Damn, we will have to change our predictions, TY has passport issues. Let's see who will be the replacement. Special would be great, but I don't know if he can come on such short notice .


Do you have any details on what the problem is?

No sorry, don't know more than what is in the tweet.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

His passport is expiring within the next 3 months. Honestly a damned shame because no replacement is gonna make up for this. Not on this short a notice.

Mad respect for Special for joining at such short notice, he's doing it for TY too I guess. He'll have a good time I'm sure.

Yes, Special is in! At least one of the most desires comes, even if it happens at the expense of TY.

Are groups being modified because of that?

Hm seems like he is fine with it after all and is looking forward to destroying MlorD in his group.

Ah yeah, also a good option for sure, would make sense to keep the groups the same apart from switchting out special and TY, since the players already prepared. Special not wanting to play on Thursday is reasonable too.

Hello.

I can confirm the following

Group swap from day 1 and day 2. Both evening groups are swapped:

B (Serral, Special, Showtime, uThermal, PtitDrogo, Kelazhur, Bly, MarinelorD moved to Friday
D (Reynor, INnoVation, Parting, Heromarine, Harstem, MaNa, SortOf, Denver) moved to Thursday

So a 1:1 swap. Thanks!

So Winning once 2-0 and losing all other matches 0-2 is better than going 1-1 every time?
Am I missunderstanding somthing here?

how is going 2-12 more wins than going 7-7?
although i guess in this case, wins and mapdifference are always the same thing

I assumed winning means winning a series, if wins means maps it is fine I gues

yeah if it's meant to be a series win, i agree it's not a good idea in this format, for the reason you gave. statistically speaking, a third of all matches result in a tie (there's 3 possible outcomes: player A wins 2-0, player B wins 2-0, or they go 1-1) and i don't think it's fair to say someone that manages to beat one or two players 2-0 but loses to everyone else is better than someone who can consistently take one map off each opponent.

Just so you guys know, we are still working on tiebreak stuff. Sorry for the confusion, obviously you are smart and we potentially do map difference first, thanks for the input. Sorry a bit stressed here, once we are done we will obviously announce the final decision. Could take a bit since Traidos the big brain isnt here yet.

You guys help us whenever you point out mistakes, so thank you
