I thought that the special ace match only occurs if the set scores are tied. So it only happens if the score becomes STX 4 - 3 Khan. So STX 4-2, 4-1, or 4-0 means STX advances?

noooooooooooooooooooo

On the other hand, if this were the previous playoff format STX would already be out.

true. I just wish it was a Bo3 if they wanted to more than just 1 Bo7. Maybe take another day or 2 between 2set and 3set and make it winners league style IMO would be cooler.

If it's just game scores, without consideration of set scores, that's just really stupid then :S

How is that stupid?

It's a bo3 bo7. Except the tiebreaking bo7 is a bo1.

Even if STX won 4-0, they still lost to Khan yesterday.

Please explain the inherent stupidity? It's like this in most sporting events when they have series play.

Just think of it like in other sports, like basketball, where they only consider game scores and not the point scores in the playoffs

I think most people are having a hard time taking that suggestion seriously since only a STX fan has supported it and it would help STX in this case.

Apparently even if STX wins this 4-0 the ace match still plays. I'm not sure 100% though

Its not damned bo14 or whatever, its BO 2 with super ace match deciding the outcome if score is 1-1.
How would bo14 make sense?Its damned team league.

this is true

cmon people the format isnt THAT hard to understand

2 bo7s

if the score is tied at the end of the 2 bo7s, ie 1-1, then a single ace match is played to determine who advances.

it's stupid because the overall set score could be 7-5 (team A wins 4-0 1st day and then loses 3-4 the next day and loses super ace match) but the lower scoring team still wins. It's as if it were created so Oz can still win or something. I remember someone posted in the original thread how basically JD can win every game except for 2 and Oz still advances (wins his set, ace match, super ace match).
