Just one more match MMA, one more win and Blizzcon is (essentially) in your grasp!

So many players have a huge next match making a difference of like 50% chances or more. That huge difference between going to the season finals or not.

Hi Die4Ever,

maybe this is a question already asked by a dozen other people before, i scanned a few of the backpages and could not find it so here i go.

In your september 27 results (current as of now), we find this:

Stephano, 2/300000, started with 2025 WCS points, 0.000666667%

My question is not technically about Stephano, but about how his score is not an exact 0 chances?

If we look the standings,
he is 22nd, eliminated from current season and not entering IEM NY.

So isn't his points cap at the current 2025, which cant qualify him for the current cutoff of 2625 (Maru).

I am asking because i wonder if this is due to a logical problem and if so, does that affect the rest of the results?

Thanks.

My program doesn't know he's retired. The 2 times he made it is probably from a 1st place at IEM, and a lot of really specific events happening to leave that 16th place points spot open for him.

getting to the ro4 in their respective wcs regions will be huge for fellows such as jjakji, targa, genius, dear, nerchio, and trap. they're still a hail mary pass from making it to blizzcon but given how many favorites (innovation, bomber, mvp, sOs, etc) are out of this seasons wcs, the season 3 finals could be anybodies for the taking.

Now that the complete official player list has been announced for IEM these will go away.
Again, thanks to Die4ever for his awesomeness!

Actually it was not about being retired, or the specific sequence of events. Those I understand well.

The real issue here is that I dont know how to read properly, because it says in plain english:

-IEM ro16 with the 8 qualified players + 8 random players that are either still in premier league or have at least 1000 WCS points

I wrongly assumed the next step of knowing every possible player, which was my mistake. Sorry about that, and keep up the good work. Many of us actually enjoy seeing the results, at least those near the cutoff. Adds to the anticipation of matches. Thanks again.

You should include what happens if Naniwa wins his Challenger bracket/group. Only 75 more points but it could make a big difference.

Mark my words. Blizzcon will have PvP finals and possibly even all protoss top-4. They know their race is the best atm and are not winning any tournaments on purpose waiting for the big bucks of blizzcon.

Maru needs to make it to the season finals to be secured a spot.
-------------------------------------------Maru Prime gets 16th place in Season 3 Finals
This happens 16.85% of the time. When it does, it increases Maru Prime's chances to 98.84%.

-------------------------------------------Maru Prime gets 16th place in Season 3 Finals
-------------------------------------------Maru Prime gets 1st place in Korea Placement
This happens 3.35% of the time. When it does, it increases Maru Prime's chances to 94.17%.

I'm too tired to add in the GSL ro8 and new IEM players, I'll do the next update tomorrow.

Not safe yet, but he would have been nearly out had he lost. If he gets to the Ro4, then he's essentially in.
Playing better than standard requires deviation. This divergence usually results in sub-standard play.
