I love this stuff. This is exactly why I like NASL's format. Its like the final week of the NFL and I sit down with figure out all the possible playoff scenarios. I know there are also a bunch of matches that don't matter of course, but I think the trade off is worth it.

The NASL Tournament format is so bad! There are played so many boring and unimportant games.

Well, matches can always be boring, but if this thread shows u one thing, it is that for qualifying in the finals u need to win at least 7 out of 9 games and even then u may end up in the playoffs.
There are played many games, but almost none of those games is unimportant.

Well, as much as i like the format the fact that someone might advance due to a walkover is a bit saddening. While he probably deserves it anyway it would be nice to see him fight for it.

I was gonna finish this with the next top 20 that go into the qualifying playoffs, but motbob said TL would be posting something of their own.

Good job. Seems we will have most of the koreans going to the finals.

My predictions

A - Moon, Morrow
B - July, Sjow
C - Squirtle, Strelok
D - Select, Ret
E - Boxer, Sen (Hardest one to predict)


edit - zenio gets a w/o so idra is basically out unless sen loses 0-2 and beats boxer 2-0
There is always tomorrow nshs.seal.

Hrm, so there's no cutoffs between making the playoffs and the relegation zone? For some reason I was thinking a couple of players would just remain in the NASL but not make the playoffs.

This number crunching and hypothetical scenarios is more fun than the games xD

How exactly will the final tournament pan out? It is a tournament, isn't it?

Yep, 16 person bracket.

Top 2 of each group qualify

The next 20 ranked players enter a qualifying playoff. There are 5, 4-person brackets in this playoff. The winner of each 4 person bracket qualifies for the tournament.

The winner of the 1024 man open tournament qualifies.

Is this an offline (you know what I mean) tournament, taking place over a few days? With that prize pool, it has to be, doesn't it? Anyone know when it is scheduled to take place?

I've looked for the official rules, cannot seem to find them.

Can someone tell me if the first tie-break is record or points? It seems like it ought to be the record, but haven't seen that listed anywhere.

I hope it's record.

If Sen loses 1-2 and idra wins 2-1, they both will have 8 points, yet idra will be 7-2 and sen will be 6-3.

I am wondering who advances in that as well... it should be the one with the most series wins as opposed to the least game losses.

Didnt strelok already beat haypro? That would mean he advanced.

Almost, bottom 16 players in the league are replaced. They can still try to requalify in one of the two 1024 man tournaments (the one that doesn't give seed into finals).
Bad manners are better than no manners at all.

Poor Boxer, I want him to advance but I don't think he can make it against idra he should let MMA play for him XD. And wow Painuser screwed idra over.

Seems the walkovers did effect the playoffs.

NASL updated their site and I was able to update with the Strelok/Haypro results. Both Squirtle and Strelok are auto qualified in that division, making it the only one with both spots already decided.
