Is there a way to tell who gets first ban in NA vct bracket? For example who gets first pick between LG vs Rise and TSM vs T1?

That's what i thought but lg got first ban vs pioneers when pioneers qualified in challengers 1 and lg qualified in challengers 2. I feel like that should make pioneers higher seed.

Higher seed have a right to decide who get first ban... maybe pioneer gave lg first chance to decide

Well LG got first map pick too. And Faze did vs Rise too and they should be lower seed. Coin toss is only thing that makes sense.

EDIT: Pioneers decided that they'll be Team B hence LG banned and picked first

T1 have the higher seed so they should pick first. First ban is bad tho cuz what if the other team was gonna ban that

Higher seed/higher bracket gets to pick the first
