More info I received in my DM:

It’s also important because this Japan nationals is their qualification for WUCC next year. Opens has two bids. Womens has three.

Japan nationals structure is four games, and it’s literally a pre-quarter, quarter, semi, final. So if an opens team loses any game before the final, they can’t get a bid for WUCC. And women’s you have to make semis to have a shot.

The  women’s draw has Mavericks on one side of the draw with some uni teams (some of them are still strong). Then the other main contending clubs (UNO Mud Swampybarg Huck) all on the other side of the draw. This is based on a seeding tournament that happened back in May.

It’s a brutal way to do WUCC bids! No pool play, no cross overs, no second chances!
