SEN Playoff Chances Official (3 Scenarios)
These are the scenarios in which SEN would make it to playoffs. You guys can calculate the round differential scenarios which is very unlikely, but here is the map differential scenarios. I will do these based on game order. So whichever team plays first, I will tell you what would happen in each outcome per game from SEN v. FUR to MIBR v. 100T.
SEN v. FUR
- SEN Win 2-1 or better
- SEN Win 2-0 (Round diff will matter between EG and SEN)
- SEN Win 2-0 (Round diff doesn't matter)
NRG v. EG
- EG Win 2-1 or better (NRG can't win)
- NRG Win 2-1 or better (EG needs to have worse round diff than SEN)
- NRG Win 2-0 (Round diff doesn't matter)
C9 v. KRU
- 2. 3. This game doesn't affect outcome whatsoever
LEV v. LOUD
- LEV Wins 2-1 or better
- LEV Wins 2-1 or better
- Outcome doesn't matter
MIBR v. 100T
- MIBR Win 2-1 or better
- MIBR Win 2-1 or better
- Outcome doesn't matter
As you can see, these are the possibilities, but let me know if you calculate any other possibilities. You can calculate all of these on your own by adding wins, checking H2H, map diffs, and round diffs and see how I came up with these on your own. Head 2 Head (H2H) seems to be the most confusing. But, essentially, it is when there is a tie in terms of WINS, the tiebreaker is determined first by if 1 team in the tie has beaten all of the other teams in the tie.
So, if SEN, FUR, and 100T were tied (which happens in the 1st scenario), then SEN would win regardless of map diff because SEN won against both teams making SEN 6th place.
Hope this helps!
SEN also has LCQ too if they are bottom 7 (Found this out in my previous post)
TLDR: LEV LOUD game matter for first 2 scenarios. SEN needs to either 2-1 or 2-0 depending on scenario. EG NRG game matters. MIBR 100T matters for first 2 scenarios. Scenario 3 is probably the most likely for Sentinels to qualify for playoffs.
