Methodology

How we separate reality from what-if

What If Match starts with confirmed match information, then clearly separates tournament rules, projections, and alternate-universe storytelling.

Confirmed results

Scores, match status, and major events come from trusted match sources or reviewed corrections.

Tournament rules

Tables, points, and advancement paths follow the competition rules before any what-if is shown.

Projections

Probabilities and possible opponents are shown as estimates, not guaranteed outcomes.

What-if stories

Alternate timelines are generated after a clear user choice and stay separate from real history.
