I expected so much more from Na'Vi this TI, but all they have shown is Chen+naix+rubick+bountry+1 or Chen+pudge. They went for the bootcamp in China, they played in Western scene for quite some time and still i feel like im looking at casino players, either go big on red or go home. How is this a top tier play in any way? So sad. | ||

The whole idea behind double elim is that you get a second chance, you need to lose twice to get knocked out of the tournament. If you reach the grand finals through the winner bracket that means you haven't lost a game yet, so you need to lose once before you can be knocked out. The team from the losers bracket has obviously already lost once. Extended series is a whole different thing. And I understand why Valve runs it this way, but saying that it is de facto more fair to run it in a way where the team that has performed the best gets one less chance than the other team is just not true. irony is that its not even starcraft, its just fucking MLG, they did it with Halo 2. I guess thats not gonna be a problem anymore. | ||

If you talked about extended series, be clear about it. I thought it was all about double-elimination double-grand-finals | ||
