No one likes game advantages. They make for fucking boring finals 80% of the time.


Agreed.


Their advantage is that they don't have to play an extra set of matches like Na'Vi had to. That in itself is plenty of an advantage.

I've seen some sick FGC matches that wouldn't be possible without winner's advantage.

Plus it's called double-elimination for a reason, so that everyone can lose once and still stay in the tournament

FGC matches are very fast compared to dota and extremely momentum based. additionally valve probably prefers more games to be played anyway, but not bo7 or some kind of weird system. its kidn of dumb when WB teams just win 2-0 and its over just like that

having no winner's advantage is absolutely atrocious for alliance. i don't know what the organizers were thinking.

Clearly you haven't seen the amount of rage EVERY MLG gets when people complain about the WB advantage.

People just complain too much either way, but this is a clean slate it's better then having people whine about how B-team could have beat A-team if they didn't start 0-1.

Also, it's not like WB have no advantage, the loser brackets come off exhaustive performances and no strat analysis.
the farm ends here

It's not everything but with that aegis, mushi can revive after all the bkb is down and possible clear the whole of Navi.

DS didn't have to drop the wall too hastily too and SK was ready to pounce. Then they could go high ground and rax.

Or at least they won that fight and starve Navi. Even if they had an inferior lineup, od could still get refresher , wr can get dps items

That Aegis deny didn't cause them to lose but it certainly made it nearly impossible for them to win.
