It's only 20% more games in the Ro16 for round robin. Maybe they are worried about the 50% chance of a tie breaker, and that tie breakers can potentially last forever. They did it last year, only had 1 tie breaker but it went to 6 games. Could have been worse (Effort's OSL). | ||

Could have been worse (Effort's OSL). It's also pretty weird to go from one dual format to another right away haha. What was the drawing for then? Could've just gone into standard Bo3 brackets. Oh well. Still hoping for great games, and LeeSsang to advance! | ||

This is the official ASL2 website: http://archive.fo/qdrd2 Scroll down and you can see the map (Google maps) to the broadcast location. I have no idea what the street name is in English because it's all in Korean, but if you are there already I bet you can figure it out ![]() | ||

Would it be possible for Afreeca to put in someone who's knowledgable about Brood War to co-cast with Artosis? I have nothing against Rapid, but he seems a bit ill-equipped to cocast this tourney. I'm sure there's a fair number of english speakers who would be better versed in the game. As for Rapid himself, I love the effort and passion he's putting into his casts. That said, I would recommend he stick with more play-by-play and questions rather than trying to analyze. I have a feeling he's been trying to do this and it's tough to stick with that for 5 games. But stuff like, "Looks like player A is moving in with his forces, and here's a big fight, blah blah, it looks like player B has won the engagement. What do you think the game position is now Artosis?"would be great. Actually, I don't mind analyzing at all if he puts it in the form of a question. Something like "So from what I'm getting, it appears that Player A is ahead because of the engagement he won there. Is that enough to push the game in his favour or does Player B still have the edge?" There, you have an opportunity to add in opinion and at the same time, let Artosis chime in and clarify the situation. I think that would be amazing. I totally understand the accommodation for SC2 viewers. I have no problems with that. It's a tad annoying for those familiar with BW but eh, it's manageable. Again, I love the effort and passion. Keep at it. As for the name Eyewater, he clarified why he uses it in the last ASL's champion interview. After hearing why he uses it, I think it's great. | ||
