Who is Soo actually competing with? He will be on 3300 points, tied with Duckdeok, passed Naniwa. And it lists results from Maru, Dear and Hyun. So who is he actually competing against? I thought Revival cannot get passed 2300 points. Is it Vortix?
If soO got to round of 8, he's competing against basically anyone else who is in Season Finals but doesn't have a spot yet.

there is still the group stage and if you come 1st or 2nd in that he will get 50points = an extra 25

so I guess you can't really say unless they showed it somewhere due to lack of consistency
Random it is!
It's doesn't seem to be completely random. As far as I remember, in European region it's random with the following limitations:
1) Group winners face group runner-ups in Ro8 (e.g., A1 vs B1 or B2 vs D2 are prohibited).
2) Players already played each other in the Ro16 stage can't face each other until finals. For example, if A1 is in the upper bracket, than A2 will be in the lower bracket and so on.
As I can see, both Season 1 and Season 2 America brackets match the just listed conditions.

Scroll down further. Group stage hasnt been played. He can get 25 points there if he gets top 2 in group.

Just realized something really interesting: Revival is at 3175 points while Naniwa is at 3200. Revival currently has 25 points guaranteed for challenger, but if he wins his challenger group stage then he can earn another 25 points, tying with Naniwa. So if 3200 is the points needed for 16th place, we might have a tie breaker match between Revival and Naniwa :o Yep Revival is still in the running. We don't yet know how the tie breakers will be done, but right now it's doing 50/50 odds on the tie breaker of Revival vs Naniwa if it happens.
I think the chances for revival to pass through a challenger group is close to 100%..

Oh my, this is so addictive. Watching the numbers grow up and down.
Thanks for increasing the number of simulations by the way. How long to make 15 000 000 MC simulations?

I think it takes about 30 minutes. About half of that time is spent looking for the significant events for each player. I will admit though that it could still be optimized a lot more.

Indeed the opposition wont be at all scary for him. I really hope that if it comes down to a draw they have them play a bo7 or something for it rather then inventing some other way to decide it (say most points in actual WCS tourneys, best result most recent WCS etc ) since nothing about this has been announced beforehand.

Should have them both come out to Blizzcon and play a preliminary BoX to qualify or at least do it in some way so it's not cross server

that would be the best but do you really think they will pay for an extra player? sure blizzard can obviously afford it (lol) but well.. will they? I doubt any team or player want to pay for themselves to go there for just a tiebreaker.

Doesn't count, you could just buy a hat made of food. It has to be a currently owned hat.

I accept a 'food hat' if he bakes it himself.
