Threaded Linear

so i see 100T & FNC won their games today and are going to Shanghai but there's still 7 other teams in their brackets and I'm just curious as to why they're still playing. Is there some sort of reward to whoever wins the Grand Finals? How many teams go to Shanghai? Do only the lower round losers get eliminated?

ohhh ok gotcha. I see on https://www.vlr.gg/event/1999/champions-tour-2024-masters-shanghai there's only 2 slots for NA, so other than the winner of the grand finals, who makes it? the team that lost?

Grand finals winner goes straight to playoffs. America #1 seed is in the "playoffs" tab. #2 and #3 are in "Swiss stage"
