Will geng throw their playoff games?

All they need rn is a win against TS this week to secure a champs slot.
Wouldnt make sense for them to throw in playoffs and focus on champs ? ( two extra weeks of prep)

idk but I want sen to throw their playoff games
because 100t qualifying would be absurd
and they weren't consistent throughout the year so its obvious that rit0's champs points idea is shit

throwing on purpose makes sense for World Champions, i agree

Sounds like you answered your own questions...

yes and then Riot give their spot to Loud for no apparently reason

If they throw im quitting Esports

Dont you understand that they would get 4th seed?

Would not make sense because GEN.G would be seeded much lower at Champions.

They would care because when being lower seeded, you have to prepare more games than if you get 1st

And then you get the 4th seed and likely a death group

seeding doesnt mean that much in champs as compared to masters where you get auto playoff qual

sen has lots of points
so if they're not in top 3 they easily make it over 0thieves
also i have sen winning all of their remaining games and 0thieves losing to loud and eg

dude, champs is a 16 team event. The seeding doesnt matter as much

Personally I think it does.
Most regions have a very strong top 2.
The tradeoff for having 2 weeks extra prep in return for a harder path isnt worth it.
If it was swiss I wouldnt mind because there is more room for error, but champs is gsl.

Although a bad comparison, at last champs none of the lowest seeds made it out of groups.

Yes I hope 100throws lose all their games too

How does beating TS secure champs? They’d have 15 points, and it’s still possible for PRX to get 4th place in playoffs with 16 points.

it will be hilarious for geng to lose in their upper match and drx bombs out as 4th, thus geng making champs with points and drx qualifying for non of the events this year
