NA and EU Spring Playoffs Quarterfinals: Day 2

Today is our second day of quarterfinal matches for both the NA and EU LCS.  Like yesterday, the tournament style is best of 5, so we can be sure to see a wide variety of picks.

Sunday, April 5th Best of 5 Schedule:

8:00 AM PST - Gambit vs Unicorns of Love
Regular Season: 1 - 1 (Gambit won last)
Prediction: Unicorns of Love 3 - 2.  Like the regular season, this matchup should prove to produce some interesting combinations and out-of-the-box strategies.  Although Gambit is favored for the match up, in a best of 5 series Unicorns of Love has the advantage--but it will be close.  If it doesn't go 3 - 2, the stats will be fairly close.

12:00 PM PST - Team Impulse vs Gravity
Regular Season 2 - 0 (Team Impulse)
Prediction: Gravity 3 - 1.  Team Impulse has been an absolutely fantastic team over the last few weeks, but Gravity has taken some key wins over teams with better records while Team Impulse has lost some key games to teams with worse records.  Team Impulse will put up a good fight, but expect to see Keane have a great showing against XiaoWeiXiao.
