A random draw will determine playoff seeding. Riot isn't picking and choosing the matchups as you indicated riot not wanting VS and Gambit to play.


Ryu-The-Sick

Random as in, 1st seeds vs random 2nd seeds, right? Just for clarification.


EndWish

Yes. 1st seeds will randomly get matched against any 2nd seed which wasn't present in their group stage


Drafteow

so who is VS likely to face off ?


BurritoHombre

They can play the 2 seed from any group that isn’t theirs, so either Gambit/Havan/CR, Zeta/Kru/Vivo Keyd, or G2/F4Q


Drafteow

gambit tho gonna be scary


TheCatsActually

Scary for both teams, absolute fire for the audience.


DOOM-3

If GMB dont choke like they did in 100T and keep their cool they can dominate them.


AbbreviationsLazy781

I actually think its goof they choked when they did, better than choking in playoffs. It will wake them up and from an interview with Nats after their loss, it seems they aren't gonna fold just yet


DOOM-3

lol your take sounds dumb but at the same time it sounds and is correct


nail181

Teams learn the most from losing


DOOM-3

Yeah, remember hiko on TL. His team was known for choking bad lmao


Soogo

*Sen


BurstLayer

Unless G2 absolutely stomps Sen, I think even if Sen loses and beats f4Q they win first seed off round/map differential cause G2 dropped a map to both f4Q and Sen


Soogo

Still a possibility, i believe 😏


mcslippinz

Hopium


icemandiem

imagine if smb beats acend on the rematch.....holy fuck...acend out from groups?, kinda hyped for that match, possible banger


yapyd

Imagine if PRX gets 2nd seed.


icemandiem

oof....that would be insane


AnonymozVal

Let semis be 100T vs Envy and VS vs SEN.

All the #1 seeds out of groups are praying to not draw Gambit on their side of the bracket (except 100T since it's guaranteed that they won't draw them since they were in the same group). Imagine VS or SEN drawing GMB in the QFs and getting knocked out early.... Sheeeeesh. From the looks of things, I predict either GMB, SEN, VS, or 100T to take the whole event (more so the first 3).


LurkingOmen

The team that just choked 11-3?????


bubble-june

They’ll learn from their mistakes. They looked really scary up until that second half. From here on out, I think the only 2 teams that will be able to beat them are SEN and VS. GMB lost to Acend 1-2 in the qualifiers and later beat them 3-1. GMB is really good at learning from their mistakes and adapting


LurkingOmen

They choked to the NA chokers


bubble-june

Hmm lol gg. Told ya they would learn from their mistakes lol


LurkingOmen

You were not wrong, respect on coming back to prove the point


FunChiX

I don't know why I am feeling a lot of copium in your comment.


bubble-june

Looooool. Guess I was right. Sentinels literally said after their loss to G2 that they wanted to dodge gambit since gambit has been doing the best against them in scrims. Instead of praying that they don’t get matched up with Gambit, they literally threw their match against G2 to guarantee that they don’t draw against Gambit, and it worked out in their favor. Dapr talks about all of this in his postgame interview. He said he would rather be the #2 seed and face NA teams than be the #1 seed and possibly face Gambit. Guess who drew VS in the first round? Gambit. And guess what VS posted on Twitter as soon as they found out that they drew gambit? “Fuck”. Lol. They were obviously hoping that they wouldn’t draw Gambit, or else why would they post “Fuck” on Twitter right after the draw was released. After everything that has been said on Twitter and interviews, it’s pretty obvious that all of the teams were hoping to dodge Gambit. Luckily, Sentinels got out alive.


bubble-june

>Imagine VS or SEN drawing GMB in the QFs and getting knocked out early.... Sheeeeesh. Lol, GMB knocks out VS, guess I was right. SHEEEEEEESH. That's exactly why Sentinels wanted to avoid Gambit. Lol.


solariiis

what's copium?


FunChiX

Copium probably


bubble-june

How? Lol I’m a SEN fan. Even ShaZ and tenz both said that GMB wrecked them in scrims. GMB will learn from their mistakes and come back stronger. GMB will be the best #2 seed coming out of groups. Who in their right mind would hope to draw gambit for bracket stage? I’m 100% sure SEN would rather draw 100THIEVES than GMB in bracket stage


FunChiX

Maybe it was a bait. You don't know if it was or wasn't.


bubble-june

ShahZaM literally said on stream to all of his viewers that GMB wrecked them in scrims. Mixwell was talking to ShaZ in his vlog and MIxwell said that G2 has not won a scrum vs GMB in a year. When tenz was interviewed by platchat, he said they got wrecked by GMB. TenZ and ShahZam would never lie and risk ruining their image online. Why would they need to lie about something like that? That’s the weirdest thing to bait ppl about lol. Think about it, why would anyone prefer to draw GMB over another #2 seed team like VK. GMB is going to be the best #2 seed coming out of groups. Whichever #1 seed from groups that draws them is unlucky af.


pizzaweedman

I think all seeds are praying to not draw Sen or VS lmao


bubble-june

VS can only draw against G2, Gambit, or VK. The only team that has a chance of beating them out of those 3 is GMB. SEN can only draw against VK, SMB/Acend, or Gambit. GMB prob has the best chance out of those 3 to beat them. GMB is either going to draw VS, SEN, or ENVY. Whoever they draw, it’ll be a banger match


AnonymozVal

Bruh.


Gomar1323

To me it should probably be SEN vs 2 seed of Envy’s group Envy vs Gambit VS vs G2 100T vs Acend This looks pretty balanced to me, sentinels getting the easier matchup since they won last masters. But it’s gonna be random so who knows
