I don't understand how they can have 4 for IM because of all the dead teams, supposedly, yet 16 for Open when more than half of the division is dead, just like last season.

JDMYoshiokaMust be a typo.

I think it's because so many teams died this season.

Even if a lot of IM teams died (4??) i'm not sure why they cant do a 8 team playoffs and then just move 1-2 teams up to invite like every other season
wasn't meat market #6 before playoffs last season???

SCREAMtop 25% of a division is usually what we aim for
Nice to know that 16/38 = 42.1% is close to 25%.

even tho this kind of fucks over my team, i think its a good move and will make IM playoffs more interesting in the long run.
koko♥butts: i guess with 4 teams playoffs is shorter, its more similar to LAN, and it looks like theyre gonna do best of 3s, so a team cant "luck win" against another team
koko♥butts: i like it tbh

If true and not a typo, a terrible move by ESEA that just fucks over 4 teams who were fighting hard all season for placement.
I don't understand the logic at all. For the past 2 seasons, ESEA has been close to possibly closing TF2 all together. Why would you not award 4 ACTIVE and COMPETITIVE IM teams that fought to make the top 8?? Forfeit wins mean nothing to me in this situation and don't give me any bullshit about "luck wins" happening.
The bottom line is, if you fucking lose in the playoffs when everything is on the line, you simply are not the best team. Stop trying to give excuses for losses that have not even happened yet.

The only division that is getting the bo3 (that isn't invite) is CS:GO Prem, TF2 IM is still one map rounds.

If only we had an ESEA admin to come and explain things to us and make us feel better about this situation. If only ESEA made these kinds of decisions with full transparency and disclosure in a timely manner.
If only any of these things were a surprise to anyone ever, by now.
