Bracket stage sign-up will be available for 64 intrepid players at the conclusion of all online qualifiers. Due to the limited number of spots, preference will be given to players based on region, 2016 WCS performance, and in-game ladder performance. | ||

 .Use “total bo3-wins” -> “map score (6 : 3 > 6 : 4 > 5 : 3 etc)” -> “direct bo3-wins among tied” -> “direct map score among tied” -> “one round of decider matches bo1 or 3” -> “coin toss” https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/5nrsq7/iem_announces_76player_tournament_with_250000/dcf29ll/ They will use map score first, if two players have the same match score. So for example Showtime would be first over TY at IEM if they had the same results as at WESG. | ||

In the case of the Major/Elazer/Scarlett tie you could assume that the results would have been the same though because it wasn't decided how the whole thing was going to go until the final match of the group was played. It's not like the TY/Showtime tie where TY had the group won after 4 matches and could just do whatever in the last match. However, it was just a theoretical example to demonstrate how the rules are different. It's not so much assuming the results would have been the same under different rules, it's exemplifying how different rules would play out for the same results. | ||

The final match between Elazer-Scarlett decided seeding. 2-0 gave Elazer easy 10k $ or somewhat risky 20-50k to Scarlett. 2-1 reversed the risk, but we could assume Elazer felt more confident against Showtime. Also having different set of rules it is most unlikely Elazer would lose a map against Zerghandi as it would have a different meaning and openings would have been safe and the final map score would have been different. | ||

I can assure you that this is false. | ||
