Reason for single elim

#1

Paraplant

I think that rito made kick off single elim so that they can scale up the significance of each major as the season goes. So Madrid is cool but not the strongest teams, then Shanghai a bigger masters and then champs.
Also i bet they hoped for upsets so that there is a variety of teams across 3 events

Fnatic will always qualify. They are an established team with good strats and comp. So we are bound to see them in every international event no matter the format to qualify for them.

Still a L move by riot. They should have opted for double elimination.
