In terms of both organisation and brackets overall this was a very poor tournament. We started 20 minutes late, had barely any admins on the server and it seemed as if no one even knew what they were doing who had admin. As for the brackets there was one clearly stacked group (group D), and what was the reward for winning that? Having to play two of the favourites we already beat in our group again in the knockouts in our first knockout match + if we had won our second. So 3 of the 'top performing' teams were placed not only in the same group but the same section of the knockouts (not even side, in one section which is literally one quarter). I don't know how anyone could have looked at that and thought it was logical. Let alone the fact we had 20 teams (5 groups of 4) where no one got knocked out with a bunch of unbalanced groups (not only ours) so the seeding was entirely pointless from the group-stage.
After what was essentially a pointless group-stage we just replayed the same match (ft5 vs RH) again instantly for us in the knockouts and as for RH they will now have to play Envy the other team in our group again instantly. So regardless of where any of the teams in our group placed only one of them could physically make it to the semi-finals regardless of how well any of them performed.
Gg to Movement's team anyway, not like it's their fault. But stay MELTED shitters.
Fralla's screenshot really sums it up of the worst part if you ignore 'group rigging' the only heavily 'stacked' group has to replay itself instantly in the knockouts therefore only one of potentially 3 of the top 4 teams in the tournament can make it as far as the semi's is quite simply one of the stupidest things I've seen in brackets to date and I survived through the Smylie and MightyPain hosting days.
TLDR; Put any of the top 3 teams, maybe even top 4 teams in our GROUP, not even our side and our section of the knockouts (1/4th) where EyeFuckers (the hosts) team is and they would have potentially made it to the finals, but instead we had to play each other twice (worth pointing out we are the only group who had to do this exact setup as well). There is no possible way both parts of this could have been done without rigging from Kennedy unless he was either blind or has a negative IQ.
