Once the playoff schools are confirmed, we'll check in to see if we need to make any major adjustments.

Sucks because Princeton's schedule is so out of sync with everyone else -_- mid Jan = finals for us.

if we are delaying playoffs until january, would this mean likely 2 CSL seasons per school year? or is that not even confirmed yet?

Hey. My friend wants to know the format for the entire playoffs. Is that decided upon yet? I'm aware that the round of 16 is division 1 seed 1 vs division 3 seed 2 etc. After that though, who plays who?


Not decided on ~

It already is on CSL Forums..


Talking about who plays who in Ro8 - only the Ro16 has been decided.

So hypothetically speaking, can Clazz and I participate in the hypothetical individual CSL (the one where you need 4 wins in CSL+ regular season) if we both win in our match against Binghampton?

Hypothetical Individual CSL, I assume this is the birdie message of 4 individual wins? Looks like I'm going to have to try to get that this week.

Note: Binghamton has no P in it. I'm tired of seeing the mistake in the posts.
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

how is that fucked up? Arizona beat Rice. it's all about who wins vs who, set wins are pretty meaningless.

What if there are 3 teams tied, and they beat each other in a circular fashion? Division 3-way finals?

Only in that case set wins is considered. Otherwise just a head-to-head comparison.
Study the rules guys.

are you for reals?

this is pretty dumb. in a real sport, just because you lose to a team doesnt make that team better than you.

if rice has a better record, albeit losing to arizona, it shows theyre a better team and therefore should go to playoffs. not because of some fluke win arizona pulled.

this system is actually pretty standard in round robin (something that xeris fully knew when he wrote up playoff rules, and also something that dennis himself told me last night after discussing it with the rice team).

the only way for rice to advance would have been to collude with UTexas, making it so that UT threw the match into a 3 way tie in the division. that screams illegal, unsportsmanlike play that we don't endorse, so while we apologize that playoff rules weren't publicized visibly enough, your argument is moot. rice losing to asu means asu advances - which is the standard system of round robin.

It's not quite set wins, but rather "points", which is effectively set differential in games won. From the post in the CSL forums:

Scenario B: Team A, B, and C are both 3-3 during the season (3 way tie for 2nd).
- In this case we will look at points (I.E, 3-0 win = 3 points, 3-1 win = 2 points, 3-2 win = 1 point, loss = 0 points).
- The team with the most points will take the tiebreak
