Sweet, this Bo7 with ace match format definitely favors KHAN over everyone else, although SKT certainly comes close in terms of depth. I have a hard time seeing KT fielding 6 or even 5 players strong enough to take down Stork, Jangbi, Brave, Grape, Turn, Shine, Roro, and Reality.

yeah, basically. cj has to beat ace, or they are out and stars are in.
what happens in the playoff then?
1 vs 4, 2 vs 3?


3vs4, winner vs 2, winner vs 1


so:

---- Quarters ------- Semis --- Finals
[[KT vs CJ/Stars] vs Khan] vs SKT

where CJ/Stars to be decided in the CJ vs Ace game.


amiright?

also thanks hero.sp


Yeah, and thanks for summarizing it. Added to the OP.

Jangbi's like the nicest person on Khan. Actually, any buddy of MBC players is a good guy in my book.

Jangbi is good, but I think Stork is still the best Protoss.
Look at his match against Zero today. The longer the game goes, the better he plays.
Such an experienced player.

It still favours the teams with the strongest aces (KT/SKT1). You really only need 2 or 3 strong players and some well planned all-ins from the scrubs for an extra win or two. KT just needs flash + 2 wins from stats/ch/hoejja/action/perfective then it's all over despite your depth. Flash, Stats and CH in current form make it at least going to ace pretty likely. CJ have effort/leta/hydra/snow/horang2 which Samsung is also unlikely to get through easily. Depth will get samsung to ace matches but you're still relying on stork beating hydra/effort/flash/fantasy, all of whom are favoured against him.

Maybe "favors KHAN over everyone else" is a bit exaggerated, but it's definitely better for KHAN than Bo5 and worse for most other teams. That's what I was really trying to say and I may have gotten overblown KHAN's chances.

I wouldn't exactly call Action (3-6), Hoejja (2-5), or Mind (2-7!) particularly reliable, although by the same vein I guess Grape (1-5) and Roro (4-7) should probably be eliminated from my list.

Depth means that KHAN can win before it goes to an ace match. Hoejja & Action are unimpressive this season, and Stats is hardly a guaranteed win either. I would favor Turn or Shine over Hoejja, and almost any KHAN 2nd-string player over Action. It all comes down to matchups. If either CH or Stats drop a game, then KT's chances of taking it to game 7 drop significantly; Stats has been looking particularly vulnerable of late.

Also, Effort and Hydra are 3-5 and 1-2 in ZvP this season, whereas Stork is 5-1 PvZ...

Out of the 12 Bo7s that were played in the last playoffs, only 3 went to a 7th set.

wow, never thought of it like that.

granted, i only starting thinking about the depth thing yesterday night, but you're absolutely right.
with the ace system, you don't really need to be 7 (or 8 in our case) deep in a Bo7.
edit: any yea, of course, depends on the matchups.

all the better imo, i much rather cheer on for KHAN as underdogs.
with that mentality, it's always more fulfilling, should they win. and if not, we were expected to lose.

regardless, can't wait for the playoffs!
go KHAN!
go KHAN! TBLS <3
