What happens if G2 and Acend have the same amount of points at the end of Berlin? Who qualifies to Champions?

I believe its gonna have to go down to who made it further in Challengers

I was wrong :(

G2. Last event placement is the tiebraker rule

mixwell said on twitter that they qualify since most recent points acquired matters the most

it's down to who made it further in Masters Berlin and since G2 need to get to the finals to get to the same amount as Acend G2 will go to Champions

how would that happen?

if Acend lose here and G2 win in semifinals and lose in grand finals

interesting thing is that if G2 wins Berlin then Acend qualify to Champions anyway

In this scenario G2 would be 2nd and Acend would lose to 100T.

Look up Liquipedia, they have circuit point standings for all the regions.

For EMEA LCQ, 7 EMEA (3rd to 9th) teams from circuit points + 1 from Strike Arabia (MENA qualifiers for LCQ) battle it out for a single slot in Champions.

For NA LCQ, 8 NA teams from CP + 2 from OCE qualifiers battle out for a single slot in Champions.

For LATAM LCQ, 4 teams from LATAM + 4 teams from BR from CP compete for a single slot.

For APAC LCQ, 3 SEA + 2 KR + 2 JP (these three are from circuit points), along with 2 China and 1 South Asia (these two are from qualifier tournaments) compete for a single slot.

TSM cannot qualify for LCQ unless a NA team wins Masters 3, as TSM are currently in 11th place (3rd-10th NA play in LCQ). The winner of Masters 3 qualifies directly to Champions irrespective of the region or their current CP status; circuit points for such a region are ranked excluding the Masters 3 winner.
