I think the real question is, if we tried our hardest and remained constantly on topic, how big can we get the new thread before the event starts?

At least 5, especially if we repost a lot of the good content from this thread

Well, the old thread technically, and more random "who wins" stuff, and... IDK we did it all here already

If we take the PL Finals thread as a basis for reasoning, we should get approx. 15 pages before the even starts (assuming the new thread gets created 24 hours before, that is Friday at 19:00 CEST)

it's turning out to be really hard to make a "most balanced bracket"
if anyone wants to have a go, here are the criteria I was going for
- TvZ, ZvP, and PvT winrates are all 50%
- fractions of T, P, Z change minimally from one round to the next (obviously, going from finals to winner, this is going to be pretty drastic, so this is more relevant for the first two rounds)
- provided the first two hold, the bracket has a minimal number of upsets

Agreed, every final, which ends with Jaedong losing, is imbalanced.

is the closest I can get. Unfortunately, terran is 2-3 against protoss. PvZ is 1-1 and ZvT is 3-3. There are 2 PvPs.

If you want to respect the third rule herO probably beats Classic though
