That also effects whether http://dreamhack.binarybeast.com/xSC21210265 or http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2012_DreamHack_Open/Winter is right about TLO's position. | ||

Hence if Ret beats NightEnD, be it 2-1 or 2-0, then he will advance, as he will have won more maps (6) than NaNiwa, ForGG, or NightEnD. If NightEnD wins 2-1, then it goes to the head-to-head tiebreaker between NaNiwa and ForGG, and NaNiwa advances. If NightEnD wins 2-0, then he, NaNiwa, and ForGG all have the same maps won and map difference, and there's a three-way head-to-head tie, so NaNiwa advances based on map score among himself, ForGG, and NightEnD. TLDR: If Ret wins, he advances. If NightEnD wins, then NaNiwa advances. (Either way, everyone bitches about the tiebreaker procedures.) They don't seem to have a 2012 rulebook for SC2. They do have one for CS:GO, which appears to use the same tiebreakers. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, it seems reasonable to presume that the tiebreakers haven't changed since last year. From the casters, which they said the info comes from an admin, a 6-8 map score is the same as a 5-7 | ||

It's Match +/-, Game +/- then head to head. If there's a 3 way tie after game +/-, internal maps are used to break the tie. This was confirmed on stream. | ||

Whether this is on the casters or on the tournament I don't know. I hope the DH/ESL/MLG partnership will take a look at tiebreaker rules and unify them and release them publicly. BTW Congrats on having 3/4ths of your players through already! | ||

Actually according to this rulebook maps won doesnt matter, matches won, map difference then match between tied players as it always was at DH. Nothing has changed for a long time. + Show Spoiler + Tiebreakers ● The groups are decided in the following order: points, maps +/-, internal match. In case of a three-way-tie of the previous criteria internal maps +/- will decide. ● Would this not separate the players and determine the group. The players will play a tie-breaker of BO1 against each other. The first match-up will be randomly drawn and tie-breakers will continue until the group is decided. | ||

Nerchio should be ahead of TLO, the dreamhack bracket is wrong. | ||
