Expanded Playoffs

FakeNewsJnr · 10-29-2021, 07:41 PM

Bob Costas has shared a great idea for expanded playoffs, and I'm wondering if it can be done in the custom playoffs engine. (SL1, D3, T5, T5, T5)

3 division winners and 4 wild cards. The 4 wildcards play each other by seeding in 1 game playoffs, (4 v 7, 5 v 6, then w1 v w2). The winner of this mini-tournament becomes the 4th participant in the standard DS, against the top seeded division winner. Is it possible to add in these extra rounds with Division Winner byes into the game? I've had no luck so far.

Cheers

There is no way to insert the extra round.

Shame. Definitely one I hope gets added in 23.
