why does emea have a 6 team playoff bracket and NA has 8, when there are more EMEA teams going to iceland than NA teams?

Doesnt make sense to me

it should have been 3 in NA as well. Doesn't make sense that LG gets to playoffs with a negative match score (2-3).

NA playoffs are shit because C9 and V1, 1st places, don't get any advantage over others for being the best in their groups and not losing a single game, same goes for Guard / Optic as well (2nd places)

In other words, C9 and LG are in the same position although first went 5-0 and second went 2-3

IMO best playoffs format:
A1, A2, B1, B2 - upper bracket (A1xB2, A2xB1)
A3, A4, B3, B4 - lower bracket (A3xB4, A4xB3)
A5, A6, B5, B6 - eliminated

LATAM did very well and I like their playoffs, something like that would be great in all leagues

but its sucks so much. If we had NA system we could see Acend with new patch (I think they would qualify over BBL or SMB even if they lost). Also all 4 Gambit, TL, NaVi and FPX are worthy of playoff spot and even LDN UTD looks decent. So sad that we will lose some of these teams already.
