The 2-0 lead for PainUser is dumb. 1-0 lead maybe I could understand, but 2-0. No...just stupid

I am pretty impressed with PainUser, I always thought of him as a wannabe pro, thought last tournament was a fluke... New fan here!

How is this fair at all? You're already punished for losing: it's called loser's bracket. Why should you be behind against someone you lost to but not against someone else, who if he had played you before may have won even harder?


Because the other player hasn't lost yet? Its a double elimination tournament.


Don't use logic here, I don't think many people are capable of critical thinking in these threads.

Lots of cheese yes... but that map is soooooo zerg oriented it's not even funny. Nony gave Machine a chance by picking that map.

We've also seen players scout out that cheese earlier in the tournament and defend against it perfectly. Machine failed to do so.


Did you see a different game? Machine defended perfectly and then proceeded to build a hatchery and go all in with his army to throw away the game.
I want to be with those who share secret things or else alone.

Except that both Tyler and PainUser has lost once. Thus, they should be equal as players who are on their 2nd lives so to speak.

The only advantage should be had by the Winner of Winner Bracket because he has not lost before.

They really gotta change that format


Why? Don't want an extended series, don't lose the first match.


so funny. That's like saying: dont wanna get punched in the face? dont stand in the way of my fist.


Except it's not, since it's a double elimination tournament, and an extended series is the correct way to do it. If you don't like the double elimination format, then you're left with single elimination, which would provide a far less entertaining tournament.


The advantage of not losing in a double elimination tournament is that in the grand finals the winner bracket winner (the person that didn't drop a match) only has to win one bo3, whereas the loser bracket winner has to win two bo3 to take the finals. That should be enough of an advantage.

Not so, since PainUser was the player to take Tyler down originally.

The rule isn't really logical. Painuser beat Tyler and advanced farther in the tournament. Forget those two now. Previous results do not matter.

Tyler climbs up the losers bracket and earns a place against some unknown player yet to be knocked out. Painuser gets knocked out and plays Tyler. It's a new game. Both players earned that spot and deserve a unique beast of 3 series.

That's how I see it.

I do think extended series is bullshit. No reason for it, both players earned their place.
