Confirmation of Top 8 from Day 1:

1: TJ SamuelJ = 12 match points (owmp=58.67)
2: BP Vince1992 = 12 match points (owmp=53.33)
3: KA stonecold = 11 match points (owmp=65.33)
4: Sir Tazwiz = 11 match points (owmp=64.00)
5: A1 busti = 11 match points (owmp=61.33)
6: BP Killerheart = 11 match points (owmp=60.00)
7: 17 paxvobiscum = 10 match points (owmp=61.33)
8: BP Kelala = 10 match points (owmp=44.00)

owmp = Opponent's Match-Win Percentage

Unless someone no-shows, we now know who will be playing who due to seeding:

TJ SamuelJ (Zaladar) vs BP Kelala (Amber)
BP Vince1992 (Moonstalker) vs 17 Paxvobiscum (Tala)
KA stonecold (Baduruu) vs BP Killerheart (Garth)
Sir Tazwiz (Praxix) vs A1 busti (Baduruu)

So that's 2 Elementals, 2 Shadow Hunters, 1 Rogue, 2 Human Warriors, 1 Wulven in the Grand Finals Day 2. No Mages and no Victor in sight!

I'll calculate tie-breakers for 9th place now in case we need a reserve, which would shuffle all the seeds up and change some/all of the pairings....

Congradulations to each of the top eight. You fought through multiple days of hard games to get here. Good luck to each of you.

P.S. Special extra luck to the three BP players.
