I still don't understand why there's even a fucking losers bracket in this qualifier to begin with. Might as well have gone all out with a bracket reset if you were gonna go full retard like this. Wait what is the problem with this format? I don't like there being a losers bracket when only first place matters, it's very blatantly unfair in this format. Take Newbee for instance, they're still undefeated, and say they don't drop a single game against CDEC.Y tomorrow. Then come the finals and whoever they go up against manages to beat them. Poof, Newbee is now eliminated while having only been allowed to lose one series as opposed to two series like everyone else. It's stupid and goes entirely against the spirit of fair competition. Seeing as this is just a qualifier too, I don't really see much of a problem with just moving the finals to a separate day for instance if you want to prevent whoever comes from losers bracket from having to play too many games.
It's the age old problem with the dota-style double-elims into single elim grand finals, except the problem is infinitely magnified because second place gets absolutely nothing here. There's no real solution I think, outside of making the whole thing single elimination brackets (and not lining up a potential 11 games for the same team for the final day of course).

I can see why people believed LGD over Newbee as an invite for Manila was such an injustice.

It is going to be a hard road for Ehome to take that one spot.

literally best team in china
i think they were like 45-5 last time i checked without adding the wins this playoffs
if only they were invited so that another team could take the chinese qualifiers

I don't know why none of these teams can win Newbee. All I see from Newbee is the same strategy again and again and even though they play it well, it's though other teams lose their ability to fight and think when they play Newbee.

I remember kpii back in the MVP days when he qualified for weakest carry of TI5. At least he's definitely upgraded to a better player.

the same as how teams from SL and ESL manila couldn't win against VG.R and Wings
especially wings that team was just teamwork and aggression

Teams from those tournaments did win them. Newbee hasn't lost a game. It's not the same.
