After further review of the playoff system, I find myself questioning team's efforts. I don't understand why anyone would fight to be in 1st or 2nd when someone in 6th place could just as easily win the entire league, defeating almost 6 months of regular season's practicality.
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Well that is inherent to a playoff system ofcourse. While I do prefer a system in which the 1st at the end of a season is the winner based on the fact that they have shown the best average performance, the playoff system does add in extra suspense to the end of the season with all or nothing matches. And since this is a playoff format we can only hope the suspense proves itself worthy after such a long season! But I never really understood the american preference towards playoffs though tbh :p

It is kind of true, perhaps I should have just invested less into the season and gone for longer playoffs because its a style that I like much to what Mango pointed out. It's really hard for me to compromise on the playoffs though being as last season, the playoffs were by far the best clan wars of all the Gambit's Cup... So, you could probably see a reduction in the seeding next season and more playoff action... As of yet, I'm unsure about how I want to configure it, but there will be some major format changes.

my opinion - since whole season is very fucking long, 1st place must have more advantage in playoffs.
I think proleague playoff system is fine.

gl today all teams ~_~

I want you to personally message me the stream link, with an explanation of the cast format. While you're at it, with all of your big sponsor monies, I insist that you send me a microwavable bag of popcorn from Canadia. I want to see if they use syrup instead of butter.
