If a more deep team is to win, they could do it by winning the 2 days and not having to make it come down to a superace.
Jaedong has to be a Bonjwa. Tired of of rooting for July.

tbh, there's no way to get a good format that doesn't come down to aces, so I don't care. Single Bo7? Double Bo7 with final decider? They really have the same problem - a team only "needs" two wins from non-ace players. The double bo7 does give a better shot to a "deeper" team in that it gives a chance to come back and win if the lineups screw them the first day. Not that it's happened yet... Oh, wait. CJ vs KHAN anyone?


The Double Bo7 with Super Ace doesn't give a better shot to a "deeper" team at all. It gives the team with the better Ace a better shot...

I love how people are acting like Jaedong was a sure thing vs Effort in CJ v Oz.

A way to make this format more fair imo is to make the scores aggregate. Say, for example (this is not real, lol), CJ beats MBC 4-3 on the first day, and MBC wins 4-2 on the second day, it should not come down to a super ace because MBC would win the aggregate score 7-6. However, if it is 7-7 or something, then there should be a super ace.


That's how it should be.

I'm a Jaedong/Oz fan and I voted no

Obviously it's stupid and gives Oz way more of a chance to win. It's the sad truth.

Even more emphasis on ace proficiency than a single Bo7, which I don't like at all

(Hot_Bid/Gustav have a valid point that goes right over the heads of at least a couple of you)

Not that I like a single Bo7 either. Bo3 Bo7 would work but it's so many games...

Merge both Bo7 into two halves of a Bo15 played over 2 days?

Would some teams even have the players needed for a Bo15?

i like it cuz it balances the playoff

let me explain: two-day, seven game series emphasize team depth over star players, giving teams with good overall depth more of an advantage. since the super ace comes down to one player, it makes the playoffs more balanced for teams built around one player like KT FINGERBOOM!

overall these playoffs and just this entire season has been really good
