Now to understand what i am saying here it is better to open both bracket on other tabs while reading this
Above is bracket used for SEA challengers finals
if you look at bracket closely
4 teams i.e. Full Sense, Paper Rex, X10 and CBT
would not have came 10th place no matter what
now onto masters 2
here lets imagine KRU and Crazy Racoon lose their first matches in upper round 1
both teams goes to lower round 1
Now imagine FNC, X10,V1 and sharks losing thier matchups in upper quaterfinals
Now there are two case Scenarios
Case 1 :
FNC and V1 goes to lower round 1
so FNC vs CR and V1 vs KRU for 9th/10th place elimination
X10 and Sharks Goes to lower round 2 will fight against winners of Lower Round 1 for 7th/8th place elimination
Case 2 :
X10 and Sharks goes to lower ruond 1
so X10 vs CR and Sharks vs KRU for 9th/10th place elimination
FNC and V1 goes to lower round 2 will fight against winners of Lower Round 1 for 7th/8th place elimination
The reason why I said all this for is simple
if Case 1 is followed then 4 teams i.e. Vikings,x10,sharks,Nuturn will get guaranteed 175 points as they wont get in 9th/10th place
if Case 2 is followed then 2 teams i.e. Sentinels and Team Liquid will get guaranteed 175 points as they wont get in 9th/10th place
SEA Challengers finals Followed case 1 but it doesn't make sense to be followed here
So I hope case 2 is followed in rekjyavik
Also if they follow case 2 then riot is not giving brazil as much advantage as people are thinking ... because 1 eu and 1 na team have guaranteed 175 points while both brazil team have a chance of ending up with 150 points
