wait so... Pools C1-C3 and D1-D4 are not getting streamed at all? and H1-H3 is also not getting streamed?

So we are only getting B1-B3, Auction, G1-G3, top31-Finals.

That means we are only seeing 2 of the pools?
 
And the winner gets the last spot in esl right?
what happens if someone who is already qualified totally unexpected wins combo breaker? will esl rank seven get the place or Combo breaker rank 2? and what if the CB top 4 are already qualified for esl, will the 5th placers battle it out?

The highest placing player at Combo Breaker who hasn't already qualified for ESL will take the spot.

This tourney is stacked enough that I can't see the top 4 ALL being people that have already qualified though :p

1. If the winner of Combo Breaker has already qualified for the MKX Pro League Season 3 Finals, then the second place player will be awarded the Combo Breaker seed for the MKX Pro League Season 3 Finals. This will continue through the Top 8 placements until a nonqualified player can be awarded the seed.

2. If two eligible players in the Top 8 (Example: 5th and 7th place) of the Combo Breaker tournament are tied for earning the Pro League Finals seed, then those players will play a Best of 5 to determine the recipient of the MKX Pro League Season 3 Finals seed.

3. If each player in the Top 8 of Combo Breaker is either qualified by points for the MKX Pro League Season 3 Finals or is ineligible to acquire the seed, then the seed will be awarded to the 7th place points earner in the ESL MKX Pro League

Man of Tomorrow
That's pretty cool. Now I'm kinda curious what the rules are and how the auction works.
Every character is written down on a piece of paper and put into a hat, then the name is pulled and read aloud. The audience then bids on the character in one dollar increments until someone wins, say, Scorpion at 24 dollars. It continues until all 8/16 places in the bracket are filled. Variations are done by rolling dice so you may have to play inferno one set and then Ninjutsu the next. It's single elimination and the size of the pot is the total pooled together money spent on characters.

Considering we are getting a lot of top 32 and top 16 streamed its fine that we miss a lot of shit pool matches. And we get top 8 prime time right before sf5.
