3 way tie for 2nd WC, with 2 of the teams also tying for division lead. Assumption is the division tiebreak between those 2 teams happens first, then the division “loser” tiebreaks v the 3rd team. Anyone know if this is correct? (I’m the 3rd team and lose out based on division record in this scenario.)

A tiebreaker system is used if two or more teams tie for a playoff berth. Head-to-head record is used first, then division record, then run differential, then last season's record and finally a coin flip.

Yes, apply that to see who wins the division, then start over and apply again for the wild card.
