You can do a mixed system, many sports do it. Higher ranked players are distributed over multiple groups and lower ranked players are then seeded in randomly. That way we don't get stupid shit like Bomber or Check going out before CL even begins.

WCS without Bomber would feel so strange and so wrong. I had already planned for his games vs Scarlett in challenger.

So if there were 8 top tier players and 24 low-tier with top 4 going through, you don't mind only one top tier and 3 low tier qualifying?


It's a Wildcard Ladder qualifier. Most of them had a chance to go through in the other qualifiers.


"Most of them" So Check and Bomber get fucked over and that doesn't matter?


They know they only had one shot.


Haha wow. You really don't like having High-level players to watch eh? Got to have those mid-masters protoss to support!

There isn't a single American player I like. Bomber is my favorite Terran. But the system is fair.

Unlucky Bracket man

That bracket wasnt unlucky, these brackets are bull****


You can say that again. Ridiculous.


Was there really no seeding?

Nathanias has the slot of the usual #2 seed.



Really ?

Yep, he's on the very bottom of the bracket, usually the #2 seed. "HechNo" is seeded at #1. If they sort differently Jig has the #2 seed, but still.
Xenocider, Bomber, Check and hendralisk in the same bracket with only 1 qualifiying slot

Don't worry, Hack dropped out of Premier League so there's a 5th spot available so it's possible (almost certain) two of them (Check and Bomber) will qualify.

Seeding based on past performance isn't fair for a wildcard qualifier.

If the low tier player makes it through the bracket, yea. I believe he earned his shot.

It's good to remove it where possible. Seeding is a great way to do that, every sport in the world does for a reason.
