I can understand round robin in group stages to advance in the tournament, but for something that's essentially prelims to be this volatile? It's good entertainment value, but for something like staying in code S/making it into code S it shouldn't be like that. I understand how there is some volatility, but it is similar to a normal group stage in that regard. A round robin is a pretty damn good way of pulling the best players out of a group. If there's some awesome theories I didn't consider, let me know. | ||

You hold long enough for 1-2 more sentries (MC had 2 out at that point in the game, if he had done the standard FFE, he would have held), and then your cannons and Voids will do the rest. | ||

He's guaranteed Code S if losira wins against check and Jjakji wins against MC, then they are tied 3:1 and have to play out who is the unlucky guy to drop out of the top two and thus not getting code S. Is it that hard to actually put 1 and 1 together? | ||

If he loses he is out. Jjakji. If he wins he is through. If he loses and Check wins, he is in a three way tie. If he loses and Losira wins he is out. Just to keep this in the chat so you all can see what happens. | ||

Check 3-0 Losira 2-1 JJaki 2-1 MC 1-2 Kyrix Doesn't Matter If Check wins against Losira Check 4-0 Losira 2-2 Jjaki 2-1 MC 1-2 Then if MC beats Jjaki... 3 way tie 2--2 for 2nd. If Jjaki wins... JJaki and Check advances. If Losira wins against Check Losira3-1 Check 3-1 JJaki 2-1 MC 1-2 MC would be eliminated if Losira wins... so he may not try... but JJaki would have to win to force a 3 way tie for 1st with no one guaranteed a spot. IF MC Wins Losira and Check. If Jjaki wins 3 way tie for top 2 spots. | ||
