As always, making a topic about SCTFL playoffs here in general.

After 5 weeks of intense playing and a massive total of 2300 clan wars, 20 clans made it to the playoffs. The bottom 8 will take part in a preliminary round to determine the opponents for top 4 and the rest of the positions were randomized. Here's the bracket:

Freeplay stats

PLAYED MATCHES:
PaK~ vs T-F
war| vs |FF|
\\F.O.S.T// Hard vs Wasted!
[NMS] vs [DC]
=UN= vs {EF}
AE/ vs #tba.
Mr. vs R7.
Seals| vs \\F.O.S.T// Hard
In ~ vs R7.
(SN) vs <?)))<
#Dalton vs [DC]
Ox* vs PaK~
Ox* vs war|
=UN= vs #Dalton

UNPLAYED ROUND 2 MATCHES:
(SN) vs R7.
Seals| vs #tba.

Feel free to post your predictions and anything else here, and hopefully we'll see even more new clans in next SCTFL!

hehe, FOST sure was a surprise.

our NA clans got a tight challenge on the left and right bracket. Hopefully a NA clan can make it to the finals this season. But the bracket this season looks pretty cool =D

=UN= all the way baby. I hope we get there.

xmRipper · « **Reply #4 on:** June 10, 2008, 09:36:52 am »

gL #Dalton

Rai-Dei · « **Reply #5 on:** June 10, 2008, 09:37:56 am »

I'm hoping an NA, whether it be war, R7, Mr, or Dc.

FOST? Whoa.

Ziem · « **Reply #7 on:** June 10, 2008, 11:10:42 am »

In ~ vs Mr. / R7. => R7 vs In ~ => In ~
(SN) vs <?)))< => (SN)
=UN= vs {EF} => {EF} (I hope that Sneaky will play...)
#Dalton vs [NMS] vs [DC] => #Dalton vs [NMS] => #Dalton
Seals| vs \\F.O.S.T// Hard => Seals| (I am suprised that FOST won against Wasted!, but imo they won't win with Seals :d)
AE/ vs #tba. => AE/
Ox* vs PaK~ => Ox*
----------------------------
In ~ vs (SN) => In ~
#Dalton vs {EF} => {EF}
Ox* vs war| => Ox* (not really sure after war| vs |FF| match ;s)
AE/ vs Seals| => AE/
----------------------------
In ~ vs {EF} => Depends in which lineup {EF} will play

... Probably In ~ will win
Ox* vs AE/ => AE/
----------------------------
In ~ vs AE/ => In ~

(Let's see how inaccurate my tippings are xD)

Ziem, I think Ae vs In~ at the End or NMS as Im hopping

Also does each team like for example NMS vs DC if NMS wins that match, is DC out right away? or do they still have
a chance. Like in Hockey best out of 7. How is it here?

Thanks, hope to get answered!

Good Luck DragonSlayer in Playoffs.

-Major- · « **Reply #10 on:** June 11, 2008, 02:19:53 am »

hmm.. I think dalton might win against EF...

Poop · « **Reply #11 on:** June 11, 2008, 04:32:17 am »

Compared with last season, this season the amount of parity in the league and playoffs is MUCH MUCH greater. The standard deviation of win percentages in the playoffs last season was 11.75%, which means each clan was about 11.75% higher or lower on average from the mean winning percentage of all playoff clans. This season the standard deviation of playoff clans is about 9.13%.

This is for the most part consistent with what most people have noticed this season is freeplay. Last season everyone was essentially certain that the final match would be Invictus vs EF with like a small chance of it being UN vs EF. This season while Invictus might be favorites to reach the final, everything is essentially in the air. I believe there are 6 clans in the left side of the bracket that can beat eachother, while there are around 2 or 3 on the right side that can beat eachother.

My personal prediction as to the final when taking my own clan out will be UN vs Seals. Course the chance of that happening is pretty low since as I already mentioned, the left side of the bracket especially is pretty much up in the air right now.

tehsnipah · « **Reply #16 on:** June 11, 2008, 03:53:15 pm »

WHAT THE HELL, FOST?

DragonSlayer · « **Reply #17 on:** June 11, 2008, 05:01:37 pm »

[NMS] vs [DC]

[DC] won so that's one more NA clan in the top 16. Good luck to them in next round.

Sir Jeremy · « **Reply #18 on:** June 11, 2008, 05:02:37 pm »

What! NSM just lost to DC??

Awwww

My Condolences to NMS, Maybe next year

I was hoping for them to win, nice players. Good Luck to all the other teams out there. I guess im rooting for AE now.

Predictions:

In ~ no doubt will reach Final 4.
{EF} defeats =UN= and #Dalton. - Final 4.
Seals defeats FOST and #tba. - Final 4.
war| defeats PaK~ - Final 4

Then it's the ultimate showdown between Seals| and {EF}....

{EF} wins the SCTFL12 !!!

*anxiously waits for awesome demos* <3
