I dont understand this, its "bo7" and it has 2 rounds... if its 2 rounds its not bo7... and what if the result is tied at the end of both rounds, ace match then? and what if one team wins first round lik 6:0 and then other wins second round 4:3 is ace match still played?

Thanks

there is typo in the OP

"The more interesting of the weekend's fixtures, and certainly the most serious series you'll see in this round of the playoffs, the STX vs CJ match"

this should be "the Hite vs CJ match"

if someone already noticed , then sorry

beside that very good write-up

Until they actually get eliminated, I am confident that KHAN will repeat as PL winners, whateve Manifesto may say.

See, I find myself in an awkward position, forced to root for my fallback team (Zero, free, why are you so inconsistent? WHY?). It would be dreadful if I ended up rooting for my fallback-fallback team (STX), and so I am categorically in denial that this could possibly happen.

Thanks for pointing that out. Fixed it, and added the KHAN thread to the list.

The live streams will be posted in the Tournaments section on the right as the time of the games draws closer. Usually people either watch it online on a website or through VLC mmsh.

By the way, having now read the other "Why X will win" threads, I am forced to concede that if the outcome of the PL playoffs depended on the awesomeness of the team's hype thread, SK Telecom T1 would be the clear winners, taking a 3-4, 4-2, 1-0 win over STX. Hite obviously doesn't stand a chance.

Umm... why are there only 2 Rounds? What if one team wins one round and the other wins the other round? Will there be another round? How does it work? Someone care to explain?

It goes to a single Ace match. Yeah, I know that sucks.
