Group C is too hard and Group D is way too easy
Seems unbalanced

Seems easy for EMEA 4, which is unfair.
Edit: thought 2 teams qualify per group, my bad.

Am I understanding this wrong? To get 4th you only need to beat 3 out of 16 teams?

And since the top 4 is single elim ,you only need to win 2 matches to win the tourney after you reach top 4

Could be 4 if you play the same team in groups from the loser bracket.

Is it official Riot regions distribution or is it you making preds?

I'm confused, group C is much stronger than D, also A is kinda trash too except NA #1

i think that's more balanced

A: NA 1 + EU 4 + SEA1 + BR2
B: EU 1 + NA 3 + JP1 + SEA2
C: KR 1 + EU 2 + LATAM + JP2
D: BR 1 + NA 2 + EU3 + KR2

but then group D might be the group of death with Acend and Vision Strikers

Groups is double elimination. So if you beat a team they could still play you again in the bracket final.

prolly 2nd, EMEA 1 will prolly be rewarded with not having an NA team in their group

B: EU1 + NA3+JP1+SEA2
C: KR1+EU2+LATAM+JP2
D: BR1+NA2+EU3 +KR2

teams in the tournament yeah, but for emea you already played/placed better than 3 other teams that you won't be in group stage with, so acend could play against 5 teams in the tournament but they actually already beat 3 of them, so total 8 teams.
For comparison iceland SEN only beat 3 teams(win 4 games) yet won masters(they beat fnatic twice). fnatic played 6 teams in iceland(played SEN twice). a team had to win 4-5 games without losing to win iceland. in berlin winning 5 games and losing 0 gets you the win.
While I don't like this bracket its not as it seems, atleast its not all single elim like EMEA was before stage 3.
