That's it! In fact, all matches of teams with 0 or 1 losses in the last 2 rounds could well be B3 finals given how hard it is to get there. I love it!

The big plan in my head when I recommended this format last season was that everyone goes into the competition knowing exactly what they need to advance to the knockout round. In this case, all winning records (4-3 or better) advance, regardless of PD. But credit for what we have know should go to the inventor of Buzzerbeater Madness, for showing that this format was possible in the first place.

The one flaw as I see it is that there isn't a bigger reward for being the 7-0 team in the swiss. The alternative however would've been a 29 team bracket where the 7-0 team gets a double bye to the QF, which I think is too much of a reward. At least they do get two rounds against 4-3 teams as you pointed out.

I feel that 1.7M of total salaries is not enough. You'd rather be on the safe side: buy my house, my girlfriend, my dog, and my sweaty socks. Nobody knows what can happen!

Hi man,

Feel free to dm me about the house, girlfriend and socks, sure we can work it out. My dog doesn't get along with other dogs so sadly I can't get it too.

Well, even the strongest squad isn't enough when you leave two open slots and use follow depth chart instead of LCD.

Heartbreaking, but we'll be back next season, with a weaker squad but hopefully a bit less dumb manager.

That's the most accurate and most amusing good-bye speech I've witnessed in BB!

Good luck next season, mate!

Tough loss, mate. The B3 knockout stage is a minefield... You can go home anytime against anyone.

Also, kudos to Kekluhoitaa for guessing the 2 GDPs and taking advantage of your mistake.

Now it's time to dry your tears and find a way to come back strong next season.
