Meanwhile, Wayne beaten them both, and got "rewarded" with a match against Serral which was a close one, and then play against Harstem who has perfomed at high level so far. And now Wayne could be eliminated if he got cheese by a Protoss or Terran in the last round. I can imagine there is no seeding in between rounds. When you are in the "2-0" tier, you play against another "2-0" player, no other rules apply. | ||

Yeah that is the problem. There is no clear seeding or if there is one, ESL is not comunicating how it works. Wayne and MaxPax realy got the short end of the stick here, they had 10x harder pathes than many players that are allready in the playoffs | ||

But as for some of the other players, going into holidays the day of the qualifiers is a downright bad look (and sending only one player instead of doing their most to put on the numbers) | ||

While it's not a slam dunk, Astrea could have gotten way worse than Trigger. DnS could have a chance to semi-finals if playing THE perfect game. | ||
