Considering it was second round of Tiebreakers and it only happened because TongFu didn't win consecutive games, I'd say it's entirely forgivable. | ||

Kills is still an indirect manner of determining which team is better. Straight up downing the throne faster is more direct. To me time rating is kind of like the penalty shootout of Dota (subpar for determing the best team but doesn't need both teams to keep playing). Then again you could go out like this: http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/31047060 | ||

like, have them play the next lowest ranked team (ie 11th in this case) whoever loses is eliminated, whichever team wins (if ever 2 teams win) they get to play each other and whichever team wins gets to advance. but that still counts on having one team lose vs the 11th ranked team as well as further hassling the 11th ranked team lol | ||

This makes the 11th ranked team play more games than they should. Why should they play more games when they're already qualified? | ||

They might try for the first game and then get bored and screw the next two games. | ||
