What does TS have to do to qualify for playoffs? and what about the chances for them to get top 2?
They have a 5-3 record right now, which means they're at the top of their group (over Gen.G at 4-3) and have the highest round differential at +33. Judging by the fact that the rest of their group is BLEED, Global, and T1 (2-5, 2-5, and 1-6 respectively), they should be guaranteed not only playoffs, but also second seed in Alpha.
correct me if i am wrong but i think the group alpha/omega rankings don't matter this stage? like it's the overall ranking in the league (stage 1 + stage 2 standings) that would be the one considered, instead?
although I do think they are in a pretty solid position to qual for playoffs atp. winning at least 1 match in the next 2 (T1, Gen) would solidify that, winning both would allow them better seeding
