How does Pick'em rankings work??? In group B GAM and IMT tied at 2W5L each, but GAM is ranked higher than IMT. I Put IMT over GAM and I didn't get points for it. Why is that? It seems weird and i just want to know how it works?

Congrats to those that got it all right BTW [sg-kiko]

GAM got the higher seed due to shorter win times.

Really? That's dumb as hell.

Well, it's either that or force the bottom two seeds to play a meaningless tiebreaker for the sake of pick-ems rankings.

Or maybe in case of 3-4 place to have tie to allow points from either way... [cass-cry]

So what were they supposed to do? Play game for 3rd place? Those players were there for more than 8 hours. What would be point of making them play match that means nothing?

GAM was over IMT because when a tie happens it goes off of Fastest Win Times in the games they Won. GAM was faster in their wins. There is NEVER a tie at worlds.
