Bro the format SUCKS

BR never went to top 8 last year (all 3 events lol)

If NIP beat Leviathan (mickey mouse battle), a BR team(LOUD) will be automatically in top 8 without doing anything lol

That's kinda cringe LUL

Who asked?

cant believe xand will finally get a result lower than 10th in a lan

😭😭😭😭

yeah the format doesnt make a lot of sense. Idk see how NIP beating Leviatan (for example) would automatically mean that Loud get a better seed than KRU, despite having done nothing to prove they're "better"

yea KRU deserves it more. at least they were in top 4

Let's just collectively hope that Lev wins

Wait the 4th 1st seed will be Loud or KRU right?

Yeah i just checked its a mistake the winner of LOUD and KRU will get the double elim slot not the NiP vs LEV

I think the logic is is that the winner of that LCQ match indicates a stronger region. Also they’re not gonna put both the teams from one region in groups and the one team from the other in playoffs.

Kind of bullshit that APAC/BR both get a free slot to playoffs when there is no garuntee that they would have even made it out of groups. DRX have traditionally been better than PRX, yet don’t even get a chance to fight for that free playoff slot like BR/LATAM do in the LCQ ;(

Also how does say Leviatan beating NiP mean KRU is better than Loud?

I guess you could say that means the competition in BR/LATAM has produced a better team, so the top team from respective region gets top seed and advances directly to playoffs. Just my 2 cents take it with a grain of salt

APAC deserve it cuz 2 of their teams were in top8 at champs but BR doesn't deserve it. should just go to KRU

If NIP win, LOUD will be 1st seed
If LEV win, KRU will be 1st seed
