Who would've guessed :D

There was no doubt someone who just like randomly slid them around for the icon.

My buddy put everything at random so maybe him:?

Wow, chill.

OG and C9 won one game so far. They are very far from actually getting out. KOO, luckily for us, went sloppy on FW, but i would not count them out just yet.

That said, if OG actually get out of the group phase it would break many predictions. Hell, even C9 in third was hard to believe before.

It is still to early to tell. The biggest surprise was OG beating LDG, LDG was favored to win the whole thing. Don`t worry CLG can still get last in the group.
