The upsets actually evened out the bracket alot. If things went as expected, the top half of the losers bracket would have also been way easier - but Elazer/herO/DRG put themselves there which means the lower bracket is pretty balanced overall. | ||

Well the first round loser matches were DRG - Creator and Elazer - herO on the one side and Percival - Probe and Has - Kelazhur on the other side. Wouldn t say that is balanced. The later 4 are arguably the 4 worst players of the tournament (maybe 4 out of the worst 6 together with Cyan and Ryung), while the other 2 matches could as well be played in the qualifying match | ||

EDIT: I forgot that squad mode exists, but I'd rather something that gave all the streams the same size. | ||

Not quite, the first round of LB was pretty stacked one side as well, because they belong to the same side in the bracket. Only 2nd round and onward are more balance. | ||

But re: the other poster now actually I'm not sure that's more balanced because it's only balanced because two top players got eliminated first round haha. | ||
