Single Elim.

Same situation as last months Masters Cup (International), which served as a NA qualifier, both played then.

If PiG and Mafia did come first and second. The third/fourth placed players would have done more than enough to earn their spot, as it is a very tough event to place highly in at the best of times.

So yes might be a bit unlucky if knocked out early, but there have been other qualifiers, and it wouldn't be fair to restrict them from such a large tournament.
