Captains = top 8 by predicted rank; picks go to the best-available team by EPA+OPR following the event's iri draft order. A pick is predicted to decline only when the selecting captain is clearly weak and the pick would still secure a captaincy with an obviously stronger partner. Playoff results are deterministic (stronger alliance advances); percentages are win probabilities.
