WCG Online Qualifiers - Fixtures Announced

Posted by Dev at 01:00 7/8/2003.

The WCG online qualifying fixtures are now up and available for you to take a gander at. The tournament, which is being run by Game.Net will provide 8 autoberths to the finals of WCG UK.

The format for the online qualifiers is as follows:

Stage 1 : 10 of the lower seeded clans were randomly chosen for this qualifying round. This round is a straight knockout that will reduce the numbers of clans playing to 32.
Stage 2 : All 32 clans play in this seeded straight knockout round. There is no double elimination due to time constraints.
Group Phase : The 16 clans surviving at this point are placed into 4 seeded groups. The clans will play each team in their group once and the top two teams in each group will qualify for the WCG UK finals.

The Round 1 fixtures look like this:

powerrangers vs. oh my god no
SKiNT! vs. 4K.Ladies
Aggressive.eSports vs. pUnk.clan
eXpressive vs. Envy
#team.identity vs. Hallucagen

The winners of those games will progress into the 32 team single elimination round and the surviving clans from that will enter the group stages.

UKTerrorist will have the coverage for you from the 12th of August when the qualifiers start.

	AndersSchm 08:10 7/8/2003	Seedings were done on the basis of four groups, in a similar manner to the FIFA world cup draw. The best 8 teams form the first seed group, the next best 8 the next seed group, another group of 8 then the remaining 13 clans. The matches were fixtured originally in the manner of group 1 team v group 4 team, group 2 team v group 3 team etc. The teams were then randomly drawn from their seed groups to fill up these fixtures. (random placement provided by use of dice) Seedings were based on, in order of importance, CPL rank, UKT rank, BWCSL rank, CSGN rank, Savage rank, other leagues, other ladders. Finally in cases like b0g and id0t the clans were boosted up the seedings based on the opinion of myself and other advisors. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
