Have you guys considered having seedings for the coming qualifiers based on performance in previous IPLs and qualifiers? I mean some of the bracket sections were so stacked with pros while others were completely empty. Probably a good idea to spread them out atleast a little bit for the coming qualifiers.

Here are the people currently fighting for the 8 slots

1: vpdaedalus/theory vs mouzmana/ryze

2: SLoG/ParanOid/mym.cloud vs liquidret1/nerchio

3: rootcatz/iefnaij vs fnaticfenix/gensulitor

4: tt1/FXOmOoNan vs MillDieStar/fkcxions

5: vibe/elfi vs NrGdde/mouzhasu

6: Tarson/serp vs eglzgamer/kokodasi

7: ROOTDestiny/sterling vs edge/znow

8: clairvoyance/NightEnD vs stalife/revshadow

One of the players inadvertently posted RO32 results to z33k, so disregarding that in case it gets fixed to avoid spoilers

Poor ranged. Had to defeat Agh, then Tyler, then Fenix(who had to beat Drewbie). That was one stacked bracket section.

My picks for top 8:
Mana
Nerchio
Fenix
tt1
dde
Tarson
Destiny
NightEnD

Thank you everyone for participating in our first qualifier! I know we had a rocky start yesterday but thanks to your feedback and patience, we resolved those issues today and were able to move on. We do have our 8 qualifiers and I think everyone will be very pleased with who they are. We will be casting games on Thursday and Friday and then will reveal the full qualifiers and seeding after the broadcast on Friday. We will have links up to register for the next event tomorrow, so stay tuned!

Sweet that we can D/L the replays from the bracket. Some heavy-hitter match-ups are already posted for the rounds leading up to the Ro32. So many "pros" got knocked out in R1 or R2. Thx for making these replays accessible! It would be cool if someone would make a replaypack.

Gonna watch Tyler vs. lgranged now!

Hey everyone, since we're only casting two days this week (Thursday and Friday) instead of our normal four days starting next week, we've decided to go ahead and release the information on who made it through round of 32 to the round of 16. As you all know, the round of 16 is incredibly important because the winner of that round is qualified for IPL Season Two! All further games past the round of 16 is simply for seeding spots.

Round of 32

VPDaedalus vs Theory
MouzMana vs coLRyze
Paranoid vs MYMCloud
LiquidRet vs Nerchio
ROOTCatZ vs Iefnaij
FnaticFenix > Gensulitor
FnaticMSITTI > FXOmOoNaN
MillDieStar > fkcXions
SixjaxViBE > Virus
NrGdde < MouzHasuObs
MillTarson > Serp
EGLzGaMeR > ROOTDdoro
ROOTDestiny > Sterling
Edge < Holder
XxElitexX < FnaticNightend
coLstalife > RevShadow

This of course leaves for the Round of 16 the following matches...

VPDaedalus vs MouzMana
MYMCloud vs LiquidRet
Iefnaij vs FnaticFenix
FnaticMSITTOne vs MillDieStar
SixjaxViBE vs MouzHasuobs
MillTarson vs EGLzGaMeR
ROOTDestiny vs Holder
FnaticNightend vs coLstalife

Our broadcast schedule for this week will be broadcasting the following games (all of which are Best of 5):

IPL Qualifier Thursday with AskJoshy, starting at 3 PM PDT

FnaticMSITTOne vs

MillDieStar

MillTarson vs

EGLzGaMeR

SixjaxViBE vs

MouzHasuobs

IPL Qualifier Friday with Raelcun, starting at 3 PM PDT

Iefnaij vs

FnaticFenix

MYMCloud vs

LiquidRet

FnaticNightend vs

coLstalife

Depending on the time and interest level, we may broadcast more games, but those are the ones guaranteed for us to show you all. All games will be broadcast on the IPL Justin.TV channel and you can tune in at http://www.ign.com/ipl - hope everyone enjoys seeing who makes it in!

IGN staff decided to be a little bit assholes to Virus aka VirusElfi , because when he asked if he could play zotac finals he was disqualified. Im not exactly sure because he is still shown in the brackets.

I highly doubt he was DQ'ed when he asked if he could play in another tournament... I don't know the situation but the IGN staff are very understanding (from my experience with IPL 1) Perhaps he got DQ'ed when he went on to play the zotac finals :/

I want to see Destiny's mass infestors game casted!
I think you guys should maybe pick out 1 or 2 joke / funny games out of ro32 for each of these qualifiers, should be good fun amongst the more serious games :D

Yeah I meant that as a suggestion for future casts

Also are there any plans for casting the ro8 and beyond in the future ?

It depends on the quality of the games, but since we'll have 4 days, yeah we would like to do that.

yo alex, have you thought about maybe making some kind of seeding for the qualifier? I understand that a "proper" seeding list is too hard to do, but maybe you could just "spread out" all the grandmaster players who sign up?

There were 90 grandmasters players that signed up.

That's not exactly easy to "spread out".
