Rank has its privileges. I don't quite follow. What's the privilege of meeting a lowly M5 instead of a Sekiwake (WTK) in the penultimate bout (as was my draft)?

In this case, it resulted in the higher-ranked guy getting the easier (by rank) opponent, but really it's about the order of making the torikumi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chartorenji 72 Posted May 17 12. Tamawashi (Going off without anyone saying first, but I think he is up next anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WAKATAKE 2,256 Posted May 17 In my looking around, I have to assume that is not the case. Daieisho has wrestled everyone in the top except for the M3's and M5's down. 12. Daieisho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gurowake 3,098 Posted May 17 I think I know why they did Hoshoryu-Takanosho on Day 11, but I'm not sure how that reasoning applies to the future. I'm really torn between Daieisho and Endo, so I decided to do a full Makuuchi torikumi and found it was much easier to come up with something good if I went with... 12. Endo  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 857 Posted May 17 12 - Daieisho looks good to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oshirokita 134 Posted May 17 Hmm, many good options depending on when they group yusho contenders together and the cascading effects muck up my analysis. I think they may wait one more day before things go higgledy-piggledy. Day 12 - Daieisho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sumo Spiffy 54 Posted May 17 I tried doing a torikumi as well, but I'm not close to an expert and I'm a lot less sure if this is right. But I'm also at: 12. Endo But at this point I'm thinking somebody's gotta fight Terutsuyoshi because of how badly they're all doing, and if that's wrong my whole set of ideas can go in the trash.

Reonito 393 Posted May 17 It would be Daieisho if they stuck with the pattern, but it's day 12 so... 12. Endo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
