Finals is CLG vs TSM

TSM, from winner's bracket, start out 1 SET ahead.

TSM needs to win 1 Bo3 to win IPL4.
CLG needs to win 2 Bo3s.


I don't like this format... the advantage is a little too big on top of which CLG already had to play 2 games today. They're going to be wiped by the end of it.


yeah. bo5 with 1 game advantage better imo. Double elimination finals with so much advantage real anticlimactic.

also DIS INTERVIEW.


I'll probably PM Josh and IPL guys about this. I agree that 1 set advantage is huge.

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 -_- )


great explanation, i have nothing to add.

Fucking Kpop with random english phrases thrown in is worse than the kpop with random Korean rapping.


Man, you seem to be getting more and more angry every day. I blame the high Elo.

grr i so mad


I'm sorry Dignitas lost!

CLG had to ban out Dig every game so it's k.

TBH it felt like Dig was a 1 trick pony w/ that lulusorakakog comp.

The whole point of having a super weapon (like CLG's nidalee or shen ) is that if it's banned out, that it opens out the other team comps because then you have open bans.

Because HSGG absorbs 2 bans every single fucking game (and if not it's GG) thus opening up spots for jiji and SV, and allowing CLG to do other comps.

Dig gets soraka lulu ban, which aren't even that fucking great in a whole bunch of other comps, but then still fail their open comps.

Seriously, it is. Even online, it's pretty amazing. I think these "Live reporting" threads on TL showcase it too. 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.


well that's mostly because of the size of the SC2 LR threads. If you have a thread that big it becomes a shitfest with any game.

I don't know. Everyone has been complaining about the extended series that MLG uses because it gives the winner bracket team a bigger advantage.

CLG can lose 2 games over sets and still win in standard double elim but they would lose in MLG extended bo7 or your 1 game advantage bo5. But this is more an issue with the game length since LoL games lasts ~3x longer on average than SC2 games.


The extended series discussion... Just imagine this scenario. There is no extended series. Team A faces Team B and wins 2:0. They meet later in the finals and loose 1:2.

Total score: 3:2 for Team A.

Team B won the tournament. Does that sound better?

There's truth to that for sure. Still though, this subsection of TL has a fairly decent mindset in these threads. The people who do not, learn pretty fast what is acceptable and what is not.
