If say I wanted to make a vlr account for every single possible pickem for emea lcq, theoretically speaking how many accounts would I have to make?

Depends on how many teams in each lcq

Not relevant and not important

why would you want someone else to waste his time and calculate this for you

1 acc
Cuz M3C will win in every timeline

something with permutations idk

Edit : its 2^14 different accounts
Pretty simple actually. There 14 games total and 2 outcomes for each one. So 2^14

2^14=16384 accounts idk if this is right

edit: I'm very sure this is right

So if you number the teams from 1 through 8, then for each match, you can either choose the lower number team to win or the higher number team to win, so there are two choices you can make per match. Since there are 14 matches, you would need 2^14=16384 pickems to account for each bracket once.

absolutely bullshit what everyone says

its only in the hundreds of tries not thousands

please guys use common sense its only 8 teams

no way it has 14000 possibility

14 matches, 2 possible outcomes in each of them, so 2 ^ 14 = 16384

idk if im thinking of this wrong, but isn't this the correct answer?:

i know that this is for a single elim bracket, i couldn't find anything for a double elim bracket

and if it's wrong can someone explain why
