Also thanks Stockholm for doing the preview once more, looking forward to a potential review!
Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.

The only massive issue in my opinion is let's say Amaterasu win all future tournaments then Poosy or even PB win the 'final' one then all of Amaterasu's 'work' goes unrewarded over the entire season. Seems pretty silly to me.
I won lots of things, I came 2nd and 3rd in lots of things, I guess I did some other shit too........ I'm also an FSE legend, probably most commonly described as a cunt. If the shit I do doesn't make sense in your head, well fuck you because it makes sense in mine.

Which i did, against known and reputed player, some of them considered legend, such as, Mandarin, Ledger, Tiberias, Herishey, Hokej, Troister, Axiom, Evanovic, Stark, Eddie, Jammo, Bagins, Freddie, Python. I didn't had a good relationship with most of them, but i congratulate them for what they did, and i had pleasure facing them.

EGS is "boring" cause we didn't see any major team or roster changes for the past 3 months and have, like any other sports, the top teams who play for tournament wins, and sometimes upsets

True, but there's a different mentality when money is involved, so teams/players play differently, we all know we're fighting for top 8 for the championships and not fighting for a cash prize, so teams like PB probably aren't actually getting exhausted playing the 6 EGS tournaments as it doesn't really matter since they'd get top 8 by just playing. Teams from 6th position to 10th position are the teams having to actually play EGS at this stage as they're the ones fighting for the last two spots and now with Legends involved, it makes it all the more exciting. PB, Tira and Poosy at this stage will stay top 3 even if they lose quarters because all other teams aren't making it past semis.

Amaterasu has done an incredible job and almost certainly deserve to be in the NW history books, but even if they win the last two matches, since there's no real benefit of winning at this point as coming second or first place probably guarantees you an easy knockout for the championship, so it's just playing for playing, the reward for playing well in these tournaments is NW fame (which is what people actually care about the most) and an easier championship bracket.

GG, im happy with our performances tonight, though it sucks we got 3rd in the groups instead of 2nd because points difference instead of points/rounds won was chosen as the primary tiebreaker after wins. The reason this still doesn't make sense to me and basically every tournament has used it the other way around, is that points shows how close you actually were to winning all matches, for example in groups of 5 teams, you can win a maximum of 20 rounds, meaning having 18 points would be ranked over 17 points (assuming equal wins of course) . Meanwhile round difference is much more arbitrary and penalizes you for beating an easier team 5-1 instead of 5-0, and thus inflates the value of rounds lost against easier teams you would beat anyways, while deflating the value of additional rounds won against harder teams that beat you.

It does not quite add up when NPP beat Virgins, got more rounds than Virgins, and had the same wins as Virgins and yet end up 3rd place in the group stage and not second with Virgins 2nd?

Chuckster potentially set up the challonge wrong?
So let’s just ignore someone like Maskman who knows next to nothing about leading and the capabilities of regiments performing well in a linebattle type of event.
To state that anyone on a “good day could beat the 77y/15thYR” is just a meme of its own, if that was the case why don't you beat the 77y or 15thYR then!?

Nothing to be worried about, with their current performances of course.

no, the whole season the points difference was the first tiebreaker
