Quantic wins, they are too good now  Vile by themselves were able to hold with the Korean teams last TAC, with Naniwa, Sase, Apocalypse and all the rest of the Quantic guys together, they could go very very far in this tournament. | ||

http://challonge.com/tac3 looks like dtg replaced vile? wonder how they seeded the teams too, it wasn't by last season's placings should've set up a bracket between zenex, dtg, esc and atn-type and have those guys play it out | ||

In the point system I devised for determining who got through, each had 9 points for finishing in 2 finals, 1 semifinal and 1 time losing in R1. ZeNEX did not perform as well, neither did ESC. So since they were tied, I looked at other leagues, quality of opponent in our tournaments and their head to head (Head to Head, DtG won 5-4) In the end, I decided DtG was more deserving, though by the slimmest of margins. My decision was approved by the rest of the IPL staff (as well as the seedings for the events). For overall seedings, we determined our previous events, other team events, solo events for team's players & consistency. | ||

EDIT: Also when is this starting? Liquidpedia has it for 5/6 which can't possibly be right EDIT2: Interesting to note, it looks like if both FXO teams lose first round then win their first round in losers there will be FXO vs FXO (still surprised they wouldnt just compete as one gigantic team of death and destruction) | ||

It was based off of TAC 2's results as well as the results of other team leagues and some subjective opinion on relative strengths of teams. Some teams are in the 2nd round because we went from a 16 team to a 24 team bracket. We are actually finalizing plans to make seeding and other information more transparent for future events, both for spectators and for the teams themselves. We hope to announce these plans very soon! | ||

People just take a peek and tune out and check results later. Very unhype and the numbers from last seasons show it. Extorting? These are free up until 480p, and I have no idea why you wouldn't want more games. The numbers from last season were often in 5 figures, especially when fan favorite teams played. But if you don't like this tournament, I guess no one can force you to watch.

MVP is a GSTL title-winning team, despite their frankly terrible performance last TAC, so I guess that could really help. Secondly, can't really underestimate a team that has DRG on their roster. | ||
