If you are a good player and get put in a bad spot randomly that is not what most people consider fair in a tournament that is meant to determine the best player. This is why most well-ran tournaments in all sports work with good formats and seeds for the top-teams. | ||

Oh well, I guess this is better than single elimination brackets. too many games will be played and that puts off organisers, but i guess this format will spice up the 2nd day of tournament. I think they are thinking whatever format is put up korean will win it. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + DT Drop Also results of White-Ra vs Terror  Terror < Destination >   White-RaTerror < Heartbreak Ridge > White-RaSo I guess tomorrow will be 3rd/4th place between White-Ra and IdrA, and the final will be Stork vs Terror. Stork should take it easily, apparently Terror's achilles is his ZvP. | ||

This is why most well-ran tournaments in all sports work with good formats and seeds for the top-teams. wouldn't it be better to put everyone on equal footing to determine the best player? it seems to me like it is eliminating external factors that might skew the results | ||
