So to qualify for IEM Katowice Furia will have had to beat Permitta who i've never even heard of and then IHC who are like tier 500 and this is after they lost a BO3 to BIG on LAN! That in itself should have been an immediate elimination but no give them another chance against more no namers.

You don't lose points from losing in shitcups, you can only gain points. At least that's how the hltv ranking works, not sure about the ESL one. Regardless, it was the only chance for Astralis to qualify since not doing anything wouldn't have been enough either.
And that's what Astralis tried to do, they played these CCT tournaments in late 2022 but they fumbled some games there and it ended up not quite being enough.
Their roster moves cost them a lot of points as well sadly, which is unfortunate. They were basically running at 60% of their potential points

I did not know that. If you loose a game against random tier 3 team that doesn't cost you any points?
Also yeah i watched a couple of the games including when they lost to CPH Flames. But it didn't even matter. Even if they won both CCT i believe PAIN would still have qualified because they won a CCT and got 2nd in cash cup
Also yeah obviously stupid system.

Not on hltv anyways, the team you lose to will gain points so you might lose in the direct comparison, but compared to everyone else, losing does not lose points.
That's why EG was inflated in the ranking for so long despite them bombing out last place every tournament(they didn't even play those NA cash cups at the time), just the participation alone gained them points on hltv and then occasionally winning a map gives points even if you lose the series.
Dunno about that last point, they made it a big deal after Astralis lost in these CCT's that now they missed the slot so I think it would've been open for them had they won, but I don't know for sure.
esl ranking
The Esl ranking, probablu. Also Furia is better ranked even on hltv

Yeah, as you said "Same for furia". Both teams rankings are already been damaged because of the lack of matches, so it evens out beetween the two.
who cares, it is a play-in stage. You are not meant to play g2 and vitality in there
and? there is always at least one team with bracket like that
if they win they deserve it i mean, it is what it is, now aside of that am i the only who prefer the format where the teams with 3 victories pass, because like that would be more fair no? teams 0-2 playing agaist teams 0-2 and games like furia ihc wouldt happen, and that would be better for teams that come from asia or oceania

idc, because ihc wins these :)))
They smashed BIG few months ago, first game after playerbreak against a team who played well in BLAST ...
IHC is tier3 or tier2,5, they are not that bad
IHC is team that has been so fking consistent last year I mean they attend both majors last year and also they are gonna attend many LAN events this year like PR LEAGUE or IEM BRAZIL so I would not call them nonamers.
