What happens in a tie?

If two teams go 3-3 or 4-2. What determines which one of them is placed higher than the other? So far I've heard that the one with the most wins against the other wins, but what if they are 1-1 vs eachother? Will there be an extra match to break the tie? What if 3 teams tie (for example 4-2)?

i have no idea if there are 3 teams that have same score. I would assume each has to play a game with one another. KT vs CLG CLG vs Pain Pain vs KT

It would give one team more wins than another. BUt that's just a guess. I dont think it ever happened at worlds. I doubt it will either way

This is explainable using the current setup with the Flash Wolves and Koo Tigers. They're both 4-2. However, in their two games against each other, Flash Wolves won both matches; therefore, Flash Wolves have the higher placement; and thus, the first seed.

If the teams are actually tied, there will be an extra match added, and the winner of that gets the higher placement.

If three teams were to tie, they would play a trio of games with one another - and if one team wins both games, they get the priority. If not... I think they have to loop again and again and again. I don't know if there's a limiter on that, but that's what was mentioned in the past.

If four teams were to tie (all of them go 3-3)... well, then, hell if I know.
