mong got a bit lucky in those games although his macro was on point. Dweb really was amazing to see, ballsy reaction to the ghosts. ASL is giving us a ton of great games.

It's cool these guys are still using these unorthodox strats even though money is on the line. Shows you it is worth it.

Why are these games still played in best of 1 format? can they not afford to broadcast best of 3? Best of 1 barely shows the player's talents. I hope changes are brought for the next season.

For ASL 3, the matches were Bo5 after the group stages.

So only 8 players got to play an actual series? That seems like a pretty unfair and wonky system. This is a competition, to determine the best. Best of 1 is crushingly brutal. Were old Starleagues like this?

It is almost exactly like the OSL format, the only change is that the Ro16 groups are also decided with the dual tournament format.

Ffs stop complaining about bo1. It allows for build order preparations and upsets. Thats what makes groups so exciting.

How is the round of 16 brackets chosen? Is it based on groups A to F? Or they have a ceremony where they pull names out of a
Hat?

I'm suspicious. All ASL games have been too good this season. Much, much too entertaining. Hmm. Could it be staged? Is this the future of esports? It's all a show! Not real. Like WWE. This is why Tastosis brought it up in the beginning of the cast. They're trying to tell us.

Really good games all around. Also, people need to stop underrating Mong. Sure, his game can be sloppy at times and maybe he hasn't been in form recently but this is still the same guy who took third place towards the end of the Sonic era and made the top 8 just last ASL. I think he is a Top 5 terran atm.

I knew mong would get out of the group, hes perennially under valued. I thought he'd reach the semis at the start of the last ASL, before shine stomped on him. I still think he could make it deep, depending on how the brackets go.

Are you talking about that one ad with flash and other streamers? They are just saying what haters are saying to them on stream in the chat, bad stuff.

It's definitely great for us, the viewers. It adds a lot of drama.

But you have to feel for BeSt when he's eliminated by a lucky probe. There's money on the line here, not to mention the hours of training and sacrifice.

Not underrating Mong here, but his record on September has been abysmal while Best and Rain are both in top ten (ELO rating) He had no right to mess with me liquibet! T_T (also i would say Flash/Last/Ssuck/Light/Mind for top5, but that's just me)

I don't think it's fair to think of the group stage as a Bo1, it's a Bo3 against different opponents. He didn't only lose because of a scouting thing (not to mention he got massively outmacroed that game, and could have most likely held), but he also lost to Mong.

The only time it's a little bit unfortunate is when in one group you have one amazing player, one bad player, and two medium players, and then it becomes sort of a Bo1 in the last game. For most part though, it's just a Bo3, and I think it's the best group format for BW.

The thing is bo3 format will go at least for 4-5 hours. I'm not even going to imagine if there are 3 or 4 terrans in same group and how long 3-4 TvT matchups gonna take. I'm not against it though, these guys are playing like 10 hours every day. But then you need to make bo7 semi's and finals which makes comebacks, reverse sweeps almost impossible.
