Now that the regular season is over, the playoffs are set to begin Wednesday, June 15th. Before that however, we have a few tiebreaks to play in order to determine the final seeding for the playoffs:
Below are the tibreak games that will be broadcast Tuesday, June 14th @ 9pm EST.
Playoff Seeding Tiebreaks
Axslav vs CrunCher (for 16th / 17th seed)
TT1 vs HasuObs (for 12th / 13th seed)
BRAT_OK vs Socke (for 18th / 19th seed)
Fenix vs IdrA vs NaDa vs SjoW (for 7th / 8th / 9th / 10th seed)
Grand Final Seeding Tiebreaks
SeleCT vs Sen (for 6 / 7th seed)
How does it work?: BO1 games.
What about the 4 way tie: A four player bracket, seeded randomly. NaDa vs Fenix first, IdrA vs SjoW. The winners fight for 7/8 seed... the losers fight for 9/10 seed.

awesome something fun with a ton of good players to watch on tuesday
|
i think your seeding numbers are wrong. Nada/Idra/Sjow/Fenix cant get 7,8,9,10 as those are already taken. You mention Select vs Sen for 6/7 right after that. Can't have two 7s
|
Since nobody is being eliminated bo1 seems best. Should be exciting!
|
loser of select-sen is 7th seed. winner of the 4 way tie is 7th seed aswell? confused.
looking forward to some good and important nasl games!
|
select vs sen is for grand final, the rest is for playoffs.
Are the current standings posted anywhere? I guess they'll be updated after the EU cast on the nasl site, just curious if someone has already compiled them.
|
i think i figured this out. Those are two different brackets. Select vs Sen is championship bracket ie already in finals.
The other numbers are the losers bracket trying to get to finals.

Idra with 3 ZvTs. looking good!

BO1 :/ are you serious? I know these matches have to be broadcast but that kinda sucks to have your tiebreak be determined by one game.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but if fenix/idra/nada/sjow are fighting for 7th/8th/9th/10th does that mean the 4 of them get into the playoffs no matter what? From what I understood from the casters it almost sounded like idras tiebreaker games would be just to be in the playoffs.

Nobody is getting eliminated. This is just for bracket seeding so that's why it's just a BO1.

They just played for 9 weeks and no one is getting eliminated.

The seed that select/sen are fighting for is the 6th/7th seed in the LAN as they have already qualified (finishing in the top 2 of his group).
The 7th etc. seed that the other players are fighting for is a seed in the qualifier brackets for the LAN. They need to seed the 11th-30th players in order to determine the 5 brackets of 4 people.
These qualifiers are going to be intense. Looking at some of those groups of 4... so many awesome players that aren't going to make it through.

The top 30 are in the playoffs. They are fighting for seeding within the playoffs. 10 players qualified for the grand finals, but none of those 4 made it directly into the finals.

will be so nice when season is over so i can finally leave this league... unplayable lag and on insane times at night -_-;;
And if you hit the LAN and win $50000... are you going to change your mind? 
It's long and arduous... but the prize pool is crazy.
