By the way I feel like writing a super long article about Double Elimination because people seem to have no clue -_- I really am tired of stupid tournament organizers ruining the prestige of their tournaments.

People that say LB isn't a disadvantage in this tournament really don't understand DotA 2 at all. In the LB, you will pull any pocket strat that you have in order to not be eliminated. Revealing these pocket strats early is a massive disadvantage. Revealing such an early strat is BAD. It gives teams time to scout you out and figure out how to counter it. It's a BIG time advantage to be in the WB.

Do you understand that the winners bracket winner has the right to be forced into that position as well instead of being immediately eliminated? God, people really are dense, it's incredible.

Please go do that because your whining is ridiculous, so save us from yourself.

Yes, god forbid I want a 1.6 million tournament to be concluded fairly and want the deserving winner to win.

Not really surprised that you mostly post in the league of legends subsection. Please stop whining and watch the game.

#1 most of my posts are in sc2 LR

#2 Tournaments being fair is the most important thing to the players by far, I'm sorry that you feel differently, but maybe you wouldn't if you got wronged out of a chance to win 1 million dollars. Note that I've brought this up every single time a double elimination format has been fucked up, not only now although this is a complete disgrace nothing's ever come close to. Also I'm mostly replying to the arguments and telling them why they're incorrect, I feel that that's my right.

#3 I've got 2 screens and am watching the entire time.


BM being only lvl 4 might be a problem hmmhm he really needs lvl 6 at least, I don't think BM works that well without any farm. By the way, it's not often that I see a farming Leshrac even though I think that he's incredibly powerful, looking forward to seeing what YTH is going to be able to accomplish later on.

If you're trying to say LB isn't a disadvantage I don't think you understand how the bracket works.

I'm saying that you should give the best-performing team that "disadvantage" as well.

Let's try this.

You go steal a cookie at 1PM. The shopkeeper catches you and gives you a slap on the wrist and says "If you do this again I'll blow your head off"

However, if you go steal the cookie at 2PM the shopkeeper just walks up to you with a sawed shotgun and blows your head off.

I'm sorry, Miami Heat beating the Lakers during the regular season does not mean they deserve a 1 game lead in the finals. Simple as that. NOBODY deserves an advantage in any grand final.
Only Mickey Mouse tournaments do that

#1 Only the second set of the grand final is technically a grand final in a double elimination format, in that there is no advantage.

#2 I don't got a clue about NFL or whatever you're talking about but I doubt it was double elimination.

#3 EVO is a mickey mouse tournament.

Do you actually watch the game or are just hellbent to stir up some drama? Again. This is the LR thread not the whine about brackets after it was set since at least one week thread.

Orange fighting!

I'm watching the whole time, I can type without looking at the screen or my keyboard. Also I'm sorry but when someone's wrong I'm going to tell them they're wrong, it's pretty important to me. Derailing quite a bit but I think it's the lesser evil than enduring comments like that.

I'm not sure how it's possible that Misery has so little farm on Luna, Luna farming is Antimage BF level because of her ricochet... I understand they don't have a ton of map control but even so it feels pretty low, even Pajkatt has more farm and that definitely isn't how it should be.
