No fancy graphics in this thread, because I want this to be as clear as possible. All 7 rounds of the preliminaries have been played and it's now time for tiebreakers!

You can see the final standing in the spoiler here:
+ Show Spoiler +
Final standings:




Important to keep in mind is the tiebreaker rule: Tiebreakers, if necessary, will be determined in the following order: (1) previous head-to-head results, if any, (2) total rounds won, (3) additional games played between involved parties.

So if the two players have the same score, and if they played before already in previous rounds, the one who won before will be given the win (eg. eon vs spx case), or the one who has more round wins (fearthequeen vs lancer case). If they're tied in the round wins and they haven't played against each other before, they will play additional bo3 match to determine who gets a better seed.

In case where there's more than 2 players who are tied, a round-robin set of bo3 matches will be played between involved parties, where the rules of the tiebreakers still apply. So if players A, B and C are tied, and A played against C before in previous rounds and won, he will be given the score he won with (2-0 or 2-1) against the player C, but he will still have to play against player B. Also, after all of the matches have been played in round-robin fashion, points will be calculated for each player by taking their ratio of wins and losses into account. In case there's additional ties, the tiebreaker rule still applies and further matches may be played between the tied players.

All tiebreaker matches are bo3 and map order is same as in preliminaries, ie: Fighting Spirit -> Neo Medusa -> New Heartbreak Ridge

All replays must be saved; report your game by sending me the score + replays in a PM or on skype. You can start playing your matches. Default time to play, as usual, is Saturday 18:00 GMT (+00:00).

Tiebreaker matches:
  • kingfish- 0 - 0 Cryoc (playing additional bo3 match for 3rd place)

  • iFU.spx 0 - W [sc1f]eonzerg (tiebreak rule (1) applies; eon gets 5th place, spx 6th)

  • remag vs NeMu555 vs Naugrim vs noob_saibot vs Castro (playing round-robin for 30th, 31st and 32nd place; two players with the worst score in this round-robin set of matches will not qualify for ro32 and will be eliminated)

Wow, that is more matches then I anticipated. At first I thought most would have already played against each other at some point and the tiebreaker rules would apply. I have misjudged the situation quite badly I suppose.

Good luck to all the players and a big thank you to the organizers and casters!
