I'm so confused about this format... Read it twice now but still confused. I wonder if the players themselves understand how the format and tournament goes.
I agree with the predictions except I think it'll be 2-0 for ByuL and 2-1 for Zest.
Isn't this format kind of dangerous in the late rounds? You might have people in desperate need for a win playing people who don't have any chance of anything anymore

They have some things to try to keep that in check. Firstly, the whole relegation system making sure you have incentive to try to get 8th instead of 9th or 10th etc. And secondly, there's money on the line for every match. ~700$ for 2-0, ~620$ for 2-1, ~265$ for 1-2, ~175$ for 0-2. So you're incentivized to keep winning.

Also that's why they are playing the teamkills on week 1
