Sorry if I've just managed to miss something but the I just got done with the lightning round. Frankyknight showed up in my que with 530 points and when I went to check the leaderboard he was nowhere in sight. Any ideas if they decided to bracket and not tell us?

    Cmiiw but as fas I know the people we fight is not the same with the people in the bracket.
    The people we fight are based on MMR, while the people in the bracket are based on entry time.
    (Aside from sharding)
  • lightning rounds used to be a single bracket. but i do think they are bracketed now because i noticed the same thing as you.

    That's certainly a full bracket! icon_e_wink.gif
  • With that said, think one could make a Top 25 cut easily if one enters in with like 15 minutes left? Assuming you open up the event early to get a couple of seed teams into your queue for quick points.

    There's only two brackets, three at most. So top 25 in 15 mins? Unless you're cheating no chance icon_e_wink.gif

    There aren't a lot of brackets, so you might get slotted to an old bracket in that case.
