E V E R S E S W E E P W E E P Glad it wasn't a 4-0 (3-0?) but the last ZvZ was much more entertaining to watch than this one. | ||

A little confused why it wasnt a Bo7 but we probably didn't miss much. the 3rd place match has always(?) been a bo5. or at least for the last couple of seasons. guess the korean viewers arent interested in the 3rd place match that much | ||

I think Bo5 is a good solution. | ||

Because often times you actually win the 3rd place match (if it's a tournament not a race, for example) but you lose the final.. so 3rd place ends tournament with a win while 2nd place end with a loss. | ||

I think 3rd place match is cool, keep it, but Bo5 is fine. | ||

I want to say it was either a race or one of the sports where you have a score (like high jump, weightlifting, etc.) but the mentality of the 3rd place finisher was "at least I finished on the podium" rather than "I was so close to winning the gold" | ||

I'm a very pragmatic person and to me money is a bigger factor than a title unless the trophy opens doors for me. I'd imagine if for some odd reason 3rd got a trophy but no money while 4th got money but no trophy, then people would likely be happier about placing 4th. Except for people who already have more than enough money. | ||

https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/thoughtful-animal/why-bronze-medalists-are-happier-than-silver-winners/ As with most social psychology, this is pretty straightforward common sense when you think about it. Second place is like "nooooo i was sooo close. If only I didn't screw up that one push/harass/tiny but critical mistake which will haunt me forever...that would have been me kissing the trophy..." Whereas third is like, "meh who cares, it's not the finals or anyth--woohoo I won lolz, let's get drunk now kekeke". | ||
