116 was the second seed captan and 2415 was the first pick.

2415 was previously qualified, so their wildcard passes on (I think). 116 was not previously qualified, so their wildcard does not pass on. Wildcards are only given for teams that were previously qualified, not if a team double qualifies at a regional.
