Playoffs will for sure have the best teams

No 'bad' team is good enough to beat 3 of the other teams (you could beat Fpx and TH but you still need that 3rd W against a team like Loud or Sen)
(I actually believe in TH but most people don't rate them so I chose them)

If it were groups we could've gotten a group with
Gen.G
Fpx
TH
Sen/Loud
And
Loud/Sen
Prx
KC
Edg
(way better group)

There is nothing wrong with believing in TH

They wouldn’t put all region winners in the same group though

I also thought 2 but I've been seeing 3 everywhere
2 means almost no games tho but makes more sense with 8 teams

2 wins could mean fluke playoffs teams tho (like Gen.G beating Fpx and Heretics to make playoffs)

And where did I do that?
KC EMEA winner
Prx Pacific runner up
Edg China winner
Loud/Sen Americas runner up

it should be two games based on schedule

March 14: Swiss Stage
March 15: Swiss Stage
March 16: Swiss Stage
March 17: Swiss Stage
March 18: Swiss Stage

5 days of swiss, 2 games per day means:

14+15: opening matches
16: 1-0 qualification matches
17: 0-1 elimination matches
18: 1-1 qualification matches
