Fox survives Friday. But any one win by each of Dignitas, C9 and NV (all three) or any loss by Fox and the 6 playoff teams are set.

One more win by Immortals guarantees them no worse than third. Two more wins by Immortals guarantees them no worse than second.

Although they're "officially" eliminated, I'm probably still going to watch them due to how entertaining they should be (or more accurately, that I'm the kind of person who finds vehicle crashes fascinating). Assuming they start mickey and matt, they could theoretically have a team in which 3 of their 5 players can either start the game 6-0 and hard carry or go 0-6 and make you think they are just now figuring out what a mouse does.

Also another fun fact: flyquest faces TL and P1 next saturday/sunday respectively which could very easily shape the promotion tournament picture, as P1 is 2 games back of FQ right now while TL is a half game back of FQ for 8th.

Adding to it. Last night's results also benefit FLY's potential to get into the Gauntlet. As long as they stay ahead of the two teams below (effectively relegating P1) and either NV or IMT fall out of playoffs in Quarters, FLY gets in on the first round.
