If we don’t get the Swiss format for the Sao Paulo event. Seeing a Swiss group stage would be so insane with every single team involved.

Here is an explainer for the PGL 2021 Major in CS. https://www.esportsbets.com/news/pgl-major-2021-the-swiss-system-format-explained/
not a bracket its basically teams with same score play each other untill you get 3 wins or 3 losses then you qualify or get eliminated
either that or make 4 groups with 8 and 7 teams and then do bo1 round robin ,,,,,,top 3 in each group qualify for single elim playoff,,,,, first seed gets a by
nah it's definitely gonna be six group with 5 teams, and first in group would go to playoffs, and second in group would enter another bracket of 6 teams (probably like play-ins in worlds) to the determine the last 2 spots. and then the last 8 teams will enter the double elim bracket.
but the group draw would be really important for teams in this tournament, because there's only two slots and there's no seeding yet you can literally get a group with C9, NRG, NAVI, and FNC in one group, and the last two would be like GE and RRQ for example, that would be really sucks for them LMAO
would be weird to do round robin with 30 teams, after round 1 its 15-15
that doesnt change anything the issue isnt too many matches, its that the number of teams makes it hard to do swiss system
it would be
30
15-15
8-7-8-7
4-4-3-4-4-4-3-4
it would be simplier to do it with 32 teams
i wouldnt be agianst a china team and the gc winner being added but i know rito only wants franchise teams in this tournament
yeah unfortunately it really doesn't make any sense to do a swiss format, it's prolly gonna be a double round robin group stage
From an earlier thread:
There are rules in Chess for Swiss tournaments with an odd number of players, so they could theoretically break it down like this:
30
15 15
8 15 7
4 12 11 3
4 6 12 5 3
4 6 6 6 5 3
Assuming initial matches are Bo1 and your qualifying/elimination matches are Bo3, this would be 36 Bo1 and 24 Bo3 matches, with 5 teams receiving one BYE at some point in the stage.
This also has the advantage of dividing the field into 16 winners and 14 losers, so you can easily set up the following stage of the tournament.
my bro I understand that your keyboard probably doesn't have the ~ but why do you write Paolo instead of Paulo💀💀
and not just you but many other people around this forum. that's crazy
