This summary will go through day 22 (yesterday’s matches), mostly because I want to do one of these with KI at #1. Heh. That means that this article will cover changes in the last 8 matches, and each team’s outlook as we begin the last 12 matches before finals. Also, because I’m a bit low

Our views are down, so I thought I might as well post something to perhaps generate some discussion here. In the Virtupets Board on Neopets, mythress (host of a popular prediction page) made a prediction board, so I posted my predictions a few minutes ago. I kept them fairly brief, and they’ll probably change a
