So can anybody explain more accurately what a dual tournament is? I tried searching for it on the liquipedia but there were no hits.



A v B

C v D

Winner A/B vs Winner C/D (match 3)--> Winner of this qualifies 2-0

Loser A/B vs Loser C/D (match 4) ---> Loser of this is eliminated 0-2

Loser match 3 vs Winner Match 4 ---> Winner of this qualifies 2-1, Loser eliminated 1-2



That way it also guarantees a 1,2,3,4 ranking A v BC v DWinner A/B vs Winner C/D (match 3)--> Winner of this qualifies 2-0Loser A/B vs Loser C/D (match 4) ---> Loser of this is eliminated 0-2Loser match 3 vs Winner Match 4 ---> Winner of this qualifies 2-1, Loser eliminated 1-2That way it also guarantees a 1,2,3,4 ranking
