Well, being in the pool guarantees a finish of at least 24th. That, plus the exponential point distribution means that it's difficult to fall out of the pools. | ||

Ret has a pretty good seed to! Idra seems to have the worst of luck, but I'm not sure MC will necessarily take out Bomber. man, just a few hours since MLG Orlando finishes and I'm already hyped for Providence. | ||

As of now, you have the top 8 from the Open Bracket get seeded into the different Loser Champ bracket slots, and then the bottom 8 from the Open Bracket playing each other... but if the Open Bracket Tournament is played until you get top 4, won't the bottom 8 already be playing each other? So does this mean that the Open Bracket Tournament is basically the same set-up and blood bath as other MLG tournaments? | ||

Incontrol would be the next and frankly he just doesn't deserve to be up there with the rest of these players and be guaranteed such a spot. | ||
