no double elim in a tournament this important is so fucking dumb. the best teams might not even make it to madrid due to this format. it’s just up to luck t1 should be going man

the semi finals (qual matches for madrid) are a b03. The best team should be winning a b03.
Sir_Johnny123 [#3]the best team should be winning a b03.
what a stupid logic....why should the 2 best teams fight for one spot while the 3rd and 4th best teams fight for another
with a decent format we would just see T1 and PRX going to madrid but riot love playing favorites with korea scene

What evidence have you got to show us that T1 was the 2nd best team?

Anyone but if you don't have a double elimination bracket you will never know who is better

i agree, double elim would give better rankings but Single elim is more intense, more weight and hype for the matches

the same way everyone was doing tier lists after each team had played 1 game... eye test

maybe in a tournement but single elim is nonsensical for sending two teams to an event, the rankings are the whole point

So its very opinion based with no clear factual evidence.
You live in a delusional fairyland. I hope you enjoy it there

Man really thinks T1 is top 2 in Pacific. They won against Bleed and Zeta and we all know those two teams were absolute dogshit. They had their chance to prove themselves. All they had to do was win PRX. They couldn’t.
LULE [#8]I think about those format shit every time it pops on vlr and it always comes down to the fact that riot just not having enough resources
Yeah, they had to pause the LCS so they could use the arena in LA. Riot juggling LOL and Valorant is fucking everything
wellinever [#26]just draw teams out of a hat to play eachother, winners go into winners bracket, losers fight through losers bracket. Been the same in FPS games for years riot trying to implement moba style stuff again into FPS
this is not moba syle its just stupid
g_torrance [#22]DRX and GENG does not look too good, t1 could've cleared either if we have lowers
i dont think so xD
Cl4W [#29]i dont think so xD
ok hindsight harry. GENG winning does not still answer what could happen if we have lowers.
