>>10795285Short Answer: this tournament is rigged against Hololive teams
Long Answer: A combination of bad luck and bad tactics. For example /morig/, a team managed by a full time 4cc manager lost two close matches by one goal. For our own /hlgg/, the formation they got stuck with was exploited by the group they were in. I tested some matches against other teams for manager, and the formation held up slightly better than what was shown in official games. Had manager-san used a better formation with better defense, the great offense could have put them in a good spot.
The rest of the Holo teams were either managed by first-time managers or were auto-pilots that had formations that could not hold up in their groups.
