2. seed can't meet before the final match. Berbo: I can say the same about you guys sticking to the other
idea, it doesn't really contributes to the discussion but ok
matte40, on 03 December 2018 - 09:02 PM, said: It's just not worth it to protect the 1. and 2. seed from meeting
each other. It's far away from fair that if a worse clan manages to
win either of the top 2 clans, the worse team has to win again the
same top 2 team before getting to the finals. INVIL (hopefully I
remember correctly) managed to win FAME in group stage, so they got
the easier side of the playoff bracket as they deserved. As a
viewer of the tournament, I didn't see any problem with FAME and
CSA meeting in the semi-finals, that was just what FAME deserved.Berbo: That's very subjective, "it's not worth" could be rephrased
to "I believe it's not worth" as by all means it is worth
based on numerous arguments and the whole idea of seeding. I see
bigger damage for the tournament to have top teams meeting early
than same teams playing again.

possible that 1. and 2. clans meets in the semi-finals, but
because you don't really have a great system to seed the clans
from. I understand that this is kind of "finals" for the global map
season, but then again the tournament itself has nothing to do with
the season. It's not ideal to seed the clans from the season
because it's not about who played the best, but also who played the
most. And that's why ROIDS isn't 1. seed even tho it should be.
Luckily it wasn't so that CSA were 1. and ROIDS Berbo: You have no issues as a viewer to see CSA vs FAME in semi
finals but as a viewer it bothers you to see teams who played in
group stage to potentially meet again? I'm trying to understand it,
as it's a bit confusing. Tournament has everything to do with the
season. It is the tournament to mark the end of season and the
seeds are in a way "reward" for the effort, regardless did they
play best or most. Leagues in football are won by teams who
performed best throughout the season, not those which are better on
paper. We've seen it many times. Seeds aren't and will never be a
measure of skill but a previously deserved rank which carries over
to the next competition.
matte40, on 03 December 2018 - 09:02 PM, said: Making top 4 teams all 1. seed would be better. This way they still
couldn't meet each others in group stage, and if all of them wins
their groups they can't meet before semi-finals. Even in the
semi-finals there's only 33% chance that the 1. and 2. best teams
would meet. If you change the seeding to be like this in the
future, in my opinion you should also make all of the teams from 5.
to 8. the second seed and possibly also divide rest of the teams to
3. and 4. seeds.Berbo: Yes, that's the only idea that could work. With 1-4, there's
no system (it's not mathematically possible) to protect seed 1 and
2 and in the same time to prevent teams from same group from
meeting in semis. Cheers
