Why would they even do something like that Wait, you only JUST figured that out?
Valve want the ultimate tournament, and the ultimate tournament involves everybody playing everybody to ensure the fairest possible ranking. Although I will say that in the case of this enormous round robin you could probably justify a single-elim bracket coming out of it

I mean every team plays 15 matches (plus potential tiebreaks) which is rather a lot but it's spread over 4 days with max 5 games per day so its like 1 Bo5 series per day which isn't wildly unreasonable.

I was officially let go today, God was merciful to let me watch The International 4 uninterrupted!
edit: Contract legally ends August 15th, so I'm eligible for German unemployment for a year (+ I have a year's savings) and I can use the office to watch Dota 2 on the big screen!
A silver lining is all this, hurrah
