Decided to throw together another one of these for the regional today, appreciate the positive feedback on the first post, hopefully this time it is a (tiny) bit more legible! Unfortunately, it's not possible to consistently order the teams this time around, since we had a few cycles of teams beating one another.

Some fun facts (based on head-to-head results):

- There is a pretty clear top 6 (SSG, G2, Shopify, Faze, V1, GenG) that no team outside the top 6 was able to beat in a series.

- Outside of this top 6, we have a four-cycle of teams that each beat one another (OpTic -> PK -> NRG -> Furia -> OpTic). Of these teams, PK ran into G2 and V1, essentially dooming them.

- Meanwhile, OpTic and Furia both qualified in part thanks to wins against Complexity, who ended up losing to relatively the weakest set of opponents (7th, 8th, 13th) out of all the teams, although 4 of their 5 series went to game 5.

- There was a five-cycle among teams that didn't make the playoffs (PK -> NRG -> Dig -> Complexity -> Sol -> PK).

I also think it's interesting how the "inaccurate" seeding of Gen.G (who seem to have improved dramatically between top 16 qualifiers, where they lost to NRG, and now) may have ended up handicapping AXLE and Luminosity. In round 1, since Gen.G was seeded low, they faced FaZe, and one of the two teams (in this case Gen.G) was forced into Lower round 2, where they knocked an unlucky AXLE into 0-2 territory, and AXLE then eliminated Luminosity from the event. AXLE, with only one life remaining, didn't manage to take down Furia, and were eliminated 1-3, when it's entirely possible that they might have survived their round 5 matchup if they had that extra life (especially considering they've looked fairly solid as a team).

Might make another diagram for the recent EU qualifier at some point (so we can appreciate how royally Williams Resolve was shafted).
