No loser bracket ? 1 of the best team will be eliminated after only 1 match ?

Yeah, but Top 8 already qualified for Contenders Season 1

This is weird because in the official rules section 9.2.4 and 9.2.5 there are different prizes for 5th and 6th place as compared to 7th and 8th

There's still a prize pool of 50k for season 0, so while the top 8 are qualified for season one they still need to compete for that sweet sweet moolah.

Right, but everyone seems to be saying that there's only a single-elim bracket in the playoffs, and those cannot distinguish between the bottom 4 places.

I see what you mean. Perhaps they'll do as #7 mentioned, else I'm not sure how they'd determine that.

There will be a quarter finals losers game for NA to determine 5/6 as there are only 6 spaces left in NA Season 1, so maybe they will do the same for EU?

This should be a good match though with their recent match history I have to give the edge to eUnited.

We've seen that almost nothing can't be flipped on it's head so an upset if most definitely possible, but I'm not convinced we'll get to see one here:

A month ago (pre-TakeOver) I would've instinctively marked Movistar Riders as the favorites due to their PiT and HND wins. However, due to their slightly subpar performance at TakeOver, and with eUnited now fully realizing their potential, I actually believe this will be a stomp. Unless Riders have found a way to incorporate Destro well into the roster, I could see a clean sweep coming out from eUnited. But, because we never know with Europe these days, just to be safe...

eUnited 3-1 Movistar Riders
