Yes, this is the only way for the current formatting to make sense. If you really want to give everyone the best shot, make it a best of 7. This is essentially the same thing. | ||

I'm sorry Dignitas lost!  (Not really, both teams played pretty well. It was a good series, and CLG just came out ahead this time around) | ||

Maybe it's a bit unfair for the WB team but I don't like finals where one side goes in with such a heavy advantage. | ||

Let me explain the format to you(This is as a person who's played at least 20 double elimination tournaments with cash prizes on the line). When you lose 2 Bo3s you are knocked out. TSM has lost 0 Bo3s. CLG has lost 1 Bo3. It would actually be unfair for TSM if it was only like a 1 game advantage. That's the ways tournaments have been ruining double elimination - It's FAR too forgiving for the team that has, indeed, already lost a best of 3. I don't get what need there would be to PM them about their fair format... Two best of 3s to be eliminated, that's where the name comes from. If you don't do it like that it's not called double elimination. Again a lot of confusion comes from this because most tournaments don't seem to understand how Bo3 functions. Worst of all and the most unfair is MLG. I'm actually surprised that they're using a fair format this tournament, for once. Please don't ruin it. (Holy shit I talk in circles -_- ) | ||

Compared to the SC2 threads, there's only slight poking here, which are meant in jest(I hope). The SC2 threads though, scary place. A lot of true rage there. | ||
