I'll emphasize my last point again: There is no perfect format that people wont complain about. The only reason people are making a big deal out of it this time is because it's Tyler (who everybody looooves) vs Painuser (who most people are indifferent to) and the past drama w/ them in this tournament. The two involved both lost one series. It's that simple. | ||

So it doesn't make sense to know they are taken out by ground -to-ground units but not taken out by Air-to-ground units. Seems irrational to me... | ||

Lagging even if I use the VLC-player link or whatever. I'll reboot my modem and see if it helps, which I highly doubt.. | ||

Yeah, my post was not irrational garbage. I have played enough to realize they are both ground and air units, so I am not stupid in any sense. But that is what confuses me time and again. I feel sorry for them that they can be hit by everything and anything. If you are a zealot, you are pretty confident that Vikings cannot touch you from the air, but as a colossus you pretty much have to be worried about everything and as a Protoss user, you have that much to be worried about when investing in Colossi is all I am saying. | ||

Welcome to double elimination. If you don't like it, too bad. In the alternative single elimination, Tyler is already out and not given a chance to fight back at all. | ||

Without that punishment, there would be no benefit to having not lost, or to having already beaten a player. Even if you didn't have the extended series rule there's already disadvantages to losing. You have to play quite a few more matches (2 matches in the losers for every 1 in the winner's). If you want to win the grand finals you have to win 2 bo3 whereas the winner's bracket person only has to win 1. If you think those aren't enough of a disadvantage then make that your position. Don't pretend there isn't any benefit at all to winning. | ||

I challenge you to come up with a tournament structure that everybody will agree with. It's impossible. These are MLG's brackets that they run, you don't like it? Too bad, watch a different tournament that has the structure you want. Nobody is forcing people to compete in MLG, they know what they're getting into. To the other person, they did already lose a set each... except Tyler lost a set to pain.user. You might think it shouldn't matter, but plenty of people do. | ||
