What happens if Hyuk wins? ASSUMING HYUK WINS; the standings will be: Hyuk: 3 - 0 Everyone else 1 - 2 And every player left will have lost to each other: + Show Spoiler + Jaedong > Modesty Modesty > hyvaa hyvaa > Jaedong So what do they do then? I can't see an obvious tiebreaker that doesn't involve another set of games. Or is there a losers bracket round or something? | ||

He chased JD's lings past the sunken after winning the ling battle near the extractor, unnecessarily losing a bunch in the process. As a result, he had to retreat and give up on the extractor until reinforcements arrived from his base. If that had been a round of drones instead of lings, he wouldn't have been able to kill the extractor at all, but then again he may have overextended with the knowledge that reinforcements were coming and that he would get the extractor in the end anyway. | ||

It's a tiebreaker with 3 people. they play a round robin essentially (3 games), and if someone wins both his games, he advances. If everyone ends up 1-1, they play again. And again. | ||

The chance of Hyuking is always 100% with 50/50 ratio of doing it to himself or his opponent. | ||

Either that or  Canata vs. Shine[Name]The VOD may not remain, but the LR thread details the great suffering that took place that day: On April 16 2009 16:22 Orbifold wrote: Shine maneuvers his battle cruisers, then gets married and has a child before cleaning the dust off his keyboard. Canata finishes a best selling novel, and is now about half way though its sequel. Then he EMPs something. On April 16 2009 16:30 Orbifold wrote: Canata gets off a good EMP before pulling back, western civilization collapses. Season after season passes and within 5 generations mankind has reverted to a simple hunter gatherer life style. The game continues and the local tribes begin a religion in which the battle booths are gods. | ||
