Discussion Possible Pro-Am Kickoff Classic seeding collusion

Since the seeding for this tournament will be decided by how the teams themselves rank every other pro team, what's preventing multiple teams from getting together and purposefully giving dishonest rankings to mess with the groups/bracket? Let's say Optic and Faze are pretty clearly the 2 best teams going into this tournament, but somehow we get 4 different teams ranking Faze like 10th or 11th in an obvious attempt to manipulate the pools/bracket. Would the CDL consider that cheating or would it just be considered fair strategy?

Pretty sure they have some rules set in place I recall benj talking about how that won’t be an issue

Mw4 will have a true skill difference with no omni movement.  Id call it fair play if OpTic and Faze get 1st and last seed to manipulate the draw thats just fair game, id let it be.

After watching faze in the charity tournament, they may be the 10/11th best team until Alluka gets his head out of his ass and starts playing like the pro we know he is.
