i also got pretty shocked when the summary of new life said that there was a time skip and that they were already at the end of the preliminaries, it was like "what? that was it?" and it makes me wonder if Issei's team lost more matches or if he's already in the top 16, and if he is, why would the outcome against team god alliance matter, considering they sound like a pretty potent team, losing against them shouldn't cost that many points (of course they could also be barely making it into the top 16, in which case they better win)
