somehow, i dont think STX is actually aiming for number 2. no Kal? the only regular members are calm, and to some extent, modesty.

It would appear this way! I didn't think to look at lineups when I wrote this, I've been too baffled for the past 2 weeks about KHAN's absurd lineups in the past few weeks. I get the feeling that at the end of the season teams care more about giving smaller names their shot rather than really trying to grab the #2 spot, or in KHAN's case any spot at all. Dunno if its because they care less about PL or don't think the advantage of auto-seeding is big or think they have an advantage anyway (STX might fall into that category, their team transitions fine into a bo7).

It looks like I have an error in the expected table, I think I'm not crediting SKT for a win. Some of the other numbers are going to be slightly off because it doesn't account for the matches played in week 6 - it is also possible that I missed something in translation because the table was originally done for a while ago but I've been updating it as I get too lazy to finish writing/posting.

I also take responsibility for some of the numbers being slightly off, Riptide asked me about it twice and I never looked into it seriously. I was too dumb to remember that WL had playoffs that are not officially counted in standings.

It might also be a chance to give some of the people they're going to need in a bo7 a little more experience and practice to get them into shape. Of course, this is all speculation, but it seems reasonable to me. + Show Spoiler [stx vs kt results] +
And hey, Kal still showed up in the ace match!

man seeding places 1 and 2 is so lame. they won 3 more match than STX and now they are SEEDED into a final? maybe seeded into round 2 of a Ro8 style-tournament would be far more fair (IE 3rd vs 6th plays 2nd spot, 4 vs 5 plays 1st, winners play each other in final). It's a fucking gauntlet to run for 6th-3rd place. I hope next proleague they dont give 1st and 2nd place some great seeds :\

It's really no different than it was before though. Except that it used to be with 4 teams.

1st playoff match: #4 vs #3
2nd playoff match: #2 vs winner of 1st playoff match

final: #1 vs winner of 2nd playoff match
