Cause tourney seeding should be all about how active a player is and not about their skill level. I understand now, thank you for clearing that up!
Besides that he doesn't even have 1 account in the all time top5 1v1 (yes, with cheaters excluded) the same elo chart means jack shit regardless of who you decide to pick as example. You simply can't compare 2011-2012 ratings with those of 2013+ when basically the player base was halved. Just to name a blatant one, Irishfaithful 2800 score isn't in any way comparable to h2o or nagayumi 2800 got back then.
Seeding should be a matter of current playing field in the first place. If someone hasn't played in ages it shouldnt even cross your mind as a potential top seeded player.
