Playing this many matches really gives an edge to SKT1 and Lecaf, given that they get weeks to rest for it and stuff. | ||

I'll be amazed if some fans in the audience don't doze off in the Bo7s | ||

Since all HITE players are in the same side of the bracket and guarenteed an OSL finalist, maybe the coaches will just make them practice exclusively for PL instead lol. | ||

I think Hite and Khan have the best chances to win in the long run too, but fortunately they are going to get kicked out by CJ and STX before the heavy SL schedules (bo5s) start. :p | ||

but in the end it'll probably be calm beating whoever khan sends out. | ||

This format really punishes oz though. Will Hwaesung actually make Jaedong practice for 5 proleague matches? Maybe they will field Hiya in the first bo7 ace match but this looks like hell. | ||

What he actually said was: On July 13 2009 22:02 GTR wrote: So basically, each playoff will consist of two games for each of the teams, one on each channel, Bo7, normal format. If set scores are tied, a single ace match will decide who advances to the next round. Think about it; to count up each game you'd have to play all 6 matches regardless. Otherwise it's unfair because some players wouldn't get to play. But if you play all 6 games... it's not a Bo7. Also if you're counting all the games anyway... what's the point in the decider on the first day? When you think about... what you suggested doesn't make any sense at all. | ||

 SKT1 and CJ are worthy opponents, but Samsung just doesn't have the depth to be a top contender in this format. | ||

Got the first one done STX SouL vs Samsung KHAN Set 1: Heartbreak Ridge July vs JangBiGet the momentum going in their respective team's direction with a strong player. Set 2: Neo Medusa hero vs greatI thought of great first and matched him with hero for an even battle.Set 3: Shades of Twilight Shuttle vs firebathero firebathero looking for TvT but finds a nice protoss present waiting for him.Set 4: Neo Harmony Notice vs oDinTeam needs to fill a spot so here they are. Set 5: Outsider Hwasin vs StorkPretty balanced contenders here. Possibly game of the night Set 6: Destination Kal vs FrOzeanDestination usually yields one of the teams strongest players so KHAN will send out a lamb to cheese. Closer: Andromeda Calm vs firebathero - I think Calm can take down either of the KHAN protoss on this map so either great or firebathero would come out. I'm thinking they would prefer a veteran so FBH it is. | ||
