What is seeding?
Seeding is based on your team's estimated strength. Wherever possible we considered results from earlier tournaments. In this case Swiss Lol Series #2 and the Offline Lan Tournament from Eevent were considered. In every other case your strength is estimated on an average of your ranked team rating (if available) and your individual ratings. Obviously this isn't very accurate and is just an estimation.
What does that mean for me?
Seeding determines where your Team will be placed in the tournament bracket. Team 1 will face Team 32, Team 2 will face Team 31 and so on.
That sounds very unfair!
It isn't. Because it is a double elimination tournament, if you lose your first round, you will face teams in the loser bracket that are much closer to your skill level. Seeding ensures that the best teams of the tournament will most likely face each other in the finals.
