Can we get some clarification on whether a fixture is still two maps and what the points distribution will be?
Permzilla we summon you
Also using round difference as a deciding factor for tiebreakers seems arbitrary.
If I am behind in a match with limited time I am likely going to take big risks to go for the win rather than keep playing the same way and hope for a different outcome.
Yet a team who turtles for the low scoring loss could be automatically rated above me in tiebreaker?
I don’t have a better solution and it’s probably a non-issue in terms of weekly ranking, but if I missed out on the playoffs because of this I would be mad 8)

Google Buchholz System for an alternative
When does S20 open sign ups?
How many teams willl be in the playoffs?
Will the lower divisions (5 and 6) or Tier 4 in this case be sub-divided like how there was NA Steel (Red) and NA Steel (Blue) in UGC?
If not, will there be placement medals for lower tiers as well? I think it should at least be rewarded for some teams to get 2nd or 3rd place while playing in a tier with over 100 other teams.

I’m not answering questions becaue if you had read the OP, you’d know that I’ll be answering most of them on Fully Charged. And also I don’t want to type an essay about it, I did that already in the pre-feedback thread.
As a Chess player I have to agree with using Median-Buchholz if we use Swiss.
I’m not sure if Swiss is my preferred tournament style; but it’ll be interesting at least and I don’t know of any reasons why it would be any worse than Round Robin.
