why is it a stupid system?
It's 1 match less for viewers but eliminates every possibility of awkward 3-way ties in which weaker teams might advance over better teams!

i don't like new system mainly because of this situation, for example:
x6tence wins vs Karont3, losses vs NaVi
Karont3 losses vs x6tence, wins vs Miticos
and they meet again where Karont3 wins vs x6tence
So Karont3 ends up with 2 victories & 1 loss and goes to playoffs. But the problem is that Karont3 played vs lower seeded team than x6tence did. And this is how Karont3 ends up going to playoffs without playing number 1 seeded team in their group (in this case NaVi).

after x6-NaVi game I thought that x6 should be the team to advance, but Karont3 proved me wrong, still don't know if this group system is OK, cuz Karont3 lost 1st game and got second chance in the second game, so dunno...still gj both teams!

I'm not gonna be the judge of that...just saying like in old group stage sytem u only had 1 chance against every single team and if u lose - u lose to them, it's over, but this feels more like, they lost, and they got second chance to play them again and managed to won...I'm not a fanboy of any team...just seems a lil bit wierd
