“-” means there is no such number: for a clinch, the club can't clinch on its own (it needs other results); for an elimination, losing every remaining game still wouldn't settle it.
After all games on Aug 29 (Korea time)
Standings entering Aug 29, Korea time (results through the previous day), plus the 2 games finished on Aug 29. Clinches and eliminations that took more than one of those results show up only here.

In races with more than 8 games left, countdown changes that stay far off (a clinch needing more than two-thirds of the points left, or an elimination more than half the games left away) are left out of this list. Clinches and eliminations are always listed, and both clubs' numbers are all in the two-club table.
