All other games being equal? Then Osaka is 9-7, and Wrath is 8-8, and Osaka gets the #8 seed at 9-7.

*sigh* I knew I put that post together too quickly. Nairobi over Korb and ESL, not Wrath. Oops.

there is no scenario where Osaka misses
these last 2 games are just killing time for the playoffs
The worst we can finish is 7th with the best 5th

8th is not likely
Korb, Nairobi and ESL play each other...I suppose if Nairobi loses both games we can have a 3 way tie at 9-7
all 3 split so it goes to points allowed and Osaka has a 24 point lead in that catagory.

Okay I'm trying to sort out the various Alpha playoff stuff.
If I assume:
Blaze over Semarang, Blaze over Krungthep, MPHD over Smurfs, Lincoln over Krungthep
Then there are 8 games left to determine playoffs and seeding.
MPHD v HHWC
HHWC v Osaka
Lincoln v BDC
Osaka v Wrath
Korb v Nairobi
Korb v Smurfs
ESL v Hali
ESL v Nairobi
If we only look at in/out situations, MPHD v HHWC, Lincoln v BDC, and Osaka v HHWC can be thrown out, too. That leaves 5 games - which is 32 scenarios. I'm not going to enumerate them all, but we can look at who can lock up a spot and who needs help.
Who is in if they win out?
There are two spots left and 3 teams at 7-7. Since some of them play each other, any of Korb/ESL/Nairobi winning out clinches playoffs for them. Any two of them dropping a game opens the door for an 8-8 team to make it.
Hali can give ESL a loss, and Korb v Nairobi gives one of those teams a loss, and then an 8-8 team gets in. Hali has H2H over Korb, and would over ESL in this scenario, but not Nairobi. There's no single game that has to break their way to get in that I can see - even if Nairobi beats Korb, ESL could beat Nairobi and Smurfs could beat Korb for a 3-way tie at 8-8 and points against coming into play. And so forth.
Wrath needs to win out and get help all over. Wrath only holds H2H over ESL. I don't see a simple solution that gets them in without 3-way tiebreakers coming into play.
Smurfs are out assuming the loss the MPHD.
This could even turn into a 5-way tie at 8-8 for 2 playoff spots. Good luck.

*shrug* not too hard really, just pretty much requires a Hali upset of Blaze in the first round. Well, and Hali making playoffs to begin with.
The 8 games we care about go:
MPHD over HHWC
HHWC over Osaka
Lincoln over BDC
Osaka over Wrath
Nairobi over Korb
Nairobi over ESL
Hali over ESL
Smurfs over Korb
Nairobi is 9-7
Hali 8-8
ESL 7-9
Korb 7-9
Wrath 7-9
Smurfs 7-9
Nairobi is 7th, Hali is 8th.
Playoff round 1:
Hali beats Blaze, Lincoln beats BDC.
Playoff round 2: Hali v Lincoln (other side is MPHD/Nairobi vs HHWC/Osaka)
