Pretty stupid that TY is first place with 8-4 vs the 9-2 from Showtime.


Ty beat showtime so its completely fair.

I know that, but still don't think it's fair, since Showtime performed better overall and this format should show who does the best vs all the opponents in the group first, instead of how 2 players did vs each other. Head to head should only come into play when two players haver the same map score imo.

But this opinion is obviously subjective, so I can see your point of view.


Well overall they both went 4-1 in series. I think this kind of tie should be a tie broken by head to head first, then map score if necessary (in this format its not).

Plus both ty and showtime knew they had 1st/2nd in their groups. I doubt there performances on the last series will be amazing (normally players just troll or have fun when the score cant effect their place haha).

So if TY had gone 2-1 in all his wins and had a 8-6 map score vs the 9-2 from Showtime, you still think that TY deserves first?

Every map should count imo, 4-1 in matches is not equal 4-1 in matches, 2-0 is worth more than 2-1 and this also makes sure that every player gives his best even in the last series.

Head to head should come after map score, it's standard and worked this way in other round robin tournaments like DH Winter etc. too.


what if it was bo9 and TY 5-0ed showtime, would he still not deserve 1st place because of map total even though he clearly owns the other? Doesn't make sense...

Makes sense to me if TY performed that much worse vs the other players in the group. This is round robin and not Showtime vs TY (which it should only come down to at the same map score and if Showtime managed to get a better map score despite going 0-5 he deserves first).


why didn't you stop at "let's agree to disagree" now you're triggering me

I swear these discussions on format are always epic...

No, it doesn't make more or less sense which one they chose, both formats have their merit. As it happens, they chose this one. Deal with it.

You can deal with it and still say what you think could be better and hope for improvement in the future.

Scarlett > Major > Elazer > Scarlett

Scarlett has best map score so out in second

Major same map score as Elazer but Major won their match so Major 3rd, Elazer 4th makes the most sense to me

According tp LP the Tie Breaker is as follow:
1. H2H
2. Map Score
3. Head to head results against other players in the group.

And if you take this order, Elazer was better than Major. In the Three-way H2H, Scarlett has the best Mapscore, followed by Elazer and Major.
