| i understand that an unseeded club in CL2 would take the coefficient of their opponent e.g. Dinamo Kiev could lose. But does the other team revert back to their own coefficient if they progress to the league stage? |

| of course they do, as for the draw of the league all teams are known, so every team is seeded on its own coefficient
the taking of the seeded teams coeffeicient just occurs cause the draw for qr3 is made during qr2, thus the winner is not known, would be crazy to repeat the draw only cause an unseeded team wins at this stage |

| A team doesn't really take anybody elses coefficient. UEFA just assumes for the draw that the seeded teams in the round before progress, so they use their coefficient in the draw.
So far I don't think it happened before that any of these teams were indeed eliminated. Now Celtic is almost sure and also Dynamo Kyiv will have a hard time getting through. So Artmedia and Thun will have a extra bonus for eliminating them by playing an unseeded teams in QR3. |

| No, it has not happened before. Seeded teams in QR2 has been eliminated in previous years, but no those that were also seeded in QR3. |

| Forza, 1. You can call it like you want but the bottom line is that the unseeded team take their opponent coefficient beacuse they cannot be paired with the seeded teams in the next round. 2. If I remember correctly last year in CLQ Dynamo even lost their first match at home and still qualified so they are definitely not out. 3. It would be even bigger bonus for potential opponents of Artmedia and/or Thun. |

Yes, you can call it that way, but it confuses people, because they think that the team carries that coefficient during the rest of the tournament. So you can better call it that the unseeded team (that beats the seeded) takes the place of the seeded team in the draw. |
