State of the Tournament
Notes:
DNQ = Do Not Qualify
"OR" is inclusive, meaning if both factors happen then it will return true.

Mid Metangs

The Metangs are guaranteed in with 9 points. Only two teams (Dusknoirs and Starlies) can pass them, which is relevant for playoff seeding but not playoff placement.

Dave's Dusknoirs

The Dusknoirs have 8 points and on top of that a very strong differential of 6. However, a disastrous week against the Metangs could land them in hot water.
Win - Qualify.
Tie - Qualify.
Lose by 3 or less - Qualify. ( are playing each other, so both cannot pass them)
Lose by 4 or more - Qualify, if don't beat , AND

don't win with 5+ more wins. If is 5-3 specifically: Tiebreak with both if lose by exactly 4, otherwise DNQ. If win by more, have more leeway, as they can afford to lose more and still have at minimum tiebreak against

Stamford Starlies

The Starlies are going into the final week strong, coming off a win on the Dusknoirs. However, their pairing against the Espurrs puts them into a somewhat vulnerable position.
Win - Qualify.
Tie - Qualify.
Lose by 1 - Qualify, as they would get in over .
Lose by 2 or more - They need

to not get 4+ more wins than them, OR to lose worse than them. If either of these happen: Qualify, potentially tiebreaking with if the series is 3-5, and with if they lose by exactly 1 more (assuming

win with 4+ more wins). If neither happen: DNQ.

Earnest Espurrs

Espurrs are currently holding onto the least secure playoff spot, though their differential does give them a buffer over the teams below them.
Win by more than 2 - Qualify, as they always get in over .
Win by 2 - Qualify unless

pass them with 2+ more wins AND don't lose worse than 2-6. In that case, tiebreak with and potentially also .
Tie -

can pass them with a win, or can tiebreak them with a 6-2 win or pass them with more than that. If neither of these happen: Qualify. Otherwise, DNQ or tiebreak.
Lose by 2 - They need

to lose and to tie or lose. If

both lose: Qualify. If tie: Tiebreak with . Otherwise: DNQ.
Lose by 3 or more - See above, except DNQ if tie or if

have 2+ wins.

Terrifying Tanukiefs

The Tanukiefs are in an unenviable position as far as differential goes, but their score of 6 points makes them a potent wild card. If they can get a win and amend their differential, they have a great chance of qualifying. Otherwise, they have to hope that they can get in over the Espurrs. An interesting thing to note is that the Tanukiefs' odd differential makes them basically immune to tiebreaks. They either get in or they don't.
Win by 5 or more - Qualify, as they will get in over one of .
Win by 4 - Can qualify over if they lose by 3 or more, or over one of if that series isn't specifically 5-3. Otherwise, DNQ.
Win by 2 - See above, except they would need to lose by 4+, and to lose, tie, or win by 6+.
Tie - They need to lose 2-6 or worse, and to not win. If both of these happen: Qualify. Otherwise, DNQ.
Lose - They need to lose with 2+ less wins, and to lose. If both of these happen: Qualify. Otherwise, DNQ.

Gallade Gladiators

The Gallades are living on the fringes, hoping to snag the 4th-place spot from the Espurrs and Tanukiefs. They have no guaranteed qualify condition--they must hope for other series' results to go their way.
Win by 5 or more - Qualify if

both lose or tie. Otherwise, DNQ.
Win by 4 - See above, except tiebreak with if they tie.
Win by 3 or less - See above, except need to specifically lose.
Tie - They need

to both lose. Tiebreak with if they lose 3-5. Otherwise, DNQ.
Lose - DNQ.

Workers' Union of Gourgsokyo

Unfortunately, the Gourgs are eliminated as they can't reach the 6-point minimum playoff threshold.

Slugmas Slugmas Slugmas

Similarly, the Slugmas are unable to reach 6 points, and thus they're eliminated as well.
