Oh yeah I could do ig

The top 2 of the candidates will play 14 games against each other tho in a world championship match

Not really, the tournaments are all underway

The 90+30 just has 1 game left

The 3+0 is on round 2, the 10+0 and 30+0 are both on round 2

The candidates starts when all those tournaments end

What place do I need to finish in the 30+0 to make the candidates?

Avatar of neeleshkartha

I'm not gonna qualify for the candidates 100%. The only chance I have to qualify is in 10+0, but that too probably not.

It depends. Technically it's only the winner who qualifies but it's very likely that the winner will already have qualified through another tournament

I'd guess 3rd place qualifies because me and lightning will qualify through the 3+0 tournament most likely

Avatar of chesssblackbelt

This is assuming me and lightning just win everything ofc. It's also very possible some surprises happen
