An interesting variable is if high point scorers end up winning a qualifier further down the line, making way for someone with less points to qualify. My best estimate is that the low end for qualifying will be 250 and the high end will be 350. The last couple qualifiers should be really exciting as there'll be some crazy interactions if the scores are close. 200 points will be more than enough | ||

Last TSL was around 100+ http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2011_Pokerstrategy_TSL/Rankings Funny because the high points guys can end up winning so they get the score zeroed :D | ||

Yeah I'm guessing that around 182 (which Lalush already has) will be around the cut off to lock up a bid. | ||

Last year one of Streloc's teammates qualified in first place of the last qualifier, creating a tie for 9th place between Streloc and I believe Nightend for the last spot in the tournament. Nightend won it but it was cool that there was a bit of extra motivation to get first place. Both of those names could be totally off however. Anyway I expect it'll be a bit lower this time, somewhere around 90 points due to less points awarded for 2nd place (which is better because 2nd place almost guaranteed a spot last time.) Edit: Didn't know some of the other facts mentioned. I'd estimate 150 points to qualify in that case. | ||
