Lancer, after a group stage, 1st group will play vs 2nd, 3rd vs 4th ? or it will be randomly mixed, like 1st vs 5th, 3rd vs 7th?


Lancer
 
In the knockout rounds you mean? It goes like this

Winner of Group I plays runner-up of Group II
Runner-up of Group I plays winner of Group II
Winner of Group III plays runner-up of Group IV
and so on.

What about the group 7 in that case? Move further, to the next stage to keep the even number of players in 1/4?


Lancer
 
Since we'll need two more players to keep things even for the knockout, we'll take two more players who have the most points, but did not place winner/runner-up in their group. These two players could come from any of the groups.

Winner of Group 7 plays additional player with second most points
Runner-up of Group 7 plays additional player with most points

Edit: So if we had of had the same situation last season, Gevorg from group 1 and Generalcow from group 2 would have went through to the knockout stages, despite neither being first/second in their group.

What about when 2 or more players have the same points? What are the tiebreaking rules?


Lancer
 
Tiered

1) Most points
2) Direct wins over the other player
3) Most games played, rewarded for activity
4) 1 game tiebreaker (RvR 20k twpl) - 3 days to play (1st alphabetically is the attacker)
5) Greater activity and attempt to arrange tiebreaker
6) Coin toss

Same as last season. So a coin toss (virtual) would be the absolute last choice

this is true??? TWR play all games and only have 4 points we only play 4 games and have 4 ponits and they pass next round if this is trueee !?!??!?!?!
IM studing the possibliti for left to 1 vs 1 if this is true

sorry for mi bad english but lancy post a new deadline and after change me and mi team mate was 3 hours tomorrow waiting rivals....
Lancer
 
There was a three way tie that needed breaking. TWR won it on most games played - i.e. reward for greater activity. If you want to leave the 1v1 because of this then that is your choice.

i think this time Twr win with a good diplomacy but not for a her victoris in a camp of battel

4 ponits is very poor result

regards for activiti not regards for quality its strange!!!!
Lancer
 
It doesn't matter now, your team goes through as well due to all the controversy.

But it was not diplomacy that got TWR to go through, it was the tiered system in place to break ties, they won decisively on the third point of it.

Ok, it's been an eventful 20 hours on this forum, but let's just get on with this. When can you guys play?
Lancer
 
TWR had lessor factions by the time they played you Tarik, which put them at a disadvantage.

If the point system had been the other main way they do it, i.e. 3 points for a win, 1 point for a loss then TWR would have won decisively on points. Activity has been rewarded for years of tournaments.

acny ur best admin .
But the problem i think the best option is new deadline to thuesday and i can play with disvantatge.
I can't expose my opinion for my bad english sorry all.if im was rude
Seleucus
 
ou would not have a disadvantage Tarik. USSR would have played 3 matches and you would have played 2. Technichally you would still have an advantage over them as well. It does not matter as you have still proceeded in the tournament.

After being persistantly insulted by you on both this forum and on steam. I am growing very tired of you and I have no desire to continue debating you, when you behave in an insulting manner.
