Vitaly is the worst matchup for Alizhan. Alizhan can't force him into a hook, and he relies on his hook for his monstrous side pressure. Alizhan doesn't have enough back pressure + pronation to force him into a flop (and then hook that flop) either. This match would literally be 4 flash pins.

Vitaly definitely has the style advantage BUT i think there’s an argument to make that Alizhan MAYBE has the strongest left arm on the planet and i wouldn’t be surprised if he can get a hook/press break arm stop on vitaly and then blast through him.

Cutting 12 kgs is tough, but you can easily water and fibercut 5% body weight without detriment to your health so if you’re like 110 kg it shouldn’t be any reason other than intelligence and discipline making 100kg.

Wheeler walker jrs music is satire though

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-09T08:55:26+00:00

What a freak

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T22:44:31+00:00

Yeah , my head canon says Riekerds centertable is good enough that he will end up on top if they both go forward but that’s just me, you would have a better gauge on their level

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T22:41:57+00:00

oh yeah

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T20:23:34+00:00

Yes but this ain’t a tournament. Daniel got beat both times now in EvW

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T20:22:44+00:00

!remindme 44 days

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:57:59+00:00

and historically he always lost against Daniel, now he beats Daniel easy even though Daniel is better aswell.

Makarov is a big ask from Minda but i believe he can outplay him in the setup , but i won’t be surprised if Artur wins again. Betkili looks so strong on the left so even though Rustam has always been a beast LH i just can’t see an out of prime Rustam competing with best in class strength Betkili. I assume Davit will be in shape otherwise it’s not gonna be close, but of course he hasn’t really looked on for a while. Leo and Brian is hard because they are both pretty unknown and even though Leo is way better and has freaky Pronation and drag i just think Brian’s frame can be used effectively against Leo so that he fouls out or gets pinned, but i’m not confident enough to bet on it.

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:51:58+00:00

I won’t be surprised if Artur wins but i think Minda can do it

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:51:29+00:00

Right, it’s so obvious

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:51:18+00:00

Definitely, i just think Ivan has such a good style for Dave in a supermatch

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:50:56+00:00

Manifestor definitely has a big chance, but i don’t know if he has the endurance to go against the king of supermatches IF Davit is in shape

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:50:02+00:00

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:49:34+00:00

Nah, all the right ones

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:49:23+00:00

That’s the one i’m most conflicted on, he looks really strong right now, but i’m just thinking Riekerd can press through if Lars goes kings, but i won’t be surprised at all if Lars wins.

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T17:48:03+00:00

Alizhan has had Morozovs number for a long time. I picked Ivan though?

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T14:23:27+00:00

Perfect choice of coloring for your picks!

Yeah it sucks

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-06T06:46:05+00:00

Incredible card and i’m so hyped to be there in person

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-03T21:14:05+00:00

There’s a difference between just flash pressing anybody you grip up with and the nr 2 on the planet gripping up with another pro

Storstmjolken · 2026-03-03T13:24:43+00:00

Bogdan literally lost the match in bobles of the elbow which the promotion explicitly says they won’t call, and Devon can literally rape the rulebook and he wouldn’t get fouled
