HOW DOES FIRST SEED WORK

Is it map differential or H2H first?

map first then round diff then H2H

if it was h2h first how would 100t be the first seed

if 2 teams tied = h2h
if more than 2 teams tied = map diff

this hasnt changed since the beginning of franchising i dont think

no! you are wrong, never it was. Map diff >round diff>H2H

no! you are wrong, never it was. Map diff >round diff>H2H

yeah this is what I thought it was

welkin [#2]

map first then round diff then H2H

VLR has been wrong beforre

H2H > if there’s a “paradox”, map diff > round diff

check liquipedia

NO vlr ! check the brodcast ranking also!

h2h is always first stop asking the same question over and over holy shit

2-way tie
Head-to-head Match Score
3-way tie
Head-to-head Match Series
Teams with two matchup head-to-head advantage automatically receives first of the group. Tie-breakers for the remaining two teams are determined using the above head-to-head tiebreaker process.
If no team has a two matchup head-to-head advantage (all Teams are 1-1 head-to-head), then proceed to next step of the 3-way tie-breaker process.
Map differential
Round differential
Tiebreaker Bo1 match
4+-way tie
Map differential
Round differential
Map differential among the tied teams
Round differential among the tied teams
If ties reduced to less than 3 teams after this process, tiebreakers for respective number of teams must be used to break ties among them.

h2h always first for both two way and three way
then the map diff then round diff

check liquipedia

whatever liquipedia is, that is the right order ,check the broadcast ranking! if you have doubt about it

no! you are wrong, never it was. Map diff >round diff>H2H

no! you are wrong, never it was.

you thought wrong man

Are you okay or what?

if 2 teams tied = h2h
if more than 2 teams tied = map diff

as your theory, tell me how 100 thieves number 01 and sentinels 03. in your liquipedia

though right order is,

1. 100 thieves
   2.Sentinels
   3.Kru

In map diff 100 thieves ahead, then sen ahead on round diff vs kru as there map is equal.
