So... everybody has to prepare their anuses, but Ehome doubly so?

Well, after yesterday that will stop being true, and we shall see if EG and Secret are really the gods of this group stage.

Aren't the only seeds that matter is top 8 and top 12?
|
Matchups in the playoffs also matter

Well top 12 is very forgiving iirc you can still sometime squeak by 3-12 into tiebreakers for top 12 so hopefully NB can win 2-4 games.

I think 3 wins will probally not be enough

you're 8th you play vs EG, you're 7th you play vs Secret (at least atm) so everything matters.

Bruno is trying to get ideas for his next balance patch :D.

What is Bruno smoking? Na'Vi are clearly in contention for top 8 and he's talking about them hopefully securing top 12. What the fuck?

It feels pretty unlikely that 3 wins is top 12 tbh

They maybe need 1 more win and they still have to play NB, MVP and TF. They are guaranteed.

If they're not mathematically guaranteed, it should be very hard for them not to top 12. They're 4-3, already played against Secret and they still have the "free win" matchups (MVP, NB, TF) waiting for them.

So, conclusion of the day: EG and Secret still unstoppable (CDEC almost did it with Secret, but close is no cigar!), NaVi still now how to win and Newbee still really in the dumps!

3 wins is unlikely but 4 wins is guaranteed? Though I do think 4 will be roughly the cutoff.
I STILL REALLY HATE THAT YOU CAN LOSE YOUR LAST MATCHES TO GET A BETTER SEEDING

Near guaranteed with 4 wins is accurate in Navi's case. It means they probally only need 1 win and they face easy teams.

Thats kinda how the math works out though just like >50% winrate is likely top 8 and <50% winrate is likely not although yes there's a pretty good chance some tiebreakers will be needed around that cutoff.

Watching some games I missed, na'vi won vs CDEC but it wasn't thanks to funnik, he was so bad this game, like it was 4vs5 I haven't seen him alive or doing something in any team fight.
