The Swiss system has always had its fair share of flaws. Swiss system sees a sort of unfair advantage to underdogs and provide them with the potential of causing lots of upsets. With BIG upsetting Faze Clan, we will be seeing a C9 vs North match-up, a matchup that no one expected so early into the tournament. Every loss and win counts, and hence this match can form the make or break for either team.
It definitely reduces their chance of making it into the playoffs by 33%.
C9 get North and BIG to potentially be 2:0? Reasonable system
