since the 1st seed of group A and B start off in the upper semifinals, do they guarantee themselves a spot in masters if they win their first match?
yeah basically, since once they win their first series they are already guaranteed a 3rd place, and emea have 3 slots
Yeah high odds that some teams get screwed over cause of it, idk why they don’t do it like in NA with four passing over and fair odds to everyone
not really they need to win the lower finals to get a slot into masters but if you get first seed you should get an advantage no
