Cloud9's Best and Worst Case Playoff Scenarios


FLOATING ON CLOUD 9 SCENARIO:

  • C9 wins both games and finishes season with a 12-8 record.
  • Team DIG wins against CLG, but loses against Team Liquid.
  • CLG loses to both TSM and DIG.
  • C9 ends the split in the 3rd place spot behind IMT and TSM.
  • As the 3rd seed, C9 will face the 6th seed during the quarterfinals (1st round), Envy.
  • If C9 make it to the semifinals (2nd round), most likely TSM will be their opponent.

 CLOUD 9’S NIGHTMARE SCENARIO:

  • C9 loses both matches against Envy and Echo Fox, finishing with a 10-8 record.
  • Envy wins both matches against Immortals and C9, finishing with a 10-8 record.
  • C9 vs. Envy match up on Saturday is extremely important because it can determine who is the 5th and 6th seed. If Envy wins both matches and C9 loses both matches this weekend, Envy will be 5th seed because they would have won both matches against C9 during the season.
  • C9 will face the 3rd seed during the quarterfinals (1st round), most likely CLG. Cloud 9's match record against CLG during the season was 0-2.
  • As the 6th seed, C9 will face the 1st seed if they make it to the semifinals (2nd round), most likely TSM. Both teams split the season matches and went 1-1.
